Version 1
After four long, hard days of writing, I've finally completely finished the
guide for all of the missions in Call of Duty 2. It probably took me 20-30
hours to finish, but that did include playing through each of the missions as
I wrote the guide for them. I've also spellchecked it and corrected all of the
typo's (which weren't too bad considering there's a good 28,000 words in this
guide), so it should be pretty useful for anyone who's stuck.
I think I need a break from writing now, so I'll go and play through single
player for the third time without needing to pause every few seconds to write
more of the guide. I hope the guide is useful for everyone. It's definitely the
most work I've ever put into my video game walkthroughs. Each mission
walkthrough has an evrage of about 900 words, which is pretty incredible
compared to the 300 or so my CoD1 missions had.
Anyway, enough chatter, hope you find the guide useful, and dont forget to
email me with any tips, questions or errors you've found.

Call Of Duty 2 is the next game in the amazing Call Of Duty series which covers
almost every major battle of World War Two. There are a few new features in
CoD2 which you'll probably need to be made aware of, they are listed below.
The game functions in almost the exact same way as the original Call Of Duty,
so if you've played that, you won't have any trouble getting used to this one.
• New Health System
Call Of Duty 2 doesn't keep the health system from the original games. Instead
of having a set value of health which you will lose or replenish with health
packs, this time you have no indication of your current health. This may seem
strange at first, however once you get used to it, it's really quite simple. To
put it in it's most basic form, you have "infinite health". You won't die by
getting shot multiple times, even without picking up health packs. Instead, you
die from taking a lot of damage in a small amount of time. When you get hit
hard, an indicator will appear on the screen, and you'll feel your heart rate
increasing and so on. During this time you need to find some cover and rest.
Stay safe for about five seconds or so and you'll regain your health and be
good to go. Because of this, you could take hundreds of hits throughout
missions, but if you stay in cover and heal yourself enough, you can make it
through without dying. Not really the most realistic feature that could have
been added, but it certainly changes the way you need to play the game. Running
and gunning will usually easily get you killed. You need to go slowly.
• Mantle System
CoD2 gives you the option to jump over / onto small obstacles in front of you
in a sort of scripted event. Sometimes you can't jump high enough, or the game
just won't let you jump over certain things, but if you stand next to an object
and you see a small curved arrow symbol type thing, then pushing the jump key
will allow you to climb over it.
• Grenade Indicator
When an enemy, or even an allied grenade is thrown near you, an indicator will
appear on the screen showing you which direction it's located in. Always make
sure you find cover in the opposite direction of the arrow unless you want to
be blown up.
• Ammo Display
Along with many of the on screen displays, the ammo display will fade after a
few seconds if you're not using your gun. To see how much ammo you have in your
gun and to bring up the display, simply press the reload button.
• Compass
When you spot an enemy, or your squad mates shout out where one is, a red dot
will appear on your compass showing the location of the enemy soldier. This is
useful if you're being shot at and don't know where from.
PLEASE NOTE:
Due to the way Call of Duty 2 has been made, without as many linear approaches
to missions, for the most part it will depend on how you play through the
mission as to how well the guide will work for you. I can't go into a lot of
detail about each section of each mission because as I stated before, the way
the AI and the game has been designed, things can and do change depending on
the players choices. I'll give a basic run down of each mission, which should
be able to help enough in those tricky situations. I finished the game on
Veteran before writing this guide, so I'm aware of exactly where the hard
parts of the game are, and the best way of getting past them. If the guide is
based on Veteran, then it can only be easier for the other difficulties.
ALSO NOTE:
There is a section in the guide explaining which weapons you get for each
mission. These generally vary depending on which weapons you had at the end of
the previous mission. The only way I was able to get the exact weapons everyone
would have was to use the "Restart Mission" option in game. When you use this,
you'll start the mission with default weapons. Please do not email me informing
me that the weapons are wrong, it's another non-linear feature that has been
included by Infinity Ward.

Level 1: Red Army Training
=============
D E T A I L S
=============
"Red Army Training"
U.S.S.R.
Dec 17, 1941
20 miles west of Moscow
===============================
S T A R T I N G W E A P O N S
===============================
• None
===================
O B J E C T I V E S
===================
• Walk over to the table by Commissar Letlev.
• Go the storeroom and obtain a pistol and a rifle.
• Report to Commissar Letlev.
• Shoot the two teddy bears.
• Shoot the bottles and plates.
• Shoot the bottles and plates while aiming down the sight.
• Shoot as many helmets as you can in 15 seconds.
• Melee Attack the mannequin with your weapon.
• Throw potatoes at the marked targets.
• Follow the Commissar.
• Make your way to the armory.
• Pick up a sub-machine gun, and both frag and smoke grenades.
• Climb the ladder.
• Throw a smoke grenade to cross the street safely.
• Wait for the smoke to fill the intersection.
• Plant your explosives on the Panzerwerfer.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
From the start of the mission, drop down off the truck and make a dash for the
weapons on the table. No matter how fast you get there, you'll be muscled out
of a rifle by the other soldiers so Commissar Letlev will tell you to grab a
pistol and rifle from the storeroom. Head down the trench and into the building
on the right, where you'll find your weapons on the table by the window. Pick
them up and head back through the building and trench to meet up with Letlev
once more. He'll tell you to turn around and shoot the teddy bears, so using
either your pistol, or rifle, fire a shot into each of the helpless bears.
After that he'll tell you to walk up to the shooting range and shoot the glass
bottles. I'd say use your pistol for this, however it doesn't make much
difference. Keep shooting until he's satisfied, then you'll be given a new
objective. This time you've got to shoot as many German helmets as possible in
fifteen seconds. It doesn't make any difference how many you actually get,
even if you don't fire a shot, after the fifteen seconds the objective will be
cleared for you.
Next up is grenade training, or rather, potato throwing. Grab up some potatoes
from the box, and using your grenade button, throw them into the bath tub, the
upper window and the lower doorway. After you've made the shots you'll be
interrupted by a soldier telling the Commissar that you've captured a prisoner.
Follow Letlev down the trench into the store room, where the German will inform
you that a German attack is heading straight for you. The Commissar wants you
to deal with it, so this is your on-the-job training.
Head out through the doorway and go through the buildings on the right. Mantle
over the wall when you're told, crouch under the doorway and then enter the
trench. Keep low as you move along it, and go prone to get under the obstacle.
Keep going until you reach the armory, and swap your pistol for a PPSh as well
as grabbing up some grenades and smoke grenades, and make sure to reload your
weapons. Head up the ladder and throw a smoke grenade into the middle of the
street. Give it about ten to fifteen seconds to fill the street, then move
across and meet up with your squad in the opposite building. Help them dispose
of the Germans who come out of the half-track, and take cover, leaning out and
looking up the street to the right.
There are about four Germans behind various objects at the top of the street,
using grenades to flush them out, pick them off with a rifle or your PPSh. Once
they're all gone, be ready to take out an MG42 gunner in the building to the
right. After he's been killed, you'll spot the Panzerwerfer, so follow your
squad around the corner and prepare to engage about five more Germans, mainly
situated on the top floor of the broken building to the left. Try to get a
grenade in there, or just stay in cover and pick them off when they expose
themselves, then move up to the top floor and clear up with a PPSh.
There'll be a few Germans in the building just below you, so fire through the
windows and take them out, then prepare to move into a heavily defended area.
As you move past the building you'll see about seven or eight Germans behind
the sand bags, try to get a grenade in there, or shoot the red barrels. This
should take out most, if not all of them. From here, move into the larger area
where the Panzerwerfer is situated. You'll notice probably four Germans waiting
around this area to fight you, so my advice is to throw a smoke grenade into
the middle, let it fill up with smoke, then run down the left hand side with a
PPSh taking out any enemies you can see, and plant the bomb on the front of the
tank. Keep out of the way as it explodes, and you'll pass the mission after a
short debriefing.

