This is not a requirement however, for German victory, it depends on how the territory battle has played out on the mainland.		*Sometimes this means the Allied side has been pushed back to England, and WWII Online has in the past seen the German side invading England for the win.

	While some Towns are close together, most often the distance between Towns is large enough to require the establishment of a Forward Base (FB) of operations in order to conduct a successful attack. FBs are effectively Forward Staging Points (forward spawn points) in the field represented by two military revetments (a vehicle tent and an infantry tent) that provide vehicle and troop spawning just a few kilometers outside of the CP they are attacking. Instead of using a distant army base as your staging area, FBs allow you to reduce travel time and move your supply line as close as possible to an enemy-held CP. </br>		While some Towns are close together, most often the distance between Towns is large enough to require the establishment of a Forward Base (FB) of operations in order to conduct a successful attack.

	Attacking the enemy's FB and destroying it when you are defending a CP that has been AO'd (attack objective placed on your town or city) effectively kills their attack initiative and momentum will swing towards the defenders. This will also open YOUR FB to the town or city that supplied their attack so you can bet they will be sending units out to destroy your FB and get their own back to restart their attack. This is known as "flipping FB's" or "FB ping pong".

	Once an Attack Objective is placed, the target will be vulnerable to capture after a short period of time. Initially, all [[Depot]] facilities are vulnerable. Ten minutes after any one of these facilities are captured the [[Army Base]] / [[Docks]] also become capturable. Only cities on the [[Frontline]] are candidates for an Attack Objective.
