Guts & Blackpowder

Involving France, The United Kingdom, Austria, Prussia, Russia, Denmark, Sweden, Portugal, Bavaria, Duchy of Warsaw, Spain. All of Europe with The United States accidently involving themselves. Taking historical events and giving them a twist involving The Blight, the zombie virus. once they have rung the bell for several minutes, the HMS Undaunted will signal back, and the players will be able to proceed further. the soldiers must clear another pile of snow in order to open a locked gate leading to the nearby lighthouse and pier, with a set of cannons nearby. then they must ascend to the top of the lighthouse, and wind the clockwork, and then ignite the lights in order to guide the ship to their position. once the lights are ignited, the final holdout sequence will commence. the soldiers must hold-out for several minutes against an intensifying horde of zombies composed of shamblers, bombers and zappers until they are rescued. once the HMS Undaunted arrives to rescue the soldiers, united kingdom saliors give them covering fire to assist them get onto the ship without trouble, the ship will sail directly past the dock, and they must immediately board the ship to avoid being left behind. once the ship passes by, the soldiers will have successfully escaped. San Sebastián (Objective Map): it takes place within the now French-occupied Castillo de la Mota situated upon Urgull Hill. upon the outbreak, the French soldiers who had just threw the British and Portuguese soldiers into jail will unlock their cell doors and team up with them. then the newly formed company of once enemies now allies will exit the main building only to be surrounded by a large horde of zombies. they must clear out all the zombies and begin progressing down to the main city, with at least one soldier raising a locked metal gate in order to proceed down the stairs of the fortress. the soldiers will eventually come across a storage shed filled with explosives, along with a fuse located several feet away from the door. they must ignite the fuse in order to detonate the barrels within the shed, which will destroy the door. the destroyed door will allow the soldiers to collect a set of Planks, which then is used to build a bridge across a spike-pit and proceed further. the soldiers must then continue their descent, where they will come across another storage shed, which house a mix of British, Portuguese, and French soldiers who were being taken up to the fortress by the French before this happened--with a loaded Cannon positioned in front of it. at this time, a large horde of Runners will rush up and attack the newly reunited soldiers. the soldiers must kill all of the runners and proceed further. the soldiers will then come across a cargo lift, which makes use of a capstan on the exterior walls of the fortress where they will have to complete several objectives while being attacked by Shamblers, Runners, Bombers, Zappers, Igniters and Zuirassiers. they must use the capstan to raise a set of three gunpowder barrels to the top of the lift; the soldiers must then turn over the barrels, and roll them to the nearby wall of the fortress. once all 3 barrels have been positioned, they must shoot the barrels to detonate them, creating a hole in the fortress wall. the soldiers must then descend one soldier on the lift to acquire a hay-bale positioned at the bottom of the cargo lift, and raise the hay-bale in order to push it over to the hole created in the fortress wall, which will allow for a safe descent into the main city. upon entering the main city, the surviving soldiers will arrive at a barricaded street, where a holdout event will begin in which they will also be attacked by Shamblers, Runners, Zappers, Igniters and Zuirassiers. players must then defend against a near-endless horde of the undead for several minutes until all zombies have been killed, at which point they will be able to proceed further. the soldiers must make their way through a residential building up to its attic, then make their way across several roof-tops until they reach the balcony of a nearby building. upon clearing all of the zombies off of the balcony, they will enter a small fortified room and the last group of surviving British soldiers who were going to attempt to do a counter attack up the hill before all of this happened will be found. the soldiers must drop down onto several hay bales to reach a barricaded gate, which can be destroyed using a piece of rocket artillery positioned in front of the door. the soldiers must then push open two pairs of large wooden doors, one of which has been locked with 4 locks; they must destroy the locks by hitting them with a melee weapon or shooting at them with a firearm. once the locked gate has been opened, the soldiers will proceed into the main holdout event, located within a small cargo area, and the interior of the outside walls of the fortress. the soldiers who walked up the steps and down the small corridor will be greeted by Barry, a young officer of the 5th Regiment of Foot, he is separated from the soldiers by a metal grate, with a Cannon along with ammunition (Round Shot and Canister Shot) and a Swab positioned below it. Barry