1. Introduction
----------------- [*INTRO]
This guide is being written for the following game:
The History Channel: Civil War - A Nation Divided.
This game, while a bit crappy, also is a rather decent effort for a budget
title. There are twelve missions in total and can be quite challenging. The
History Channel brings their fantastic way of telling history into this game
during audio segments accompanied by pictures and battle maps throughout the
game. For those who don't know much about the Civil War, it's not a bad
beginning point to begin your learning about a most dark and shameful time in
the history of the United States of America.
All fifty of the games achievements are quite easy to obtain. The only real
exception applies to the "War Hero" achievement which requires the user to
beat the game on the hard difficulty level. This game can be quite difficult
at times, as I have stated previously, due to absurd accuracy on part of
the CPU. Combine that with the increased damage from the CPU and it makes
for some pretty grueling times.
I've tried to make this guide as straight forward as possible with the
easiest explanations and descriptions on where to go. The game is quite
straight forward and really isn't difficult to find ones way through any
particular mission.
Also, this guide was written while I was going through the game on HARD.
This was to make sure I could provide the best strategies I could come up with
to help people on their go at the HARD difficulty.
If anyone needs help, post a message on GameFAQs in the message board
for The History Channel: Civil War - A Nation Divided and I should be able
to help, or one of the other kind people there should help out as well.
BE ADVISED:
For using this guide, I am telling you to play on the EASY difficulty
first. This will get you most of the achievements in one go and will avoid
some known complications on other achievements down the road like the Melee
Hero, General, Pistoleer, and Knife Master achievements.

3. Game Introduction
---------------------- [*GMINT]
"The United States Civil War that took place between 1861 and 1865 reflects
one of the darkest parts of the nation's history. The war, which is said
to have pitted brother against brother, presented a great strain on the
fledgling nation. Over 600,000 men perished from battle and disease, in
locations that spanned the country. The History Channel: Civil War - A
Nation Divided strives to recreate portions of the war as seen from both
sides.
Throughout the game, you will fight alongside many valiant men from both
the North and the South through twelve battles. From Fredericksburg and
Bull Run to Petersburg and Cold Harbor, you must struggle for every inch.
You will battle enemy troops on a variety of missions and in many
locations, using authentic weaponry from the period.
Take up arms and enlist in the armies of the United States of America and
the Confederate States of America, for the battle has begun!"

------------------------------
|Mission 1 - "Fredericksburg"|
------------------------------ [*NRTH1]
Mission Briefing - Fredericksburg:
"General Burnside has ordered us to carry the advance across the
Rappahannock River and assault the bluffs above Fredericksburg. There
is heavy resistance halting our progress at every point, but we must
break through the Confederate lines and remove all opposition.
Our first ambition is to take and hold the bridge at all costs! It is one of
only a few routes over the river and should the crossing remain in Rebel
hands, the battle may be lost. If we take Fredericksburg, Richmond is
ours for the plucking!"
The mission starts off with a commanding officer telling you that the Union
needs to take and hold the bridge so they all could be home by Christmas.
A cannon blast goes off next to you and soldiers fly about. Then one of the
crappiest spoken lines in a video game is delivered. It's right up there
with the original Resident Evil on PlayStation.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Take the bridge and advance forward.
Turn slightly to the left and run past the wagon. In typical Civil War
fashion, the commanding officer says to fling your bodies at the enemy and
do what needs to be done. So, keep advancing over the hill towards the
wagons where a firefight with roughly seven enemy soldiers is occurring.
Stick to the cover and take them out.
They will eventually start charging you. Fight them back and advance to
the wall they were behind. When you approach the wall, more soldiers will
begin to come over the bridge. Take the soldiers out from the wall. A
few waves of them will come, so just sit tight until they're all dead.
Once the troops are dead, at the wall, turn to the left and walk to the
corner next to the windmill. There should be a dead soldier with a document
in his hand. Look at it and press the A Button. You just recovered the
hidden picture for Fredericksburg.
Now, advance over the bridge and up the dirt path stopping at the wagon to
the right of the bridge opening for rifle ammo and a med-kit if needed.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Find your commanding officer.
As you round the corner of the road, there will be a soldier crouching down.
Three more are off in the distance advancing past a burning house.
Approach the crouched man and he will inform you that the entire brigade is
going to advance through there and the cannons must be destroyed.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Eliminate the cannon encampment.
Walk to the left side of the burning building to find a secret area with some
grenades. Return to the right side of the building and move up to the wagon.
If you attempt to hide behind the left wagon, it will roll away to the right
to provide more cover there. You can manually do this by removing the rock
on its wheel with the A Button.
Either way, you will need that wagon to the right for cover. So take out
some of the Confederate soldiers and make a run for the wagon and set it off
to the right. Take cover behind this when it is settled to the right. Now,
I just crouched here and eventually a Confederate soldier charged around the
corner of it. I killed him and then ran around the wagon on the right. All
the Confederates were paying attention to my men advancing in front of them
and I was able to kill all of them without taking a hit. Don't know if that
will work for you, but it did for me. Anyway, you need to advance on the
barricade they have set up. At least one soldier will run out from behind
the burning church looking structure.
Walk to the wagon behind the barricade and look to the left. Take your time
to aim and kill all of the cannon crews to complete the objective.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Find some explosives to clear the way.
Behind the wagon you should probably be standing at, there is a med-kit and
rifle ammo. Take if needed and then go to where the cannons are.
