Codebreaker Challenge #1
Welcome to the first Codebreaker Challenge!
In this first KARDS puzzle, we challenge you to solve a difficult battlefield situation. You need to carefully inspect the battlefield, weigh your options and then come up with a sequence of winning moves.
You can post your proposed solution in the comments below. Let us know how you liked this puzzle and if you want to see some more (maybe of different difficulty?).
This puzzle was created by Gearbot, the current KARDS World Champion.
So, without further ado let's head over to the briefing!

The situation is looking grim: Your HQ is almost destroyed, and the enemy has superior units on the battlefield. To make things worse, your enemy’s HQ is a well-secured fortress and immune to your attacks right now.
Your only hope is to use fresh reinforcements and to outsmart your enemy. Do you have what it needs to be a military genius?
It is your turn and you have 14 Kredits available.
Your mission: Win this turn! The enemy HQ must be destroyed before your turn is over!
