Detailed walkthrough for Company of Heroes mission 3, covering objectives, enemy positions, unit tactics, and strategies to earn the Army Sharpshooter Badge.
Walkthrough
- 1Get your squads to cover. The squad on the right should flank the building and toss a satchel charge from relative safety. This completes the first objective.
- 2Capturing the church can be tricky. Clear out buildings one by one using grenades and satchel charges. Grenades are more resource-efficient for buildings with few enemies, while satchel charges are effective for demolishing structures.
- 3Across from the church, a building has an MG42, and to the left is an AT gun. Use the fire-up ability to rush and grenade the AT gun. Use another squad to fire-up and toss a satchel charge into the building while the MG is distracted. Garrison the church and upgrade it to field barracks.
- 4Train two or three snipers. Destroy the wires to the left of the church. Clear the area with snipers, watching for enemy snipers in buildings. Lure them with your Airborne squad, then use your sniper to counter-snipe. Proceed with two squads of airborne and the sniper pair around town, capturing points.
- 5Train a mortar crew. Using your sniper as spotter, bombard the garrisoned building left of city hall. Use your third sniper to clear the area in front of the building being bombarded. This will help achieve 30 sniper kills for the medal.
- 6Capture all points on the map before attacking. Your two Airborne squads and sniper pair should build OPs along the way and stop to the right of city hall, waiting for the main attack.
- 7In this area, two buildings are garrisoned with snipers. Move your mortar crew to the right munition point and bombard these buildings. If possible, acquire the motorcycle. Once enemy snipers are eliminated, use your snipers to engage enemies in the open.
- 8Capture AT guns to prepare for a panzer counterattack. Have your snipers take out enemy AT guns, MG 42s, and mortar crews. Your AT guns should target garrisoned MGs by city hall. Use Airborne squads to support AT guns by tossing satchel charges.
- 9An armored car will appear from the north. Destroy it. The mission ends once all armored cars are destroyed and all axis forces retreat north.
