WALKTHROUGH & DIFFICULTY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The walkthrough is written based on playing on the Normal difficulty setting.
On other difficulties it might be possible that enemies increase in numbers
and shoot better and that the amount of items is lowered. If you want to be
able to follow the walkthrough perfectly it’s best to also use the Normal
difficulty setting. Choosing another difficulty is at your own risk.
WALKTHROUGH & MEDIPACKS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Health is very important, if you run out of it you die. Fortunately there’s
enough of it to be found in small and large packages spread out across the
levels. They are not always mentioned in the walkthrough. Only if they are
placed on locations where you might need them or when they’re part of a group
with other helpful items they are described in the walkthrough.
WEAPONRY & AMMUNITION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Big Red One knows quite a lot of weapons, but you can’t carry more than two at
the same time. It might be possible that, depending on the way you play, you
fast firing weapon runs out of ammunition after some time. Fortunately the
Germans also use that kind of weapons, so switch your empty weapon with one of
a fallen enemy and you’ll always be able to find ammunition.

Listen to the conversation of your colleagues, later it will be explained what
the mission will be all about. As soon as you reach the checkpoint you can
also move next to looking around, after which you follow the running soldier
along the main road. You’ll have no opposition until you reach the vehicles. A
tank will come up from the right, so stay behind cover until it gets destroyed
and then follow your team mates to the building in the outer corner to go
inside there. Follow the route through the building and let you partner kick
in the door, then you can continue. When upstairs the wall will be blown to
bits, so duck down and take cover behind the now lower wall. Defend this area
by shooting all the enemies walking around downstairs, they will be
replenished every now and then. If you walk through the building a bit and
switch positions you’ll get another goal after a while. Pick up the health if
you need it and head to the right and out of the building. Hide behind the
tank while it moves towards the enemy, but stay where you are when it heads
right because it will explode only moments later.
So keep going straight and enter the basement where your team also enters the
house. Head out on the other side, where you need to take care of the enemies
on the higher floors of the houses on the other side of the water. Follow the
route along the water until someone mentions you should stop for now. A team
mate will give a signal when it is okay to run again, so run along with the
rest when that happens. Ahead there are some more tanks which are on your side
and they will start moving when you approach them. Stat with them to take
shelter behind them and look for cover behind the debris or next to the houses
when you go around the corner to the right. Ahead is an enemy tank. It doesn’t
move but it can still shoot. Take care of the other enemies while your team
tries to blow up the tank by climbing on it. They will fail, after which it is
your task to finish their job. Move to the right to enter a building and use
the debris to get to the top floor.
On the other side of that floor is a mounted machinegun, use it to get rid of
the enemies around the Flak canon and to take out the weapon itself. After
that a door will open to the right of the machinegun, it enables you to use a
stairs to go down and to move along the water to the east. Be brave and cross
the bridge right away to get to the enemy tank. Quickly place the explosive on
the side of the tank using the black button and return to where you came from
to take cover. Run past the tank after it explodes and take shelter inside the
broken down building right in front of you where your team mates are also
hiding. Sit down next to the opening in the eastern wall and try to take cover
as well as possible while the smoke grenade is wearing off. Your objectives
will change and you’ll have to defend this area. From the east multiple
enemies will come and you have to shoot them down. Try to take care of the
enemies heading for cover behind the lower wall first before they get a chance
to do so and then take out the rest. Eventually you’ll fall to the ground
injured, don’t worry because it is supposed to happen and it means it’s the
end of the level.

Everyone is having a conversation when the guy behind the on board weapon gets
shot through the head. You’ll automatically take his place, so you’ll get
control over the heavy weaponry. First aim at the roofed shelter directly next
to the road, if every enemy there is taken down you can work your way to the
left where the enemies come from. Try to take them out quickly, because not
much later you will start to move and the enemies will come closer. Ahead you
will drive along the flat rock on your left, enemies will appear on it and you
can take them out easily. Harder are the enemies hiding between the buildings
ahead. Look where the bullets come from and shoot back in that direction. Keep
doing this along the entire route until you get to a fence guarded by two
towers. The right one will be automatically taken out, so focus your attention
on the left tower to take out the guy with the rocket launcher. As soon as you
bumped through the fence you can get out of the vehicle and pick up some
health. Regroup at the door where the rest of the team is already waiting. The
door will be kicked open and the enemies inside will attack you. Shoot a
couple of guys from the opening of the door, then move to the crates in the
middle and take out the rest that comes in later.
