Hướng dẫn chơi commandos behind enemy lines

Bên cạnh đó mỗi nhân vật đều được trang bị 1 khẩu súng ngắn, để giết kẻ thù khi bị phát hiện đột xuất. Điểm nhấn của trò chơi là hoàn thành nhiệm vụ được giao, cho nên không cần phải đấu súng với kẻ thù khi không cần thiết.

Commandos is a unique type of game requiring careful planning and execution. Unlike other real-time strategy games, you have only a handful of men which you must take through twenty linked missions. If any die during a mission, you must play the mission again until you can complete it with all men alive.

Each Commando has his own special skills. The Green Beret is a silent killer and the only one who can carry barrels. He can also move bodies and his decoy distracts enemies. The Sniper is pretty much good for only one thing-shooting soldiers at long range with his precision rifle. However, this is a necessity in many of the missions. The Marine is the only Commando who can swim and operate water craft. He also can kill silently with his spear gun. The Sapper can carry grenades and explosives as well as a trap capable of killing a man instantly. The Driver is the only one who can operate land vehicles and man gun emplacements. He can also carry a machine-gun during some missions. Finally, the Spy can put on a German uniform and walk among the enemy, distracting them when necessary or poisoning them. He can also move bodies out of sight. It is important to learn the skills of each Commando and use them appropriately.

In many of the missions, your men are not only outnumbered, but also outgunned. While each carries a pistol, the Germans are carrying rifles or machine-guns. It takes three shots from a pistol to kill a soldier. Therefore, avoid gun duels because you will more than often lose. Also, stealth and surprise are your best weapons. Since the pistol will alert the enemy to your presence, choose silent methods of killing the enemy. You usually do not want them to know you are around until the very end of the mission when things begin exploding and you are making your escape.

One of the keys to a successful mission is patience. It is important to study the actions of the enemy. Before you kill someone, see who can observe your deed and could sound an alarm. Most missions require you to kill the enemy in a certain order to avoid being discovered. Also, save the game after every phase and quick save after every kill. You do not want to have to start a mission over from the beginning because you made a minor mistake which got one of your men killed.

This guide includes a brief strategy for each of the twenty missions with key tactics described. However, for a more detailed walk-through of each mission, including maps and an order of killing the enemy, you should get the official strategy guide.

Mission 1

Baptism of Fire

Objective: Blow up the relay station on the northwestern island.

Team: Green Beret, Marine, Driver

Phase 1:Capture the Boat

Your team of three Commandos begins separated from one another as well as from the objective. You must get your team together and then cross the river to the island where the relay tower is located. To do this, you will need a boat.

A boat is located on the center island in the east. The Marine must silently kill all three guards on this island, deflate the boat, and put it into his backpack. Swim across the river to the northeast, silently take out the two soldiers there, then on to the dock on the southwest island to wait for the other two Commandos to join you.

Phase 2: Get the Rest of the Team to the Boat

Now you must get the Green Beret and Driver to the boat. The first is located in the center of the map, near the southern edge, while the latter is in the southeast corner. Order the Green Beret to take out the guard in the southwest when he is walking away. Climb over the wall using the pick and kill the guard by the house when the other two guards are not looking. Carry the body out of sight and place the decoy in the middle of the road, near the house. Activate it while hiding behind the house. While the guards are distracted by it, the Driver must jump into the truck and then run them over while driving fast. The coast is clear, so everybody, into the boat.

Phase 3: Destroy the Relay Station

Row across the river to the northwestern island. Hide behind the southwestern building. When the patrol of three soldiers is not looking, have the Green Beret move an explosive barrel around to the northwestern corner of the building and place it near the path of the patrol. Back off a bit, then fire the pistol at the barrel when the patrol walks by, blowing them all up. Kill the machine-gunner and then move another barrel over to the relay station. Shoot at it to destroy the objective and the mission is complete.