This is a good area to earn some kills. Look to the left at this building
on the hill past the spiked barricade. Confederate troops keep coming out
from behind it. You can spend a good amount of time here earning some kills
for the Pistoleer, Private, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, Colonel, and
General achievements.
Eventually they will stop and that means you need to head to the star on the
compass for the explosive barrel. This is behind the house when you
approached the cannon area directly to the left of the wagon in the same area.
Grab the explosives and walk to the right of where you grabbed them behind the
wagon. There is a barricade with a transparent red barrel. Go up to it and
look at the red barrel then press the A Button to plant the explosives. Run
away and wait for it to explode.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Eliminate the enemy cannons.
Head through the opening you just created and head down the path toward the
cannon and barricade. As you approach, four soldiers will come out and
attack you. Just kill them and continue up the path past one wagon towards
another wagon next to a fence. Be careful as you approach as a small band
of Confederates are waiting in a defensive position for you.
Quickly take cover behind the wagon where there is a med-kit for you.
What I did was threw a few grenades over the wagon and then stuck my head
out and began taking shots. Union soldiers joined me from a hill to the
right behind the troops I was shooting at.
However it goes down, kill the troops and advance to the wooden wall and
move towards your fellow soldiers.
Ignore the wagons here. One has a rock to be removed and explosives in it.
Ignore it because it'll just get you hurt and your soldiers killed.
Continue along through the wagons and cannons around the small bend. More
Union soldiers will jump the fencing to help you assault the enemy up the
hill.
Run back to avoid the burning explosive barrels the Confederate roll down
the hill at you. Your soldiers will take the Confederates out allowing you
to move up the hill safely with your health.
You will see Union soldiers on a barricade shooting to the left as you walk
up. Move to the barricade and the wagon in front of them explodes killing
them. Take cover behind this barricade and shoot two Confederates on the
building beyond the fence that you saw while approaching this area.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Bring down the enemy flag.
This is the final push for Fredericksburg. Take out the soldiers that are
firing at you and move up barricade by barricade. Pay attention to the
hill on your right over the fence as Confederate will appear there
occasionally.
The overturned wagon on the left has rifle ammo and a med-kit, so get them
if need be and continue your march to the enemy encampment.
When you get to the wagon on the right side, Confederate soldiers will
appear from the woods on the right behind the barricade there. They will
keep coming as do the men in front of you. This is a decent spot to hold
up for kills until they stop.
In the distance is a cannon to the left of the flag. Feel free to aim and
take the crew out.
When approaching the clearing before the camp, stay to the right near the
white tent. If you go to the left, a Gatling gun will chew you up along
with about 10 to 15 Confederate soldiers. Stay back next to the white
tents and take out the Confederates while the Union soldiers assault from
the left. This keeps the enemy distracted while you can aim and shoot for
kills.
When no more Confederate soldiers can be seen and your boys are milling
about, move out past the tents towards the flag. The Gatling gun crew
should be dead which is why your fellow troops weren't doing anything.
When you get near the flag, another 5 or 6 troops will appear. Just kill
them and approach the flag.
You will see two FMA sequences. One of the Confederate flag being lowered
and then one of the American flag being raised up.
This marks the end of the Battle of Fredericksburg.
==============================================================================
--------------------------
|Mission 2 - "Gettysburg"|
-------------------------- [*NRTH2]
Mission Briefing - Gettysburg:
"Our scouts report that General Lee has positioned men in order to attack
the flanks of the Union Army starting here at Devil's Den. We are precious
few men, but we hold the high ground and have plenty of sniper rifle
ammunition to hold them off for at least a little while.
Should the Rebs overrun our position or get any of their cannons into
place, we'll have to retreat across the river and regroup on Little Round
Top. Remember men, the entire army is counting on us for support here
at Gettysburg and we cannot fail the Union!"
You begin in a small circular area surrounded by rocks. You are informed
that a large group of Confederate soldiers are coming to take that position.
You are then told your only hope is the sniper rifle in your hand.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Use your sniper rifle to kill the enemies.
So, move to a rock and kill Rebels for 2-5 minutes or just hide some place
as to not get hit.
After awhile, enough troops will have been killed that a LOT of Confederates
are lined up in the fields below.
Out of the blue the objective point on the compass will change and a soldier
will yell that they are everywhere. That is your queue to RUN. Turn around
and grab and ammo and med-kits on your way because Confederate cannons are
about to rain hellfire on your position and there is no way to survive.
Continue running down the hill toward your commanding officer. There will
be another med-kit right in front of him if you need it. The CO will tell
you that the Union Army needs to retreat and to head for Little Round Top.
Take off to the left following the CO toward a group of soldiers firing
across the river. Your CO will then get killed by a cannon blast.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Continue alone to your defensive line.
Four soldiers appear in front of you where the Union soldiers were firing.
Another four or five come out of the woods behind you. Good luck. You
are in the open with no real cover. I ran forward and then fell back to
where I met the CO. On HARD, I lost two stars of health instantly and
killed one of eight soldiers.
What I suggest is this. When the CO runs off, there is a rocky area to
the right. Head over there. Beyond the fence, multiple soldiers will
appear if you move too far towards it. You will get some Union backup for
this, but hold off. Go to the closest rock where there is a tree and crouch
down to take out the troops coming from the trees on the right. Out of the
roughly 10 soldiers to come from here, I took two bullets. Take cover behind
the rock and take them out as fast as you can. They will die from who cares
and your bullets.
