Mission 1: Until the trouble troubles you - p. 3 MoW: Vietnam Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

New objective: Find a working means of transportation.

Since the pilots are no longer a problem, you can go loud. Take advantage of everything you have learned so far and simply clean the base of every enemy soldier. If you do not do it, your opponents will make the end of the mission difficult, so it's really better to prevent this from happening. Use mainly your sniper - kill individual enemies and run, and then strike again. You can also place your men behind a good cover and eliminate groups of enemies that come running. Save your game after each enemy's death, in case some of your men get killed. When no one is close, get in any of the trucks at [23]. You will receive another mission objective. Search for ammo and first aid kits for the sniper before you go further.

New objective: Capture the fishing boat.

You will use the sniper once more but this time his task will be very easy. Place him behind a rock in [24] - exactly in the same way as it is shown in the picture below. Save your game and start to aim and shoot the soldiers who are on the other side. Rocks provide excellent protection, so the chances of getting injured are very low. Of course, enemies can still hit you, so save your game after killing 2-3 opponents. If you do get hit, duck (Page down) and use first aid kits to heal yourself. After finishing most of the opponents off you will have to change position of your sniper in order to shoot any enemy survivors. Once all the opponents are dead, select all of your men and swim to the other side, then order one of them to get on the fishing boat. Unfortunately, it's not the end of your troubles, because the fishing boat has an empty tank.

New objective: Find fuel for the fishing boat.

Your next task is to kill all enemies in the vicinity of the destroyed house in [25] and the ruined church in [26]. This time, however, you will use all of your men. Encircle the aforementioned enemy outpost and place all your men behind a rock visible in the picture below [27]. This is a great cover. Select the sniper and kill any enemy, then run to the rest of his comrades. Again, make sure the enemies will not return to the outpost after searching for the causes of their colleague's death. Encourage them with a few shots. Opponents should get divided into two groups, which will only facilitate their elimination. Your sniper can easily kill the rest of the enemies who have not left their positions. You can also sneak behind the church and get rid of the enemies at a closer range.

You need to prepare for your last fight. Leave all of your men in [27], except for the sniper. Send him to the boat, swim back to the other side, and then hide behind the familiar rocks in [24]. Select one of your men and make some space in his inventory by throwing out all rockets and the rocket launcher. Pick up the canister lying in the middle of the destroyed church (use the Tab key to highlight all the items that can be taken), save your game and slow it down.

New objective: Fill up the boat and get your squad in.

After a while the area will be swarming with enemies, but the canister is so heavy that you can't run with it. Therefore, throw it out of your inventory (press I, then click and hold the LMB on the canister, then drag it out of the inventory window) and just leave it in the church. Select all the three men, quickly run to [29] and hide them there. Speed up the game and wait until all the enemy soldiers are near the boat. As soon as it happens, save your game and start to eliminate them in the same way as you did before. Now, however, it might be a little harder, as there are more enemies, making the chance one of hitting you greater. The picture below shows the position that enables you to easily aim at the enemies who will be on the left side. Still, we advise to save your game after 2-3 killed enemy soldiers, and then duck and heal yourself if you got harmed. You can also speed up the game to make aiming quicker. Eventually, you will manage to kill all the enemies in the [25]. Group your soldiers together by the fishing boat and get on it to complete this mission.