Level 2: Demolition
=============
D E T A I L S
=============
"Demolition"
Stalingrad, U.S.S.R.
December 2, 1942
Three blocks north of Solechnaya St.
===============================
S T A R T I N G W E A P O N S
===============================
• Tokarev SVT40
• PPSh
• 4 Smoke Grenades
• 4 Fragmentation Grenades
===================
O B J E C T I V E S
===================
• Rendezvous with the defensive line at Solechnaya St.
• Repulse the German attack.
• Clear out the German hardpoint on the far side of the intersection.
• Report to Lt. Leonov.
• Obtain explosives from the engineer.
• Plant explosives throughout the building.
• Get to a safe distance.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Make your way out of the starting room, and head along the corridor to the
right. Stop just before you go around the corner and lean out. There'll be a
number of Germans in this area. There should be one to the right behind a
pillar, a few directly in front of you as you turn the corner, and a few
Germans to the left. Use grenades or your guns to take out as many as you can,
then try to move into the building. As you get in, the Germans will fall back
and take cover behind the walls outside, so head to the window and begin firing
at any heads you see pop up.
Keep shooting until you've cleared out most of the Germans in between the two
rows of buildings, then carefully make your way across the area into the German
buildings. I'd suggest keeping to the left as you cross to avoid any fire from
Germans who are still alive. Move into their left-most building, ensuring that
it's safe to do so, then proceed along the small corridor. There'll probably be
two Germans who run out to greet you, so dispose of them, then move through the
door on the right and take out as many enemies as you can. You've just flanked
them, so most of them are facing the wrong way. A few short sprays of your PPSh
should be enough to take them out.
Continue through the two blown out walls at the back of the room, and make your
way down stairs. Move out, along the trench keeping low until you reach the two
soldiers in the middle. You'll be told to get down as there's tanks going over
head, so make sure you're crouched and wait for them to pass. After that, just
make your way to the other end of the trench. Once you get there, head up the
stairs to the right and choose either the left or right room for your cover.
Grab the Scoped Mosin-Nagant if you'd like a sniper rifle for the battle ahead,
or just stick with your SVT-40. Wait by the windows in position as the Germans
start their counter attack.
Shoot at the charging Germans, and try to take out as many as you can. I
believe they'll keep coming in waves, so try to take out as many of the first
wave as possible, then make a run through the trenches to the next building.
You'll now be told to clear out the German hardpoint. Move up to the fence and
pick off any enemies who look to be a threat, then make your way alongside the
wall all the way to the right. Follow the path alongside the wall up and to the
end, and you should be getting close to grenade throwing distance of the German
MG42 gunners. Keep to the right and move in towards the German building using
your grenades to take out the majority of infantry. Once you get close enough
switch to an automatic weapon such as your PPSh and move in through the
right-most window. Pick off any enemy soldiers in here who remain, then go
through the door on the right. Be extremely careful as you move through though,
as there could well be five Germans waiting for you. Move out carefully, and
depending on what you see, decide whether to use grenades to help you move in.
Keep up the fire and take out however many Germans are blocking that entrance,
then move through the room and clear out that end.
Once all of the Germans down there are dead, you'll be told to meet Lieutenant
Leonov who will tell you that you're gonna blow the building to hell. Head
back downstairs and meet up with the engineer, who will give you explosives to
use on the main supports for the building. Make your way back through the
downstairs rooms, looking for yellow flashing bomb icons, and plant your bombs
there. Watch out for the Germans shooting through the floor from above, and
once all of the bomb are planted, get out of there and move back into cover,
then watch the explosion which will bring about the end of the first campaign.

Level 1: The Diversionary Raid

October 29, 1942
25 miles south of El Alamein

• 4 Smoke Grenades

===================
• Neutralize the enemy hard points.
• Rendezvous with Captain Price near the depot.
• Destroy the ammo stockpiles.
• Destroy the fuel barrels.
• Search the bunker for enemy documents.
• Rendezvous with Captain Price at the rally point.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Head down the hill and immediately start shooting at the four Germans to the
left. Kill them all, then move off to the right and along the trenches. Be
prepared for a pretty large firefight just around the corner. You'll need to
take out about ten Germans who are all over the area, behind crates, barrels
and even up above you. You might need to use a few grenades here, as well as
falling back and taking cover whenever one comes your way. Keep working your
way forward and trying to pick them off.
Once they're all gone, keep going through the trenches to the right and kill
another few Germans down here, then move up next to the flak gun and down the
other side. As you approach the bunker entrance two Germans will rush out, so
help your team dispose of them, then quickly but carefully move into the
bunker. Keep crouched and take out the German who will be heading out, then
move into the actual bunker carefully and eliminate two or three Germans behind
obstacles to the left, and the one on the MG42 to the right. Once that's all
clear, continue along the trenches with your squad.
Take out the few Germans just around the corner, then move up towards the next
hardpoint and murder the two Germans manning the machine gun from behind. After
that, head back along the trench and make your way to the left. Just around the
corner to the left are a few Germans, so take them out before they retreat,
then to the right in the bunker is another, so kill him too. Move along the
trench to the left, but fall back as soon as you see the first grenade fly
over. Once all three or so blow up, move through slowly, and prepare to kill
the four Germans around here.
Move down into the bunker and quickly waste the two Germans in here before
running back out, in cover of the two grenades which will usually fall through
the roof. After they've blown, you need to risk your life and climb up the
ladder, quickly turning around to kill any Germans up there, and then the two
defending the last hardpoint. One you've successfully disposed of them all,
drop back down and meet back up with your squad.
You've got to meet up with Captain Price, so head back along the trench, and
through the newly cleared trench in front of the bunker from before. Kill three
or four Germans around here, then proceed to help Price's boys wipe out the big
collection of enemies in this area. Take out the few to the right, then
concentrate on the six or seven across the road behind the sand bags.
Afterwards, Price will tell you to destroy the Germans ammo stockpiles and fuel
barrels. I'd suggest going around the far side of the building in front of you
and shooting all of the red barrels you can see. Take out any Germans who are
close, then make a dash into the bunker type thing and plant your bomb on the
ammo before running the hell out of there. Take some cover from the Germans who
will most likely be coming after you now, then take out as many as you can if
you get a chance, and move towards the next bunker. Keep behind the sand to the
left and sneak up behind the bunker watching out for the mines. Move along to
the far side where you should be able to take out the last two fuel barrels
and a big selection of Germans. Once the area is pretty clear, run down into
the bunker and plant the bomb, then run back around the back of the bunker
for cover as it blows. Throw a few grenades at any remaining Germans before
running into the final bunker and planting the bomb. Once they've all been
destroyed, follow Price to a doorway at the top of the area.
Once it's been blown, head through the door and take out the Germans to the
left, then follow the trench around killing the five or so Germans hidden
behind crates. After MacGregor's hilarious "We don't have time to collect a
load of stupid maps!" quote, you'll need to move into the extremely heavily
defended bunker and clear it out. When I say extremely, I mean extremely.
There's got to be a good ten or so soldiers in here. Carefully make your way
to the port holes and throw a grenade through each one, then a few through the
main doorway. If you were lucky, this will have taken out most of them. Just
move in slowly with your Thompson and pick off any Germans who remain.
Move into the next room where there should be one more German behind some beds,
then grab the documents from the table and head back to Price. Meet up in front
of the Bren Carrier to complete the first British mission.

