Secure the LS/26 Support class LMG in a new Weekly Challenge by playing Squad Conquest. This week’s Tides of War Chapter 3 Storyline focuses on the return of Squad Conquest, our 8v8 variation of Conquest. The Tides of War Storyline nodes will matchmake you into any Squad Conquest map, except where specifically noted\*. For more info on Squad Conquest, check out our[Squad Conquest Returns to Battlefield V blog](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/squad-conquest-returns-to-battlefield-v/106889). Complete this Week’s Storyline and you’ll be rewarded with the Lahti-Saloranta M26, a Support Class LMG. Battlefield V brings the standard LS/26 with the 20 round capacity magazine. “The Lahti-Saloranta M26 was a Finnish firearm used during World War II with optional ammo storage - a regular magazine or a drum. Nicknamed “Assorted Mistakes”, it was a relatively heavy LMG, hard to clean due to its 188 parts, and low ammo capacity. However, in the hands of a proficient gunner, it was exceptionally accurate.” [Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lahti-Saloranta_M/26) ![image](https://battlefieldforum.co/uploads/default/original/3X/5/7/57b5a8659ef72ab94b997b63b0da77312d8861d4.jpeg) Let’s look at the tasks.

Can we instead see unlocks behind 10 tasks that relate to playing the objective? Just played a game where two players are sitting in the spawn using AP mines to blow each other up to revive each other while we are outnumbered and losing. Kudos to them for cheesing the unlock, but I’d rather see no tasks like this that result in a lack of PTFO. ---

Kudos to them for cheesing the unlock, but I’d rather see no tasks like this that result in a lack of PTFO. The worst part of this example is that its eminently achievable just by playing the game as normal. People who do this sort of thing are really dumb. ---

The weekly assignments are way too easy and very little challenge. I would welcome something a bit harder. I actually enjoyed the Tank challenge. I got the LS/26 in about 3 games of Frontlines. ---

I reckon it’ll take me 1-3 rounds for those though as they all seem to be ‘in a squad’ so in theory should go quickly. You’re beating me in chapter XP (34) so I’ll cheese the CA ones probably haha. ---

Exactly what I went with. I still struggle a bit with the recoil but better players than me should have no real problems. IMO anyway.