Mission 2

A Quiet Blow-Up

Objective:Blow up the fuel depot within the walled compound

Team: Green Beret, Sniper, Marine, Sapper, Driver

Phase 1: Clear the West Shore

There are three soldiers on the west side of the river. The patrol each walks allows the three to support one another, so you must be careful in taking them out. The best plan is to first eliminate the center soldier. Send the Sapper towards the building northwest of your starting position. Place the trap near the corner, then hide behind the building. The soldier will see the footprints in the snow and come over to investigate, hopefully walking right into the trap. If not, the Green Beret will have to knife him. Quickly remove the body and kill the other two soldiers silently. There is a patrol boat that motors up and down the river, so you must be sure all of your men are hidden as it sails past.

Phase 2: Infiltrate the Walled Camp

Before you can cross the river, you must secure the other side. To do this, the Sniper must shoot the soldier patrolling the riverbank to the southeast of the compound as well as the soldier on the wall. Wait until the patrol boat passes, then the Marine can row two of his teammates across at a time in the boat. The Green Beret must climb the wall and lower the ladder so the rest of the Commandos can enter the compound.

Phase 3: Destroy the Fuel Depot

While destroying the fuel tanks may not be too difficult, you must also get all of your men to safety. Kill both of the soldiers in the compound silently and then load all of the Commandos aboard the truck, except for the Sapper. The Driver should move the truck over by the gate. Be sure to have the Sapper raise the gate. Once all is set, the Sapper must place one explosive next to the fuel tanks and the other in the eastern corner where it will take out the barracks on the other side of the wall. Wait until the patrol on the outside to the east is halfway along their northern march. This will put them away from the escape route when the explosives go off. Quickly get the Sapper onto the truck and drive off down the road to the southeast. Exit the map once the fuel tanks are in flames.

Mission 3

Reverse Engineering

Objective: Blow up the large dam

Team: Green Beret, Marine, Sapper, Spy

Phase 1: Get to the River

Just to get into this mission, you must first eliminate six soldiers. Your team begins in the northeast. The most difficult part is the patrol of three men. Set a trap along their path as well as the Green Beret's decoy. After the first is killed by the trap, activate the decoy to distract the other two. Then the Marine must move quickly to knife one and then shoot the other with the spear gun. Kill the other three soldiers silently and get the Marine to the river's edge.

Phase 2:Acquiring a German Uniform

The Spy needs a uniform in order to infiltrate the power station across the river. One is located on the clothesline in the camp to the east. It is the Marine's job to clear out this area of all enemy soldiers. First eliminate the three on the outside and then those inside the camp. You must kill each so others do not see you or the bodies and raise the alarm. Once all is clear, grab the boat outside the camp and row the Spy in to get the uniform. Bring the rest of the team to wait in this camp for now.

Phase 3: Getting the Explosives

Row the Spy to the spot where he first boarded the boat and drop him off. Send him across the dam, and into the power station to shut off the electric fence. Then he must make his way to the southeast corner of the station and kill the soldier there. This makes the path clear for the Marine to bring the rest of the team across the river, staying as far south as possible. The Sapper can cut the fence and let himself and the Green Beret inside while the Marine takes care of the soldiers along the riverbank. You must use the Spy to distract soldiers while the Green Beret kills others in order to clear out the entire power station and get the two sets of explosives. You can leave the patrol in the northwest as well as the machine-gunner near the dam, but everyone else must die.

Phase 4: Blow up the Dam

Before you can blow up the dam, you must first destroy the bunker covering it. With the Marine and Green Beret in the boat nearby, the Sapper places the first charge behind the bunker then runs for the boat. Row to the other side of the river and wait. An alarm will sound and reinforcements will come pouring out of the barracks. However, wait for them to look the other way or use the Spy to distract them. Then row the Sapper to the base of the dam and place the second set of explosives. Row to the east side of the river and get everyone out of the boat. The Spy can then make his way across the dam, even after it is damaged, to a waiting truck. Get everybody aboard and the truck will take them to safety.

Mission 4

Restore Pride

Objective: Blow up the German headquarters building

Team: Green Beret, Sniper, Marine, Sapper, Driver

Phase 1: Advance to the Bridge

Your team of Commandos begins in the southwest corner of the map. There are 23 enemy soldiers on this side of the fjord, all of which must be eliminated before crossing the bridge. However, if you can get the Driver to the tank, it will make this phase a lot easier. The Green Beret can take care of most of the soldiers southwest of the railroad cars. Then have the Sapper throw a Grenade to take out the patrol of three and any others who come to investigate. Remember to save a grenade for the final phase.