=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Quickly jump off the truck and kill any Germans who are in the close area, then
jump into the trench close-by and get on the MG42. Use it to kill any Germans,
particularly the ones coming in the halftracks. After you've killed the two
halftracks you'll see probably thirty Germans running down the hill to the
South. Keep pouring it on them and take out as many as you can. A few seconds
later the ones you missed will come over the hill, so kill them, then you'll
see another halftrack on it's way. Shoot at it, but you'll most likely be told
to head over to the West flank and stop the Germans who are breaking through.
Head through the town, alongside the wall and make your way across towards the
flak gun. Try as hard as you can to get to it, and then get on it and use it to
help you repel the enemy forces. It's extremely slow reloading, and the blast
radius isn't really anything special, but it'll give you cover, and allow you
to at least slow down the Germans, if not kill them.
Once all of the smoke clears, you'll see another thirty or so Germans moving in
from the South West. Turn the flak gun and use that to take out some, however
you won't get many before they disappear behind the rocks. After a few more
seconds of firing, you'll be informed of more Germans to the North, so make
your way through the town and commandeer the MG42 from your fellow squad mate.
Use it to destroy the large selection of Germans moving in.
Keep up the fire, and you'll see a halftrack move in from the left. Ignore it,
another wave of Germans will come over the hill, so wipe them out instead.
After that you'll be told you need artillery support, so make your way across
to the other side of the town, and enter one of the only buildings you can get
in, then use the ladder to make your way onto the roof.
Once you've made it to the roof, bring up your binoculars and look to the
South. Ignore all of the ground troops moving in, and wait until you see two
shiny grey Panzer tanks moving in. Aim right at the tank, and assuming it
doesn't move, calling the artillery will take it out. There's two to destroy
though, so as soon as your artillery has recharged, fire at the other tank.
As long as you keep firing, you shouldn't come under much fire, but the tanks
can and will shoot out the sandbags around the roof, removing your cover.
Also be aware of sneaky Germans who will climb up the ladder behind you,
however your squad should take them out before you have to worry about them.
Tanks will then move in from the South-West. Wait for them to come to a stop,
and call your artillery right on top of both of them. More tanks will then come
in from the North. Once again, wait for it to come to a stop on the hill before
calling in for artillery and watch it go boom. There'll be another tank further
to the right, at the North than the last one, and just as you call for
artillery on that one, another will make it's way towards you. Wait for it to
stop, and blow it to hell. Once it's gone, just wait for the friendlies to move
in from the North East and it's mission complete.

Immediately from the start of the mission, run forward and crouch behind the
tank. Don't touch it though, as it seems to stop if you're touching the back,
so just use it for cover and keep moving in behind. Once you get to the
trenches kill any Germans in the left ones and then move down the tunnel.
You'll encounter probably four Germans as you move through, all of whom are
behind various crates, but shouldn't be a problem to take out. Move through at
the end of the tunnel and drop down into the trench, watching out for two
Germans to the left.
Keep in the trench until the artillery barrage stops firing, then move down it
and meet up with the tank. Use it for cover as it moves diagonally across to
the left, staying on it's left side until it literally goes over the barbed
wire fence. Stay out of it's way or it'll run you into the sand though. From
the top of the hill you should be at, use your Scoped Lee-Enfield to pick off
any Germans in the trenches right in front of you, then move in and along them.
Go through the tunnel and then kill the two German on the other side. Another
German will come out of the bunker to the right, so waste him, but don't go
running into the bunker yet. There's an MG42 gunner looking right up the steps
you're going to come down. You could try to shoot him through the port hole,
however that chimney type thing to the right is there for a reason. It's tricky
to do, but bounce a grenade off the underside of the chimney and get it to drop
through the hole. It'll blow up some explosive barrels and make mince meat out
of everyone inside. Then you can move in safely.
Drop down the ladder and then proceed through the rooms down stairs killing the
three or four Germans around here. Before heading out along the tunnel, get on
the MG42 placed there, because three Germans will attempt to make their way
towards you, so you can greet them with bullets and move out safely.
As you get out of the far end, you'll be right at a Flak gun emplacement. You
can try to shoot them, however getting a grenade right next to the 88 seems to
be the best way of dealing with them. Either way, once they're gone you'll have
secured the first gun, so head on down the trench towards the next one. You'll
need to assist Price in killing two or three Germans on MG42's, but the next
small bunker is clear, so move through quickly. Head to the right and move
through the trenches, taking out three or so Germans who'll be on their way
around the corner.
Continue into the bunker, and throw a grenade at the Flak 88 crew. Don't give
them a chance to throw it back though, spray your Thompson at them and then
wait until they blow up. Once it all seems clear, move into the bunker and head
to the table at the right hand side of the Flak gun. Notice the health pack
easter egg? Now no one can complain about there being no health packs in the
new damage system. Anyway, continue through the bunker rooms on the left and
make your way along the deserted tunnel before keeping low in the trench.
You need to make your way across this area to the right, where the MG fire is
coming from. Officially, you're supposed to stick with the tanks, the first of
which will be blown up, however you can just throw a smoke grenade as far as
you can towards the MG42 gunners to the right, and run across without much
resistance. Take cover behind some rocks and take out the gunners before moving
into the trench. Kill any remaining Germans here, and any through the tunnel,
then move along the trench to the left. Don't worry about the right Flak gun,
a tank will rip through it.
This area is pretty well defended, but luckily you have a sizeable squad with
you. Throw a grenade at the Flak gun, and at the four Germans by the barrels
below you, then take cover. Your squad mates should move in and take the
majority of them out after throwing smoke grenades for concealment. Move in and
clean out any last Germans by the 88, then continue along the trench towards
the last gun taking out the few Germans who lie in wait behind crates on the
way. Use grenades to help you wipe out the final Germans at the flak gun, then
move in and secure it.
Head back along the trench, and Captain Price will plant explosives on the door
and blow it down. Once he's planted the bomb, move pretty far away as it'll
kill you. Once it's blown, move through the smoke and down the stairs, where
you should be expecting a decent selection of Germans. Shoot a few with your
Thompson, then use grenades to keep the others busy. Constantly move back and
take cover and keep fighting for as long as it takes to kill the six or seven
Germans down here.
Head through the trenches until you reach a small set of buildings. Use your
sniper rifle to pick off any Germans on the rooftop, then using smoke for
concealment run like hell towards the right building. Find the doorway and get
in before the German reinforcements arrive. Move upstairs and go in the first
room on the right, killing the German waiting for you. Move outside and up to
the roof where there should be one more German. You can then look out of the
windows and pick off any Germans below until Price tells you to find a radio.
It's in that room on the right at the top of the stairs, so move in and send
the message to Monty for mission completion.

