Mission One - Ominous Rumors Part 1 - Escape Go out into the hall, being sure to pick up the revolver. Follow the hall and go past some bars, where you will find Dr. Z. Use the knife to avoid attracting a guard. Continue following the hall to where you will hear a conversation. Three guards are there. There is a rifle by the radio that you can grab. Proceed up the stairs to an outside passage. Go down it and enter the door. There is a guard at the end of the hall on the spiral staircase. Go up the spiral staircase one level and enter the room, where there are two guards. Be sure to grab the items on the table and jump out the window (carefully, so you don't lose health). There is a guard with a mauser shooting; go up the stairs and get the mauser. Now you're by a building. Follow the walk to a door, and enter. There is one guard inside and three shooting up from a lower level where the floor is broken. Jump through the broken floor to the lower level. (It's best to get rid of the guards on the lower level first). There are two doors; one is at the end of a short hall and leads outside, and the other leads directly to a long hall with suits of armor. There is a guard in the hall with suits of armor. There is a short hall that leads off the long one on the right, and the short hall has two doors. There are 5 guards in these two rooms. They may or may not come out. Proceed carefully, and reload if necessary. Exit--Go to the room with the large fireplace, large table with food and the bulletin board. (It's on your left as you entered the short hall). There is another door leading out of it into another hall. Follow this hall and others through doors to the exit. One door in this area leads to a room with health and ammo. If you go back through the long hall with suits of armor, and outside across the small courtyard (1 or 2 guards), you will find another room with health and ammo. (This room has grenades and a secret). Secrets: 7 1. At the bottom of the spiral staircase, kick the wooden barrier and find ammo. Exit by pulling the lever and going out the raised door. 2. Go back up the spiral staircase 2 levels. This is the room where you jumped out the window. In this room there are a radio and binoculars on a table by the far wall, health and ammo to the right of the table by the window. The wall opposite from the radio has a diagram. Shoot the diagram to reveal treasure. 3. In the building near the guard with a mauser, jump through the holes in the floor to a lower level. You are in a short hall facing a door with another short hall and a door on the right. Behind you is a stone wall. Kick the wall to access a secret room. 4. Go to the long hall with suits of armor. Go to the short hall off of it. There are large rooms on either side of the short hall. They both have secrets. Go in the room to the right and turn facing its door. The candlestick on the left is crooked. Straighten it to reveal a secret behind the tapestry left of the fireplace. 5. In the room to the left in the same short hall--shoot the picture of Hitler to reveal treasure. 6. By the broken stone wall that has a secret room, there is short hall and door. (This is right under where you jumped through the broken floor). Go out into the small courtyard. Across the courtyard is a small room with ammo and grenades, and four bunks. Throw one grenade between two of the bunks, where the floor is slightly broken. This will reveal treasure. 7. In the hall on the way to the exit, on your right, are two subtle sundial designs on the wall. Push the second design. The first design opens on a secret area. Seven secrets is a lot. But most of them are treasure. When I was first learning the game, I would have much rather had ammo, food and health. Part 2 - Castle Keep Go in the door to your right. There is one guard in a room with a table, food and a fireplace. There is a barred area with resources to your right just before you enter the room. Later you'll come to a yellow lever that will open the bars. You can come back for the resources. Go back out. There are three guards at the boottom of the stairs. There are three more in the hall, two on a platform above the hall. To the left of the hall there is a room with health. Go down the hall and up the spiral staircase to the door to a courtyard. There is one guard. Cross the courtyard and enter the next building's lower level. Follow the hall to the platform you were just under. There are two rooms and two guards, one near the platform and one in the far room. The near room has food and ammo. The far room has ammo. It also has a large yellow switch you pull to open the barred room with supplies behind it, near the start. Go back out into the courtyard and enter the building's upper level. There are two guards, one above the courtyard on a stone bridgeway with a mauser. Go inside and to the right. Enter a small room with books and a large cabinet. The cabinet has health. Exit through the other door and go down the stairway to the wine cellar. There are two guards in the wine cellar. Be sure to get them so they don't come up behind you later. Then go to the short stairway. You can see a raised area with a table, and there is another area with a table and some suits of armor to the left. There are a number of guards; proceed carefully. Go down another short stairway. There is an area with several small rooms and a number of guards. There are barrels in the middle of this area that will explode if you shoot them, so this will be