Operation: Onyx is a PvE mission in Armored Warfare.
Briefing[]
"October 18, 2034. Cartel forces blew out the tunnel and derailed the train. Don't let them steal the supplies on board while the ISD tries to get everything back on track."
Primary Objective[]
Defend the End Train Section[]
Defend the first control point at B4 for 4 minutes.
Defend the Center Train Section[]
Defend the second control point at E5 for 5 minutes.
Defend the Front Train Section[]
Defend the third and last control point at I5 for 6 minutes.
Secondary Objective[]
Destroy Enemy SATCOM Trucks[]
Players have 9 minutes to destroy five stationary targets whose positions are indicated on the minimap.
Strategy[]
The initial wave of enemies converge towards the first control point from the west at C3, east at C6, as well as south from D4. Defend from the northern slopes, or head south and defend from the east of the control point while be wary of occasional enemies spawning near the eastern border of the map, then move westwards to finish off any remaining vehicles blocked by cover or terrain.
Most enemies attacking the second control point come from the west at F3 and from the east at F6. Anticipate the assault by defending in positions north of the control point, then move out to finish off any remaining vehicles in the second wave.
The last control point will be attacked from east and west, with enemies spawning from beyond the border at I3, J3, J5, and I6. The final wave also includes lieutenant vehicles that will spawn from the south. Players with armored vehicles can go point-blank and block enemy capture by taking cover behind the rock on the control point, or take cover behind the rock just east of the control point in hull-down position. Lighter vehicles can take position on the hill at H6 to snipe enemies incoming from the south and from the higher positions, but they will be unable to shoot those behind cover on the dried out river. Alternatively, players can also consider positioning themselves to the west at I3 to flank attacking enemies, but this position is exposed to enemy fire if spotted, especially by enemies passing by from the south or by lieutenants.
Rewards[]
Onyx has a x3.3 
Experience multiplier and base x10 
Credits multiplier for completing the mission. The latter can be boosted to x15 if secondary objective is complete.