fires a rocket, alerting the nearby HMS Undaunted, and informs them that he will raise the platform in order to allow himself and the players to escape. the group of now determined soldiers will have to hold out for several minutes against an intensifying horde of zombies which include Shamblers, Runners, Bombers, Zappers, Igniters and Zuirassiers until Barry can raise the lift. upon raising the lift, Barry will yell out for the soldiers to get on the platform, and he will begin lowering the platform. as Barry is lowering the platform, Barry is ambushed by two Runners, who tackle him and pin him to the ground. Barry will scream in agony, before a Bomber approaches him and detonates its barrel, killing Barry and blowing open the metal grate separating the soldiers from Barry. one of the soldiers must sacrifice themselves, climbing up the metal grate and lowering the lift for the remaining survivors. at this point, an old sailor from the HMS Undaunted makes his way to the soldiers in a small rowboat; they must hold out until the boat reaches the shore. once the boat reaches the shore, the soldiers must board the boat; after a short amount of time, the boat will depart, and the survivors will escape. Leipzig (Objective Map): the soldiers of the French Empire, Austrian Empire, Kingdom of Prussia, Russian Empire, Kingdom of Sweden, and Duchy of Warsaw were pushed back toward the St. Thomas Church, located within the center of the city of Leipzig. once they had entered and waited the cannibals out, the soldiers will exit the church into the surrounding town, where a horde of Zombies are waiting. they must clear out all the zombies and progress through the city, dropping down into an alley connecting to the cellar of a bar--which has had its doors barricaded. a set of Cannons lies at the back of the alleyway, along with Canister Shot and Round Shot boxes and a Swab for the soldiers to effectively load the Cannons. they must destroy the barricades, which will unleash a horde of Runners which were contained inside the bottom floor of the bar. after killing the runners, the soldiers must ascend to the main floor of the bar, and exit it out into the main street. after exiting the bar, a soldiers will be required to push a cart to a gate. while doing this, the soldiers will come across a large man-made barricade blocking the path. they must collect Torches and ignite it to burn down the barricade and clear the path--while defending themselves from a constant horde of Shamblers, Bombers, Runners and Zappers coming from both the surrounding city, and from within the makeshift graveyard dug next to the bar. the soldiers must repeat the process of igniting the Torches by walking up to the barricade several times with a lit torch, before the Barricade will finally burn down. after which, they will be able to continue pushing the cart. the soldiers will have to continue to push the cart while defending themselves from Zombies as they will continue to spawn until the soldiers push the cart to the locked gate leading to a cemetery, after which they must ignite the gunpowder barrels within the cart using a Torch. this will detonate the explosive barrels within the cart, and destroy the gate leading to the Cemetery. the surviving forces that were separated in the chaos will be found inside a mausoleum inside of the Cemetery. a large two-story building containing a set of two Cannons along with ammunition and swabs is present near the front of the cemetery--inside this building is a bell, which must be rung in order to initiate a holdout event. the soldiers will be required to holdout for several minutes against an intensifying horde of Zombies which include Shamblers, Runners, Bombers, Zappers, Igniters and Zuirassiers. the surviving soldiers will need to fight off the horde until Jacob--a French Engineer--arrives to blow up the gate. Jacob will walk to the gate with a barrel and Torch in hand, and he will detonate the barrel near the gate, destroying it and accidently killing himself in the process. the soldiers must then rush out of the city, through a burning building. once they escape the burning building, they will drop down to the path that leads them to the wooden bridge but will run into Shamblers that are blocking their way to the wooden bridge. the wooden bridge has been rigged with explosive barrels. the bridge has a set timer, which is shown by a fuse that slowly gets closer to the barrels as the survivors sprint in a hurry across the bridge. any survivors that don't make it fully across the bridge in time as the fuse ignites the barrels will meet their untimely death. upon the detonation of the bridge, the survivors who did make it across or swam to the end and were helped up by the survivors will have escaped. Kaub (Objective Map): the soldiers of the Austrian Empire, Kingdom of Prussia, Russian Empire, Kingdom of Bavaria that were sent to Kaub were pushed back to a church at the edge of the town thanks to the Zombies running about, where they must exit into the surrounding streets and fight off a horde of Zombies. Players must clear out all of the zombies, before progressing into a small hotel which is stocked with Firewood, Bedsheets, Pillows, and