Leave the room on the other side and enter another building immediately to the
left. Wait for your men to continue through the room, clear it and head out on
the other side. The door on the left at then end of the hallway will get
kicked in, after which you have to shoot enemies on the left in the room and
straight ahead in the hallway. A door gets opened at the end of that hallway,
head out there and watch out for enemies hiding behind the tables on the right
and further back at the windows. In the little room on the side on the left
are a lot of items, including grenades and health. When you move through this
room you’ll end up outside, where you’ll meet a colleague behind the fence on
the left and the door next to him is opened. Shoot two guys inside, head up
the stairs and walk to the opening of the door on the right to reach the
hangar itself. Shoot as many enemies as possible from the safety of the door,
which enables your team to move further step by step. As soon as it calms down
you can turn around and head up the stairs next to the shelter, so that you
can reach the other side of the hangar using the walkways.
Take care of the opponents around the office on that other side and enter it
to pick up health and grenades from the desk. Go left through the storage room
and when you get to the short walkway you’ll see your team below you, help
them to take out the enemies there and walk through the next room to another
hangar. Do the same thing as in the previous one by first taking out the
enemies you can see and the moving to the other side by the overhanging
walkway. Descend to the lowest floor from there and follow the team outside
while they run there and get shot at by a crossing plane once. The door of the
next room gets kicked open, so walk inside and take out two men near the
fences. Then follow the route to the opening of the door directly connected to
the hangar. Shoot who you can see through the window and work your way to the
other side using the obstacles in the room. First make sure that the lower
rooms are empty, then head up the stairs and through an office to a door that
gets opened for you. There is quite a lot of smoke here, but just follow the
walkways and rooms to the next door that needs kicking to open and gives you
direct access to the next hangar.
Take care of the first batch of enemies, after a short while two armored
vehicles on your side will enter the hangar. Help them with taking out the
enemies that appear on the other side, you can’t reach their positions both
upstairs and downstairs. A little later one of the soldiers will open the
hangar doors so that the armored cars can exit again. Don’t go after them
until you’re ordered to do so, otherwise you’ll die and the hangar will not
get cleared. When going outside, run along the vehicles in one straight sprint
towards the corner with the bushes. Look around the corner to shoot down the
men on the southern tower, then move through the crates to the north. You’ll
run into a couple of enemies and eventually come to a door that gets opened in
the east. Walk through the room and first take out the enemy with the fast
weapon on top of the rear car in the room with the parked armored vehicles.
Use grenades to also take out the rest of the enemies and head outside on the
other side. Turn around and head up the ramp so that the next door will be
opened for you. Shoot the enemies inside and get a team member to open a door
at the end of the hall.
Continue a little and first take out everyone on the right before heading over
to the left. Climb the stairs or throw a grenade up there to secure that
floor, after which you’ll get the objective to take out two Flak canons in the
surrounding area. Walk outside and to the side of the balcony where you have a
clear view at both canons. Use the left trigger to get a better view of where
the enemies are and shoot them off the canon or throw a grenade if you want
to. Your objectives get updated every time you kill someone, a Falk canon is
useless when all the people around it are defeated and it doesn’t fire any
more. Make sure that’s the case with both canons so that your goal is
completed. Head back down and to the left at the bottom of the stairs and
outside through the next room. Run across the square and get into the Flak
canon yourself. You’ll have to shoot down five Stuka airplanes flying around
here with this canon. There are more airplanes flying around, including
American ones. The Stukas are the ones that make dives toward you and your
canon while shooting at you, but that’s also the moment they’re the easiest to
hit. Use your compass to see from which side they’ll make their dive. As soon
as five go down some other ones will make a final attack. Take them down as
well until the coast is clear, then report to the sergeant.