Phase 2: Get the Supplies

You must get rid of the soldier on the other side of the bridge. If he sees you, he will hop on his motorcycle and rush for reinforcements. Shoot him with the Sniper and then have the Green Beret hide the body by the nearby trees. Get the rest of your team across the bridge. The Green Beret, along with the Sapper and his trap, can then clear out the remaining soldiers in the southeast. Supplies have been airdropped to the eastern edge of the map. Wait for the patrol to walk past before sending the Driver to grab the machine-gun and take all three men down. Get the explosives and bullets for the sniper rifle. You will also need a truck. When one stops at the railroad crossing, kill the driver and take it. The Sniper must then take out the remaining three soldiers outside of the headquarters walls.

Phase 3: Infiltrating the Headquarters

When the patrol between the two walls is walking away, sneak all of your Commandos, except the Driver, inside to hide behind the building in the north. Then park the truck in the gate of the inner wall. Get the driver out and blow it up with a grenade. This will prevent reinforcements from getting into the inner courtyard. Kill all the soldiers around the headquarters and then blow it up. Finally, you must send all of your men to the patrol boat at the dock which will take them to safety.

Mission 5

Blind Justice

Objective: Blow up the radar station in the mountaintop base.

Team: Green Beret, Spy

Phase 1: Get to the Cable Car

Your two Commandos begin in the northwest. The Green Beret must silently kill the soldiers in the immediate area as well as clear a path down to the phone box in the south. He can then use the phone to distract the soldier near the clothesline, giving the Spy the opportunity to get the uniform and put it on. Then eliminate the rest of the enemy at the base of the mountain except for the two patrols. Use the Spy to distract while the Green Beret uses the knife.

Phase 2: Destroy the Radar Station

Now that the area around the cable car is clear, send the Spy up the mountain while the Green Beret hides near the lower station. The spy must kill the soldier at the top station. Then give lethal injections to the two other soldiers who are just standing. Hide their bodies behind the barracks, out of sight of the patrol. Head back down in the cable car and pick up the Green Beret. Wait until the patrol near the clothesline is walking away before heading up the mountain again. They can see the Green Beret in the cable car and will begin shooting.

At the top, the Spy distracts the patrol while the Green Beret hides in the snow. The Spy must then kill the soldier at the top of the map while the patrol is headed south, then quickly run after the patrol and distract them so they continue looking south, just past the barracks. The Green Beret must now place a barrel next to the western corner of the barracks and another near the radar. Place a third in-between the two, then hide him in the snow near the autogyro. When the patrol walks past the barrel near the barracks, the Spy shoots it. This will destroy the barracks and kill the patrol at the same time. If any reinforcements arrive, kill them as they are next to barrels. Finally, shoot the barrel near the radar to blow it up and then get both Commandos on the autogyro which will take them to safety.

Mission 6

Menace of the Leopold

Objective: Destroy the Leopold Cannon

Team: Green Beret, Sniper, Sapper

Phase 1: Infiltrate the Outer Defenses

Your three Commandos begin in the northwest. However, you will only need the Green Beret for this phase. Kill the soldier near your starting position, then the one in the western corner of the building by scaling the wall. Climb back down and make your way back into the bombed-out building via the ladder on the east side. Clear out the entire building of enemies as well as the surrounding area for a total of ten kills for this phase.

Phase 2: Approaching the Inner Compound

The Green Beret must now eliminate the two soldiers near the tents. Stay silent and watch out for the patrolling half-track. Get the rest of the team into the action. The Sapper should place a remote control explosive along the half-track's path, at the northernmost point. Position the sniper near the building, along the road. Detonate the explosive as the vehicle drives over it. A couple of soldiers will come to investigate. The Sniper can take them out, but be sure to save two bullets for later in the mission.

Phase 3: Clearing the Inner Compound

With the western area clear, move the Sniper down to the southern map edge. Kill the soldier on the roof of the headquarters as well as the one standing behind the HQ, by the railroad cars. Send in the Green Beret to clear out the remaining soldiers in the camp area, careful to avoid the watchful eyes of the patrol to the northwest.

