Feat Complete:Power Up
Street Sweeper
Frost Giants have clogged up the streets with ice blockades, and S.H.I.E.L.D. troops can’t get through. The Avengers have been tasked with clearing a path through the blockades, and Cap with his sweeping Shield Assault is the best soldier for the job. When you get close to the ice blockades, throw Cap’s shield and it will chip away at the ice while damaging any Frost Giants in its arc. Now that’s doing double duty!
Feat Complete: Break the Ice
You can find the first blockade past the Avengers Tower, through the park, and up the next block. Destroy the first set of ice barriers and move on to the second set where Frost Giants spawn to guard the ice. Destroy the Giants before smashing the ice, and then wind through the streets splintering ice and Giants’ skulls. When you reach the bridge, Fury alerts you that the streets are finally clear of threats and S.H.I.E.L.D. can move in.

Bridge May Be Icy
On this next mission, Nick Fury informs you that a busload of civilians is trapped on the bridge by marauding Frost Giants. You want an Avenger with a strong ranged attack for this battle, such as Hawkeye with Rain of Arrows or Open Fire, which gives him plenty of firepower to do the trick.
Jump on your S.H.I.E.L.D. Motorcycle and zoom over to the bridge. Approach the bridge with caution as Frost Giants will begin spawning and charging down at you. Always focus on the closest one and pick it off before it gets into melee range. When groups attack, rely on an area-effect attack like Hawkeye’s Open Fire. Backpedal if you need more space to plant arrows in your foes.
Make your way up the bridge and avoid the falling debris and eroding pavement. Destroy the ice barriers as you go, and perform an Air Strike on the slab of concrete in front of the bus to smash it down and fill in a hole in the road. Once you break all the ice trapping the bus and defeat a new group of spawning Frost Giants, the bus will slowly begin rolling down the broken bridge road.
Escort the bus down the road. As Frost Giants appear, pick them off at range, and if a group collects in one spot, use an area-effect ability like Hawkeye’s Rain of Arrows to punish them. Avoid the holes in the road as you blow up the ice barricades that slow down the bus.
Don’t let the Frost Giants pound away on the bus. Keep clearing ice blockades and Frost Giants until the bus rolls past the stone arch leading into Manhattan. Fury will alert you when the civilians are safe and your mission is complete.
Shaking the Wasp’s Nest
Wasp’s apartment building has been encased in ice. Normally, that wouldn’t be a big deal, since so is the rest of Manhattan; however, a horde of Frost Giants are assaulting the building too. Even that wouldn’t be too bad, but large Frost Giants have been added to the mix, and they are a serious challenge. Large Frost Giants can throw spears and use shields to block your attacks. It takes someone like the Hulk to deal with the vast amounts of Frost Giants in this mission and break down the large Frost Giants’ defenses and take them out.
Head down the street from the earlier bridge mission and you’ll find Wasp’s apartment building on the left. Smash through the ice blocks encasing the walls, then shift your attention to the Frost Giants as they spawn. Shatter ice and frost until the corner of the building is free and Wasp flies out to greet you. The whole Avengers team shows up to talk with Wasp, and she agrees to do some surveillance for you as you begin to unravel Loki’s plans.
