	 First you have to gather enough resources (HR and Money) in order to be able to conquer and hold your positions.
	 This mission tries to simulate real life guerilla situations.
	 If in doubt, ask yourself what would you do in real life.
	 Don't expect to win every time. Hit and Run is the basic manoeuvre here.
	 Earn every resource, weapon and ammunition to gather enough assets in order to be a real challenge for the enemy.
	 In the meantime, disturb its operations and gain support from NATO."

Without a radio, if an AI squad-mate gets too far away, they will get lost and return to the leader's position after completing the last order they received. To avoid this, you may scavenge some radios from AAF (AS_AI_fnc_autoRearm feature will do) or let the AI use a military vehicle which has long range radios.