Delicious Legs. soldiers must collect these supplies and load them into a wooden cart outside. once the cart has been fully loaded, they must push the cart forwards until they reach a large, log wall blocking their path. the soldiers must then make their way down a set of nearby stairs and through a basement until they reach a Cannon, along with another hotel filled with military supplies--including Powderkegs and a large quantity of Muskets. they must fire the Cannon which will create an opening. which will allow for the soldiers to easily collect and transport the additional supplies to the cart. while supplies are being transferred to the cart, soldiers must also defend against a horde coming from a nearby grave-site until the cart has been fully loaded. after which, soldiers can pull down the log wall using ropes to proceed further. upon pulling down the log wall, soldiers must push the cart towards a nearby pontoon bridge, and defend the area of Shamblers, Bombers, Runners and Zappers while using a Cannon in order to break down a set of hastily constructed wooden barricades. This will take several shots to fully destroy, after which the soldiers can push the cart across the pontoon bridge and over to Pfalzgrafenstein. the soldiers entrance to Pfalzgrafenstein is blocked by a raised drawbridge, which must be brought down using Grenades (which can be retrieved from the cart). the soldiers must throw grenades into an opening in the castle walls in order to destroy the mechanism holding the drawbridge up, which will cause it to immediately fall down. soldiers can then push the cart up into the castle, at which point the Pontoon Bridge will begin sinking slowly. unfortunate soldiers left on the Pontoon bridge while it is sinking will either drown to death or be forced to hold out until the Prussian Army retreated. after delivering the cart to the castle, the soldiers must proceed up to the top of the castle, killing groups of Zombies along the way until they reach the top of the castle, where Field Marshal Blücher, a 1. Garde zu Fuß Officer (Karl), and the surviving forces of Blücher's soldiers are waiting. Blücher will hand the soldiers a Key, and demand that they clear out the cellar at the bottom of the castle so that they can secure the castle and allow for the Prussian Army to safely retreat across the Rhine. shortly after this, Blücher will succumb to the Blight and turn into a Viral Runner, killing his accompanying officer. upon entering the cellar, the soldiers will encounter a large number of trapped Shamblers who are unable to attack the players. when they approach the door at the end of the cellar, the door will break open, and the horde of zombies will begin flooding in. the soldiers must hold out for several minutes against an increasingly intense wave of Zombies which include Shamblers, Bombers, Zappers and Igniters, with several waves of Runners, until all zombies within the cellar are killed. once all zombies have been killed, the soldiers must ascend back to the top of the castle, and raise the Prussian flag to signal that the castle is secure, and allow for the Prussian Army to retreat. Tyrolean Village (Endless Map): the surviving soldiers of both the Austrian Empire and Kingdom of Bavaria stop within the town square of the village, it consists of numerous buildings--including a large, under-construction Church, several houses, and a small campsite. they can find a blacksmith on the bottom floor of one of the houses, along with being able to find a small horse stable near the Bavarian campsite. the soldiers have made a mass-grave containing several Austrian and Bavarian soldiers' corpses they put down when they were bit. the map is incredibly compact, with most combat taking place within close-quarters environments such as the interiors of houses and within the streets. Zombies will enter from all points across the exterior of the village, and from the mass grave-site located next to the church. St. Petersburg (Holdout Map): 4-way intersection of Millionnaya Street and Moshkov Lane, surrounded by various bodies, defensive structures, and carriages. the soldiers sent there must hold this position against ten gradual waves of incoming Zombies from three-four sides of the intersection. after the conclusion of a wave, the Hobo will arrive with a supply carriage from the fortified side of the intersection. the soldiers must lower the bridge in order to allow the Hobo access and if they don't lower the bridge, the Hobo will leave. once the Hobo arrives, soldiers are able to order supplies from the Hobo to assist in their defense, including Cannons, Cannon Ammunition, Grenades, and more. These supplies will be delivered at the start of the following wave. Shamblers and Red-eyes will always show up from waves one to ten, Bombers and Lamplighters start showing up at wave three, Zappers start showing up at wave four, Zuirassiers start showing up at wave six. as the soldiers holdout, the sun will set and it will transition into night, causing visibility to decrease. The soldiers must make use of Lamplighters to light the street lamps within the holdout point to see clearly. the soldiers will face several special