Level 4: The End Of The Beginning
=============
D E T A I L S
=============
"The End of the Beginning"
El Daba, Egypt
November 6, 1942
Near the Mediterranean coast
===============================
S T A R T I N G W E A P O N S
===============================
• Lee-Enfield
• Thompson
• 4 Frag Grenades
• 4 Smoke Grenades
===================
O B J E C T I V E S
===================
• Eliminate the German naval artillery crews at the docks.
• Signal the fleet from the com station radio.
• Search the German HQ for printed dispatches.
• Regroup at the docks to debrief with Cpt. Price.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Following the short truck ride into the city, immediately jump off the back or
sides of the vehicle and take cover from the MG42 fire coming from the windows
up ahead.
Once you've caught your breath, run across in front of the MG's and take cover
behind the building on the right. Follow your squad around to the right hand
side and head towards the other end of the street. You'll come across about ten
Germans behind some sandbags and barrels at the far wall. Take cover behind any
of the objects scattered around and use your Lee-Enfield to carefully pick them
off one by one. After you kill the first three or four, another five or so will
rush down from a room at the end of the street and take up their positions. Try
to move in a bit closer, get a grenade in their location and then move in with
your Thompson and clear it out.
Take cover behind the sandbags where the Germans were and carefully lean around
the boxes and look to the right. You'll see two or three Germans by the MG42 on
the floor just around the corner alongside the center building, and two or
three others behind the wall at the other end of the street. There'll also be
one German on the balcony next to the window MG gunner. Help your squad take
them out and then proceed towards the open building right below the window MG42
gunners. As you reach it, one of your team mates will take out the gunner.
Head through the first room and along the small corridor. Carefully lean out of
the doorway and prepare to shoot at a proned MG42 gunner lying directly in
front of you. Take him out then you'll see two more Germans, one on each side
of him. They'll most likely throw grenades as you, so retreat back to the other
end of the corridor until they explode, then lean back out the door and pick
them off.
Head through the alleyways and stop as you reach a corner with a view of the
ocean. The German artillery can be found here, along with a large number of
their soldiers. Let your squad catch up with you, then start shooting at the
Germans manning the Flak guns. Be aware of the riflemen on the roof and on the
balconies to the right and ensure you take them out before they do likewise.
Once you've cleared the first Flak, move up to the right and take cover against
the corner, behind the stack of crates. Lean out and fire off a few rifle shots
at the many Germans in the distance. Try shooting the red barrels which will
explode taking out a few of them at once. Keep up the fire and help your squad
pick off every last German. Once they appear to be all gone, move up and along
the dock area. As you get towards the end one of your team mates will shout out
to throw some smoke, don't worry, someone else will take care of it for you,
but you may need to get your rifle and aim at the MG42 gunner on the roof of
the German building. Once he's been taken care of, move along to the end of the
area and go through the opening on the right. Depending how quickly you've
gotten this far, there may or may not be Germans waiting for you. Either way
you're going to have to kill them. There might be one or two coming through the
opening as you get there, one just inside to the left, or possibly two to the
right of the opening, maybe with a planted MG42 on a table.
If you got there a bit faster, the Germans probably won't have gotten into
positions yet, so quickly rush in and keep to the right. Head around the far
corner of the building with the two tunnel type things, straight ahead of your
entrance to the area, and you might have a nice surprise with four or so
Germans heading straight for you. Make sure you've got an auto and spray them
until they're all gone, then make your way towards the main German building.
Enter the bottom floor and make your way to the right into the small back room.
Depending on how long your squad have been fighting the Germans, there may be
one or two still alive down here, so be careful and if you see any, take them
out. As you approach the stairs another German will make his way down, but you
should have no problem taking care of him with a Thompson. Head up the stairs
and around, ensuring there are no more enemies left alive, then use the radio
as your squad marks the target with smoke and watch the fireworks.
After that, head back downstairs and make your way back past the "tunnel
building". You'll find members of your squad pinned down by MG42 gunners. Feel
free to try and take them out with your rifle, however from what I've seen,
they'll just keep on respawning anyway. Head through the gate to the left of
the area and watch as one of your squad mates gets splattered by a good few
hundred German bullets. Just after the last bit of door comes flying off,
crouch down and lean / strafe into the doorway with a Thompson or another fully
automatic weapon. Spray the three Germans in there before they realise you're
attempting to come in. There'll usually be two to the left, and a guy on an
MG42 at the back of the room, in-line with the entrance.
After disposing of them, continue through the back alleyway and head up the
steps into the next room. There'll be two Germans in here, one of which should
be easy to kill, the other will be around the corner and will be preparing to
throw a grenade at you. Do whatever you need to do to take out these two
Germans then carefully make your way to the blown out wall. Below you are two
Germans on MG42's, but you also have three Germans in the building opposite,
one on the roof of the building just left of that, and one or two on the
balcony of the building to the left of yours. I'd suggest using a rifle and
carefully picking off the German riflemen who are situated in various positions
around the aforementioned buildings. There's one on the balcony directly
opposite, one on the roof and one in the far right window. Take out those and
the other few Germans mentioned before, then use a grenade or machine gun to
clear out the MG42 gunners.
Make your way into the German headquarters building and approach the stairs,
killing the two guards inside watching the entrance. As you get there, a German
will usually make his way down so kill him, then cautiously make your way up
the stairs. Before you get half way, turn around and climb them backwards, a
German will be waiting with a rifle for you, so take him out as soon as you get
a chance. I'd then suggest throwing a grenade into that end of the room, before
actually entering it as there are two Germans behind a table ready to gun you
down. Make sure they're both dead, then grab the documents and make your way
out of the building.
Jump on the MG42 in the sand-bagged area and use it to clear out the five or so
Germans who are trying a counter attack, they should be disposed of no problem.
Next just head through the gate to the left and follow the alleyway until you
meet up with more members of your squad. When you hear that "this building is
secure", you're safe, so follow them up the stairs and off the balcony where
you'll meet up with the Captain and complete the objective.

