The above screenshot presents the map of the location, where there seventh mission of the game takes place. It is the airfield, taken over by the enemy, which consists of the airstrip, several hangars and a number of the underground bunkers, which you access later into the mission. On the map, there have been the most important places marked (mission objectives, main paths, etc.), as well as the whereabouts of the collectibles.
Apart from that, you there are colorful lines and dots on the map:
- The red dots symbolize the whereabouts of the enemies on the surface. Note - some of the enemies patrol around the area, instead of staying put in one place. The enemies from the final part of the mission (protecting the allied vehicle, have not been marked on the map. This is so, because they are automatically alarmed and they take random positions.
- The orange dots signify the whereabouts of the enemies in the underground bunkers, which you explore later into the mission. Note - some of the enemies do not stay put and they patrol the bunkers.
- Blue dots signify the places where you encounter the enemy snipers. Note - the snipers may appear on the map only after some time into the mission so, try to check put on the marked places, on a regular basis.
- The green dot symbolizes the spot in which you find the only "stationary" armored vehicle.
- The green lines symbolize the routes of the enemy vehicles (armored vehicles, the tank), which you deal with during the mission.
Mission preparations
During this mission, you will have to destroy the highest, so far, number of enemy vehicles. It is a good idea, of course, to take dynamite along, as well as landmines. Still, you do not need to overload yourself with explosives only, because there are many ammo crates all around the airfield, and just as many Panzerschreck RPGs. You definitely need to arm yourself with a sniper rifle with the best available scope, because you are going to need it, e.g. to take the Long Shot.