waves, such as a Zuirassier wave on wave eight. at the conclusion of wave nine, The Hobo's supply carriage will arrive empty, and the soldiers will only be able to order an Artillery Barrage, as the Hobo is killed while gathering supplies on wave nine. after the soldiers successfully holdout against most of the hordes, a large mob of Runners will rush from all sides of the intersection, before being eliminated by an artillery barrage. the soldiers must then raise the Russian flag, which gives the Russian Army the signal that they had held the line and for them to enter the city. La ferme d'En-Haut (Endless Map): the map consists of a run-down farmhouse located on the side of a road, next to a river. the compound is surrounded by walls--several of them destroyed--as-well as trees, several houses, and a tree-house. in the upper half of the compound, a large two-story stone building is present, containing a Cannon on the second floor with three boxes of ammunition (Round Shot, Canister Shot, and Grape Shot) on the bottom floor, and a nearby barn with a hayloft and several storage units and a short catwalk next to them. in the lower half of the compound, a Cannon and ammunition is present on a raised wooden platform, with a shed both next to and behind it, along with a catwalk at the very back. The back of the compound contains a two-story residence, and the front of the compound contains several sheds. the map is very close-quarters. La Haye Sainte (Endless Map): the map consists of a run-down farmhouse consisting of three primary buildings and a large shed. in the center of the map, there is a large mound of burning debris. the largest building is a horse stable with a hayloft accessible by a ladder, with a barn connected to one side of the stable. on the other side of the stable, an abandoned two-story living quarters is present, which connects to a small shed. Zombies will enter the compound primarily from the two large archways leading into the compound from the outside, along with near the shed. Hougoumont (Endless Map): the map consists of a run-down manorial compound consisting of several buildings around the perimeter and interior--in a square shape--where the players are meant to defend, along with an exterior area of grass fields covered in unending darkness. a château within the bottom half of the compound, which also contains a burning building, an armory, a two-story building, and two catwalks for soldiers to defend on. the upper half of the compound contains a well in the center, an elevated catwalk at the back, and two barns in opposite corners. Zombies enter the compound en masse through two narrow, main chokepoints. Catacombes de Paris (Objective Map): the split up soldiers of Paris had locked themselves within a barricaded shed, which by happenstance, is also the entrance to the Paris Catacombs. the soldiers must descend the stairwell into the Catacombs, where they will come across a small group of Zombies and a locked gate. they will have to proceed to the right of the gate, where they will come across a Shambler which, when killed, drops a Key to progress further into the catacombs. the soldiers collected the Key and brough it to the gate, which allowed them to proceed deeper into the catacombs. they will pass a number of mass graves, until they eventually reach a brick wall blocking their path; they must collect the Sledgehammer from a nearby pile, and destroy the brick wall in order to proceed further. (Sappers may also use Pickaxes to destroy the wall). upon destroying the wall, the soldiers will ascend up a flight of stairs into a holdout event, where they must defend until the horde dies down and they can proceed further. after defeating the horde, the soldiers must proceed through the Catacombs until they reach a locked gate leading to the surface--this lock must be destroyed, either by being struck with a melee weapon or shot at with a firearm. after the lock is destroyed, the gate will open, and the soldiers will be greeted by the remains of the other soldiers who were split up in the chaos. the newly formed group will have to climb over a nearby wall using a ladder, which will bring them into the street leading to the Notre-Dame de Paris Cathedral. the entire street is barricaded on four sides, with a barricade atop the bridge leading to the cathedral, along with two cannons with ammunition boxes containing Round Shot and Canister Shot positioned ahead of the bridge. the soldiers approached Jean, a French soldier stationed at the cathedral and in charge of the evacuation at Notre Dame Cathedral. upon approaching Jean, he will instruct the soldiers to hold the bridge while they evacuate the civilians, and that once they have completed the evacuation, one of Jean's ferrymen will be sent to rescue the players. this will initiate a holdout event. the surviving soldiers will be required to holdout for several minutes against an intensifying horde of zombies which include Shamblers, Runners, Bombers, Zappers, Igniters and Zuirassiers until the evacuation is complete--with horse carriages leaving the cathedral as the soldiers held them off. once all carriages have left, the ferry will arrive. the soldiers jump onto