Note: You
won’t be using Bravo
Squad unless something unanticipated happens to Alpha… IE
your demo expert gets K.I.A… etc.
Kits: It’s your preference. What ever you shoot best
with is the way to go. I happen to like using a suppressed
weapon, so I will mainly be going with the SOCOM. Again,
it’s up to you.
Overview:
This is the final show down in the
Ghost Recon campaign. This mission has a little of everything
in it; assaulting,
destroying enemy armor, and relieving fellow U.S. troops.
The terrain here shouldn’t cause much of a problem,
because it’s of urban type.
Saddle up, the final showdown begins!
Here you will see the route this walkthrough will be guiding
you through.
Of course, there are multiple ways of completing
the mission, but this one seems the most straight forward.
Walkthrough:
This mission starts with you being inserted in the Northwestern
section
of the area. You don’t need to worry
about tangos until
you start moving. Start moving South
East in-between the two
buildings in B5, and C4, then
stop, and observe your surroundings.
|
Up
ahead you should see this bus. Around the corner behind
the bus is where you will engage in your first action.
Slowly walk up the bus around
the backside of it, and eliminate all your foes.
Be advised, there are
civilians in the area, so watch what you shoot!
Now you should have a clear
view of where we will be going to next. |
|
This alley will lead you to
the first objective,
which is to relieve the pinned down troops. |
|
Move into this
position. The U.S. troops are located
in the building ahead of you, so try to not shoot in
that general direction.
The tangos are around the
corner, and will open fire quickly. Eliminate the
tangos as soon as possible, to avoid casualties. |
|
Once you’ve rescued
the troops, don’t expect any
help, as they will run out of the area.
Hopefully
you’re following the path listed above, and you should
see this building |
|
Enter
it, but be careful. Once you are inside, tangos lurk
about!
Quickly take
down this three man patrol before they open fire
on your squad. Then start into the hallway and move
to the stairs that are ahead, and to your left. |
|
Before
you get to the stairs, your Threat Indicator (if
you’re playing with it enabled) will light
up red.
The tangos it’s referring to are above
you. Eliminate
them ASAP! |
|
Hopefully you’re still on the right path. (No
pun intended.) Once you’ve gone up the stairs,
switch over to your sniper, and proceed due north.
Soon enough, you will come across these mean looking
fellers:
I think you know what do with them… |
|
Once your
at the end of the hallway, switch over to your demo
expert. Why? Because
once you get outside, there will be an unfriendly
Russian tank out there, which needs to be destroyed.
If you
don’t see it at first, wait a minute or so. |
This
is the end result:
One
Russian made tank with smoke billowing out of the top.
This
next part in the mission can be quite tricky, so be careful.
Position your sniper so
he’s looking between
a destroyed APC and the building you just come out of.
Tangos should start
coming out from around the corner, so pop them as they
do. If they don’t come
out right away, slowly work your way to the corner, but
do not go around it. Be careful going around the corner, as there is a machine
gun nest, a three man patrol, and another tank. Eliminate
them as swiftly as possible.
Once you’ve done that, the
last couple minutes of the mission are a cakewalk. Destroy
the last tank, and mop
up the last few tangos.
Following this plan, this was my mission outcome:
Hopefully this walkthrough of Red Square helped you, but
more importantly, you had fun completing the mission. As
stated before, there are a few different ways of tackling
this mission, so you can always go about it in different
ways. Good job and good luck with Desert Siege and Island
Thunder.
