TACTICS/TIPS
For certain missions, you will fight as one or two members of your unit.
Choose wisely — your tactical decisions have a direct influence on the
outcome of these missions. You can also decide the order in which to
accomplish mission objectives. For example, to stop the advance of a group
of Nazi tanks through the ruins of Stalingrad, you can use the scenario’s
tactical advantages (stock up on explosives, use narrow passes to set up
ambushes, etc.). You can decide where, when and how to attack the enemy.
RADAR
Check the radar to get information on your surroundings
within a range of approximately 18 meters. Enemy view range
is 15 meters, so besides receiving directions you will also see
enemies in your radar before they see you.
❑
The radar also shows the locations of allies (blue),
checkpoints and objectives. If objectives are on the same floor as you are, they
appear in bold. If they’re on a different level, the location indicator is dimmed.
❑
The range of the radar increases while you’re using the binoculars.
❑
The radar may not show the positions of certain enemies (snipers). You must
discover their positions by some other means.
MEDIKITS
Displays the number of medikits in your possession.
SELECTED SECONDARY WEAPON/ITEM
Secondary weapon or item equipped/amount of item you have.
SELECTED WEAPON
Your selected weapon/amount of that weapon’s ammo you have.
CHARACTER
Displays the Commando you currently control, along with
the character’s
Stance
(crouching or standing),
Health
and
Stamina
.
CROSSHAIRS/WEAPON SIGHT
Use the crosshairs and other sights to aim your weapons.
A crosshair automatically appears whenever you have a firearm
selected; a sight appears for knives and piano wire. Crosshairs/
sights turn red to indicate enemies or blue to indicate allies.
If nothing is in your sights, they remain white.
PICTURE IN PICTURE
Provides intelligence on events surrounding the development
of the mission. May also display hints on possibilities
available in your area. Following a picture-in-picture update,
targets show up automatically on the radar.
TIMED OBJECTIVE
In specific missions a counter appears above the radar. If time runs out before you
complete the mission, you will have failed the objective.