You’ll start out this level in a tank, you control the driving part with the
left stick and the turret with the right. Follow the other vehicles until you
reach an area with buildings, an enemy tank will come from the left
immediately. Take it out quickly and also the other one further down the
route. Stay behind the other tanks and follow them while paying attention to
the goals on your compass. In a valley further ahead you’ll be shot at by
enemies with rocket launchers, if you seen them you have to take them out as
fast as possible. Other enemies aren’t all that dangerous, so you don’t have
to pay attention to them. When going around the corner to the right there will
be two tanks on your route, try to see just enough around the hill to be able
to hit them and drive past them when they’re destroyed. You’ll drive into a
village with a couple of men running around, but a friendly tank also gets
blown up there. On your radar the location of a tower appear, so look in that
direction and shoot it down. A new goal will appear on your radar, a canon on
the left side. Past the buildings in the middle is another enemy tank, watch
out for it. When you continue south just a little four more tanks will come
your way.
Shoot them to bits as soon as they appear, your team will help a little.
Follow the route further between the mountains and you’ll reach an enemy
outpost. Watch where the goals appear and take out the car that takes off with
a well aimed shot, then take care of the hostile tank and destroy what you
need to hit to get a new location on your compass. Continue with your team
through the small mountain pass and stay behind when you reach the and of it,
you can see the enemy tanks from the distance and fire at them. There are at
least three tanks and when they’re destroyed you also need to take out the
canon in the middle of the large pit. Drive along with your team to bend off
to the west, where more tanks will show up. There are at least four and in
between them is another canon you need to take out. Try to hide behind the
hills a little and stay behind to avoid shots coming your way. Follow the team
to the southeast, where two more tanks appear that you just need to destroy.
Ahead there’s a canon on top of the hill to the left of the barricaded route
and it’s the last one you need to destroy. Take some distance and place your
tank on a hill to get the best view on this weapon and to be able to take it
out with a good shot. After some radio contact the enemy outpost will be
bombed and you’re done here.

The ride on the back the terrain vehicle starts out calmly while the men in
the front are talking, but after noticing enemy tanks things get more rough.
As soon as you get out you need to approach the parked armored vehicle and
press the black button to take place behind the on board canon. Use this
weapon to destroy the tanks that come driving over the hill. Choose one and
completely destroy it before you start shooting at another one. After
destroying quite a lot of tanks you’ll be shot out of the vehicle and the
canon is broken down, which makes you obligated to take cover. Do that at the
indicated location, in a foxhole. Shoot down the enemies that come at you from
two sides and keep them away from you. A little later the location where you
need to be switches to another foxhole more to the right, there’s a machinegun
there that you need to mount. Ignore the tanks and look at your radar where
the enemy infantry is coming from, look in that direction and mow them down.
Just before the enemy tanks come too close, reinforcements will arrive to take
them out. Take care of the remaining enemies, after which you have to talk to
your superiors at the indicated location. Two men will run in front of you,
follow them to meet more men a bit ahead. Soldier Denley will continue
running, so just run after him into the mountains. On the small route up the
hills you’ll encounter multiple enemies, especially between the ruins when
going to the west and continuing to a northern gate. Follow your team through
the rocky area and take out the enemies that are hiding there. Eventually
you’ll come to a tunnel through the rocks, which is guarded on the other end
of it by a machinegun. Use your M1 Garand to take out the guy that’s operating
it and also take out any replacements that might start using it. Descend down
the path and eventually you’ll come to the indicated location with a German
rocket launcher. Pick it up and use it against the tanks located below. You’ll
have to refill your ammunition every now and then, but at this spot it’s
unlimited.
When the three tanks are taken out a faster armored vehicle will head your
way, but it will stop eventually because a fence it blocking it. Use the
rocket launcher to take out this car as well and then switch back to your
normal weapon. Head down more and you’ll see a car from your side crash and
both men on board will die because of a sniper. Pick up the sniper rifle from
the guy who died very close to you and use it to find and shoot the sniper on
the rocks to the left of the destroyed enemy tanks through his head. On the
hill to the right of those tanks is the second sniper, located behind the
walls of the busted walls. The third one will suddenly appear more to the left
of where the first sniper was, just right when you look over the crashed car.
Stay crouched whatever you do, or he’ll take you out pretty quickly. As soon
as the snipers are down, the engineers will get to work while you need to take
place in the crashed car to be able to operate the on board canon.
