Starting out
You're stuck with ../Iron Man/, ../Captain America/, ../Spider-Man/ and ../Wolverine/. Not the world's greatest team; but, serviceable – especially for early in the game. Fight off the initial wave of attackers, which are all basic melee types. This is a good time to experiment with the different characters: Iron Man is mostly a ranged fighter; Cap and Spidey are melee fighters with a bit of range to them (Cap's thrown shield and Spidey's Web Mace) and Wolverine is pretty straight-up melee. When the soldiers finally yell, "Pull back!" you'll be able to advance east.

You'll run into your first set of gunners at the end of the street. Take them out and turn left and continue north and then around to the east. At the next corner you'll encounter another large wave similar to the one you beat back at the beginning of the map.

Head south and jump up a couple of ledges to the right and then head left (east) across the bridge. As you come down from the bridge, you'll encounter a raised gate guarded by a half-dozen or so soldiers. Take them out and bash the gate to bring it down. Defeat the soldiers behind the gate; then, look in an alcove just to the left of the gate for Dossier: Latveria.

Fighting with Fusion
Head north and go up the ramp to your left and around the corner to a major battle arena. You'll be introduced to Fusions. For the trophy/achievement "Tactical Training", perform a Clearing Fusion here (e.g. Iron Man + Wolverine). If the Fusion doesn't take all the robots out, you'll need to clean up what's left.

After the battle, collect the Audio Log in the center of the arena to initiate the next part of the map. You'll have to head west and jump down into the street and keep going west. At the end of the street, turn left (south) and pick up a Boost, then backtrack and go up the ramp. Beat off the guys at the top of the ramp and then jump down into the street beyond. For the remainder of the map, you'll want to try to avoid the sparking wires lying in the streets.

Go north up the street. At the intersection, climb the ramp to your left and go along the north side of the ledge, jumping the gap, to collect a Boost. Fight your way east along the street to a plaza with a statue of Dr. Doom in the center. There's another gang of robots and soldiers here, so you'll probably want to break out a Clearing or Guided Fusion. (For "Tactical Training," you must use a Fusion here.) After the battle, if the Doom statue is still standing, knock it down to uncover another Boost. Go down the street to the church and fight off the robots.

Electro
Enter the church at the end of the street for your first boss battle against Electro. Refer to the generic boss battle strategy. Pound on Electro until you have a Fusion Star; then, target Electro with a Targeted Fusion. For "Tactical Training," use Spider-Man and Wolverine.

At two points during the battle, Electro will recharge himself at one of the capacitors on the side of the room. When he does this, quickly move in and smash the capacitor; Cap or Wolverine using basic attacks are good for this. Return to the generic boss battle strategy until Electro fizzles out.