the boat, with several haybales, which will allow them to break their fall. after successfully jumping onto the boat, the surviving soldiers will have escaped. Copenhagen (Objective Map): the surviving danish soldiers had found themselves throughout a barricaded apartment within the inner city--with Congreve Rockets flying overhead and bombarding the city. upon waiting for a while to gain their courage, the soldiers will exit the barricaded apartment and exit into the nearby alley--which contains several civilian corpses, a set of wooden boards attached to a rope, and a number of Zombies. they must proceed through the alleyway to reach a locked gate leading into a flooded basement. they then must destroy the lock, either by using a melee weapon or a firearm, after which they will proceed into the basement of a bar. the soldiers must ascend to the second floor of the Bar, where they will come across a number of storage shelves and barrels, along with an opening in the wall for raising cargo with a rope. they must go over to one of the barrels and turn it over, then roll it to the nearby cargo lift, where it can then be tied to the rope and pushed to the ground in order to lift up several wooden boards, allowing them to build a bridge across to the nearby apartment building with about 5 planks. the soldiers must then make their way through several burning buildings and across partially destroyed rooftops before they eventually come across a burning attic that is impassable due to the heavy flames. the soldiers must extinguish the fire by collecting a set of water buckets and dousing the fire with them while being attacked by Shamblers and Runners. they who do not have the Water Bucket equipped can find wooden buckets and a set of water pumps by descending a rope to the ground. the soldiers can then ascend the ropes and approach the fire in the attic to douse it with water. after extinguishing the attic fire, they will make their way across two more attics before entering a large residential building. they then drop down into the building through a broken ceiling tile, and proceed down the stairs--where they will drop down through a destroyed stairwell into the first floor of the building. the soldiers must hold out in this room for roughly a minute, at which point they will be able to proceed into the main town square. upon making their way through the town square, they will come across a broken wooden bridge where they will have to hold the attack of Shamblers, Runners, Bombers and Zappers; the soldiers must shoot a Gunpowder barrel located across the bridge and next to an abandoned merchant vessel. when this barrel is detonated, it will light the vessel on fire and push the merchant vessel down the canal, until the ship reaches the bridge. they must quickly jump onto the flaming merchant vessel, and then onto the other side of the bridge before the vessel passes through the gap fully. the soldiers will then come across a small pier, where a Danish gunboat which is moored. they must enter the gunboat and untie it from the pier so that it can begin moving. the soldiers will have to clear their path while defending the boat, with a naval gun positioned at the front of the gunboat being used to clear a blockage. they must make use of the Naval gun, as well as several Swivel guns positioned on each side of the boat in order to defend the gunboat--as Zombies attempt to climb onto the gunboat. the soldiers will then have to clear the collapsed mast of the merchant vessel using the Naval Gun before proceeding forwards. they will continue downstream until they encounter a large Royal Navy Brig-Sloop which is enforcing a quarantine of the city. this vessel will begin firing upon the boat holding the soldiers after they pass under the bridge--the soldiers, now determined and very irritated must destroy the British vessel in order to breach the quarantine and escape Copenhagen. the soldiers can destroy the vessel by using the Naval Gun in order to strike the vessel with Round Shot--they can additionally kill Sailors onboard the ship to disable several Cannons. once the vessel has been destroyed, the soldiers will have successfully escaped. Roscoff (Objective Map): the American marines had reached the harbor on a large pier and, where they came on the USS Constitution and docked it. the marines must exit the pier and proceed forward past a barricade until they enter the forge. they must then repeatedly raise an anchor within the forge to break down a locked door leading into an alleyway, while holding out against a horde of Zombies. upon successfully destroying the door, the marines must proceed forward into the alleyway, where they will encounter a locked gate with a now infected Jean Louise on the other side. upon killing the now infected Frenchman, the gate will be opened and the marines will have noticed a note on Captaine Jean-Louise’s corpse and read it, giving them directions to Crawford. the marines must then proceed further down the alleyway, where they will be forced to pull a Wagon to clear the way to the church. they must then make their way to the church, where, upon attempting to enter, a Scared French Soldier (Arnaud Arribard) will