Expelling the Imperial

Need help with the Expelling the Imperial side mission in Final Fantasy Type-0 HD? Follow our expert guide to S-rank the mission and capture Rokol and Limbo.

Alright, let's tackle the 'Expelling the Imperial' expert trial. This one pops up during Free Time 3.2, and they suggest you're around level 36. It's a bit of a multi-stage mission where you'll be capturing two key locations: Rokol and Limbo. Getting an S-rank here means finishing within 21:00, defeating 8 enemies, and not losing any troops.

Capturing Rokol

You'll start the battle with Domain 1 under heavy attack. Your first priority is to head there immediately and clear out the enemies, especially that Carrier. While you're fending them off, keep an eye on the timer. Once it hits zero, your troops will start spawning from Domain 1, which is your cue to shift focus. Look for the Autoturret perched on the plateau nearby and take it out. A ranged character like Trey would be perfect for this from the ground.

Once that's done and you've secured Domain 1, you'll gain control of troops for both Domain 1 and 2. Here's the key strategy: direct Domain 2's troops to attack Rokol directly, but leave Domain 1's troops be for now. This coordinated push should be enough to break down Rokol's energy wall, opening it up for you to invade the town.

As you push into Rokol, expect a few encounters. The first area will have Imperial Troopers, a Striker, and Shock Troopers. Move into the second area, and you'll face an enemy commander along with some Heavy Gunners. The third area ramps it up with a Striker Transport, more Imperial Troopers, and another enemy commander (this one's a Supersoldier). The final area has one last commander trying to make a run for it. Chase him down, and you'll face more Imperial Troopers and a Prometheus. Defeat the Prometheus, and Rokol is yours! You'll then be returned to the overworld map.

Capturing Limbo

No sooner do you get back to the overworld map than two Mid-Sized Carriers emerge from Limbo and head for your towns. You need to intercept and destroy them quickly. After that, focus on taking control of Domain 3. From there, your next task is to push through the Colossi guarding Limbo to get your troops to the stronghold. Once your troops are in position, they'll bring down Limbo's energy wall. Now you can invade!

Inside Limbo, the first area is crawling with Nymurods and Imperial Troopers. Be super careful around the fuel tanks near the compound wall – they look like they could cause some trouble. Once you've cleared out all the enemies, the gate to the final area will open. It might look empty at first, but don't let your guard down. A lone enemy commander (a Supersoldier) will pop out. Take him down, and Limbo is officially captured, ending the mission.