When they stop appearing, turn around and head near the fence and then fall
back behind the rocks. Soldiers will start running into the open beyond the
fence. The same thing as with the soldiers from the woods, there will be a
few waves of them before they stop. Union soldier will come to aid you in
this, but it's a way to earn more kills for achievements.
Make use of the sniper rifle ammo as there are two boxes of it in that small
area. Eventually, the two Union soldiers there will probably die. So, run
and grab their weapons. One will refill your rifle ammo and the other had
a Colt pistol. This is important to continue on with the Pistoleer
achievement.
From the rocks, turn around and march on down the path. Now you won't have
the soldiers coming at you from behind, so you just need to worry about the
soldiers in front of you.
Hug the left side of this area and move toward a wooden wall. There is a
med-kit there and this will help as four soldiers jump out of the woods
and attack you and the Union soldiers that were in front of you.
When you reach the area where the Union boys were, another ambush is sprung
from the woods all around you. Just like the other areas, there are a few
waves of troops. I suggest slowly moving forward and then falling back to
where you were over and over until all the troops are dead. This is the
best way to retain your health on HARD I found.
Slowly work your way through this area until you spot the river. As you
near the river, Confederate soldiers will appear on the other side and
begin shooting at you as well as two soldiers coming from your left in a
small clearing there. Work your way about and kill them all before
crossing.
Cross the river and stay to the left near the wooden wall. Four soldiers
will come out from behind a rock to your right, so far back to the wood
wall and take them out. When they are killed, reload your weapons and
continue up to the left of the wall.
There will be a small clearing on the left where you can find a med-kit
under a tree. Continue into this small clearing back against a rock and
a spiked barricade. You will find a dead Union soldier with a document.
Look at the document and press the A Button. You just found the hidden
document on Gettysburg.
Return to the tree where the med-kit was found and turn left where Union
soldiers are shooting. Turn right and continue up the hill avoiding the
cannon blasts.
Run into the woods are kill the few soldiers who are on the path and run
out of the woods. Just keep running up the hill in the woods until you
see a Gatling gun. That is the objective you are trying to get to, so
just run right on up there.
The commanding officer informs you to get on the Gatling gun and kill all
of the soldiers climbing the hill. Run over to the Gatling gun and press
the A Button and go to town. The Gatling gun WILL NOT affect your
accuracy.
Eventually, the CO states you are running out of ammo and to fix your
bayonet.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Attack the enemy soldiers directly.
Press the A Button to get off the empty Gatling gun and kill the remaining
soldiers yourself. There is a med-kit to the left of the Gatling gun, so
grab it if you need it and then head to where the injured soldier is.
You need to go through the opening in the barricade he is leaning on. Do
so and follow the path past dead soldiers. You will meet a group of your
fellow troops and the CO tells them to fix the bayonets and charge.
Follow them down the creek and into the woods towards the enemy waiting with
their guns.
Take on the enemy troops and survive for the screen to eventually fade to
black to mark the end of Gettysburg.
==============================================================================
---------------------------
|Mission 3 - "Chattanooga"|
--------------------------- [*NRTH3]
Mission Briefing - Chattanooga:
"We may have been repulsed by General Bragg at Chickamauga Creek, but
now is the time for our return to glory as we assault Chattanooga! The
Confederates have heavily-fortified trench positions dug into the hills
near the city and on Look-Out Mountain.
Now that we're under the command of General Grant, we should have
some real military foresight. It's going to be a hard battle, but we should
be able to use the cover of the trenches to gain the top of the mountain
as we eliminate the enemy presence."
You begin the mission with a soldier telling you that there is no place to run
to. He states he wants to but that he has no place to go since his brother
died at Bull Run and his mom died a little bit before. Then he gets shot.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Use the trenches to get to the top of the mountain.
From where you start, turn to your left to find two barrels in the corner.
Walk up to the left one and press the A Button on the paper sitting on top.
You just found the hidden document in Chattanooga.
So, with document in your pocket, you can either sit around killing soldiers
that are above to your right for kills, or you can continue down the trench.
Move under the bridge past the wounded soldier to find a Confederate jump into
the trench. Kill him and continue on past where he jumped down. You can also
stand on the elevated area from where he jumped, to kill a never ending flow
of Confederate soldiers they never target you and you can sit and kill.
That's an FYI for kills and kill point bonus at the end of the mission.
Keep walking through the trench under another bridge. A few more soldiers
will jump into the trench. You just kill them and keep moving along.
When the trench ends and opens into a clearing, watch out for a Rebel in a
tower to the left of the clearing. He's got a quick trigger finger and
multiple shots before he has to reload.
Directly to the left of the trench exit is a destroyed cannon with some
rifle and revolver ammo. Get them if needed and then proceed around the
turn in the road past the burning wagon and wounded Union soldier.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Eliminate all enemy resistance in the trenches.
Move into the next trench through the pool of water. Keep an eye out for
soldiers along the trench edge above.
The path behind you will get blocked by cannon fire as you are walking under
numerous bridges across the trench. Only option is to keep moving forward.
Along the way you'll obtain a Henry Rifle from a dead soldier on the ground
right before a clearing where your fellow troops join in a small skirmish
with soldier on a barricade above the trench. Clear the troops and keep on
moving as they will continue to respawn and shoot you.
Grab the med-kit along the right wall if needed along with revolver and
rifle ammo then move to the barricade on the left wall.
