Game Guide - Chapter I: Saint Lo Call of Duty 3 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Before you head into battle, you need to demonstrate your basic soldier skills. Your tester will be private Huxley. All you have to do is follow his instructions.

At first, approach Huxley. There's a M1 Garand gun near him (#1). Pick it up and use to shoot German helmets situated on sticks (#2). Don't worry, soon your will be aiming real opponents.

Now it's time to play grenadier. Pick up grenades lying near Huxley. Your task is simple: give imagined Germans hidden in the barn some entertainment (#1). Throw few grenades inside - two through the windows and one through the door. Now take the smoke grenades. Throw one in direction of the barn and your task will be completed.

Next you will be sent to get additional weapons. Go to the spot marked on the compass, bend down the board, approach the box (#2) and break it off by striking quickly. Now take the gun and head to the nearest truck. After you get inside, your test will be completed. Time for some real battle.

Your joyride won't last long. Soon you will be at the center of the fight. There's a cemetery, then a church and further part of destroyed city in front of you. When you get through the wall, head to the small building (#1). Be careful, because it may be occupied by an enemy soldier. Kill him, hide in the north-east corner of the housing and clear terrain in front of you. Remember that haste makes waste so eliminate your opponents little by little. Head slowly to the church (#2). Use the tombstones and cemetery wall to take cover.

Quickly run through the path and head to the church entrance (#2). There's a lot of Germans inside, so throw a grenade before getting in. Now run inside, kill the survivors and go ahead.

When you'll be in the water, lay down and crawl under the beam (#1). Soon you'll be on the other side. Turn left and overleap another obstacle (#2).

Now head to the building with swastika on it. Watch out for the enemy behind the gate (#1). After eliminating him, run to the house occupied by Germans. Halfway you'll be guided to right to check and secure a building nearby (#2).

Suddenly, you will be attacked (#1). Hand-to-hand struggle will consist of four stages. First, you fight to seize the gun (press RT and LT buttons in rhythmic movements). Second, you push away your opponent. He won't lose heart though and will attack again. Another moment of struggle and you'll be able to finish this clash (#2).

Now it's time to drive a tank a bit (#1). Climb on it, equip the binoculars and look for targets to destroy. In the building on the right, you'll perceive your first opponent (#2). Inform the tank crew and they will eliminate him.

Do the same thing with two other enemies. One is situated in the building right in front of your tank (#1). The other hides in the boarded up window on the left (#2). Then your tank will move forward.

When the vehicle will stop, look again through binoculars and find an enemy hidden behind the barricade on the destroyed floor of the building. Your last target to eliminate is a German tank, which will arrive from the left side. Unfortunately, you won't be lucky for long. Your vehicle will crash and you will find yourself in a building nearby.

Leave it and run east to the place that used to be a café before the war (#1). There will be a little drama going on. Apparently your squad is in dead end. Enemy cannons can hit it an any moment. No wonder some of your comrades become very nervous. Luckily, you find a secret passage which will lead you out of this dangerous location.

Move with your comrades toward the east (#1). Soon you'll be outside. Now you need to get across the street (#2). The terrain is guided by an enemy forces so better throw a grenade first and then hide behind the wall and eliminate the rest of opponents. In case of troubles, you can always use a smoke screen.

Your next target is building in front of you (#1). Be careful, because there are Germans running out its side door every moment. To clear the way, it's good to use the elements of environment. Do you see that red barrel near the enemy post (#2)? Shoot it and the situation will become better.

It's not advised to run in the building thoughtlessly. Instead move little by little trying to eliminate as many enemies as you can. When you'll see a hole in the wall leading to another room, throw a grenade through it. It will affect your opponents surely. When you'll manage to clear the ground floor, move with your comrades to the second one (#2).

After a while, the gameplay will change a little. You will be forced to act on the defensive now. Your task is to survive until the succor arrives. You can take advantage of three holes in the front wall of the housing. Your comrades usually concentrate on the middle one, so you better use the one on the left first and eliminate enemies which you will see through it. Next watch for no one to get to the floor (throwing a grenade through the hole in the floor should make it). Now hide behind the wall near the exit to the balcony (#1) and shoot the Germans in the building vis-a-vis. If you manage to survive the enemy offensive, the mission will have a successful ending and Saint Lo will be free.