respond and question the marines. Assuming the American marines are British, he will attempt to force them to leave by attracting the hordes, ringing the church bells and forcing the marines to hold out for several minutes against the Zombie hordes composed of Shamblers, Runners, Bombers, Zappers and Igniters. after successfully holding out, the marines can push open the doors to the Church, and find the Arnaud Arribard cowering and pleading for his life as he scrambles to the nearest corner. the marines have the option to Kill or Spare the coward, and then must barricade the doors. upon entering further into the church, their will be British prisoners handcuffed within a corner and have their restraints removed. however the British are also able to free themselves via a nearby Sabre laid against a seat. the marines and now the surviving british POW's must then make their way into the catacombs below the church, and raise a barricade to proceed through a cave and into a farmhouse. upon entering the farmhouse and approaching the attic, the group will encounter William H. Crawford, the U.S. Ambassador to France. they must escort him to the docks for extraction. If at any point, Crawford is killed, the soldiers must carry his body back to the USS Constitution. the group will come across a large barricade, and must stuff a nearby hole with cannon rounds while Shamblers, Runners, Bombers, Zappers, Igniters attack them. upon packing the hole, the group of misfit soldiers must ignite the gunpowder to destroy the barricade and proceed further. they must continue making their way to the docks, upon entering a nearby building, a group of surviving French soldiers who were once under the command of Jean Louise will be found. the American marines, British POW's, and now the new group of French soldiers must then make their way into a small cemetery, where they must collect a ladder from a shed to make their way over the wall. but they must be careful. as within the shed is a clustered together horde of various Infected. upon entering the harbor again, the tide has lowered and the soldiers can make their way across a stretch of beach and rocks to climb up to the pier. upon returning to the USS Constitution, the ship has been overrun by Zombies and the docks has been destroyed. the group of soldiers must fully prepare the ship to set sail while defend themselves of Shamblers, Runners, Zappers, by casting off the mooring lines, hauling the sheets, hauling up the halyard, and bracing the main yards to starboard. upon bracing the main yards, the ship will exit the harbor. after the ship has exited the harbor, the undead below deck will break out and the misfit of soldiers must defend the ship as it is overrun by shamblers, runners, bombers and zappers. sappers are useful here as they can barricaded the 4 hatches and prevent the zombies coming out immediately, and able to build a makeshift barricade using crates and barrels around the capstan. after killing all of the zombies, the group will have successfully escaped. London (Objective Map): takes place on the upper balconies of St Paul’s Cathedral after a company of surviving British soldiers had ran up to the upper balconies, overlooking the city completely overrun by the undead. from there, they discuss their next course of action and decide to head towards Westminster to regroup with the King’s Horse Guards. The group then move across a network of unstable wooden scaffolding leading down toward the church's roof. a section of the roof, damaged by fire, has collapsed, creating a wide gap that blocks the way forward. the company must push a wooden beam into place to form a makeshift bridge and cross to the other side. after crossing the gap, the company enter the attic of the cathedral, where a fallen bell has shattered part of the floor, exposing the stairway leading down to ground level. they then must fight their way down the stairway to the ground level and out the cathedral, exiting the cathedral's grounds and walking down the street leading the company to a large wooden gate with multiple dead bodies piled up in front of it, they have to drag the bodies away from the gate to proceed with the objective. after the bodies are dragged away from the gate, 1 or 2 soldiers have to pull open the gates to open the path to into Ludgate Block, after all of that, the company enter a bookstore due to the rest of the street being blocked by another gate. they must then find 10 crates of books to be stacked up so that they can reach a ladder leading to the skylight. after climbing up through the skylight, the company enter into Bubbles’s old shop through a broken window. going downstairs and entering an alleyway lets the company interact with the Scottish soldier, the Scottish soldier will inform that there are 2 riflemen on top of a steeple and shooting anyone that tries to pass. The Scottish soldier, being a terrible shot, tells the players to fire at the tower to hopefully get to his/her comrade named Jimmy but unfortunately gets shot. this starts the objective, tasking the soldiers to get to the church where the Sharpshooters are located to hopefully kill them. if any soldiers are shot by the sharpshooter, they