Continue further into the base, using cover and peeks to kill the many enemies in here. Also be sure to watch your back for the guard in the watch tower. Once all the enemies in the compound are clear, the allies will be secure. Now you will need to wait for the pick up and defend the truck in the process. Take up a position at the entrance across from the truck and watch as the enemies come across the bridge. Take them out as they approach and eventually two jeeps will arrive to help you out. Guard the allies as they run into the base and over to the truck and then watch your back as the truck rolls out of the base and off to safety. Once the truck is gone, you will need to go and destroy the enemy armor convoy.

Hang out at the bridge for a bit and have the team man the two gun emplacements. When the convoy arrives, they take out the jeep in front. Use the rpg to take out the tank behind it and then cross the bridge. There will be another tank and an APC to destroy now. Do so carefully and you will have the convoy destroyed. Now you will have an updated objective of destroying the artillery in the abandoned village to the north. Head there along the side of the road and eventually you will reach the tank just sitting there. Kill the few enemies around it and blow the top off it. Continue north and then head east and there will be some buildings there, one with an ammo box in front of it. Use it to fill up and continue to the next artillery. It won’t be far down the road, so when you see it, launch a rocket at it and then all you will need to do is clear out the rest of the enemies from the area and the mission is complete.

Mission Five: Industrial Complex

Lone Wolf time again. Make your way north and east and walk through the trees keeping to the right. The entrance to the mine facility will be directly ahead of you and will be swarming with enemies. There will be a few to the left of the entrance, around the outside of the wall, but the rest will be inside the compound. Clear out the few outside and then make your way in. Use the gun camera to shoot around the entrance and pop and enemy that tries to come to you. When the jeep comes, kill the gunner and then its passengers and then toss a grenade to finish it off. Make your way further into the mine and continue clearing it out and using the crates for cover. Once you have killed everyone inside, the mine will be secure.

Next up, lets head for the main facility. Make your way north and you will come to the entrance of it. Stick to the right side of the road on the hill there. When you get near the entrance, a tank will roll out and park on the road. There will also be a crap load of soldiers here. Call in an airstrike to take out the tank while you hide in cover. Once the tank is gone, the soldiers are enough to worry about. Again, take them out as you always do, using cover and peeking around the corners with the gun cam. When the entrance is clear, enter the base and continue flushing it out. Use the ammo box there, you’ll need it since this place is packed. Destroy the jeep when it comes and take out the gun emplacements in the center.

When you fight your way all the way through the complex, you’ll get a message that two tanks have rolled up. Exit the facility when everyone is dead and head along the grass to the right of the base. Kill the soldiers here and call in an airstrike to take them down. Once they are down, continue down the road to the last, small facility. When you reach it, head for the shelter across from the entrance and use it for cover to take out the guards at the entrance. When they are dead, head in and clear out the rest of the enemies. Once you have cleared it out, use the ammo box if you need grenades and then head back out to the shelter. Wait for the helicopter to fly by and pop it with a grenade to end the mission.

Mission Six: Bunker Hill

Ah boy, there’s a lot to do here. At least you’re not doing it alone this time. First up and to take out the pillboxes. Head west and to the south a little to find the first pillbox. Be careful as you approach it since it will tear you apart in a wink. You only have one shot with an airstrike so you may want to save it and take out the pill box with your RPG. Fire a shot into the opening and blow it up. Next you will need to repeat the process for the 4 other remaining pillboxes. Be sure to look for ammo boxes at the rear of them as well. Once you finally have all 5 of the pillboxes destroyed, it’s off to secure the bunker. Make your way west and as you get close to the bunker, there will be heavy resistance on the hill in front of it.

Use cover and clear the area out as you make your way closer and closer to the bunker. As you reach it, there will be two gun emplacements on each side. Pop the gunners there or fire in a rocket if you still have some. When they are dead, enter the bunker and start to clear out the remaining forces here. Use the ammo box there because once the soldiers are toast, two choppers will enter the area. Have a team mate drop one while you drop the other. Once both choppers are down, a final wave of soldiers will come rushing up the hill from the camp behind the bunker. Tag each one as they come from behind your cover and watch as the tank rolls in once everyone is dead. Destroy it and the mission will be complete.

Mission Seven: Government District

Oooh Demolition time! For this rather short mission we get to go blow stuff up. Head south from the start and make you way through the city streets. There isn’t much opposition until you reach the downed chopper. Once you reach the courtyard it is in, two choppers will appear over head. Take them out and then clear out the courtyard of enemies. Have someone plant the charge while you and the team take care of the rest of the enemies that will rush in to the area from the ramp to the east. Once the chopper is blown and the enemies are toast, head back the way you came and make your way to the north crash site.

Once you get close to the site, a chopper will appear in the sky. Either take it down or have someone take it down, but do it quickly. There aren’t a lot of places to hide from it. Once it is down, continue north and at the end of the street there will be a tank. Take it out and then head east to find the crash site. Clear it of enemies and then plant the charges. Once the UAV is destroyed, it’s off to the extraction zone. There is hardly any opposition along the way, but once you reach the allies, there will be a wave of enemies that come from each end of the street as well as the alley way in the center. Kill all the enemies that rush the allies on the street and the mission will complete.

