![]() ![]() Send HMG team and one of your squads to the crossroad behind the barn (on the north). Boys from Baker Company you've saved a moment ago will join you so you will have four squads. After the fight secure nearest munitions point, collect two MG-42s, light and heavy (replenish the manpower of a squad which will take HMG). Now these two paratroopers squads can throw grenades. At the same time paradrop one squad as game suggests on the road to the left from a barn and hide them behind the cart or wall there. Fire-up people you have behind the right wall and rush to the right, then take cover behind the second low wall next to the Germans. One of enemy squads will react by manning MG-42 standing in front of a barn, rest of them will hide behind the walls. When approaching this spot from the south place your soldiers behind low walls and let them shoot Jerry straight on. It's time to accomplish next secondary objective, to save boys from Baker Company besieged by Krauts in nearby barn (yellow square on the map). When all is done here move forward, to the north. Then build an observation post on captured point. Īfterwards seize nearest munitions point with one squad (it's first of secondary objectives), cover your man doing this with second. Then jump closer to the enemy gun and disable it by throwing satchel charge into it. When you reach enemy AA gun emplacement take positions behind the sandbags - from there you can patiently shoot the Krauts securing gun or kill them with grenades. Fire-up your guys by left-clicking on suitable icon in orders menu, you can also replenish their manpower by clicking on icon with white cross in the lower right corner of the screen (additional paratroopers will then join the squads). Send two paratroopers squads you have at your disposal at the beginning through the swamp to the first AA gun emplacement on the east - take a route marked with green circles on suitable picture. Your first of primary objectives in this mission is to destroy german AA guns emplacements, you should neutralize all of them but sometimes you'll have a chance to capture one of them and use it against ground targets. Watch the breathtaking movie full of lights effects and it's time to play. In some cases you can be surprised by enemy infantry squads entering the battlefield off-map. ![]() Note: In this mission expect small german counterattacks on almost every captured by you position. Eliminate road patrols (award: Parachutist Badge).Set up Convoy Ambush & Destroy the Convoy I am not sure that the game "keeps track" of the accomplishment of secondary objectives, so it's not "that important" to achieve this particular one. The last bunker is hidden away to the far northwest corner of the map. Ěchieve the secondary objective by clearing all four bunkers.Additionally, this AT/AA gun can be used to clear out a majority of the Axis defenses, including taking out the two 88 batteries on the ridge. From here, you can blast away to clear the western path from the beach and obtain your first medal. Throw a grenade at the big AT/AA gun and then capture it. The medal on this mission can be obtained after the "big explosion" cut scene by clearing the western approach to/from the beach.After you get more used to playing, you will look back and wish you had obtained more of these medals, so why not start focusing on them now?! You can view these medals obtained on the main screen under the subcategory Rewards. IMPORTANT: Medals can be obtained for each of the 15 missions in Company of Heroes.(It's very easy to overlook this sniper in the heat of battle!) When you first sight the sniper on the beach, turn on his invisibility function before moving him forward or he won't make it to the shingle. Ělternatively, there is a sniper you can utilize to neutralize many of the machine gunners in this mission.Once your engineers throw the satchel charge at the main machine gun emplacement at the top of the hill, the next cut scene will occur and lead to the next part of the mission. Storming the cliffs of Normandy will give you practice utilizing the grenade and satchel charge ability of your units.That's the big white "plus" sign you see once you choose a squad. Later in this mission, when squads fall below six, you can call in reinforcements to fill the vacancies.Let me just point out a few things on Mission 1 to help get you started. So just getting started with Company of Heroes? Congrats! This is a great game! And the cut scenes to Omaha Beach have to be one of the most classic (and intense) in gaming history!