You should see your troops jumping into the trench and running off around the
corner. You need to follow them, but there are troops past the wall in front
of you and to the right on the hill. Got to take them out to move on safely.
There will be about three waves of them to replace the men killed.
Continue on around the bend in the road when those troops stop respawning and
on your left will be ammo and a med-kit. When you get those, two Rebels will
show up in front of you.
Kill them and move up to find a Gatling Gun on your left. Go around to the
backside of it and press the A Button to man the gun. A lot of troops will
keep on appearing on the hill in front of you, so go to town and kill them all.
The shots fired from a Gatling Gun or Cannon DO NOT affect your accuracy. So,
don't worry about that if you are.
Eventually the troops will stop showing up, so press the A Button to exit the
Gatling gun and walk to the left into the trenches again. There will be a
wall that two Confederate soldiers will come out from behind, so kill them and
move around the wall. There will be another Gatling Gun positioned here that
you should man. Same as before, soldiers will appear from all over. Just
keep firing until no more appear and then proceed up the path.
At the top of the path, behind the small barricade is two boxes of ammo. If
you go to the left, there will be more ammo for you to get. Once you get it
or don't move down the right path from the barricade.
Continue down the path keeping an eye out above the trench to your left.
Soldiers will come out of the smoke and shoot you. So be wary of that.
There will be a small clearing in the trenches that has a barricade in front
of you and a bunker to the left. A soldier will be firing at you from the
barricade and you need to take him out for starters. Crouch and approach the
bunker and kill the soldiers inside through the openings. Keep an eye out on
the hill to the left and move past the barricade to continue down the trench.
Keep to the left of the trench and approach the wooden wall. There is a
Rebel on the other side of the wall. There is a bunker to the left beyond the
wall as well as a barricade to the right at the end of the bunker. There will
be a soldier positioned behind the barricade on the right and a soldier on the
left behind the back of the bunker. Also, two soldiers on the hill looking
over the bunker. You got to take these guys out to move on safely with your
health intact. Use any grenades you might have left, trust me, you will get
more in a minute.
Once the soldiers are dead, move to the backside of the bunker for a secret
area to replenish your grenades. After that, move to the other side of the
bunker and up the hill back into the trenches. Approach the wounded Union
soldier who tells you there is a weak spot in the enemies defenses and that
you need to tell the commander about it.
CURRENT OBJECTIVES:
- Bring the note to the Commander.
- Eliminate all enemy resistance in the trenches.
Move down the trench and stick to the left side and approach the barricade.
Three soldiers are waiting to shoot you. A quick grenade over the barricade
should easily kill them all. Be warned, a guy might be hiding behind the
barricade at the end of the clearing. Scared the crap out of me and took off
two stars of health with one point blank pistol shot.
Approach that barricade and wait for at least two soldiers to run up the
trench at you. Kill them easily behind cover and the move down that trench.
Move through the trench and around a wall and toward the overhead bridges.
There will be a soldier with a rifle there and a wooden wall beyond him.
Behind that wall is a soldier with a pistol. Kill them and turn the corner
that's in front of the wall.
Keep moving forward past the opening between trenches. This was always empty
when I went through, be careful because there MIGHT be soldiers for you.
On the opposite side of the barricade is a med-kit, so get it if you need it
and always keep an eye out above the trench to the left for soldiers firing
down on you.
Run into the hill tunnel to be informed that the Commander is dead, but that
there will still be on final assault to try and send the Rebels back to
Richmond.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Attack the enemy camp.
Grab the med-kit in the tunnel if you need it and then exit the tunnel to
finish the fight. This is another great area to boost your kills for the
multiple achievements pertaining to kills.
Keep killing the soldiers and move to the enemy flag to finish the
Chattanooga mission.
==============================================================================
---------------------------
|Mission 4 - "Fort Fisher"|
--------------------------- [*NRTH4]
Mission Briefing - Fort Fisher:
"Men, this battle will be perhaps the most important event of your lives!
Wilmington has long been a thorn in the Union's side and must be taken
in order to eliminate Lee's supply line. Unfortunately, Fort Fisher is
heavily fortified and lies between us and our ultimate goal of Union
victory.
The good news is that our boys out at sea have been shelling the fort day
and night for nearly two and a half days. We should be able to advance
through a breach in the wall and fight our way tooth and nail to the
batteries!"
You begin on the beach after apparently exiting a boat from coastal ships.
You are instructed by your commanding officer to secure the landing zone and
then meet at a breach in the wall for further orders.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Meet with the soldier near the wall breach.
You begin on the beach behind a wooden wall where your troops are firing at
nothing apparently. The smoke and dirt flying from cannon blasts is rather
thick here. Move to the side of the fence and carefully scan for the one or
two Confederate troops that are at the next wall then kill them. It's clear
to move once your fellow soldiers move.
Move up towards the next wall, but go along the water on the beach because
several Rebels will appear from around the wall, the fence to the right of
the rocks on the right, and from behind the rocks themselves.
Just approach and fall back to a spot where you won't take too much damage
such as the wooden fence where you started. You need to take out the troops
on the wall to safely move to the next wall...more or less safely. Troops
will continue to respawn on the right side of the map. This is a good spot
to rack up kills for your achievements and mission end score as well.
Once the wall troops are killed, move along the beach and water on the left
of the map. Again, as with that first wall, troops will appear at every
breach in the second wall as you approach. Move up until you see them and
quickly fall back to the previous wall to safely fire on the soldiers.