Level 1: Repairing The Wire

"Repairing the Wire"

===================
• Repair the field phone wire between HQ and the Solechnaya Street outpost.
• Use the field phone and re-establish contact with regimental HQ.
• Pick up the sticky bombs.
• Hunt down and disable the Panzer II tanks with the sticky bombs.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
From the start of the mission, run along the street, and run across the road in
front of the MG42. If you have trouble with it, you could use smoke, but that's
really not necessary this early in the mission. Make your way up the steps and
repair the wire, then move to the left and take cover. behind the walls and
other objects. Lean out and take out the Germans who will probably be marked
with red dots on your compass, then when you've killed off most of the close
ones, mantle over the wall and move towards the MG42 position.
There'll still be a few Germans to kill here, however move into the building on
the left and repair the wire. Throw one or two grenades up behind the sandbags
at the top of the room, as there are three to five Germans in here who will
randomly pop up and rifle you. Use your SVT-40 or PPSh to pick them off if you
get a chance. When all looks clear, move up and head to the far exit of the
building. Help your squad dispose of any Germans you can see here, then prepare
for probably one of the toughest battles in the game so far.
You will definitely need to smoke the street around the corner. There are a
good fifteen or so Germans with rifles and autos shooting right at you, and
you've literally got to get past them. The only way is to use smoke to block
their vision, get pretty much all of your grenades in there and then move in
fast with a PPSh and clear up the rest. Of course it's never that easy, and
you could well be stuck at this section for a number of retries. You've just
gotta keep trying, and get lucky.
Move into the building on the right and kill the three Germans down here before
heading through the doorway. This next section can be quite difficult too, take
cover behind the concrete in the center of the area and use your SVT-40 to kill
the Germans on the floors opposite. There'll be three or so up there, then one
German may come down the stairs to the right. Wipe them all out, then head up
those stairs and repair the wire.
Two Germans, or maybe more will rush to the top of the stairs, so prepare to
take them out, then slowly make your way to the top of the steps where you'll
have to kill two or three more Germans, most of whom are behind the objects in
the center for cover. Clear out this area, and then get on the MG42 to the
left. Use it to fire at all of the Germans below and keep shooting until you
can't see any more. Repair the wire right next to the MG, then proceed through
the building.
Lean out from behind the wall and take out the few Germans who will come to the
sand bags in the next building. Once they're gone, move across and look through
the sand bags to take out a few more Germans. A few will probably try to flank
you from the room on the left, so once you've cleared out as many as you can
see, move through the rooms and use your PPSh or grenades to take out the
remaining Germans. There are probably a good ten or so scattered through all of
the rooms, so make sure they're all gone, then proceed down into the next area.
Kill the MG42 gunners and rifle men to the left, then head down the stairs to
the right and take out the five or so Germans down here with a grenade and your
PPSh or rifle. Once everyone's been killed, head down the stairs and kill a
German who will be waiting for you, then repair the wire, and use a grenade to
clear out the next room. Once it looks secure, move in and along the corridor.
Kill any Germans who remain in the room at the end, then pick up the sticky
bombs and use the radio to contact HQ and get your orders. There are tanks
moving in, so you need to take them out. Make your way up the stairs and wait
for two Germans to burst through the door. Kill them with your PPSh, then
carefully proceed through the door yourself, taking out the few Germans who
will be in this area.
As you move through a few Germans will make their way down from above and land
below. There'll be a pretty decent amount of Germans to kill, so I'd suggest
throwing two or three grenades in their general direction, then moving in to
clear out the rest. From there move into the next room and get on the MG42 to
the right. Use it to kill a few Germans behind the obstacles at the side of the
road, then get off the MG42 and throw grenades into the building opposite where
the Germans are. Drop down at the end of the room and move across the street
into the German building, then take out any Germans that are left.
There should be a tank coming along the street now, so run across the road and
take cover behind the crates. As the tank goes past, quickly chase it and plant
your bombs on the side or back then take cover as it blows. Make your way along
the street, then along the street to the right, taking out any Germans who you
come across. Move into the building on the right and kill the few Germans
upstairs, then use the balcony outside to help you dispose of the final few
Germans in this area. You'll hear a tank at the end of the next long street,
so get some smoke in there and wait for it to fill up the street.
Once it does, run straight through it and then move into the broken buildings
on the right when you reach them. Kill the few Germans who will be nearby then
run through the building and catch up with the tank. Plant your bomb on it,
then take cover. Move back towards the intersection and then head off down the
street leading to the next tank. This area is heavily populated with Germans
too, but a well placed smoke grenade and a few frag grenades should give you
enough time to rush towards the tank, plant your bomb and take cover at the far
end of the street. Just make sure to kill the two Germans who'll come from that
end of the street after you plant the bomb. Once it blows up, it's the end of
this pretty tough mission.

