Chapter 2 - No Man Left Behind - p. 2 Sniper Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
In a nearby hut you'll find Dragunov sniper rifle (but I suggest to stay with your current sniper rifle), a medkit and the satchel charges (#11). Similar items are located in the hut with HMG emplacement on the veranda.

When going to the edge of the veranda of the first of these huts, you should be able to notice two soldiers having a chat on a sandy road leading to the village you have to get to (#12). Take them out from your current position - there's no need to get closer and to risk a detection or a gunshot wound. Then move to their dead bodies.
When you're close to these corpses (#13), the HQ contacts with you saying via the radio, that the convoy of enemy vehicles is going to depart from the village soon, in order to get to the place where Rodriguez is being held. That's also a great occasion for you to get to Rodriguez! You have to get to one of these trucks, in order to hide on its board and get to the kidnapped agent in this smart way.

The position of the truck (in the village) is indicated on the screen with a white dot - move along this sandy road towards this direction. You won't go too far though, because after a while you'll see in the distance on this road a checkpoint with a toll-bar. There's one or two soldiers patroling along this toll-bar (#14). Go prone on the road and kill both, one by one.
Then proceed towards this checkpoint, but don't go in the middle of the road - instead of this, use the left roadside to avoid detection. When closing to the village it's worth to press the F5 function key to quickly save your game status. This village is full of the enemies (#15) and I wouldn't recommend starting an open fight with them.

Instead of doing this, try to move along the village peripheries and stay close to the left roadside of this sandy road leading through the settlement. Eliminate (using your silenced pistol) only these single bad guys that may wander into your path on short distance (#16). Go crouch to avoid detection.
On the road, near the parked truck you have to get to, kill two soldiers (the second is located closer to the vehicle). (#17) Afterward, if you don't see anyone else in the nearest vicinity, sneak to the truck and jump on its board (at the rear of the vehicle).

The truck will transport you to your destination, passing the enemy patrols remained unaware of your presence. After several hours this truck will stop and you'll find yourself outside the vehicle, on another sandy road leading to one more fishing village (#18). Shoot dead a guy standing between other vehicles parked on this road and presenting to you his back. You have to run to the valley - you didn't expect that the truck will bring you right under Rodriguez's nose, did you?
You may sneak to the left in order to go around this fishing village - go crouch or even prone, if needed, and sneak along the shore (along the beach). (#19) You don't have to attack the enemies patrolling the village (two guys stand also on the veranda of one of the huts built on stilts), although it is possible to kill'em all without raising the alarm. But such an action demands a lot of sneaking, so let's not include here this unnecessary description. Eliminate only these opponents you aren't able to by-pass.

Go round this settlement and head for succeeding white dots displayed on your screen till you get to another fishing village (#20).
