The sentries who saluted Amsel have now eased their vigilance and are relaxing as they talk with each other, one having taken a chair to sit down in. Now, load your rifle, but hold your fire.Īmsel and his driver have walked into a building and out of view. If we reveal our position to Amsel's men, this fountain will be our grave. Fire at the wrong moment and your chance will be forever lost. Sniping your enemy is like hunting any other animal. For three days luck alone has saved his wretched life. Not just here, but throughout the motherland. He is responsible for the cold blooded murder of men, women and children. Reznov: The mudak (asshole) in the car is General Heinrich Amsel architect of Stalingrad's misery. As Reznov continues, the General is seen explaining some things to his driver, who nods in agreement, before the two head for the front door of the building they parked next to, being saluted by two Wehrmacht soldiers on sentry duty as they pass. Visible outside of the wall are many Wehrmacht soldiers, one of which is a General stepping out of a car before speaking with his driver. Reznov: My injured hand means I can no longer aim. The player and Reznov crawl towards an opening in the fountain. Do what I say, and we can avenge this massacre. (But if he decides to wait for a bit Reznov will show himself automatically) When the Wehrmacht soldiers leave, the player must crawl forward, eventually meeting Reznov. A Wehrmacht soldier stands up on a ledge and shoots two dying Red Army soldiers beside the player with a good burst from his MP40 into each of them before stepping into the fountain and rolling over one dead body with his foot before moving on.

Rapid fire bursts from an MP40 can also be heard occasionally, as a Panzer IV tank slowly rumbles past loaded with Wehrmacht solders. Crows and ravens meander around the corpses looking for food, occasionally spooked by the sound of a Kar98k discharging a shot. Many Wehrmacht soldiers are seen outside of the square's walls.

The player is at a fountain in the Red Square, surrounded by dead and dying Red Army soldiers.

These are the darkest days of the Nazi occupation of Stalingrad. The arrogance of their leaders is matched only by the brutality of their soldiers. Their relentless drive into our motherland steals the lives of men, women, and children alike. Reznov: The rotten cancer of the fascist Reich ravages Europe like a plague.