• Clear the suspected enemy supply dumps.
• Eliminate the enemy forward position.
• Eliminate the enemy machine gun position.
• Rendezvous with your comrades.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Move towards the entrance to the pipe and crouch down to allow you access.
Follow your squad up the pipe until they stop above the German halftrack. Like
idiots they'll start shooting and give away your position, so my advice is to
use your gun and spray down onto the Germans before they move out of the
halftrack. It won't really make a difference anyway as your two squad mates
will be wiped out by enemy fire that will rip through the pipes. Quickly make
your way through the pipes and avoid the enemy fire coming through.
You'll need to move quickly and carefully, you can actually move more quickly
by strafing along the side of the pipe as you move forward. Head off to the
right when you reach the piping with writing on it. Ignore the Germans below,
it's not worth wasting your ammo, then continue along the pipe and quickly move
past the grenade that will come through. Once you reach the end, drop down and
follow your squad outside.
Take cover in the trenches and fire at the Germans in the station watch tower
building then move along to the right behind the trains and take out the
Germans who will be streaming towards you. Try to make your way up into the
broken building beside the tower taking out the tens of Germans in here.
You'll most likely have to use a number of grenades and a lot of spraying, as
well as taking cover. Move in and make your way up the stairs, taking out the
German on there, and then get a few grenades in the top of the watch tower
room. There are a good four or so Germans in here, and once you've wiped them
out, you'll immediately have to start defending the area.
Head down the stairs and go prone about half way up. Using a PPSh shoot the
large number of Germans who will move in. Keep up the fire for a few minutes
and then move down and out the far end of the ruined building. Keep to the
right and head around the back of the trains. If there are any Germans still
remaining, try to take them out, but your primary objective is to take out
the enemy tank which is heavily defended by a good number of Germans. You'll
need to use all four of your grenades and two or three smoke grenades, then
run like hell in to plant the bomb on the tank. As soon as you plant it, fall
back behind something and take cover, then pick off the final few Germans in
the area.
Once outside is secure, you'll need to move into the next room and clear it
out. There'll be ten or so Germans in here, so a smoke grenade could help to
move in and a few grenades wouldn't be too bad for you either. Keep spraying
at the enemies until you secure this area, then move to the end of the room,
behind the MG42 and pick up ammo for the PPSh and Tokarev SVT-40.
You now have three objectives which you are required to complete. I'll cover
them in alphabetic order, so we'll need to head out of the large building, then
head left past the broken wall and up the hill. Watch out for about five
Germans here and a few in the building to your right, then run across the open
area all the way to the other side. There'll be a number of Germans in the
trenches to the left, so get some grenades in there, and use your SVT-40 to
pick off any remaining enemies. Move in to the MG42 area and you'll capture
the first objective.
The next objective involves you moving into the large building in the middle
and taking out all of the Germans, which isn't really an easy task considering
there's a good twenty or so in here. Once again use grenades and your PPSh to
assist in the murder of the Germans. They'll throw grenades back at you and
use the objects in the room to the right effectively for cover, so make sure
you check every single area, and once the whole building is secure move back
down and proceed across towards the final objective.
Almost exactly the same as the first, you need to kill a number of Germans in
the trenches, then capture their MG42 position. It's pretty much common sense
as to how to get there, use smoke to conceal your movement, then use grenades
to take out a few of them before moving in with your auto and clearing up.
Once everyone's dead you'll pass the mission.

• Recapture the apartment buildings.

• Help your comrades destroy the ammo depot.
• Advance upon City Hall.
• Destroy the Panzer II tank with a sticky bomb.
• Destroy the second tank with a sticky bomb.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
From the start of the level, keep to the right and rush towards the German
controlled building. Shoot the red barrel which will explode taking out a good
number of them, then move past it and into the building with the stairs. Head
up each floor wiping out the resistance, and when you get to the top, you'll
be told that an enemy tank is on it's way. You're also told that there may be
anti-tank weapons in the apartment opposite, so make your way back down the
stairs and prepare to run across to the other side of the area, using the
large hill for cover.
Move into the apartment building and enter the bathroom where you'll find the
sticky bombs on the floor. Grab them, and then prepare to engage the tank.
Look out of the window and shoot at all of the Germans below, take out all of
the ones you can see behind the tank, then mantle out of the window and charge
at the tank. Quickly plant the bomb on it, then run back up the hill and get
behind some cover. If you're finding it difficult to avoid the enemy fire when
doing this, you could throw a smoke grenade into the tank area and wait for it
to fill up the area although you will need a few later on in the level.
Once the tank blows up, you'll move through the apartment building where four
Germans will be waiting for you in the next corridor. Just wipe them out with
your PPSh and proceed through the next few rooms with your comrades. Ignore the
Russians shooting at the Germans opposite and move straight through the next
doorway and into the room at the end. You now need to move across the street
below and clear out the German controlled building, which has a good fifteen
or so enemies inside. The best way I've found of doing this is to smoke the
area right in front of the building and then run across to the left, throwing
grenades into the doorway, before flanking to the right and doing the same.
Then just move in and finish off the last few on the bottom floor with a PPSh.
This is rather hard on the later difficulties so it could take a good deal of
luck, but smoke grenades are one of the most important parts to success in
this area.
Once you've cleaned out the bottom floor, head towards the stairs and prepare
to take out another four or so Germans up here. You should have picked up some
grenades from dead Germans below, so throw a few of them up there, then move
up and pick off the last few Germans.
Move through into the next room and get on the MG42 to the right. Use it to
wipe out the Germans to the right, a few in the center of the street, and
eventually the ten to fifteen in the building to the left. Keep pouring the
shells on the Germans and eventually your comrades will blow up the ammo
supply depot. Straight after that a Panzer tank will make it's way towards
you, so get off the MG42 and move back in the room.
After two or three shells against your building, the wall will explode, so
immediately run to it and drop down, then move to the right. Watch out for
the German on the balcony to the right, then head around the back of the wall
and move in a flanking action behind the tank. This area is swarming with
Germans and you'll probably need to use a lot of grenades, firing, then taking
cover to move closer, although a few smoke grenades will help a good deal.
Take out the Germans as you try to catch up with the tank. If you threw enough
smoke you should pretty much be safe from German fire, but the tank moves
pretty darn fast so you'll need to do something special to catch it. Once you
do, take cover in a building or behind an object until it blows. Help your
squad pick off the remaining Germans, then move through past the far wall, into
the building on the left and up the stairs, where you'll pass this part of the
mission.

M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Make your way through the broken wall and engage the few Germans in this area,
and the few who will run across from the left. Once they're gone, move into the
area to the left and throw smoke into the center area of the street. Once it
fills, throw a few grenades towards the German positions, mainly to the right,
and move down as fast as you can alongside the left buildings and enter the
one building along here which you can get in, then move upstairs.
From here use your rifle to pick off any remaining Germans, but reinforcements
will arrive until you can secure the MG42 area, so you'll need to head down the
stairs and prepare to make your way across towards the MG42. Use grenades to
flush out the enemies, then just rush the remaining ones with your PPSh. Once
you reach the MG42, proceed around the corner and move across to the right and
head towards the concrete road blocks.
Three Germans will make their way towards you, so either spray them down or use
a grenade to take them out, then move in behind the destroyed halftrack. Throw
a grenade behind the sandbags to the right where a few Germans will be then
move in and take out the rest. Head through the building and plant your
explosives on the door, then fall back and take cover. As soon as it blows,
move through the smoke into the next room where you'll pass the mission.