become incapacitated and can only crawl until saved. only a Surgeon is able to save downed teammates due to their medical experience. reaching the church, the soldiers must then break off some wooden boards that were blocking the undead's path to the church doors, then close the church gates and climb out from the gated area. after a while, the riflemen will get mauled by the undead. going through an alleyway and up to a street leads the soldiers to a printing house where another surviving company of british soldiers can be found upstairs on the second floor. exiting both wooden gates behind the printing house brings the company to a partly burning courthouse, leaving the courthouse and taking a short walk brings them to an underground pub that is connected to the toy store's basement due to a broken wall. exiting the toy store's basement brings them to the toy store, where they have to find a Key to proceed upstairs and to the sewers, where another surviving group of british soldiers can be found in the toy store’s second-story bedroom. exiting the toy store brings the now large company of soldiers to the sewers, where a vat house sits above the tunnels. them must then climb a ladder from the sewers to reach the vat house. as the company ascend the stairs leading to the entrance, they encounter an injured British engineer. the engineer explains that his platoon was ordered by the King to set fire to the city in an attempt to cull the infection. however, the noise from their operation attracted a horde and now his regiment has fallen, he then tells the surviving soldiers of London to save what’s left of Westminster. the objective after reaching the vat house is to destroy the vats that are filled with liquid, to flood the vat house and destroy the door out of the vat house. after some time of the vats leaking liquid to flood the vat house, multiple vats will topple over and blast liquid out to push open the doors, letting the company run out of the vat house, the soldiers get washed away by the liquid. leading directly into the events of Westminster. Westminster (Objective Map): the soldiers will have woken up outside the vat house, after they have destroyed the vats and blasted out into the street. they must continue their journey to the Horse Guards; due to the T junction's major road being blocked by debris, they have to go through a shop that is at the end of the minor road. the company exit through the back of the shop and into one of St Gile's streets. continuing down the path lets the company see that the rest of the street has been blocked by a large wooden fence; next to the fence are multiple boxes, stacked up and creating a path into a building that lets them continue down the street through the 2nd story window. on the other side of the wooden fence is a hastily made barricade, made out of wooden furniture. the company must then destroy the barricade and continue down the street, where they must head into one of the alleyways to proceed. going down the alleyway brings the company to a courtyard, where a blacksmithing shop upstairs is located. they must then shoot the chains holding up the platform with the anvils to hopefully have the anvils drop and make the Ladder under the platform fall. after the ladder has fallen, the company must then set the ladder upright and climb up into the blacksmithing shop. heading inside the shop lets them access the rooftop, where a Treadwheel crane resides. one of the soldiers in the company must then volunteer to go down with the crane hook and pull the crane into position before hooking the crane hook to the wooden platform in the street. after doing all of that and having the rest of the soldiers pull the platform up with the Treadwheel crane, they must go into the rotunda, where heading down some stairs and up some ladders, where they stumble across a fellow company of soldiers who were inside at that point that actually just ran instead of defending. the door next to the group brings them out into an alleyway, where a destroyed building opens the way into the back of the London museum. heading into the London museum through the back door brings the company into multiple exhibitions. heading further inside brings them to a locked door, which is also the door that lets them into the street. upon approaching the locked door, a knight statue will suddenly break out from behind the exhibition, seems like it was a museum employee who would playfully scare a customer when they came past them. after killing the infected knight, a Key will drop from its corpse, allowing the shook company to leave the museum and reach the street. heading over to a large wooden gate with a tower allows the company to have an interaction with the Gate Operator, Nick Raymond, in the tower. he notifies the company way below him that he has to relay a warning before he can allow them to go through the gate. while he rings the bells, they must hold out for a while before they can pass. going through the gate, they can see a group of unfortunate soldiers trying to hold the line while a horde manages to kill them. the company, if they are fast enough and lucky, could save them and have them tag along. while the