Line 95: Line 95:
Whip out your sniper rifle, and go around the perimeter of the hill (since the last battle here, your squad has managed to scrunge up some trenches and foxholes), shooting mortar teams that are marked by objective stars. This is rather like the final objective of the Silo mission, except here mortars are usually manned by one soldier instead of two. Don't worry about the large numbers of Germans trying to swarm the bunker unless they're directly in your way or attacking you at the moment; your fellow soldiers can take care of them.

If you're on Veteran, you'll notice that the Germans that are inside the perimeter as well as outside try to shoot you a lot. If they're close to you, use your submachine gun to subdue them; even better, if there's a foxhole nearby, go in there so that there are only two possible directions that enemies can fire at you (you might even be able to get a mortar team or two with the MG-42s prepared in some foxholes)... just watch for grenades.
Once you've taken out about 20 mortar teams, your objective reverts back (silently--there's no spoken or written indication of any kind) to defending the bunker. During this brief respite, take in what you can of the surroundings of this hill; most importantly, note the positions of the two large collections of weapons (one near the bunker door has three Panzerschrecks, which you'll need later, plus some grenades and rifles; the other has grenades, BARs, and assorted rifles) and try to memorize them.
A few moments later, a massive artillery barrage starts pounding the entire hill--you need to either get inside one of the dozens of foxholes around the hill or the bunker itself to not get killed (the bunker is recommended because you take absolutely no shellshock from the barrage; also, you have a better spot to repel the initial attack after the barrage). When it lets up, the west side of the hill is breached and enemies start coming from that side with halftrack backup. Quickly snipe the halftrack gunners so they don't bother you (don't try to destroy them with charges, as this will only get you killed), and kill the invading Germans from a safe spot, such as the lowered area right in front of the bunker entrance or behind one of the crate stacks.
