Retaking Lost Ground

Retaking Lost Ground is the fifteenth level in Call of Duty 2. The following sections are a walkthrough.

Getting Started
You'll spawn on an ally tank. After a while, one of the tanks in front of will will get blown up, so you'll get off it. There are enemies just past the destroyed tank, but instead of going forward, look on your right and you should see a back alley. Go through it, and you should see the troops past the tank, but you can see them from a safe angle and they won't notice you. Starting firing at them with your rifle.

When they're all dead, run across the road and look right. You should see another alley. Go through it and you'll see an MG42 gunner behind some exploding barrels. Take him out, then take out anybody that's left. You'll have secured the first Flak Gun.

Gun 2
After taking out the gunner, go left until you see troops on top of and in front of a building. When you see them, go back to the gun. Troops will be coming in, but your SMG should take them out quickly. When they're out, go the route the gun is on, then go up, then left. Again, you'll get a safe point to take out the building troops without all of them noticing you. Beware that some troops might be hiding on the right side, so don't go too far. When the troops on the ground are out, go forward and take out the troops on the roof. You'll have to do this because there are some that'll never get in your view if you stayed where you were.

After clearing out the roof and ground floor of the building, an ally will put up a ladder on the left side, allowing you to go up. At the top of the roof is a regular G43 on some crates, so take it if you want it. From the G43, take a right and go down the hole, then keep going forward until you get to a building with troops on its right side and crates, barrels and a car in front of you.

Don't go into the building just yet. Fire at the troops from a safe distance (preferably from behind the barrels and crates, because a grenade can make the car explode). Even though you've cleared out the troops, you're not done yet! Go into the building, and you'll see another wave of troops come in. Toss a few grenades at them, then go into the back of the building and fire at the survivors. After this wave has been cleared out, you can truly move on.

Get out of the building, go forward, and look left. You'll see another gun. However, don't go left. Instead, go forward until you get into an alley, then take a left. You'll be in front of the gun, giving you a clear shot at the operators. Be careful; there's an MG42 on the top road that's behind the gun, so take it out first. Just keep firing and hiding, and you'll take out the second gun. Soon after you wipe out the second gun, a troop filled truck will come in from the right and park near the gun. Take out the troops as they're coming out. When the troops start running, turn to your left, because there are some troops that'll try to flank you. Take them out, then get rid of the rest of the truck troops.

Gun 3
When the second gun area has been completely cleaned out, go to the right and get past the truck. You'll be at what appears to be a town square. There are troops on top of a roof near the center, so take them out. When they're out, you'll hear an enemy tank firing, so go left until you see one of your tanks burst through a wall and destroy it. Follow the tank until it begins to take a turn. Instead of following it, go forward, then look right. You should see an alley. Go through it and begin firing at the troops at the building in the center of the area. A rocket troop will destroy the tank, but you can throw a smoke grenade to the panzer tank after the first tank destroy the panzer then you will see the 2nd tank when the second tank starts to move for a left turn throw the smoke grenade and the rocket trooper won't see. There's a respawner on the far right, so you can't truly clear out the area, so instead wait until there are few or no troops in the building, the run over to it. When you're in, get out and go left, then turn right at the end of the building. You'll shut off the respawner, allowing you, to finish off whatever is left. When the area is cleared out, go forward through an alley.

At the end of the alley is another gun. Toss a grenade or two at it, and they should wipe out the entire crew before they even notice you. If not, just hang back and take them out from a distance.

Gun 4
Now that gun 3 is out, it's time to finish off gun 4. Get to the gun and look left. You should see an alley. Go through it and you'll end up in an area overlooking the fourth gun. Toss a few grenades at it, and you should finish it off before they even notice you. There are some troops on the right on the ground and on a roof past the gun, so stay back and take them out as well.

Gun 5
Time to take out the last gun. Go to the area where the troops past the gun were, and take a right. You should see a destroyed tank. Go forward, but look left until you see an alley. There are three troops on the other side, so toss a grenade, then mop the rest up with the SMG. Go through the alley and take a right. You should see the last gun in the distance. Toss a few grenades at it, and you should take out the entire crew without them seeing you.

The Mosque
From the fifth gun, look right until you see a street. Go down it, and you should find the mosque.There are two MG42s at the top, so stay back and snipe the gunner before they can get a lock on you. When they're out, take out the rest of the troops on the top. When the mosque has been cleared out, go up to the top and fire at the incoming troops until tank support arrives. When they're at the mosque, you'll exit the level.