company is walking off, they can see a Whinyates 2nd Rocket Trooper running away from a horde and leads the horde into the forecourt of Horse Guards, and allowing the building to get overrun. The company, stumbling into the forecourt, need to clear out the court and push a carriage under an open window. after pushing, they need to pick up a nearby ladder to get up and into the second story of the Building. passing through a room and entering another lets the surviving company meet Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington. he informs the soldiers that the Westminster Bridge will be blown up by 12 a.m., but luckily there are still some men from the Royal Wagon Train downstairs, and he urges them to save the King’s Colours before leaving Horse Guards. he decides to stay and not accompany the soldiers and his fate is unknown given how the sounds of gunfire came from the room after they depart. the surviving Horse Guards are next to two wagons pulled by horses when the company comes down the stairs. then they must then climb aboard the wagons before they depart within 30 seconds. the carriages will leave through the Horse Guards backyard towards St. James Park. after a short journey on the wagons, the first wagon’s back wheel gets destroyed, and now the company must find a replacement before continuing. in the nearby lake of St. James park, there is a wagon that has fallen into the water, with a replacement Wheel at the back. a soldier must then remove the wheel and slowly move it over to the wagons. after moving the wheel over, another soldier, namely a Sapper due to their strength, must lift up the first wagon to let the soldier with the wheel attach it. after all of that, the wagons will depart within 15 seconds. after another ride on the wagons, the group come across a carriage blocking the street. they must then push the carriage away from the middle of the street and onto the sidewalk to clear the way for the wagons. after the wagons reach the gate, an Igniter in a Royal Artillery of Foot uniform fires a cannon, killing the horses pulling the wagon. the group must then load the cannon and rotate it toward the gate to destroy it by firing the cannon at it. after firing the cannon and destroying the gate leading to the Westminster Bridge, the company must charge across before the clock strikes twelve. the bridge is filled with abandoned barricades, carriages, and barrels of gunpowder set to detonate at midnight. Multiple Shamblers, Runners, and Zappers spawn throughout the area, forcing the soldiers to fight their way through. midway across the bridge, a wooden gate blocks the route, requiring the company to move underneath via scaffolding before re-emerging on the opposite side. near the end of the bridge, a whole battalion of British soldiers provide covering fire against incoming zombies. reaching and passing through the final gate concludes the escape from London with the surviving company being celebrated and cheered on by a whole large company of other British soldiers when they make it. Castillo Sohail (Holdout Map): the map consisted of a castle next to a shore with a wrecked ship set during night-time. the Spanish and Duchy of Warsaw soldiers were forced to defend this castle. one the Spanish were trying to siege while the Duchy of Warsaw were trying to keep the Spanish out. that obviously changed when the infected had came. the objective is to defend the fortress until they can signal a nearby ship, takes place at midnight. the way they could signal one is by crafting a makeshift flare with supplies that can be found outside the walls and shooting it out of a cannon that must be rebuilt with the pieces laying about inside the castle. it should be known that it should ONLY be shot during the day and while a ship is visible, then and only then would an attempt of rescue be able to be complete. when the boat is signaled and sends a small boat to get to the shore line, the soldiers then must reach the shore and defend against the full scale of Shamblers, Runners, Zappers, and Bombers that have been constantly coming to siege the castle themselves. when they get on the boat and it leaves, the surviving soldiers who had reached the boat will have escaped. Jutland Defense (Holdout Map): the map takes place in the small village of Jutland Peninsula, it has a large church with two story houses that were on the right of the church. Where there is about twelve houses, five shops: one Blacksmith, one Bakery, a Small Market, and two General Stores. and a medical building. the soldiers of Denmark and surprisingly Sweden have teamed up into this defense of the village instead of running away, the first attempt to defend what they valued than run away like most of the other nations. the objective is to keep the civilian's safe, keep the light in the houses on and kill every and all Undead Monsters for 7 hours. on the last hour, a large company of Danish soldiers will enter the village and kill the stragglers. if the village was successfully defended, then the soldiers will have completed their orders. if the soldiers have all died and/or the civilians have died, then the orders will have been failed and taken as a failure.