Use it to mow down all the enemy troops between and to the right of the broken
down tanks. Keep it up long enough and a second terrain vehicle with sergeant
Hawkins in it will arrive. Approach him for an objective update, then follow
your team into the mountains. Shoot two men behind the rocks before going up a
stairs to get to a closed gate inside tunnel. After a short conversation the
gate gets blown open, after which you can continue to an area with buildings.
Take cover and look around to see where the fire is coming from, then take out
that shooter. It’s only safe when you ream moves further, but more enemies
will come as soon as they take cover again. Use your sniper rifle to take out
the guy on the roof behind the machinegun and also the other enemies on that
roof. Move along that building to the southwest, but watch out for more
enemies. Use your sniper rifle again to take out opponents in door openings or
at other hidden locations from afar.
Move straight ahead to walk to the left of the middle house, which enables you
to take out the man behind the machinegun from the side and use his weapon to
take out the rest between the buildings. Move towards the goal and look out
for enemies coming from the other street. When they are defeated you can
follow the route through the mountains again. Get your sniper rifle and kill
two guys behind the boxes in the outer bend as soon as they appear. At the end
of the route you’ll come to a valley that gets deeper along the way, where on
each platform there is a canon belonging originally to the Americans. Shoot
everyone around it to secure the canon and only then you move to the lower
platform. Keep to the left as much as possible near the second canon to avoid
taking damage from the plane that comes crashing down. Continue to the left
and look out for some lone enemies a bit up to the right around the last
canon. Take them out and notice the air defense armored car a little lower.
Approach it by walking around to the left and place a bomb on the front side.
Take some distance, let the car explode and end the level at the indicated
position.

After the explanation of the mission two other soldiers will run away from
here. Run after them, through the first building, across a street and quite a
distance through a second building. In the big room on the other side the
enemy attack will commence, so grab the BAR weapon of which a couple of pieces
are standing ready and shoot a couple of enemies through one of the windows.
After a while you’ll be ordered to go upstairs, so look behind you and use the
stairs to do so. Only after you’re told can you use the mounted machinegun
there, use to try and take out the enemies that are already in position and
are therefore already shooting at you. You have to keep this up long enough
until your objectives are changed. Both here upstairs and on a table down
below is a lot of health. Return to the previous street together with two team
mates, which you have two follow along multiple checkpoints until you go
through a gate on the left. There are multiple enemies inside the house, take
care of them so that your team can advance and you can follow them. Quickly
enter the house you were shooting at, because shooting will come from the
street to the right.
Work your way through the house and take out everyone inside to secure it. On
the other side you can shoot through the windows and door to shoot the enemies
that keep appearing in the house now indicated on your map. When it calms
down, run towards the door behind the low wall and enter there. Take out
whoever is in here now and take cover at the hole in the wall. A bit later two
men will try and reach the next building with the machinegun on the roof. Take
it out and follow them for the first half. One of the men will get injured,
after which a new location will be highlighted on your map. So backtrack for
quite a bit to that spot to find a medic there, address him with the black
button. You need to escort him back to where you came from, he’ll hide behind
a wooden cart. The sniper in the tower will also shoot him, look for a
position where you have a clear view of the sniper and take him out. Where the
medic got killed you can still find his equipment, go there to pick it up and
then to the wounded soldier who is sitting against the wall to fix him up.
Grab the mounted machinegun right away and keep all the enemies that appear
away from you.
After a while the building gets blown up and after that you’re told to go back
to where the rest is taking shelter as well. A little later you’ll get the
assignment to backtrack a lot, which enables you to take a different route
through a small hallway with doors. Keep following your team mates and in the
first hallway quite a lot of enemies will appear, take them out and continue
to where they came from. Once outside you need to take care of the opponents
on the balcony from the safety of the door, then carefully work your way to
the southwest using all the obstacles. Turn around, head through the gate and
take cover behind a barrel to the left while you shoot down enemies in front
of you and on the right on the platform. As soon as this part calms down you
can continue and take cover somewhere else so that you can shoot to the west
easily. First take out the enemies hiding nearby and then take care of the
ones storming down the hill while slowly advancing in that direction. Take
cover along the buildings on that hill and look out for the machinegun while
moving through the street further and further and descend on the other side.