As your fellow soldiers die along the wall, you can replenish ammo as well as
pick up new weapons. A Colt Rifle is a fine addition into your arsenal as it
packs a good punch.

Kill the soldiers at the second wall and then advance up to it. Approach the
mostly intact third wall and be cautious of the troops that will run out of
the opening as you get close to it. A good way past this with your health
intact is to throw a grenade and approach the wall. That way, the troops die
from the blast as they spawn. Also, the troops die fairly quickly from gun
fire from your troops, but they can still easily take off a star of health.
Pass through the opening and then quickly go back through it. A line of enemy
troops are lined up to the right and will fire once you walk through. The
soldier from earlier will tell you that the attack is a feint and that you
need to follow him through the swamps.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Follow the soldier to the swamp meeting point.
Kill the soldiers and then follow your fellow Union man across the beach.
Approach the barricade and just wait there. A group of soldiers will run down
the hill and take of defensive positions. You got to kill them all to safely
move along the path.
Go past the burning wall up the soldier from before. He will inform you
that he has been hit and it is now all up to you. He will give you some
explosives just incase and will tell you to blow up the cannon emplacements.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Use the explosive charges to destroy the cannons.
Grab the ammo, grenades, and med-kits from behind the soldier and walk to the
left side of the swamp. As you come up to some wooden planks on the ground,
two Confederates will appear out of the swamp brush.
Kill them and continue down the path towards the burning wagon. Run to the
wall on the left because at least three soldiers will emerge from the brush.
If only two appear, be careful as the other one might still be hidden by the
plants to the right.
As you round the burning wagon, another three soldiers will ambush you. So,
quickly duck behind the wagon and take them out. As you walk up to those
three soldiers, another three appear and again when you approach those bodies,
three more appear from behind the wall in front of you. The best thing is to
throw a grenade ahead of you as you approach the bodies. This will kill them
while you keep your health. For the last guys, run up to the barricade and
they will be in the open while you have cover.
At the fork in the swamp, again, choose the left path and as you approach the
bend after going left, another three soldiers appear. So grenade or shoot
them up as you head there.
When you make the turn, you will find a tree with two ammo boxes at the base
of its trunk. Walk up to the ammo boxes and look to the left. Walk forward
to pass through the tall grass here and onto a path of wooden planks.
Run up to the wall on the left and take cover as three or so troops will emerge
from the brush and attack. You will be unable to shoot over the wall even
though it may seem like you can. Your shots will go straight into the wall and
ruin your accuracy.
Once those troops are taken care of, continue down the path past the second
wall on the right and you should soon see a small building above the brush.
Continue forward to a clearing where four soldiers run out of this building to
shoot you. Kill all four and proceed into the structure. Turn to the right
of the door to find a white square in the corner. Go to it and press the
A Button to find the hidden picture of Fort Fisher.
After entering the building, quickly turn around as another four soldiers will
attempt to ambush you. You got to take them out and then face the wall
opposite of the door. There will be another four soldiers out there in the
water and brush. Use the smoke to find the soldiers in the grass.
Kill everyone and then exit the building and return to the tree with the ammo
boxes. Once at the tree, go to the ammo boxes and look at the tree. Go to
the right of the tree and continue along the path around it. Once around the
tree, more soldiers to kill will appear from the brush. There will be a
med-kit and grenades here to pick up as well if needed.
Run down the left side of this path to avoid cannon fire. No enemies should
appear as you killed them when you were getting the picture in this mission.
Round the bend in the path and follow it until you see a small clearing with
some wood planks on your left. This area is where another three soldiers
will ambush you. There is no cover here to hide behind, so it's a straight
on gun fight.
If you go left, you will see some ammo and a med-kit on the path at a bend.
When you get close, four troops will run out from the bushes and shoot at
you. Thankfully, you will get some back up, but you can quickly loose two or
three stars.
Once they are dead, grab the ammo and health if needed and head left again
around the corner and quickly duck and crawl behind the barricade.
Take out the soldiers down the way from here and then move on to the next
barricade where more soldiers will spawn in front of you. So, kill them and
then move from barricade to barricade avoiding the cannon fire from the fort.
You will come to a wooden gate which needs you to plant some explosive charges
there. So walk up to the red transparent barrel and press the A Button and
move away a far distance. Let the barrel and gate explode and move to the
right of the gate.
Peek into this area and take out the four to five soldiers who are there.
Once they are dead, grab the med-kit to the left of the gate if need be and
move on through the destroyed gate.
Walk down the path and grab any med-kits and rifle ammo from the two holes
in the walls on the left and continue down the path and enter the third hole.
Down the path, through the tunnel, three soldiers position themselves in
defensive areas to stop you. Kill them and then walk through the tunnel and
run past where they were and turn up the hill to the right. Run up to the
next barricade and wait for three soldiers to appear and shoot them.
Run past where they were and turn the corner and continue along the path and
move past a burning wagon to find a lot of cannons, barrels, and a tunnel.
Enter the tunnel and go through it to find a cannon and its crew. Kill the
crew and then plant the explosives where it is designated to go and enter the
next tunnel.
When you turn the corner in this tunnel, you will find another cannon crew and
four soldiers charging at you. Take cover and kill all six men in this area.
Once that is done, you will need to plant the explosives at the marked place.
Once planted, make your way into the next tunnel to avoid the blast.
