METHOD
3. Outline
The lorry we stole was apparently carrying a large shipment of Panzerfaust 60s -a sort of short range, single-use, and disposable anti-tank weapon. They'll come in handy if pursued. Not a bad find at all.

b) Destroy bridges and create improvides obstacles to delay pursuits by the enemy.
- Sgt. Waters has reserve demolitions for this task.
Eder Dam Getaway
Evans, Waters and Price are driving up a road in the truck they drove the previous mission.
Waters: Are you ready, mate? Take this Panzerfaust.
Waters hands Evans a Panzerfaust. If Evans does not immediately take it.
Waters: Take it.
Evans takes the Panzerfaust.
Waters: There. You do know what to do with it, don't you?
A German truck drives up to the truck.
Waters: German lorry behind us!
If Evans takes a while to fire it.
Waters: Fire it, dammit!
Evans fires his Panzerfaust. Waters hands him a new one.
Waters: Here you go.
They continue driving. They drive past 2 German trucks and come up to a bridge.
Waters: We just have to make it across! It's booby trapped to blow when we do!
They drive across the bridge, but it fails to explode.
Waters: Dammit! The soggy bastard didn't blow! Take this sniper rifle! Cover me while I do it by hand!
Waters hands Evans a scoped Kar98k. As Evans covers, he jumps out of the truck and gets to work detonating the explosives. After a few moments, the explosives are detonated and Waters runs back to the truck. They get moving, and a German truck begins moving up behind them. Waters hands Evans a Panzerfaust.
Waters: German lorry coming up fast!
The truck continues through a tunnel and a German roadblock blocks the exit.
Waters: Evans! Roadblock, dead ahead! Hold on tight!
The truck goes through the roadblock. Around this point, they will run out of Panzerfausts and Waters will hand him the last one.
Waters: We're out! That's the last of the Panzerfausts!
They keep moving and two German motorbikes begin trailing them.
Waters: Bloody motorbikes! Take 'em out! Lock and load! Fire! Fire!
The truck keeps moving, with Germans still on them. Price speeds up and drives the truck over a hill.
Waters: What the bloody hell's he doing?!
The German trucks either stop following or are destroyed.
Waters: My God, we made it. I don't bloody believe it.
The truck continues driving down a road. The level ends.
