05 - Their Land, Their Blood

Feel free to not kill them, if that somehow clears you mind of all the killings you will commit after. You don't have to do anything in the fields, just move up, and feel free to grab anything by swapping your pistol; the Gewehr being one such gun. At the river kill enemies on both sides, then get across and feel free to go left or right, but I'll go left because it's easier not to get lost.

Some frags should clear the barrier part, then go pop heads at the other end. You need to cautiously move up to stop the flow of enemies, and swap your mosin for a MP40. Head up to the crispy area and pick up the MG42, and keep the MP40. Reload it and move up the trench and then go right along the trench and up to a defensive position. From here you should be able to just crouch and pick off many enemies while taking little fire. Kill the guys in the trench below you, but the stream of enemies from under the bridge does not stop until you move there. When advancing stay low and be ready for a enemies from a tiny bunker to the right, and inside is a different FG42. Just take it easy and stay low as you move under the bridge, wait for the checkpoint and your allies to follow before moving any further.

*NOTE: The MG42 and FG42 and different guns.

For the next field your goal is to take out four Panzers with the many bazookas lying around, and they are everywhere. First run up the trench and take cover behind the house. There is a window on the left and for now just take out the German infantry you can see. When attacking a tank make sure to just work on one at a time and to aim for the back, or at least not the front, but you don't need to get behind them. Take a Panzerschrek and shoot the nearest tank, and it should then move back a bit. You should then be able to use that window to take it out. Then shoot the other tank beyond the house, but this time you'll need to go around the back of the house and shoot it through the field of wheat. Be sure to grab a fresh one in the shack.

Now take cover behind the first burning tank and look to the left for the third tank to roll up. Crouch because I believe that improves your accuracy, and what you will do is first one shot and then quickly fire another, but hide behind the take after the second because the Panzer will fire back at you, even stand back a bit.

The next thing you need to do is maybe drop the bazooka and pick up a light gun so you can run to the right, around the fence, and into the trench where you will go prone until the checkpoint clears, and maybe an enemy or two will be nearby, so be ready. Wait for your team to meet you, be sure you have a bazooka, and look to the house. Run up to it with your gun ready as there may be lone enemies inside, usually no more than two in the living room. Go up the stairs in here and go by the window and look down to see the Panzer below you. There is really no rush, but try to quickly take out the tank with two hurried shots, otherwise you'll have to relocate and try again.

When the last one is out, keep your bazooka in hand and move to the barn. Be ready to toss a molotov and take point in the little trench on the side of the barn. A fifth Panzer will come out, but so will two enemies. You want to toss a molotov a little after the tank comes out, but just stay in the trench and hope the enemies either don't get to you in time or your friends take them out. All you have to do to the tank is just press the fire button without aiming, since it's right there in front of you.

*DEATH CARD 5: Inside the barn the tank bursts from, check a stable for the card.*

Go inside for fresh MG42 ammo and then go get on the back of the tank for a nice little ride from which you will get off on your own. Pick up another MG42 and then get out your Panzerschrek. From the little road blocks take out both towers inside the compound, which should trigger the checkpoint. When you step inside the biggest concern are the many grenades which rain down, so don't try to toss them back, just run away to cover. It's best to just work your way to the right, around their flank, but staying at the entrance and using the molotovs also works if you don't mind the stress.

When you cross into the second part a truck will come down the road, so either toss a frag under where it stops or shoot a rocket at them. Make your way right or left, but right is easier. There should only be a single enemy, so take him out, then use your bazooka to take out the two towers.

When you move there there will be one more checkpoint. Now you need to work your way up to the right. You can either stay down here and take out the turret gunner straight up, or try to wind your way through the clutter up to the right and the frags to flank them. It seems like just getting up to that stage will trigger the end of the level, but I know that on veteran it seemed like there were a lot of enemies firing back. Either way, just advance up and the level will end.