You can obtain a Sharps musket from any of the cannon soldiers for your
information.
Again, you will find a cannon crew and at least one soldier behind the crates
to the rears of the cannon crew. At the end of the next tunnel will be two or
three soldiers firing at you. Take them and the cannon crew out then plant the
explosives.
Move into the last tunnel and kill the cannon crew then plant the explosives.
Remove yourself from the area and when the cannons explode, the game fades to
black marking the end of the Fort Fisher mission.
==============================================================================
---------------------
|Mission 5 - "Selma"|
--------------------- [*NRTH5]
Mission Briefing - Selma:
"It appears as though Ebenezer church has been overrun by filthy rebels!
Are we going to let that stand? It has been handed down to us to take the
fight to the Rebs and oust them from their positions around the church.
Expect heavy resistance from cannon, Gatling, and musket! We cannot
fail here, or the Union assault on Selma may be for naught."
You begin down the road from Ebenezer Church and are orders to eliminate the
Rebels there.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Eliminate the resistance at Ebenezer Church.
March on down the road to the church. Approach the wagon that has wrecked on
the spiked barricades and take cover behind it. A group a soldiers will be
lining themselves up along the church fences and this will prevent you from
taking a lot of damage and provides some cover to shoot back. You may also
use the trees to the right of the road. You can also run up to the left side
of the walls there and crouch. You don't take a lot of damage because it
seems as if the enemy is unable to really find you and will roam around trying
to do so giving you the opportunity to kill them easily. The choice is yours
and yours alone.
Once you kill the soldiers at that side of the church, if you are quick enough
you can claim their weapons for yourself and get a Colt Rifle instead of the
single shot musket you have. This is a tremendous help in any battle.
As you walk to the back to the church, three soldiers jump the fence and
attack you. So, just kill them and move on.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Use the trenches to get to the Commander.
Walk to the gate and the overturned wagon and walk to the right of it. You
will find a trench soon and that's where you need to go. If you continue
walking to the right, you will come under cannon and Gatling fire.
From the end of the trench, you can easily kill the Gatling gun crew for some
extra kills. If you do or don't, move through the trench to the soldier
waiting there.
He will give you a note that contains the orders for the squads of troops
waiting in the forests around Selma.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Use the trenches to bring the note to the Commander.
As you make your way through the trench, you will come to a clearing. This
clearing will have several soldiers firing at you and you will need to clear
them out to safely advance.
Move across the clearing and into the next trench to find two Rebels firing
their muskets across the field. Pop them in their heads so they do not fire
at you.
At the mouth to that second trench, look at the burning wagon to the left.
Mosey on over there and move to the right of the burning wagon to find a
secret area with some ammo.
Return to the second trench and enter it. Proceed through the trench to find
at least one soldier charging you about half way through it. Another soldier
may join him from the field by jumping into the trench, but he may also get
killed by a cannon blast and do a flip over the entire trench.
At the end of the second trench is another clearing where several troops run
into and take up defensive positions. Either stay in the trench or run to the
barricade where a fellow Union soldier lies. After clearing the first group,
another group will come out and attack you.
Proceed up that small hill and go on into the third trench. To the left is
a med-kit, rifle ammo and musket ammo. Grab them if you need them and proceed
down the trench to find three Confederate crouching and taking shots across
the field. If you stay where the ammo is and slowly walk and shoot, they will
never fire back if you aim your shots carefully.
Continue past them and slowly move down the trench to find another three
firing across the fields. Repeat the same method as the previous troops and
you can get through this unscathed.
This trench will raise up and essentially end and there will be two Rebel
soldiers waiting at the top. As you approach though, your soldiers jump
the sandbags and kill them for you. Exit the third trench and either find and
kill the soldiers further down the fourth trench or just enter the trench and
deal with them at a closer range. Either way, they're already shooting at you
from your current position.
Enter that fourth trench and proceed through it. Ignore the Gatling Gun as no
enemy soldiers appear when you do and you may get a few shots in the back.
Turn the corner to find another Gatling Gun, but this one has a crew...unless
you killed them after exiting trench three.
As you near the exit of the fourth trench, some enemies are lined up near a
burning wagon. You got to kill them in order to safely proceed and get some
goodies.
When you have taken care of the soldiers stand at the exit of the trench and
turn to the left. Look at that singled out barrel barricade thing. Walk up
to it and find the document on the ground and press the A Button. You have
just found the hidden picture at Selma.
Put the picture away and turn around to face the burning wagon. Walk to the
left of it and be quick to take some shots. Two soldiers will quickly take
some shots at you from the fifth trench. Kill them and walk forward to find
some more soldiers above the trench shooting across the field. Kill them as
well and move through the trench to the exit in the woods where you can find
a med-kit to the left of the exit and a soldier.
The soldier says he'll provide cover as you two make your way through the
woods to the Commander.
As you proceed through, be ready at the first bend in the woods that goes
to the left. There will be three soldiers waiting for you there with
muskets.
Go past their bodies to a turn to the right and there will be another two or
three soldiers along the path waiting for you with their muskets. Kill them
and be careful of the cannon fire along the path you must take.
You will come to a large clearing with a hill, a lot of wrecked wagons and
a large number of enemy troops along the hill. Kill the enemies here by
utilizing the trees in the woods or rushing to the wagons. Once they're dead
climb over the hill or walk around it and move up to the Union soldiers
waiting on the path.
