Objective: Assassinate Gernott Hermann
Enigma Codes: 8
Special Requirements: Assassinate the 15 Überkommandants
Once you've assassinated the 15 initial Überkommandants, you unlock the mission to take out the sixteenth and final Überkommandant. He’s in a secret bunker. This mission is especially tough; if you haven’t upgraded your weapons yet, do it now.
This mission starts you off in a subway tunnel at Basement Level 1. Most of the areas are dark, but you have a flashlight attached to your weapon. That cone of light is all the illumination you get for most of the mission, so your peripheral vision is practically nil. Advance across the first subway station to the tracks on the other side. Take a door on the right into a structure. The only way out is via crawling into a duct and then dropping to a lower level.
Follow another duct for a short distance, then drop to Basement Level 3. This level contains several ÜberSoldaten. It’s tough to get them in the dark; try rushing them and hitting them with a hatchet. Explore the area, then take some stairs up to Basement Level 2.
Explore the level. Expect SuperSoldaten and more ÜberSoldaten. Defeat them. Since there are no refueling/recharging stations for your heavy weapons, use the weapons dropped by the SuperSoldaten to refill your own, or carry and use the enemy weapons. Traverse this area to reach some stairs on the far end, which lead down to another part of Basement Level 3. From there, you can get to Basement Level 4.
Two stairways lead down to Basement Level 4. Look for enemies such as SuperSoldaten or ÜberSoldaten next to the doors at the bottom of the stairs. Engage them through the doors, then let them come to you. If you enter the room at the bottom, you’ll end up surrounded. By drawing your foes up the stairs into the narrow corridors of Basement Level 3, you gain an advantage.
When the enemies stop coming up the stairs, move down into Basement Level 4. By now, there should be few enemies remaining, if any. Even so, take a careful look around for inactive ÜberSoldaten in alcoves. Destroy them with a hatchet to keep them from activating if the fighting starts up again.
From either of the side control rooms, head downstairs to Basement Level 5. These passages lead to a large area filled with enemies. Once again, don’t rush in; lure them out instead. There’s also a Lasergewehr turret down there, so it’s best to clear out the majority of everything else before you deal with it. Expect Soldiers, Laserhunds, SuperSoldaten, and ÜberSoldaten.
After clearing out Basement Level 5, advance past the turret and follow the passageway around until you reach a ladder. Before you go any farther, make sure you’re stocked up on ammo, especially for your heavy weapon. When you’re ready, climb the ladder all the way to the ground level. You’ve found the last Überkommandant. However, he has some protection—a Zerstörer.
As with other big enemies, you must destroy two limbs. Don’t go down to the lower level where the Zerstörer is located. Instead, fire at it from the higher platform and take cover behind the wrecked automobile when necessary. Keep at it until the Zerstörer is destroyed. The Überkommandant comes for you then. Kill him and collect the final Death Card.