• Pick up the sniper rifle.
• Kill the enemy sniper.
• Repulse the enemy attack waves.
• Find a Panzerschreck rocket launcher.
• Destroy the Halftrack with the Panzerschreck rocket launcher.
• Eliminate any remaining enemy resistance.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Move through the first few rooms taking out the enemies who are for the most
part hidden behind obstacles. Move upstairs once they're all dead and grab the
sniper rifle from the floor. One of your comrades will trick the enemy sniper
into shooting his helmet, then you'll know his position and can take him out.
It'll vary each time you play the mission, so listen to what you're told and
use the 'hold breath' feature to steady your aim as you fire at the sniper.
Once he's dead, climb the ladder and prepare to move into the next building
where you'll have to secure the top and bottom floors from the Germans.
Move in slowly and use a machine gun to spray the enemies as you move through
the top floor rooms. There'll be about ten Germans to clear out, then about
five downstairs. Once you've got them all head back upstairs where you'll be
informed of a German attack coming for the City Hall. You'll need to help your
comrades defend the building from four waves of German attackers.
Find a good vantage point, usually at the far left or right windows, and pull
out your Sniper Rifle ready to shoot at any Germans rushing towards. Your main
objective here is to take out the portable MG42 soldiers who are trying to move
their guns into a position where they can fire at your building. You'll be able
to spot them from the large gun they're carrying, but if you can't take them
out before they can deploy you'll need to pick them off once they start
shooting. Watch out specifically for them.
You'll also want to fire at the other waves of Germans moving forward too, but
the MG42 gunners are some of the most important enemies that you need to take
out. Ensure you eliminate the MG42 gunners in the far buildings when they
appear too, because they have pretty good accuracy and can make a mess of you
real quick.
Keep pouring on your ammo, and after the third wave you'll notice enemies
starting to get into your building. Use an auto to pick them off as they make
their way up the stairs, and after a few seconds you'll be told of a halftrack
which is moving in too. Head into the main upstairs room and swap your sniper
rifle for the Panzerschreck anti-tank weapon at the back of the room, then when
the halftrack stops in front of your building, use it to take it out. Once
that's gone just keep firing at any remaining Germans both in your building and
outside, and eventually you'll pass the final mission in the reasonably short
Russian campaign.

===============================
S T A R T I N G W E A P O N S

• Crusader Tank
===================
O B J E C T I V E S
===================
• Follow tank formation over ridge.
• Defeat incoming enemy tanks.
• Regroup with Friendly tanks to the east.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
You're in charge of a Crusader Tank, which is an amazingly fast piece of
machinery. From the start of the level just move forward at top speed through
the small town. Ignore the hundreds of Germans running all over the place, or
feel free to go "Grand Theft Auto" on them and mash them into the ground with
your tank. Either way they can't harm you, so you can do what you like.
Follow the star on your compass and make sure you're always following the lead
tank in formation. As you move over the top of the ridge you'll get ready to
charge at the waiting German tanks. their guns are much more powerful than
yours from long range. Although they're slow moving, they can shoot you from
much further away than you can shoot. That's why you've got to drive straight
into them and blast them from close range.
Follow the lead tank as you start getting shot at, it'll be marked with the
star on your compass and as you get closer and closer to the shining grey
German tanks, look at them with the turret. If the crosshair goes red, you're
within range. Keep moving straight forward at full speed and take out the tank
to the right. It'll usually take three direct hits to blow it up, then take out
the closest one on the left, and the one further up the hill on the right.
Move up past the destroyed tank to the right and go around the back of the
ridge there, then come up behind the three German tanks to the other side of
that. They seem to blow up quicker with a direct hit to the back so try to
take all three out as quickly as possible, then move along the ridge in that
direction where you'll come across three more tanks. Using the same tactics,
just rush at them and fire, then move through and behind them in order to
take them out.
Once all three are gone, you'll need to head back to the other end of the area
eliminating any tanks which remain. There should only be one or two, then
you're finished what was a fun, but reasonably short and simple mission.

===================
O B J E C T I V E S
===================
• Flank the Flak Gun positions.
• Destroy Flak 88 positions along the ridge.
• Destroy defending Panzer II tanks.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
This is another tank driving mission, and another relatively simple but fun
mission. Once again you need to remember that your tank doesn't have the turret
range that the enemies have, so you need to move in close before you can
successfully attack them.
Follow the squadron up the hill to the South East. Once you're in range, take
out the two German tanks who'll move towards you, then blast the Flak 88 to
destroy it. Watch out for the Germans in the trenches with anti-tank weapons
though, as they can make a mess of your tank pretty quickly.
Move along the ridge and over the next hill where you'll find a good five or so
German tanks and a few Flak 88's to take out. Stay at the top of the hill and
pour your shells into everything until you can see nothing else on the compass,
then move in and take out the Flak guns marked by the star. Head around to the
next ridge and destroy the German truck, as well as any of the soldiers you
feel like wasting, then blow up the Flak guns around here.
Keep to the right and move up around and up the next ridge, running over any
Germans with your tank and shooting the truck trying to escape. Move down the
hill where you'll find two or three German tanks moving in. You should be able
to take them out without any trouble, then move up to the right and across onto
the next ridge. You'll see two tanks pretty close to take out, a Flak gun to
the right and a pile of ammunition boxes in the center. It goes without saying
that you should blow the hell out of all of these, then move down the hell on
the far side to take out another ammo dump, flak gun and one final tank before
passing the mission.

• Fight your way to the armored car and take the gunner's seat.
• Escape from Toujane.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Immediately jump on the MG42 at the window and pour out the bullets at all of
the Germans you can see in the area. They'll be rushing the building from all
sides, below and above, so keep spraying in all directions using the fuel
barrel explosions to your advantage. You can't really kill everyone, so keep
pouring it on until a heavy armoured car moves into the area and Price tells
you to get down.
Quickly drop the MG and move to the back of the room and go prone. The car will
fire shells through the walls of the building on two occasions, then Price
decides the time is right to get the hell out of there.
You'll head the door start to shake behind you, so turn around and wait for two
Germans to knock it down, before they're met with a hail of bullets from your
Thompson. Move down the stairs and kill the two Germans behind the table, and
one outside the door, then take cover from the tank behind the crates.
Follow Price and the guys down the alleyway to the right then take out any
Germans in the area before rushing into the small building to the left. If
there are a lot of enemies here, use a smoke grenade to conceal your movement,
then sneak past the side of the armoured car and take out the gunner. Captain
Price will remove the dead body, then you'll be able to get in the gunners seat
and fire the rather powerful flak from it's cannon. Be very aware that the gun
will overheat, so you'll need to ensure you only fire in full auto for a few
seconds before letting it cool down. Shoot at the big selection of Germans
rushing towards your vehicle, in particular to the ones at the left who have
anti-tank weapons in their possession.
Keep firing at the Germans around the tank as Price and MacGregor have another
funny conversation and you'll eventually get moving. Once you move around the
corner take out the halftrack that'll smash through a wall, then around the
next corner make sure you take out the Panzerschreck German on the roof before
he takes you out.
You'll move through a few different streets, coming across various enemies, but
the most important thing is to take out the Panzerschreck enemies on the
rooftops. You'll always be told when there are anti-tank enemies, so listen to
MacGregor and Price all of the time. The mission is pretty straight forward as
it's a truck-on-rails section, so all you need to do is aim and shoot at the
enemies. Listen to what you're told to do, such as shooting the tank from
behind as you proceed through the different alleyways and roads. Always make
sure you take out the Panzerschreck Germans as soon as possible.
Keep firing at the various trucks you come across, and just after the planes
fly overhead, your truck will be wiped out. After you recover from the
shellshock move into the building to the right and shoot the three Germans
who'll come to visit in their car. After that move along the alleyway to the
right and kill the German at the end, then the two or three at the top of the
stairs. Continue along the road straight forward and meet up with some more
British soldiers. You need to head straight along the road, through the German
defences, and I think the best way to do this is with smoke grenades and frag
grenades, as well as a bit of Thompson spraying.
There'll be three or four Germans who come around the corner from the right, so
frag or spray them, then continue around the corner to the left where you'll
come across six or so Germans behind the destroyed tank. Use the same tactic,
flush them out with grenades and shoot them, and once they're all gone, run to
the truck as you escape from Toujane.

