- STRATEGIES
-
- Enemy Mines
- Pick up the crates in the camp area. Press F1 to order the squad to follow Sarge, and
- travel directly east. Eliminate the first rifleman you come across standing on top of a
- butte plateau. Put your troops on defend and walk through the mine shaft in this area
- and kill the grenadier on the other side. Pick up the autorifle and the grenade box. Then,
- go back out of the mine and head south until you find another mine. Drop anything you may
- have in slot #3 (you should have explosives), and go inside. You will find a mine sweeper.
- Select the sweeper, and head south, and then east, and then north through a minefield. When
- you see the Blue Spy, switch to your rifle and start firing. A Tan flamethrower will charge
- you so make sure to kill him. Then, kill the spy and get his note.
-
- Ghost Train
- After grabbing the note, quickly head into the Tan camp and grab the health power up
- before going back around to the mine where you found the sweeper. Drop the sweeper,
- and pick up the explosives you had left there and head north west to the train bridge. Use
- an explosive or a bazooka to destroy the train bridge in the northwest corner of the map.
- Then go to the mine in sector F,2 and collect a flame thrower. Go to the train station and
- clean out the train station of all Tan. You will want to approach from the East and kill the
- first Tan Bazookaman who appears as you get to the station. After killing all the other
- soldiers, find the Tan soldier in sector C,1. He has the key, but he is surrounded by
- mines. First, shoot him, then get the Minesweeper to clear the mines. Collect the key to
- win.
