=====================================
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.