Run to the sandbag wall and hide behind it while shooting down the enemies to
the left and in front of you one by one.
Approach the two canons and blow them up one by one with enough distance in
between. After that team mates will use the machineguns to mow down enemies at
the bottom of the hill, help them by walking in that direction and clearing
out the street. This is the spot where the sniper was and you got here from
the other side. After the conversation at the indicated location enemy tanks
will show up, so start running through the wide street away from the tank
while it’s shooting at you. You’ll be slowed down at multiple points by enemy
troops, you have to take them out quickly or else the tank will get to close
to your back. Always try to stay on the inside of a bend while shooting at
enemies, this way the tank will need for time to get you in its sight. Ahead
there’s a bend to the left where another tank shows up from the outside of it.
Don’t stay here to get rid of the enemies, first continue to run ahead so that
you’re out of the new tank’s range. It gets more crowded that way, but if you
keep moving well and stay between your team it will be perfectly doable to get
through the last wave and reach the armored truck. Get in as the last one to
end the mission.

You’ll start inside the front on board canon of bomber plane, but after the
dialog you’ll be told to get out of it. Do this with the black button and walk
past the risen wheel through the hold and get inside the dome turret in the
bottom of the airplane. Later it is mentioned that an enemy transport is
flying in front of you, so look in the direction your flying in and you’ll see
quite a lot of airplanes you need to shoot at. Look carefully where your
bullets are going and adjust your aim if necessary to hit the planes right.
Keep looking around you to find targets and keep bringing them down until
eventually your own canon will be shot and breaks down. You’ll get out
automatically and your obligated to go to the bomb sight in the front of the
plane and activate it. A little later the bomb hatches will open, so that you
can see where to drop the bombs. Move the sight slowly below a ship down below
in the water, so that the sight will go over it by flying faster. Drop one
bomb just before you get to half of the ship and another bomb just after that.
Don’t drop more than two bombs per ship, it’s enough to destroy them and more
target will show up later. After a while you’ll be told to leave here, so get
away from the bomb sight.
Take place behind the on board canon where you started, just above the bomb
visor. You’ll be attacked head on by fighters. Again you must look where your
bullets end up carefully, with these targets you need to guess where they will
go to shoot in front of them and make them catch the bullets. You need to do
this for a pretty long time, but later you’ll be ordered to take out the enemy
fighters chasing you with the on board canon in the tail. So get away from
this canon and walk through the entire plane to get behind the rear canon and
continue your job of taking out enemy fighters. After taking down a lot of
enemies backup will arrive, so make sure you wont’ fire at your own friendly
aircrafts. When there aren’t any enemy planes left you need to walk through
the entire plane again and take place behind the bomb sight one last time.
You’ll be flying over land and you can see multiple round targets in groups of
three above each other. Make sure the sight is on that line before flying
overhead and drop two bombs at the right moment. Later there’s another group
of these targets, they also need to be destroyed to finish the mission.

After the introduction to the mission you’ll be put behind the on board canon.
It’s not really your goal to shoot the enemies on the far beach, but it is to
take care of the mines floating around in the water. Sometimes it might be
hard to spot them, but you do have to destroy them to avoid damage being done
to your boat. There are also mines floating in front of the other boats, you
can also destroy them as long as there aren’t any mines close to your own
boat. Once on the beach you’ll get out automatically, after which you take
cover behind the rocks to the right. Run while firing along the first target,
the machinegun to the right on the hill. When you get past it you can take out
the gunners from the back so that this goal will disappear from your radar.
Continue to what appears to be an intersection, but straight ahead is blocked
so you have to go right to kill off the crew of the second machinegun. Further
along the beach is the third machinegun. Try to take out men from a distance
and then sprint towards it to take out the last ones. Approach the machinegun
when your own team is sitting there for an explanation of what is going to
happen next. Two men will run ahead while getting covering fire, but they
still get blown up. One of the two will leave a rocket launcher, as soon as
you get the control back you need to run over there and pick it up.