M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Once the tank is blown up, jump off and move in front of your tank across the
road to the left. I know the right alley way would seem like the easier choice,
but trust me, it's definitely not. That way is incredibly hard compared to how
easily you can flank the first Flak gun position by heading through the
alleyways from the left. You'll probably flank a few Germans behind the truck
too, so take them out, then proceed down another alleyway and shoot the fuel
barrels to take out the MG42 gunners. Head up to the Flak gun where you'll
secure the area, then get ready to fight a few Germans who will make their way
down from the top of the street.
Once you've killed them, head to the left of the building and start rifling the
Germans on the rooftop in the next area. Take out the four or five on the roof,
then use grenades to wipe out the five or so behind the various obstacles down
there. Move in once it's all clear, but watch out along the street to the right
where you may come across another five Germans heading in.
Climb up the ladder and make your way along the roof before dropping down in
the next alleyway. Follow your squad over the wall and around the corner, then
engage the Germans in the small room to the left. As soon as you take them all
out, run in, and use the room for cover from the ten or so Germans who'll rush
into the area. Make sure you take out the Germans to the right of the room,
then pick off the new Germans to the left, behind the haystacks.
Follow the road straight forward and then get a grenade next to the Flak gun to
clear out that, then prepare to engage about ten to fifteen Germans who'll come
from all sides to try and kill your squad. Take out any you can see from where
you are, then fall back down the street, taking out any Germans who may have
flanked you, and head along the road to the right, allowing you to effectively
flank the Germans you just attracted to the other street. Take out the MG42
gunner and any more Germans in this area, then move in and secure the Flak 88.
Move up the ramp and around the next area, taking cover behind the crates. Move
your way along the wall and throw smoke in front of the German tank. Run past
it and head along the alleyway to the left. Come back down that street a short
way, then use a grenade or two and clear out the five to ten Germans by the
Flak gun. Move in with your Thompson and clean up the area, then secure the 88
and continue along the street to the left.
Throw a grenade at the Germans at the next Flak gun, then quickly move in
spraying to ensure they don't throw it back. Kill the few Germans further up
the street then secure the gun and keep moving along. Head through the
alleyways taking out the ten or so Germans as you go, then as usual, throw two
or three grenades at the last Flak gun and clean up with an automatic. Once the
last gun is secured you'll be told to head to the mosque, so make your way to
the star on the compass and prepare to fight some more Germans.
Use a rifle to pick off the ten or so Germans on the mosque balcony, then move
up when it's safe and get on the MG42. After a few seconds a number of Germans
will move in from the streets straight ahead, and to the right. Give them a
quick spray with the MG42 and your reinforcements will arrive very quickly,
allowing you to complete the mission.

• Capture the enemy anti-aircraft gun in the old fortress.
• Man the Flak Vierling and take out enemy air support.
=====================================
M I S S I O N W A L K T H R O U G H
=====================================
Well let me start by saying the start of this mission is the most ridiculously
hard start to any mission is any game I've ever played. Your jeep is taken out
of commission, and then about twenty Germans on the rooftops have you trapped
in a tiny alleyway, constantly shooting at you. You have about thirty seconds
which you need to keep them under fire for while the gate is opened so you can
escape, and there is literally no real cover to use. I don't even have any real
advice for this bit, it's just completely stupid.
Try to go prone behind the blown up jeep and pop up firing rifle shots at the
Germans closest to you, but if you're playing on veteran, it's going to take a
hell of a lot of luck to get through this. I think I was stuck here for a good
half an hour without being able to do anything but die.
Anyway, try to take out as many Germans as you can, and eventually the gate
will be opened allowing you to escape. Once you do, immediately go prone behind
the wall and let your squad catch up. Keep popping up and firing off rifle
shots at the Germans behind the sandbags and crates in the distance. There are
also a number of Germans to the left too. Your best chance is probably to smoke
the area and run to the right, keeping behind the wall. Move directly across
the road and then pick off the Germans from alongside them.
Once you've cleared out the few in front of the wall from before, shoot the
ones to the left, then make your way carefully around the corner and engage
the Germans around there, paying particular attention to the MG42 gunner at
the back. Once that area's cleared, move through the arch thing and throw some
grenades at the enemies behind the wall to the left. Move behind the sandbags
where the MG42 gunner was, then look down the street and try to pick off any
enemies before your squad throws smoke.
Once the smoke fills the road, move down quickly and take cover behind the end
wall. Pop up and spray at the five or so Germans who'll come from the left and
then try to move up the stairs just ahead and look out of the window where
you'll be able to take out five or so Germans down there. Once the area looks
secure, head back down and follow your squad around to the left. A halftrack
will provide suppressing fire on you, but it will eventually retreat around the
corner, as your tanks make their way through the streets to meet up with you.
Follow the tank along the road, and as it gets about half way, move to the
right and take cover behind the wall. From there, pick off the Germans to the
left and right sides of the street, mainly around the halftrack area, then move
in behind where the halftrack is and stay in cover as the German planes fly
down the street. Your tank will be taken out, so you'll need to move down the
rest of the street on foot, and fight about five more Germans as you approach
the entrance to the anti-aircraft area.
Take them out with grenades or your Thompson, and use grenades to wipe out the
Flakvierling anti-aircraft gunners. Quickly try to dispose of any more Germans
in the AA gun area, then run to the large gun and use it to shoot the Germans
on the balcony in front of it. After they're all dead, get off the gun and
switch to a rifle, and pick off the Germans on the next balcony along.
Once they're gone the Germans will appear on the next balcony along to the
right, so take most of them out, then you'll be told to defend the area
against the enemy planes using the AA gun. Get back on it and look straight
forward and shoot all of the planes as they make their way down. Shoot them
just as they're starting to dip ready to fire at you. Always go to the biggest
looking plane first, obviously the one closest to you. You may have to switch
back and forth from the planes to the left and right to do this.
After you've taken all ten or so planes down, it's mission passed, and finally
an end to the campaign in North Africa.
