so, this run obviously isn't perfect. this is by far my least favorite mission in the campaign - you're simply running units to the end and hoping for good luck with a bunch of dialogue skips along the way. there's ways to manipulate the AI but it's very hard to consistently do and is extremely frustrating. i only wanted to submit something that ties or beats Freezard's IGT, and this ties it but is technically slightly better because the IGT slightly increases each time I do a save/load as opposed to Freezard's way of doing dialogue skips which completely freezes IGT

i'm happy enough with this to submit it and maybe i'll do more runs in the future to get a truly flawless run. but today is not that day
