Mission 14: Heart of the Reich

  1. Death Card: This level's card is located right at the beginning. When you get out of the metro station, turn left and go down the metro stairs across the road. The "Six of Clubs" is at the bottom.
  2. You're armed with a PPSh-41 and a SVT-40. Follow your mates down the road and into the alley to the left. There's some light resistance at the clearing, but you can avoid it by crouching and moving left along the wall. Flank any remaining enemies outside the building and approach the whole in the wall.
  3. Checkpoint Reached

Before going inside, shoot the soldier at the top of the stairs. Then, move in and crouch behind the wooden barrier to your right. Use the PPSh-41 to shoot down the enemies in front of you. Watch your back, as another enemy may appear on the stairs.

  1. Cross the street into the next building. Shoot the sparse number of enemies in the library and move forward.
  2. Jump through the window and into the plaza, following the trench to your left.
  3. Checkpoint Reached
  4. Your comrades will storm the area ahead. Use this chaos to approach the machine gunner on the right side, by the stairs leading to the raised platform. Then, instead of taking the stairs, move to the right of the platform. Flank any enemies you can see, then press A to climb the wall.
  5. Stay crouched as you move through this area, shooting enemies as you go. Stay to the right and run to the bench with a whole blasted through the seat back. From here, you can see first Flak88 cannon you must destroy. It's well guarded, so toss a grenade near it and pick off the remaining enemies with the SVT-40.
  6. Run up to the cannon and hold X to plant a charge. Get back before it blows. You still have three more to go.
  7. Turn left and move to the tank. Stand on the right side of it and use the SVT-40 to shoot the enemy. Warning: Grenades come often in this area. Keep some distance between you and the tank and stay alert.
  8. Once the enemy forces are diminished, move forward into the field ahead, and your soldiers will follow. While they occupy the enemy, go to the Flak88 cannon on the left and plant the second charge.
  9. Checkpoint Reached
  10. A Russian tank will advance along the path. Get behind it for cover after it explodes, and while your comrades fight the enemy, dash to the small building on the right.
  11. Use the SVT-40 to shoot enough German soldiers ahead to easily dash to the cover on the right. The third Flak88 cannon is around a corner to your right. Use the PPSh-41 to shoot any direct resistance, then quickly plant a charge and slip away.
  12. By now, the Russians have flooded the area. Again, this makes for a viable distraction while you retreat and head to the remaining Flak88. Stay low and plant the charge, then go to the wall that borders the German opposition and lay prone. Rejoin your comrades once the smoke clears.
  13. Checkpoint Reached
  14. The area where the third Flak88 cannon once stood makes a good entry point to the war zone ahead. Start by clearing out enemies using both your weapons -- enough to guarantee safe passage to the building in front of you.
  15. Keep your PPSh-41 handy as you charge the building, and be ready to immediately shoot any German soldiers inside at close range.
  16. Stay low as you move through the building, using your SVT-40 to kill any direct threats. Be sure to look out all the windows in the building to make sure no one's gunning for you.
  17. When you get to the end of the building, start shooting soldiers who are on the steps leading to the Reichstag. Keep them at bay until your comrades arrive.
  18. Checkpoint Reached
  19. Turn around and look for the ladder leading up to the second floor of the building. Climb it, and look to your left. There's a soldier in the building across the way, aiming at you. Take him out, and make sure there aren't any others.
  20. In the same area, there's another ladder to a slightly raised platform, great for sniping. Use your remaining SVT-40 ammo to shoot as many soldiers round the Reichstag as possible.
  21. Once the weapon is empty, look around for the weapons rack, on the wall between you and the Reichstag. Swap the empty SVT-40 for the Kar98K return to the raised platform. Shoot as many enemies on the steps and surrounding area as you can. Expend all the ammo and then return to the weapons rack.
  22. Swap the empty Kar98K for the Panzershreck. At the top of the Reichstag, there are three windows, including one wide window on the far right. Shoot this window with the Panzershreck to defeat the enemy inside.
  23. Below the raised platform, at the window facing the Reichstag, there's a PTRS-41 sniper rifle. Swap the Panzerschrek for the rifle, and pick off the remaining soldiers in the top windows of the Reichstag. You may have to leave the raised platform or get out of the building entirely to get a good view.
  24. Expend the rest of the rifle ammo on enemies that are backed up all the way to the Reichstag entrance.
  25. Use your PPSh-41 to take out the remaining enemies. You can even go back to the second floor of the building to get a better angle.
  26. Once the enemies are cleared, one column of the Reichstag will fall. Be sure to stay away or it will crush you.
  27. Chernov will storm the building, but don't follow too close -- a German wielding a flamethrower will end his life, and you don't want to share the same fate. Take out this last enemy to complete the mission.
