Obejctives
----------
Primary:
1) Get to the enemy base and destroy ammunition depots.
- The piles of crates and barrels in the middle of the German base are what
you need to destroy. Toss a few grenades at them until it says the objective
is complete.
2) Destroy long-range artillery.
- Well, you actually just need to disable them. The two on the eastern side
will be fairly easy, but the three on the western side with the other two
vehicles near them will prove a little trickier. Thankfully, the Germans in
the two trenches have anti-tank grenades, so load up on them before you head
over there.
3) Dmitry Shevtsov must survive.
- If he dies, you fail.
4) Vasily Mikhailov must survive.
- If he dies, you fail.
Secondary:
1) Find dynamite on the enemy's positions.
- It's in a crate near the left trench. All you have to do is pick some of it
up, though it seems to be a little glitchy - if it doesn't work with one
soldier, try it with another one until it works.

Walkthrough
-----------
Immediately send your group of Soldiers off to the west into the trees for
cover. Find Dmitry Shevtsov, then raid your other four members for equipment.
Take all of their grenades, bandages, and small machine gun ammunition, then
start taking out the German soldiers that are patrolling near the area (make
sure you remember to set your men to Hold Fire, or you'll likely have some
unfortunate encounters with German troops).
First on your agenda should be the two self-propelled artillery units on the
eastern side of the map. Approach them from underneath using the treeline for
cover, then toss an anti-tank grenade at the closest one. Use the chaos caused
by the first grenade to toss a second one at the other artillery piece, then
quickly hose the German soldiers.
Move westward using the treeline as cover and take care of the small German
tank on the road above the trenches (it might not be there yet, but as you
approach the area, some Germans will jump into it). The trenches are fairly
easy to take out if you toss grenades from above them, but watch out for random
Germans coming down from the town. You should also be careful not to damage
the crate above the left trench - it contains the dynamite you need to complete
the secondary objective. Grab some of it, and if it doesn't complete the
secondary objective, grab some with a different soldier. If that doesn't work,
well... I don't know what else to suggest, it seems to be a little buggy.
Raid the Germans in the trenches for anti-tank grenades - you'll need a lot of
them to finish off the self-propelled artillery pieces and tanks on the other
side of the river.
The two mounted guns north of the left trench are your next target. Head all
the way to the water, then approach the guns from the west where the small
concrete wall is. Toss a small grenade over the wall at the southern gun, then
duck for cover. Deal with any soldiers that come around the wall to attack
you, then toss a second grenade at the other gun. Deal with the mounted
machine guns if they didn't get taken out from the grenades, then get up and
move on.
There might be some stragglers in the town, so deal with them now if necessary
(including the ammo truck, which might still be moving along the road). The
German base is fairly easy to deal with if you attack it from the west. Take
out the guard towers first, then hide from the vehicle inside the compound by
getting on the side of the building where it can't see you. Defend against the
infantry onslaught, then toss an anti-tank grenade into the base if you can
reach the vehicle. If not, lure it closer to you with some machine gun fire.
Take care of the rest of the guard towers and any other soldiers that might
still be around, then shoot the lock off of the gate if you haven't already.
Toss light grenades at the pile of crates in the middle of the compound to
complete the first objective, then defend against the light German
reinforcements that show up.
Your final target is the hardest part of the mission. Head south until you're
lower than the small German tank south of the self-propelled artillery, then
cross the river to the western side. Sneak up on the tank from the trees to
the left of it, then take it out with an anti-tank grenade. If you attracted
the attention of anything near the artillery, run like hell. If not, crawl up
to the top artillery piece and destroy it with an anti-tank grenade from the
bushes. Definitely run like hell after that one, every German in the area is
probably going to come after you.
If you can hide in the trees for long enough, the other two self-propelled
artillery pieces will eventually stop moving. Try to pick off as many soldiers
as you can, then take out another one of the artillery pieces. Repeat the
process one more time after retreating, and the mission will be complete.