Phase 4: Clear the Avenue of Escape

Before you set your explosives, you must first clear a path for your escape. While watching the patrol, kill all of the soldiers in the northern part of the map near the rails and in the snowy area. Then get all of your Commandos over by the cannon, hiding on the northern side.

Phase 5: Destroy the Leopold Cannon

You still have four more enemies to take down before you can set off the explosives. Kill the three in the nearby building, followed by the machine-gunner. The Sapper must plant the last explosive next to the cannon. Get the entire team to the other side of the building and detonate the explosive. A truck will approach to pick your men up. Get them aboard and it will take them to safety.

Mission 7

Chase of the Wolves

Objective: Set off explosives on the two submarines at dock.

Team: Green Beret, Marine, Sapper, Driver, Spy

Phase 1: Outside the Village

Your Commandos begin separated into two teams. The Green Beret and Marine begin north of a fishing village. Kill the two individual soldiers and the patrol. The best way to deal with the patrol is with the Marine. As they are walking away, run up behind them and knife the rear soldier. Then, before the other can respond, pull out the spear gun and shoot him.

Phase 2: Clear the Village

Now your two Commandos must clear out the village and get the rowboat. Most of them can be taken out one at a time. However, near the barracks is a patrol. After killing the individual soldiers in the area, sneak the Green Beret into the village and place an explosive barrel near the door of the barracks. Shoot it with the pistol as the patrol walks past to kill them as well as any reinforcements. Quickly hide since a couple of soldiers from the southwest will come to investigate. Kill them before they can return to their posts. With the barracks destroyed, you can use pistols if necessary. Eliminate any remaining soldiers near the boat, then send the Green Beret with an explosive barrel to take out the patrol near the lighthouse.

Phase 3: Retrieve the Explosives

The other three Commandos begin in the northwest. The first thing they must do is get a uniform for the Spy. Wait until the soldier near the clothesline is walking away, then run in a put it on. When the enemy turns around, he will see an German officer instead of a Commando. Then use the Spy to distract the patrol in the northwest so the Sapper can retrieve the explosives.

Sabotaging the U-Boats

While this phase is not difficult, it requires a lot of waiting, timing and carrying dead bodies. The Spy must kill all of the individual soldiers here, beginning with the one by the clothesline. Kill the one patrolling near center while the Green Beret distract the one by the eastern corner with the decoy. After each kill, carry the body through the gate and deposit it near the door of the building east of the gate. Once you have killed four of the individual soldiers, kill the fifth by the water when the patrol is heading southeast. Then quickly run to distract the patrol near the gun at the end of the compound while the Driver and Sapper enter through the gate. The Sapper must plant explosives near the two guns, western first, and then get into the half-track with the driver. The Driver can use the machine-gun to kill the patrol and all reinforcements from the barracks. When all is clear, the Green Beret and Marine must row up to the ramp, pick up the rest of the team, and take the Sapper to the platform between the two U-boats. Place the explosives near the stern of the subs, near the torpedoes, and then get away in the rowboat.

Mission 8

Pyrotechnics

Objective: Blow up the water tower and fuel storage tanks at the German supply depot.

Team: Green Beret, Sniper

Phase 1: Clear the Plateau

This is a tough mission, but not impossible. Your team begins surrounded. The Green Beret will take out most of the soldiers here. The decoy will come in very handy. Kill everyone on the plateau except for the gunner at the east end. Save him for later. When killing the two soldiers near the ramp down, be careful you are not seen by any of the soldiers below.

Phase 2: Infiltrate the German Supply Base

Now bring out the Sniper. Shoot the soldier near the barrels at the westernmost part of his patrol, so his body will be out of sight. Kill the rest of the enemies near the tents and then have the Sniper shoot the soldier on top of the barracks when the soldiers on the fuel tanks are not looking. Finish up the phase by taking out the remainder of the soldiers in the southwest. Before making a kill, be sure no one else can see you during the action.

Phase 3: Preparing for the Big Explosion

Now the Sniper must shoot the soldier standing by the wall, next to the road, south of the gun on the plateau. Then hide the Sniper near the western map edge. When one of the soldiers in the depot goes to investigate, kill him with the Green Beret. Eliminate the remainder of the guards inside the depot and then set up the explosive barrels as illustrated so you can set off a chain reaction from outside of the depot which will destroy all of the objectives.

