Mission Intel
Date: 7/26/1944
Location: Marginy, France
Journal Entry: Can’t believe I’m fightin’ alongside Zussman again. He’s holdin’ up all right, considerin’ we just blasted through miles of Hedgerows. You’d think Pierson might go a little easier on ‘im. You’d be wrong.
Objective: Take the Church
No time for elaborate planning; Marigny is a warzone. It’s your squad’s job to advance on the enemy and take their emplaced defenses in the nearby church.
Activate Aiello’s special ability to get a mortar-marking grenade. Follow Pierson’s directions to flank right. Move around the back of the right wall and toss a smoke grenade inside. There are Germans on the outside, as well as firing from windows. The M1928 SMG isn’t the best at long-range, so don’t try to shoot at any enemies who are positioned beyond the near side of the structure.
When it’s mostly clear, crouch down and cross the street. Look for an enemy weapon and use it as your alternate weapon. As you approach the house, use a rifle to pick off enemies firing down from the second floor. Next, switch back to the SMG (or similar weapon) and defend against any remaining Germans inside the building.
With the building clear, you can ignore the second floor and head back out into the street on the other side. This leads to the base of the church. The Germans have a heavy defense set up along the bottom. Find cover behind the stone wall and shoot any Germans who appear.
When orders arrive to rescue a wounded soldier, crouch low and press the Activate button to drag the soldier into the safety of the nearby building. Shortly after saving the wounded soldier, a German halftrack arrives.
As the vehicle comes into view, focus on picking off the soldiers inside the halftrack. When the threat is cleared, run up and use the mounted machine gun to eliminate the Germans in the destroyed building across from the church.