You will give the note to the Commander and he will state that his soldiers
are already in the city and have destroyed ammunition depots and supply lines.
The attack is now on then the screen fades to black and that marks the end of
the Selma mission.
==============================================================================
--------------------------
|Mission 6 - "Petersburg"|
-------------------------- [*NRTH6]
Mission Briefing - Petersburg:
"Petersburg will be a great victory for the Union when we clear its streets
of all Confederate forces! For too long this war has gone on, and it is
time for us to rise up and eliminate the enemy presence throughout the
south.
In the city we must be ready for enemy sharpshooters in the windows,
Rebs around every corner, and barricades blocking our path. Keep a
sharp eye, and give them hell for our beloved country!"
You begin with your Commanding Officer telling you he wants the streets
cleared. Then he gets shot by a sharpshooter.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Kill the enemy snipers.
There will be one to your left in the white building in the top middle
window. After that guy, is taken out, move right and find the building to
the right of the previous one. It will say, "Godspeed Machine Co." on it.
The sniper is in the middle window there as well.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Clear the streets of enemy presence.
Cross the bridge and stand behind the set of sandbags and wait for the enemy
to come to you. This will give you protection from multiple enemies by
allowing your troops to give backup and you will not get surrounded in a
bottle neck.
As you move down the street, several soldiers appear on the bank of the river
across from the road you are on. This will be quite hurtful as they open
fire quite quickly. You can fall back to the sandbags or attempt to take
cover behind some wagons.
More soldiers appear across the river when you grab the med-kit next to the
wagon. So be prepared for that attack as well.
Move forward from the med-kit and wagon and prepare yourself because three
soldiers are about to be right in front of you. Kill them with either hand
to hand combat or something with multiple shots. After that, round the
corner and move down the street to the next wagon.
As you approach the wagon, there will be three soldiers behind the sandbags
to the left. Kill them before fully entering the area.
Enter the area and turn to the right to find at least five soldiers entering
the fight. Two from the alley, two from climbing over the wagon, and two
in the windows of the building to the left of the wagon. There will be at
least two or three waves of soldiers from those area. Afterwards, some
soldiers will begin to appear from around the house in the back of this area.
If you are quick to grab weapons before they vanish, you can grab yourself a
Scoped Sharps Rifle.
CURRENT OBJECTIVES:
- Find some explosives to clear the way.
- Clear the streets of enemy presence.
Kill the enemies and then move to the back of the area past the fountain.
There will be a building with a Gatling Gun in front of it above and archway.
Move to the front of this building and walk through the arch to the
T intersection. If you go to the right and walk to the back of this area,
you can find a med-kit behind some barrels.
You need to take the left path though for the objective. So go ahead and
take the left path. Walk onto the grass and turn right to find a lot of
barrels. Walk to the backside of the barrels to pick up the explosives.
CURRENT OBJECTIVES:
- Place explosives near the wagon.
- Clear the streets of enemy presence.
Turn around from where you grabbed the explosive and you should see a small
white mark on the ground near a dead Union soldier. Go ahead and walk over
there and look at the document on the ground and press the A Button. This is
Petersburg's hidden document.
Now, return to the overturned wagon the Confederate were jumping over. Look
at the red transparent barrel and press the A Button to plant the explosives.
Move away from them some distance and wait for it to explode.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Free the prisoners by destroying the prison gates.
Walk through the newly created path and hang a right. Walk up to the spiked
barricade and then creep back into the alley as a few soldiers will run out
and begin shooting you. From the alley, you can pop out and take them out
one-by-one. There will be a med-kit to your right if it is needed.
Cross the bridge and prepare for another five soldiers to come out from
behind that wagon. Kill the initial troops and when you get next to the
wagon itself, another set of five or so will appear. Kill them all and then
march up the road to find the prison gates to the right with the red
transparent barrel in front of it.
Run to the barrel and place the explosive and move away until the explode.
Enter the prison and find the other gate and repeat what you just did to the
previous gate to complete the objective.
Exit the prison through the blasted gate and head down the alley.
A soldier jumps out of a window and runs to the end of the alley. Approach
him and he'll state that he wants to be the person to bring down the Rebel
flag.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Bring down the enemy flag.
Don't let that soldier beat you. Move out into the streets and take cover
as you will be taking fire from all sides. At least two waves will come
from over the spiked barricade to your left. There will be some grenades
to the left as well, but you will have to contend with the soldiers jumping
the barricade and a sniper that's in a window to the building on the left
of the alleyway.
Grab the grenades when you can and run to the wagons. There will be soldiers
to the right behind some sand bags and one or two more sharpshooters. Take
out the soldiers and approach the red bricked arch and grab the med-kit in
the middle of the wagons if needed.
The Confederate are going to make one last assault with about ten soldiers.
Throw those grenades into the area and shoot like crazy. Soon you will see
Confederate soldiers in the background surrendering to you.
Proceed through the arch and walk to the flag and ladder. Press the A Button
to watch your soldiers salute and help wounded Confederate soldiers. The
camera will pan up and display the stars and stripes of the United States of
America.
The screen will then fade to black marking the end of the Petersburg mission
as well as the end to the North missions. Congrats on being half-way done if
you are totally following this.

|SOUTH Walkthrough|
=================
------------------------
|Mission 1 - "Bull Run"|
------------------------ [*SOTH1]
Mission Briefing - Bull Run:
"You are fighting for the glorious Confederate army! The Army of the
Potomac is under the impression that they can stem the flow of our fine
soldiers at Bull Run and our inevitable march on their capital.