Mission Eight: Bunker Hill Redux

For this lone wolf mission, no gun camera for you. Trust me you won’t need it. This is easily the hardest mission of the game. Not only is there a crap load of enemies and tanks to deal with once you reach the bunker, but you also can’t see a damn thing because the night vision sucks so bad. Throw on the night vision and head east down the road. Stick to the right of it and you will shortly come to the first roadside blockade. Clear it out of enemies using the trees for cover and make your way past it to the next. Make your way to the south and you will come across an enemy camp. Start popping off the enemies as they appear and once it is cleared, head due north for the second roadside blockade.

Kill the few enemies here and when all is clear, head to the east to meet up with the allies defending the bunker. Once you reach the bunker, get ready for an all out assault. There will be load of enemies that rush up to the bunker as well as tanks that will enter the area as well. As soon as you see the tanks enter and the brackets around them, send someone to take them down immediately. Always be on your toes and watch for enemies that are firing at you. Like I said, the night vision sucks and it’s very hard to see enemies with out them firing at you first. Be sure not to stray too far from the bunker as well. If you do, all hell breaks loose and you won’t live long enough to know what happened. Once the first wave of tanks is toast, there will be another onslaught of soldiers and then finally two more tanks will pull right up to the bunker. Destroy them as well and this hell of a mission will end.

Mission Nine: Launch Facility

Ah the gangs all back together again. Make your way forward and down the first hill will be some soldiers waiting. Take them out and a start to make your way to the left, west. As you climb the hill here, there will be two tanks and a jeep on the road ahead. Use cover and take out one tank that is moving quickly and then you can take your time to take out the second tank that is staying put. Kill the enemies in this area and the staging area will be cleared. Now it’s off to the launch facility. Head north and east along the road there and you will eventually see the facility ahead of you. Enter the main gates and there will be some UN soldiers inside helping you out. Be careful who you are shooting at and you will simply need to clear the base out of enemies now.

Find some cover with a wall at your back and tag every enemy that you can see. Once all the enemies are dead, you will be told that there is another group of enemies massing at the western gate. Head there and use the truck for cover. Take out the two tanks as they just start to enter the building. Try to take them out before there guns are shown. Once you kill the few more soldiers that remain, you will be told to head to the far end of the western road to clear out some enemies there. Make your way out of the facility and start towards the western road. Take out the two tanks along the road and then the small group of enemies on the left. The tanks can be taken out with out them even firing a shot at you, so be sure that you don’t run out too far ahead. Once the road is cleared, the mission ends.

Mission Ten: Canyons

From the get go, head south on the map and you will be required to find the UN soldiers that are pinned down. Make your way forward and take out the few soldiers along the way. There aren’t many until you reach the rock bridge across the canyon. Then they start to show up more. Make your way across the bridge and head to the left. Continue towards the objective and now you will come to a small area of buildings where the UN unit is being held up. Take out the enemies in the area and protect the UN soldiers. When all is said and dead, you will let the UN soldiers flee and you will need to go blow up a bridge to the far east of the map. Start to make your way there and follow the road. Watch at the intersections along the way for small group of enemies waiting there.

Continue along and when you see the truck at the side of the road, there will be a gang of enemies behind it. Blow it up and take out the enemies and continue on to the land bridge. Once you reach it, set the charge and head back down the road for it to blow. Now you will have the objective of clearing out the last two work sites. There is one to the far north and one to the far south. Head north first and when you reach the camp, start mowing down everything in sight. Kill everyone moving and once the area is lifeless, you will need to move to the second encampment. Along the way, you will meet very little enemy soldiers but you will run into a chopper. Take it down before it gets the drop on you and continue to the camp. When you reach it, again clear it out of all living enemies and the mission will end.

Mission Eleven: Badlands Fortress

Well this is it. The big payoff! From the start, make your way west and follow the canyon path towards the blue objective markers. You will first run into three soldiers waiting behind a rock and then you will come to a large clearing shortly after. When you enter the clearing, look around, all around, up and down for enemies. They will be perched up top on the canyon ledges as well as down on the ground. Clear them out here and then make a right at the fork to get to the northern UN point. When you enter it, the UN soldiers will be in the center of the area being pinned down. Clear out the enemies around the perimeter and then hold up a position in the center behind some cover. Enemies will now rush in from two entrances and try to take you out.

Pop them as they rush in and eventually the camp will be cleared. When it is, head for the south UN point and repeat the same process. Use the broken walls for cover as the enemies rush in down the two slopes to the west. Once you have killed all those trying to get into the encampment it time to find Rahil. Head north of your position to the red marker on the map and there will be a load of soldiers there waiting for you. Also as you enter, three choppers will fly in over head and attack. Use the squad to take them down and pop one yourself if you feel like it. Grab the ammo from inside the center building there to top yourself up. Once you do some heavy killing here, you will be told that Rahil isn’t here and fled to a canyon.

Follow the map to the next red marker and along the way you will run into some heavy resistance just before the canyon. Kill the gang of enemies that show up and the tank that joins them. Once the path is cleared of enemies continue to the canyon and make a right at the entrance. Immediately fire a RPG down the road to take out the tank there and load up another quickly to take out the tank behind it. Continue forward and there will be a few enemies on each side of the road. Look for Rahil, he’ll be the one with a circle under him. You can just kill him to end the mission and the game.
