Mansteins Big Guns

Behind Enemy Lines
The 1st mission of this campaign is a bit of sneaking.

Objective's:
 * - Knock out the AA guns
 * - Pilots + Nikolay must survive.

A quick summary of being stealth.
 * - Keep bodies out of sight, You can pick them with the grap hand

icon.
 * - throw knifes! Enemy soldiers will mostly just stand by and watch

how his companion die and do nothing, some scrips may tricker a response of a death. Effective range = 10-15 m. 20-21 meter= mostly a miss.
 * - Melee attack with a knife = instant kill.
 * - Crawl, ly down in bushes and attack from behind (if possible).
 * - Stealth pistols = useless. They dont make sound, but they still

alarm the enemy nearby.

First select 3 squad members you like (sniper, scout + someone else) and give all the knives to these squad members. Then head out with you holy three to knive the AA crew. A patrol will pass by, follow them (out of sight) and kill them when they are far enough from the camp (melee with knife equipped should do the trick). Then lay down an ambush. Be sure NO SHOT IS FIRED! It will alarm the locals and you are in more trouble. Just throw knifes and crawl to bushes to avoid detection.

Once the crew is down hide the bodies and loot of the corpses. Move out towards the bridge, there cook off an perfect grenade kill. Time your grenade + how the motor-patrol is driving around. Hide the bodies of the brigdge guard. After the motor-patrol has crossed the bridge let your entire squad run towards the other side of the bridge and hide in the bushes there. Throw knifes to the guards at the main gate, afther that move up to the left side of the airport. First: Take out the machinegunner in the watchtower with your sniper. 2 Germans will try to find your sniper > knife them. Once that is complete it is time to knock out the entire army at the airfield in one swift blow. First put up a machinegunner in the bushes overlooking the Germans near the tent around the burning barrel. make sure the grenade lands in the middle of the group. Second sneak up 2 men near the AA-Guns. Once the fireworks start you want to have them to man the AA-guns to knock out the tanks quickly. Second have your sniper stand ready and aimed at the closest watchtower. Execute this scenario in slowmotion and exactly this order.
 * 1: Let your sniper take a shot at the watchtower,
 * 2:While the sniper is taking the shot let

your soldiers equip the AA-guns.
 * 3:Then cook off a grenade and throw it

in the middle of the group. Afther the initial throw put him on fire at will.

The mob at the fire will die instantly, the AA- will wreck the 2 vehicles and the sniper takes out the guy in the watchtower to have have less supressive fire. Kill of the remaining units, and the incomming reanforcements (AA-guns again). Then move your squad up (dont rearm them) and put them in front of the planes, they should automatically step into the plane.

Mission accomplished!

Paid in Blood
Somehow the engine of 1 plane has trouble and crashes down. Luckly your squad (4 soldiers)is able to land on a nearby football field.

(turn your camera 90 degrees to the right for the walkthrough) First run into the bushes and lay down supressive fire onto the investigating germans. Let your machinegunner watch the road to the left. If a motorcycle will leave kill him off to prevent incomming reanforcements (about 12 soldiers). Clear around the HQ, Rearm your troops. Now there are 2 machineguns at the HQ. Drag both of the machineguns towards the football field. Station them on the West side (down). West side = where the tail of the airplane is pointing out. Equip the machineguns with your smg, let your machinegunner and sniper lie down in the bushes.

Now that your defending line is in place, take up the suitcase in the H.Q. (Press Tab to highlight it). Once you have that, equip your gun and run back to your machinegun line. A complete batalion (2 trucks full) will visit your H.Q. It would be crazy to defend there, so thats why you have dragged your machine guns to this place, To have a open line of fire and lots of fire power. Fire some shots towards the germans if they dont come to you. Then slaughter of the enemy on the open field. Rearm if necessary, Some resistance fighters will approach you. Saying they know where your captured members are (unfortunatly only 2 of them). Split your squad up into 2 groups. The left one takes over the machinegun tank on the left near the barn. The second will capture the machinegun tank at the right side near an open field.

Grenade the riflemen at the barn afther you have jumped over the let the 2nd person run in directly into the tank. The tank on the right should be easier. Blow every infantry you see to pieces. Listen to the sound if you hear an Anti Tank rifle firing, try to find him before your tank is shot down. Once most of the infantry is taken out. Take over the halftrack near the road. You need that as fast transport. Make sure you have swept the whole map of enemies before you approach the captured units. Let your half-track stand by (refuel if necessary, there was a fuel barrel in the truck near the H.Q.). Once you have your members, German reanforcements will enter the map, trying to prevent you from getting away.

Put everyone in the halftrack and make a race towards the big hill. Get out of there, climb the hill, swim to the small island and make a run towards the forest.

Mission accomplished!

Chasing Bruno
This mission is a somewhat sabotage mission.

Objective:
 * - Find some mines near the warehouse
 * - Mr Federov must survive.

Secondairy:
 * - Secure the Artillery car attached to the train column.

So you start of in a swamp. Now it wouldn't be a swamp if your soldiers could not drown here. Move them up by following the path EXACTLY. If you wander of to much in the swamps you see your soldiers drowning in quicksand.

First secure the church with light field guns pak 34/35. From there you can go loud (use more agression). Of course your gunshots have alerted nearby troops. Pick them off with your captured fieldgun and us the little cover you have. Rearm your troops afther your first contact. Pick off enemies on the left side of the map, be sure not to get blown up to pieces by the train artillery car.