helpful. There are a lot of resources in this area, as well as two secrets. Find the bars on the stairway (not the one you came down). Push the button to make the bars slide up, then proceed up the stairs. You are now on the raised level with the large table and food. There is one guard who comes through a door on your left. Go out the door and follow the hall to a door that leads outside. You can see the stone bridgeway there, and there are a lot of soldiers on it. You can use the machine gun there, then go across this small courtyard and enter two rooms that have a lot of resources. Go back inside and through the building, back to the courtyard you entered it from. There are three or four guards, some with mausers. One is above the courtyard on the stone bridgeway. Exit--When ready, go under the stone bridgeway and through a large open doorway. (The double doors here were closed earlier). Follow the passage to two doors, one in front of you and one on the right. Exit by the one on the right (you will go down a long stairway). Secrets: 4 1. The first is on the first room to your right. Shoot the flag above the fireplace. There is treasure in a depression high above the mantle. The depression is covered by a panel. To open the panel, touch the picture of a soldier next to the bookcase in the room. The picture will slide aside; touch the lever underneath it. Push a chair up to the mantle with the back facing it, to jump up and get the treasure. (This is hard to do). 2. The second secret is in the wine cellar. Push a button between the first two kegs in the room. A wine rack opens to reveal a large secret room. 3. Secrets 3 and 4 are on the lower level. Exit the wine cellar and go down two short staircases. You are in the hall with the explosive barrels, where there were a lot of guards. There are a number of small rooms down here. There are two rooms on your left. One room has a large table with food, and some ammo and health. Shoot the diagram on the wall, to the right above the table, and you will find treasure. 4. The next room is the farthest one right in a small hallway, and has a door that slides up when opened. It is small and has a barrel against the left wall. Shoot the barrel. It will explode to reveal a large secret room. Part 3 - Tram Ride To the right, there is a room with food and ammo. Use as needed. You will find the mauser rifle useful on this level. Go straight and down the stairs. Open the double doors. There are a number of guards and technicians with hand guns. Proceed carefully. When you are able, go through the door just to the left of the stairs you came down. There may be a guard right behind it. Go down the stairs, where there are more technicians. Pull the lever to provide power to the tram. Go back up the stairs and collect resources as needed. By the tram, there is a door to a room with food. To run the tram--push the red button next to it. Get on before it goes. But--this will only get you to the tower halfway to the station. Ride the tram to the tower, where there are two guards and a tech. Climb the ladder to the top of the tower, then climb down the ladder into the inside of the tower. In one corner there is a machine with a dark red lever (which is hard to see). The machine is on your left as you come down the ladder. When you see the hand sign, push the lever. This will open a trap door to another room under the floor. There is one tech in the room. Go down into the room and push the yellow lever; this will provide power to the tram. Return to the tram, push the red button beside it to start it, and ride it to the station. There is a little room with resources at the station, to your right as you approach. There are five men to contend with. Enter the station and go to the upper level. Jump from the walkway onto the chain link platform. There is a grate opposite the ladder. Kick it and jump down. Keep jumping and crouch to get through the ducts. At the bottom, there are three guards to your right in the big room, and four or five more in the other big room to your left, behind the fancy metalwork door. When you are successful, you will send a fake radio message to another guard station (the game will do this for you). Exit--Go into the big room behind the metalwork door. To your left are resources and to your right is the exit. Don't shoot Kessler, the underground guy! Secrets: 0 BUT--if you're playing XBOX Tides of War version, there are TWO secrets, which I can share thanks to Giles Knight, who found them: 1. At the first tram station, where you initially get on the tram, go into the 'control room' (in front of where the tram arrives). Smash the left window and climb out onto the ledge, then jump to another ledge to your left. Turn around and jump onto the 'roof' of the tram control room (it looks like a chain link fence). Smash the ventilation shaft in front of you and you will find some gold. 2. The second is at the end destination of the tram. After going into the 'power room,' go up the ladder and into another room that leads out to and above the tram. (This is the room where the guard was shooting at you with the mauser rifle when you were on the tram). Head to the wall that the tram is facing, jump the guard rail, and follow the small ledge along and to the left. Near the end you will come to a vertical 'pipe.' Climb up and off into a small area. There is a small hatch at the end, which is locked. It's unsure how to open it, but shooting doors or locks often works. Nice work, Giles! |