Phase 4: Crescendo

Send the Sniper to hide by the wall near the road where the body of the soldier he shot is located. Then move the Green Beret up the plateau to place an explosive barrel next to the gun. The rest happens very quickly. When the soldier on the bridge is at the east end, blow up the gun and move the Green Beret down the cliff side with the pick. As the bridge soldier runs past the Sniper, shoot him with the pistol. Then kill the machine-gunner with the pistol as well. Finally, shoot the barrel next to the water tower to set of the chain of explosions. A jeep will arrive to pick up you team when the mission is accomplished.

Mission 9

A Courtesy Call

Objective: Destroy the communications building, the antenna, the weapons store, the command post and the bunker

Team: Green Beret, Sniper, Sapper, Driver, Spy.

Phase 1: Infiltrate and Secure the Base

This mission is fairly easy and a good break after the last one. The Green Beret, Sniper and Sapper begin in the south while the other two Commandos are in the north. Luckily, your Spy saved the German uniform from his last mission. Send him through the east gate and across the yard to kill the three soldiers in the western fenced enclosure with poison. Next, enter the base and poison the soldier near the bunker and hide the body behind it. Do the same for the soldier patrolling near the bunker. Then kill the two soldiers near the east gate and hide the bodies outside the walls. As the Spy distracts the patrol, rush the three southern Commandos into the weapons store. Kill the last two individual soldiers, then bring the Driver into the base.

Park the fuel truck right in front of the center tank, while the Sapper places his explosives near the bunker and the barracks. Place the trap in the center of the eastern gate to reduce the outside patrol when it enters the base. The Green Beret must place explosive barrels next to the other three buildings and the antenna [inside the sandbags]. Hide all of the Commandos, except for the Spy, in the buildings near the truck.

Phase 2: Fireworks

The Spy can end his conversation and shoot the barrel near the comm building as the patrol passes by. The Sapper must detonate both explosives and the fuel truck will blow up automatically. Use the Sniper to kill the outside patrols as they enter the base. When all has calmed down, get everyone aboard the truck and escape out the western gate.

Mission 10

Operation Icarus

Objective: Rescue the downed pilot, destroy the weapons store and blow up the two JU-87 Stuka dive-bombers

Team: Green Beret, Sniper, Sapper, Driver

Phase 1: Outside the Base

Your team begins in the west where they must kill four soldiers and a patrol. Use a grenade on the patrol. You can use firearms freely in this area as well.

Phase 2: Infiltrating the Base

This phase is difficult. You must kill the soldier outside the wall and place the decoy outside the southern corner. Use it to distract the nearby guard while the Green Beret scales the wall north of the gate and kills the soldier patrolling near the detention area. Kill the other three soldiers in this part of the base and hide the bodies by the weapons store.

Phase 3: The Northern Sector

Use the Sniper to kill the soldier in the northern corner near the tents. The Green Beret can then knife the other two soldiers. Next, kill the soldier to the east, near the barracks when the patrol is not looking. Leave the body and drop prone. Send another Commando to let the pilot out of the detention area and hide them all in the weapons store.

Phase 4: Commandeer a Tank

Use the Sniper and the Green Beret to take out the remaining individual soldiers in the area. The Sniper should shoot from a position south of the base wall and through the gap between the two tank sheds. Hide the bodies from the patrol and bring the Sapper and Driver out while the other Commandos hide in the weapons store. While the Sapper moves between the two tank sheds in the west, the Driver waits behind the wall near the vacant tank in the south. When the patrol is headed north, the Sapper must quickly throw a grenade at each of the nearby sheds to destroy the tanks inside, then run for the vacant tank along with the Driver. One of the two remaining tanks will come after you while the other heads to the airfield. Shoot the first tank with the main gun and kill the patrol and any reinforcements coming out of the barracks.

Phase 5: On to the Airfield

When the base is clear, load the rest of the team and the pilot aboard the tank and head to the airfield. Destroy the last tank and any opposition you encounter along the way. Use the tank to kill all reinforcements from the barracks near the airfield. When all is clear, destroy the two Stukas and get everyone aboard the plane which will take them to safety.
