• Mission 7 – general information

The most important locations in Massif Central.

1. Checkpoints - #2 on the map

There are two checkpoints on the map - southern (picture 1) and eastern (picture 2). They separate the southern part of the map, where you start off the mission, from the northern part of the map, where your main objectives are. You can use the holes in the fence (described below) or dispatch the enemies at the checkpoints. The eastern checkpoint is easier to pass through, as there aren't any tanks near it.

1. Fence fragments you can cut with bolt cutters - #3 on the map

In three different parts of the map the fence is weakened and can be cut open with bolt cutters. Doing so unlocks access to the northern part of the map without the need to go through a checkpoint.

1. Weapons lab - #8 on the map

There are several reasons to visit the lab - to complete a side objective, murder a Kill List target and find an entrance to the Dome. Infiltrating the lab via the eastern entrance is the safest way. Still, you should watch out for the snipers and an enemy tank.

1. V2 capsule test facility - #10 on the map

This is one of the mandatory locations related to the V2 rocket project. After reaching the facility you must shoot at the capsule floating on water and then launch the rocket to sabotage it. There's an armory here as well.

1. V2 rocket launch pad - #11 on the map

This is one of the mandatory locations related to the V2 rocket project. You must reach the launch pad balcony, sabotage the rocket, then launch it from the building north of the platform. The rocket will explode in mid-air.

1. V2 rocket refueling station - #12 on the map

This is one of the mandatory locations related to the V2 rocket project. You must infiltrate the underground complex and find two valves which increase the pipeline pressure in order to cause an explosion. One of the entrances to the Dome is here as well.

1. The Dome - #13 on the map

This is the most important building in the mission. You can reach it via the main entrance, the weapons lab or the refueling station. The north-eastern part of the Dome holds the war room where you'll find the Kraken plans you're looking for.

Mission 7 – general information

The seventh mission of Sniper Elite 5's campaign tasks you with infiltrating a Nazi research facility in Massif Central in order to learn more about Operation Kraken. The map is divided into two parts - north and south. The parts are separated by a high wall and the checkpoints in the centre and the east. Fortunately there are still alternate paths you can use - the holes in the fences. Going through them lets you avoid combat at the checkpoints.

There are elite snipers scattered all around the map in various places that are difficult to locate - we've marked them on our map in red. Avoid staying in open space near the snipers and try to take them down from a long distance. Enemy vehicles, including a few tanks, also threaten you here. You can eliminate them if you want to (there are many Panzerfausts and explosives to be found here), but they can be avoided as well. Make sure you also watch out for the vehicles travelling via the main roads.

The default starting place is in the south of the map, which means you'll have to make a long trek to the mission objectives. Fortunately, you can also unlock alternative starting points and use them during subsequent playthroughs. Mission 7 has various main and side quests. We discussed them on the following pages:

1. Bypass the checkpoints - The checkpoints separate the northern and southern parts of the map. Our guide explains why the outposts are dangerous and lists alternate paths to the northern constructions and main mission objectives.
2. Sabotaging the V2 rocket installation - you must complete the main objectives regarding the V2 rockets production and testing. You can complete them in different areas in the northern part of the map.
3. Infiltrating the Dome - The Dome is the largest building on the map, found in its northern part. Our walkthrough explains how to infiltrate the Dome and find info on Operation Kraken.
4. Side missions - There are three side objectives in mission 7, all of them described here. You'll learn how to obtain intel about supply lines, investigate the Weapons Lab and destroy the castle radio tower.
5. Kill List Target - Christian Jungers - our walkthrough explains where to find Christian Jungers and how to kill him by dropping the V2 rocket onto him (optional challenge).

There are 19 secrets and collectibles in total to be found in mission 7. These are 3 workbenches, and various types of notes or memorial items. They are marked on the map.
