Start with 1 GEV at the right as low as it will go, 1 light tank at the upper right corner. 28 GEVs on the top as far left as they can go. 1 Light tank in that last partial GEV stack. The lone GEV and the light tanks are bait. Three of the GEVs will have to take a longer path, but that's OK -- they will catch up, and you can put one in the upper left corner as bait.

With your main GEV force, move counterclockwise from one command post to the next, trying to avoid Ogres. Go ahead and take a potshot at the MB of an Ogre if it is within range, but basically you want to leave the Ogres in the dust.

Move your bait GEV down, your corner bait LT along the road, and the other bait LT left. Once an Ogre starts pursuing the bait, run, trying to lure it farther away from the action.