Use it right away to blow up the barbwire fence in the western direction. Toss
a grenade behind it to kill off some troops and then run towards their
location, take cover from the higher gunner, get the health in the corner and
work your way to the right to reach the entrance to a bunker. As soon as it
opens you can shoot the enemy behind the table, then throw a grenade into the
red lit door opening to take out the guy with the machinegun behind the small
window. If you continue just a bit, more men will come from the left, so
retreat and take them out from the opening of the door. Then go left and up
the stairs and wait for the door on the right to be kicked open. Move ahead to
the next bunker, where one of your team mates will throw a grenade inside. You
don’t really have to shoot at the men behind the door that opens, they will be
gone after the explosion. Head into the bunker, pick up the health and let
someone else open the other door to get outside again. Shoot down the enemies
immediately on the left and continue through the trenches. There are two
bunkers on the right, one that goes up where there’s also health and one just
past it. You can already shoot enemies through the window opening, then you
need to go out of the bunker to the left and walk through the trenches to
reach the next bunker. Inside you can find stairs leading down and also more
enemies of course.
Head out of the bunker on the left and through the trenches and to the next
one. You’ll come to a room with a lot of stuff, including health. In the
hallway to the left is a man behind a machinegun in the little opening, shoot
him by peeking around the corner and hitting him before he hits you. Continue
ahead to the next bunker and the burning hallway. You can’t exit through
there, but you need to place a bomb on the wall just left of it to make a new
exit. It’s pretty crowded outside, with a lot of enemies on and around the
bridge. Stay here and wait until a smoke curtain is made, just like someone
said. As soon as you get the signal you have to run through the smoke to the
openings in the bridge. Behind it are a lot of enemies, so use grenades and
peek around the corner to empty the place out. Climb the stairs and take cover
behind obstacles to attack enemies ahead on the bridge from relative safety.
Advance over the bridge bit by bit and get some health from the building in
the northwest, then continue between the buildings left of it. Take cover
right away when you get upstairs, work your way to the right and eventually to
a building to the left in the west. There is a lot of opposition here taking
cover well and throwing grenades regularly. Stay covered well and run away if
you hear a metal bouncing noise. Once up there you need to run through a house
on the left side of the road and reach all the locations on your compass,
along the tanks and with opposition from enemies.
You’ll fight your way through streets with quite a lot of obstacles, so use
them to be able to advance and your team will help as well. Eventually you’ll
meet soldiers from your army, one of them says someone is looking for you.
You’ll find this man a bit further ahead and he’ll give your team a new
objective. Follow your team mates through the basement of a few buildings
while being fired upon with mortars. Get up the stairs at the end and take
cover when you get outside. First direct your attention to the enemies
appearing in the corner on the right, when your team advances you can follow
them to the left. Behind the arches you’ll find the men you were looking for
and after a conversation a heavy attack in your direction will follow. Stay
crouched behind the walls and shoot everyone that tries to come over to your
position. Watch out when they succeed, because they’ll hit you from the side.
Take care of fast firing enemies quickly and watch your compass, it will
indicate when to change positions. After staying on the second position for a
while you’ll be told to take out a tank. So move through the cover of the
buildings towards the location of that tank and make sure there are no enemies
around it. New opponents will appear when you get close, so quickly place the
bomb and run back for cover. Return to the indicated position and after a
while the threat will disappear, so regroup with your sergeant.

¯¯¯ ¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
As soon as the conversation is interrupted abruptly by some Stukas you have to
move to the indicated armored vehicle and press the black button when standing
next to it to get behind the air defense turret. The vehicle will start to
move and you need to take down the Stukas. You can bring a couple of them down
while moving to the next location, but when you stop there you’ll need to do
it more actively. Carefully watch your compass to see where the attacking
planes come from and shoot them down before they can damage the material. Keep
blasting them and eventually your vehicle will start moving again, but you’ll
stop again soon between the hills where a couple of American canons are placed
and you need to protect them. It’s not really a problem when the attacking
planes let loose a bomb every now and then, but you do need to shoot them out
of the sky eventually. When you succeed in doing so you’ll be removed from the
vehicle and need to continue on foot. Climb the hill in the direction of the
indicated location and you’ll regroup with your team mates, after which you
can continue. Shoot the enemies at the wall on the other side from behind the
wall over here and wait for a plane to crash, after which a team mate will
kick open the fence and you can walk past the crash area.
