War Front strategy guide - German campaign

German Mission 8: The Lost Arsenal

Hellmann has every right to be upbeat about Germany’s chances against the Soviets; after all, he managed to stop a battalion of the largest tanks the world has ever seen and even capture one to be studied. But Hardt is less optimistic. He’s heard from the Americans that the Soviets introduced another weapon during the last battle: Ice Spitters, tanks with the power to instantly freeze not only men and vehicles but even buildings. And he knows that the Russians are working to pack this same frightening weapon into bombs that can be dropped to freeze entire bases.

But Hardt knows of a way to counter Stalin’s technological wonders. Although the Nazi presence in Germany itself has been eliminated, many of its top scientists and leaders fled the country and set up a secret weapons research plant in Bergen, Norway. The technologies being developed there are intended to help the Nazis rise to power again, but Hardt has a different idea: steal the plans from the Nazis, destroy their facility, and use the research that was intended to fuel a Nazi insurgence to instead crush the Soviets once and for all.

It’s a bold plan….but luckily he has just the two men who can handle it.
