Capture the Zoggin' Flag

[Secondhand Samurai]

Having some trouble with this one. Entered a siege battle and clumped my towers on the farthest wall from the enemies. Once my towers arrived I rushed (ran) all my forces to the plaza and managed a capture. Here's where I ran into my problem. I didn't realize that after the capture you had to hold it until enemy points ran out. I didn't lose the square though. The enemy would send some guys against me every thirty seconds or so but they kept thier missile troops on the wall to man the towers. I thought I had it as the timer reached about 20 points but at the tenth point the remaining enemies broke and I won. -_-

Anyone have a tip? Thanks as always.

What's the problem though, you won?
Oh you mean the achievement, well just do it again and kill them more slowly.

I've played this game for ages and still haven't received the achievement. The AI always breaks before the capturing ends. I suppose there may be some cheesy tactic to find online. If all else fails I'd imagine someone in 1v1 could help you earn it easily.

I didn't have any problem doing it, did you let the battle progress after winning, waiting for the points to reach 0, maybe it triggers the achievement even though the fighting is over.

Oddly enough, I thought of that but no sadly. I might have to go with Lethal's suggestion and have someone help in 1v1.

Just double checked the description and it must be completed in campaign, not sure how when the AI breaks at the ten point mark.

How many times did that happen :P, if it's only been once you can't say it's impossible.
And it's possible there's a mod out there that reduces the amount of points needed to it's faster and therefore makes it easier to cap before the enemy quits.

Never said it was impossible, I just wanted to be sure that the enemy quitting was suppose to happen and that I hadn't missed some other step or like I'd killed too many of them.

Fairly sure retreating isn't due to the imminent flag capture, should just be a coincidence with the speed of killing their army.

I just got the achievement and i think the best way is attacking a settlement with steam tanks defending it, because those can't broke