Dive behind another wall and take care of the opposition around the hut, pay
attention to the weaponry inside the hut as well. Only after everyone is down
will the next fence be opened, so that you can pick up ammunition and health
before your team holds up at the top of a hill. Down below is an enemy convoy
and you have to mark three vehicles for bombardments with binoculars. Use the
left trigger to aim, as soon as you see the red visor appear on the vehicle
you can pull the right trigger to mark it. Do that to the vehicles you can do
it to and be patient. A bit later the whole scene will blow up and then you
can descend to the bridge. Cross over it and follow the route along the water,
where on the others side you colleagues will get bombed by Stukas. Make your
way to the ruins and work your way through them in a western direction. You’ll
reach a lowered square where you first have to kill everyone before you can
move up the bridge in the north and continue to the southwest. Walk through
the dried out river and before you reach the next bridge an enemy vehicle will
stop on top of it. Take care of the men inside and walk underneath the bridge
and continue. You’ll come to a crashed terrain vehicle where there’s a
friendly surviving medic. Get the sniper rifle from the killed soldier and
follow the route through the river.
To the right of the river you’ll be attacked by a few soldiers, mow them down
and follow the bend to the left. Ahead there’s a big hill with a couple of
enemies on it. Make sure you shoot at least the gunners behind the two
machineguns with your sniper rifle, so that you can advance bit by bit.
Eventually you’ll reach another survivor, after which you climb out of the
river on the south side and follow it to the east around a large hill.
Approach the group of men at the entrance of the tent in the outpost, after
which you’re sent into the tunnels ahead. You can see a couple of tanks when
walking across a bridge and when you reach the bunker at the end it gets blown
up. Walk outside to the left and then down the hill. Take place behind the
machinegun on the small platform and shoot all the enemies coming for you. Use
your radar to see where they’re coming from and watch out for the armored cars
that arrive now and then, filled with multiple men. As soon as the troops are
defeated and the bombings start you have to continue to the western tunnels.
Walk past the window opening of the bunker and continue through the tunnel. An
explosion will follow, after which you walk outside.
Approach the bunker door and wait for two men to open it up. Climb the stairs
to get all the way to the top, where the sergeant will give you new orders.
Descend all the way back down again and enter one of the three western bunkers
to pick up a rocket launcher. A lot of tanks will come up from the west. Shoot
at them with the rocket launcher and take some distance from the opening while
reloading, which also enables you to pick up more projectiles for the rocket
launcher. The tanks will demolish the bunker you’re in piece by piece. When it
doesn’t offer any protection anymore you have to move to another bunker, but
keep firing until all tanks are destroyed. Also move to another bunker if you
can’t hit a specific tank. As soon as the tanks are beaten you need to head
back to the main bunker, head all the way to the top and move over to the
window opening to use your binoculars again. There are three tanks located on
your compass and you need to mark them by aiming at it with your binoculars.
This will make that red visor appear again, which indicates you have to pull
the right trigger to mark the target. Do this with all three indicated tanks
and then wait patiently for how things end up.

Your ride on the tank will be roughly disturbed when you reach the gate at the
town entrance and the tank in front of you gets blown up. Join the leader
located a bit ahead and make your way to the street to the west. Use the
obstacles to take cover behind and advance bit by bit when the closest enemies
are defeated. At the end of the street is a building at the intersection where
enemies are shooting outside of the windows, first take care of them before
going around the corner to the right slowly and take out the opposition there.
A little further you’ll be warned about a machinegun, after which you and
another soldier are ordered to take it out from the side. As soon as Kelly
starts running you follow him, to the end of the street to some fellow
soldiers shooting to the left. Carefully look around the corner and shoot
everyone in front and between the obstacles. Move in that direction and shoot
the one on the balcony op on the left before going inside through the hole in
the wall to the left. Head immediately right and up the stairs. Shoot the two
man, specifically the one behind the machinegun, and then any opponents that
might stand on the balcony on the other side of the street.
Your team can proceed, you need to head back down where the door gets kicked
in (There’s a lot of health to the left of it!) so that you can join the rest
of the team. Follow the street to the follow soldiers blocking it of. When you
come close enough they will get blown up and a team mate will die when trying
to open the door to the left. Enter the building and right out of it to the
left to take out the enemies at the next building before walking through it.
Take care of the opponents on the other side of the street and also head
