Call out to get some volunteers to flank the artillery.

I'm assuming we can't get our own fire support, since we were dropped with just infantry.

Request fire support.

Call out and report the tanks over the comm. Officer calls for air strike or similar. Obviously we don't have the authority to do it ourself but if everyone knows where the tanks are someone will come to help.

Also: Scrounge for AT in the meantime while we're rallying a team to hit the artillery.

There are no tanks, thus far it's artillery and (possibly) hordes of infantry getting ready to meet us.

Do you really think they only had one tank? We should be prepared for the next time we run into one.

True but isn't the enemy infantry charge more urgent?

If a tank showed up then that would be more urgent. It's not like the rest of the Hawks aren't shooting at the infantry.

+1 to this. One or two tanks could be enough to wipe out most of our assault.

You stand up and regain your senses as the ground about you shakes from the explosions. Through the smoke, you see a pair of Hawks blindly firing in the direction of the enemy. You lock eyes with one of them, and signal for them to follow you. You sprint through the battle to the right, trying to get out of the kill zone. Another Hawk sees your group and follows you over the crest of a hill to the right. Once your little team is over the hill, you brief them on the plan.

"Alright guys, we need to take out the artillery. This whole invasion is fucked if the Hawks can't even drop." you say, and get out your map. "Alright, we could either try to go all the way around the enemy force, avoiding contact, but we might not be able to get to the artillery position early enough. Our other option is to just try to sneak through the enemy counterattack, and risk getting pinned down."

Second option: Blood for the Blood GOD

EDIT: Actually let's just hit the guns. We'll worry about our comrades later.

Go around the enemy force and take out the artillery.

It doesn't matter if we don't get to it quick enough. It's better we take it down now and not have to worry later, than to leave it and risk getting blown to bits on the exfil.

You decide that it would be better to try to navigate around the bulk of the enemy force than to head straight through. You only hope that you can take out the guns before the dropped Hawks are entirely destroyed. You keep low as you cross around the counterattacking enemies, avoiding contact. Eventually you get out of sight of them, and arrive at a small mining village near the enemy stronghold. The enemies have the artillery set up on the far end of the village, still firing (which you take as a sign that the Hawks are still holding). The village seems to be clear of enemies, but it could be a trap. There is ample cover in the village, but attacking from elsewhere would leave you in the open.

"Alright boys lets silence the guns and head back, ready? GO!"

Move through the village and have our grenades readied for tossing to the artillery.
