Operation Flashpoint: Red Hammer: Walkthrough

Red Hammer

Objectives:

• -missing-

Location: Lighthouse in east coast

Time: ???? hours.

This is straightforward fighting. You will encounter lot of enemies, but luckily you're attacking with force. Commanders seem to be rushing first and get killed often. You will run out of ammo due to number of enemies, find nearest KIA comrade and take his ammo.

Occupation

Objectives:

• Find the communications center in Meaux and end the rebel uprising here
• Curtail the militia meeting in Saint Philippe
• Capture and secure the Militia Training installation
• Secure the airfield

Location: Tyrone

Time: 0930 hours.

First clean up Meaux. There will be a lot of civilians. Don't shoot anybody without a gun. After Meaux you will get a promotion and need to lead your men to Saint Philippe. In the fields you will encounter a number of enemy soldiers. Clean Saint Philippe from enemy soldiers. Instruct your reinforcements to ride the truck near the Militia Traincing center and wait for them to arrive. Attack with full force and clean the camp. Mount your men into the Ural and drive it north near to the airfield. Stop the truck at the gate and dismount. There is a number of enemies defending the airfield, clear them out.

Babysitting?

Objectives:

• Ensure Angelina errives safely in Montignac, in time to meet her flight.

Location: East coast, north of Chotain

Time: 0530 hours.

Get into ammo truck as driver. Follow the front truck quite near, if you fall behind, mission will fail. You will be ambushed in Fb44, fight the enemies. Bad news is that you are the only survivor and there is an enemy tank. It is very passive, but you need to find the RPG from a dead comrade and destroy the tank (or if you are in luck, the RPG soldier survives the ambush and destroys the tank for you). The ammo truck is out-of-order and the only working truck is locked. The civilian in the building next to the ammo truck has the keys. Drive the civilian truck next to ammo truck and Angelina will be your passenger. Drive to Montignac. There will be two soldiers in , but they are unable to harm you.

Repulsion

Objectives:

• Defend the village from hostile forces.
• Prevent any expenditionary force from escaping.

Location: Saint Pierre

Time: 0850 hours.

Two choppers of NATO soldiers will appear. You need to fight both. It is very important that you have Strela in your equipment. In the beginning the tent has ammo for Strela. You need a total of 4 shots and taking a moving helicopter is pretty much impossible. During the events 2 two trucks and 2 cars will pass Saint Pierre. Only the first truck will have enemy soldiers on it, the others are civilians. Wait of the relief force, mount a truck and drive north.

Beachhead Assault

Objectives:

• Eliminate all enemy forces in the vicinity of the beach

Location: Beach near Chapoi

Time: 0730 hours.

You're on board of a BMP, when it hits the beach get out and fight the enemy. When beach is cleaned, a new mission will be assigned to you. Go to chapoi and destroy an AA gun there. When you arrive at AA gun you need something to destroy the thing. If you were unlucky to not have any rockets, there is a soldier with Carl Gustav launcher. Take that from killed soldier. After destroying the AA gun, head back to the beach.

Under Fire

Objectives:

• Destroy the two Vulcans.
• Destroy the other two Vulcans.
• Report to the base at Houdan.

Location: Houdan

Time: 0730 hours.

During this mission, protect your number two. He is the only one with RPG, three rounds to destroy four vulcans. He is also enemy's #1 target. In the NATO camp there is an ammo tent with a LAW launcher. A vulcan tank can be destroyed with a number of hand grenades, but you won't be able to carry that many. During the mission there will be acute ammo issue. You will confront so many enemies, that eventually you will run out of ammo. My solution was enemy M21 and their ammo tent.

Drive the truck to Gd60, the shelling gives really nice atmosphere, but is harmless. In Gd60 there will be an enemy machine gun. Flank the machine gun nest from right with your truck, drive near the bushes and disembark. Beware the sniper on top of the hill, so a Dragunov is definitely your weapon of choice. If you're not fast, he will snipe a couple of you. Also beware the NATO patrol boat which appears while middle of the fight. Approach the Vulcans from the enemy camp side, if you go to the top of the hill, the vulcans can shoot you and your men directly. The second Vulcan will get angry after you destroy the first one. Mount the truck and drive to Ge70.

Dismount the truck before the left crossing to military base which is right next to the road. This set of Vulcans one is a lot easier than the first ones. You can do a surprise attack and have the tactical advantage due to your elevated position. Also both Vulcans are clearly in sight for your RPGs. The remaining enemy soldiers will come after you, so make sure to snipe a number of them before mounting the Ural and getting back to the base.