Then move up with your 2 field guns towards the warehouse. Take out any vehicle/storage tank in range (storage tank for some nice fireworks). Once you have swept the area.

To complete the secondairy objective either use a field gun at 59 meters shooting the guncrew out of the artillery or grenading the open cabins from cover. Search for the orange box in the warehouse to find the mines. Mine the train track at the pointed waypoint (use the binoculars if you can not find it) and watch your second firework show. After the train ambush, a convoy will enter your map at the road near the warehouse. Take them out from the sides with your field gun. You can easily ambush them from the side. and if you have 2 mines left 1 mine should do the trick at the train. You can plant them on the road for a quick vehicle kill.

Once your primairy objective is completed its mission accomplished!

Judgement day for the 688th
Objective:
 * Mr Federov must survive
 * Destroy Bruno (artillery)
 * Destroy enemy AA guns
 * Aquire map at the H.Q.

Aquired men: 8 soldiers
 * 2 resistance fighers
 * 1 sniper
 * 1 machinegunner
 * 3 smg
 * 1 scout

First ambush the tank to the left. This vehicle is an amphibious vehicle meaning this vehicle can transfer you over water. During your repair you have to ambush a convoy. Destroy the first vehicle with a grenade then open fire on the remaining units. Let your scout take up the AT-Rifle.

After repairing the tank follow the sandpath to the water follow the river and drive on land again at the end of the map near the bridge. Transfer all of your crew on this piece of land. (since you have more room to maneuver). Use your sniper to pick off entrenched Germans. Of course the base is warned and a squad will investigate. Pick them off while you retreat to the forrest. Use the AT-rifle for the light vehicles. Now there is a pzkzwk b1 740 (f) tank. It has a 75 mm front gun. 47 mm turret gun along with 2 machineguns (1 is very deadly). Lure this tank to your little forest by shooting at it (with a rifle) and run away. The tank will stand on the place where the shot has been taken. You now can ambush this tank with an AT-grenade (target the turret). Repair the turret and wreak havoc with your aquired toy.

To blow up the Bruno use dynamite (what can be found in the orange box). The map can be found in the H.Q. in a suitcase (press Tab to highlight it).

If you encounter the 2nd pzkzwk b1 740 (f) take out the treads and the infantry around it. Once the infantry is gone move 1 of your men to flank this tank (AT-grenade the tank from the side).

Once your objectives are complete move your squad up towards the Norther road.

Mission Accomplished!

The attack of Captain Mimbell
This mission is stealth based.

Aquired men:
 * 1 sniper
 * 1 machinegunner
 * 1 scout
 * 2 smg's

Objective:
 * Destroy all enemy forces
 * Secure all coastal guns

'Clearing the map'

First ambush and attack the forces near the old ruins. Rearm if necessary from there go silent (knives). Clear out the diggers to the west and the patrol (along with the sapper). Knive the whole camp undetected (throwing + stabbing). Ambush the 2nd patrol near the camp. Then make your way to the right towards the 2 machineguns. Knife them 2 and crawl your way towards the nearest trenchline. From there go load. Try to take over the 2 machineguns on the right. While 2 men equip this machinguns to hold off the hordes of Italians. Repair the Anti-Air defenses Artillery 61-k. Once most of the Italians are whiped of the map they will eventually flee and the 2nd stage will begin.

' Holding off the Italians '

While you repair the last AA defense equip at leat 2 coastal guns and open fire on enemy ships. Target the biggest first then go towards the smaller boats. When a plane comes make sure your AA defense is up and running. Direct control them at leat aim a bit for the planes. One hit should do it. If the planes are shot down to late they coastal guns get bombarded. Then you get some mixed waves of airplanes and boats. Once the russian reanforcements shows up it is mission accomplished!

Lieutenant Federov's respons
Objectives:
 * Destroy the enemy at the base
 * Destroy all boats
 * Mr Federov must survive

Secondairy objectives:
 * Capture the submarine

Given soldiers:
 * 1 sniper
 * 2 smg's
 * 1 machinegunner
 * 1 scout

First let your men climb up the mountain on the right. Open fire on the men near the lighthouse. Defeat the investigating squad, rearm and move downwards. Take out the flak 20 mm + machinegunner with grenades downstairs. Use this gun to destroy some of the boats in the water (target the engines). The boats up close can be blown up by AT-grenades. Pick of enemy troops with your sniper. If a armored car will approach you retreat and use the 20 mm flak if needed. Stay near the mountain and move up towards the main gate. Once you have enough distance of the last remaining flak 20 mm. Open fire on enemy infantry. Move your sniper up the mountain to take out the front guards in the 13.2 mm Hotchkiss. Once most of the infantry is down you can grenade any remaining equipment. Destroy the boats if any are still alive. Then assist the Russians (those allies do not have any Anti Tank infantry/guns.

Do not help them if ou want to do the easy way. Intead take positions of the 13.2 mm Hotchkiss and blow them up from afar if you can hit any targets. Once your allies are destroyed they will move up towards the base. Once they are close enough open fire on the tanks with the 13.2 mm Hotchkiss. Once this wave is destroyed it is mission accomplished.

Congratulations you have completed this campaign!
