Call of Duty: WWII eGuide The Campaign Mission 06: Collateral Damage

Objective: Reach the Theater

Use the tank’s machine guns on the fleeing infantry. While moving down the street, watch the buildings at the end of each street as Panzer-equipped German soldiers appear in the blown-out windows. Use the tank’s heavy cannon to destroy the structures to ensure infantry don’t get any easy shots on the convoy.

Keep your eye on the building to the left as your convoy continues forward. More Panzer soldiers will appear on the second and third floors; use the machine gun to eliminate this threat.

The buildings on the other side of the street are now full of rocket launcher enemies. Blast the windows using the tank’s cannon and clear any survivors using the machine gun.

Be sure all buildings are clear before going any further. There is one last wave of enemies just around the bend; they’re holed up in the far building to the left. Blow up the building and roll down the street after your lead.

The German defenses in this part of the street are light. One lone machine gunner cuts into your tank around a bend. Take him out and keep up with the convoy. After rounding the last corner, a massive German Panzer tank arrives and blows up the lead Sherman tank.

Panzer Battle

It’s time for a tank battle with the Panzer! The Sherman’s cannons are no match for the front armor of the enemy tank. You must flank the tank by navigating around the buildings and get behind the Panzer.

As soon as the lead Sherman goes down, drive your tank as fast as possible through the street to the left. Gun it all the way to the back of the area, then circle back to where your ally went down. This should put you in a position behind the Panzer. Unload on the Panzer using the tank’s cannon until it blows up.

With the first tank down, proceed to the “Climb” objective indicated on the HUD. Approach cautiously, though, as it’s a trap!

As soon as the Tiger tank busts through the building, retreat to the central area. After doing so, return to the area where your ally was destroyed. There are two Panzers in pursuit. Use the Sherman’s better maneuverability to execute the same trick used on the first Panzer: sneak up behind the tank and unload your cannon until it blows up.

Avoid going back to the “Climbing” area. Patrol the buildings and try to locate a tank moving away from your tank. Don’t open fire unless you have a good bead on the tank’s rear. After hitting the tank once, it will quickly turn to face your tank. Try to unload two shots, but if you miss or graze the tank, you may need to retreat between the buildings and try again.

Your tank’s crew are excellent spotters, which makes it easy to be aware of the position of the enemy tanks via on-screen objective indicators. Press the Objective button to see the direction the tank is moving. Always head to the back of the tank’s direction to ensure you approach from the rear.

Try to avoid taking potshots at the tanks from a long distance. Although it’s quite possible to score a lucky hit, the cannon’s accuracy will make it more difficult to get a direct shot. Additionally, firing from a distance allows the Panzer to turn and fire its own shots. Try to sneak up close to the tank so you can get off two direct hits and finish it off.

With the third tank down, it’s time to move in and help Daniels’ squad. Roll to the hill indicated by the objective marker and cautiously climb it. A large number of infantry are on the other side. They have a MG42 and a couple Panzerschreck soldiers. Blast their position with a cannon shot, then follow up with the tank’s machine gun. Daniels’ position is around the next corner.