Lying in our way are soldiers with cannons and barricades, muskets and
bayonets. Our cavalry must lead a charge on the left flank of the Union
army, and they need your help! Cannons firing on our positions require
elimination forthwith so we can clear the way for the cavalry brigade!"
Apparently, this battle will win the war for the South. Your fellow
soldiers run off to fight and leave you by yourself.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Destroy the cannons.
So, run straight ahead from the direction you are facing. You will take
some explosive charges. Run towards the barricade for cover from the
soldiers to your left and then run to the wagon in front of you. As
you approach, the wagon will explode, so move between the burning
wagon and the covered wagon towards the barricade.
There will be at least three soldiers setting up a defensive position,
so you will need to kill them.
Once they are dead, move up to the wagon they set up behind and more
soldiers will attack you. Watch your back as some soldiers will
approach the wooden fence from the hill.
Finish the soldiers and make your way across the bridge and more
soldiers will begin to attack you.
Support your fellow soldiers and take out the five or so troops that
have attacked you. Be careful of going to far forward toward the
objective. There will be a soldiers with a six-shot pistol on the
opposite side of the wall who seems to hit you six times. This is
pretty much instant death on the HARD difficulty level. So, you
may want to think about saving.
Make your way past the wagon and past the end of the bridge then turn
to your left. Assault the soldier on the path who has the pistol with
your grenades. After he is dead, go to the opposite side of the covered
wagon at the end of the bridge. You can slowly move yourself out of
the cover from the wagon to kill each soldier but one. This also
includes the cannon crew. This method works great on HARD.
Make your way down the path between the spiked gates. There should
be one soldier left behind the covered wagon. Sometimes he moves out
from behind it while you are taking cover previously. So, you may have
killed him, but be careful on HARD. Some soldiers will shoot at you
from across the river where the cannons were pointed as you enter the
area with the cannons. This is very annoying on HARD.
This Guide Was Created By The GameFAQs member TheMegamanX.
This guide is Copyright 2009-2011 by A. Capone-Langan.
As you approach the cannons, a lot of soldiers will charge down the hill
behind the cannons and covered wagon to jump the fence and kill you.
Quickly plant the explosive charge by pressing the A Button on the red
transparent barrel and use a grenade on the cluster of soldiers. Now,
run back up to the covered wagon on the bridge before the cannons
explode and those soldiers kill you. Those soldiers will keep running
from the atop the hill, so do not sit there and fight unless you need
kills for achievements on EASY difficulty.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Find your commanding officer.
Make your way back across the bridge towards the soldiers at the end
of it. Occasionally, there will be up to four enemy soldier standing
around at the end of the bridge right near the commanding officer.
So, stay to the right side of the bridge and carefully check this as
you approach. When you get to the commanding officer, he will tell
you that you need to destroy three barricades in the middle of the
enemy positions. He will then give you more explosive charges.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Destroy the 3 barricades with your explosive charges.
Make your way down the road past where you started the battle of
Bull Run. Keep running down the road into the fog of war. The fog
will clear near a cluster of wagon. As you approach, enemy soldiers
will appear from between some of the wagons. Go to the left of the
left wagon as there is an explosive barrel in the road. The enemy
will gladly set this off to kill you.
Make your way past the first two wagons toward a third. Three
soldiers will run out from behind that wagon. Kill them and go
behind the barricade because five more soldiers are going to attack
from behind the burning wagon. A decent strategy on HARD is to run
to the barricade and then run back behind the wagons. Your troops
advance and will kill them for you.
Move past the burning wagon to watch another covered wagon explode
and flip over. Some soldiers will spawn further up and your fellow
troops will advance. They will die and leave you alone to fight.
Move past the burning wagon toward the two destroyed wagons. A few
more troops will run from the trees in front of you and attack.
Move forward and observe a wagon being blasted over. Run back
because it spilled an explosive charge and it is going to explode.
Once the barrel explodes, take cover in that wagon. You will then be
told to take out a snipers nest.
Make your way toward the snipers nest using the barricades for cover.
During this assault, be wary of the troops to your right that are
firing beyond the spiked fencing. Once you move beyond that first
grouping of soldiers past the fence, more will set up behind some
barricades down the field. Again, be wary of them as you take on the
sniper.
Probably the easiest way to kill the sniper is to stop at the first
barricade after being told to kill him. Pop up and take a shot at him.
Approach that second barricade and look at the next one. You should
spot a cannon and a barrel next to the fence. Make some distance
between yourself and the barrel and shoot the barrel. Proceed through
the blown fence to find a secret area. Turn to the right and find the
corpse lying there. Pick up this missions hidden picture.
Head to the sniper tower and continue up the road. Some soldiers will
attack from your right as you move past the wooden fence. Take them
out or keep running. You have some backup and they should keep those
soldiers off of you.
Keep to the road until you are blocked by wagons. Proceed through the
opening in the broken fence and keep a steady head and watchful eye.
There are at least three soldiers in the field to the left of the
burning wagon and three past the hay stacks on the right.
Enter the field on the left and turn left to the wagon. Walk behind
the wagon to find a secret area with some health and ammo. Go to the
burning wagon and there should be about another three to five troops
that run into the field. Kill them and continue into the clearing
towards the barricades with the red transparent barrel.
Place the first barrel with the A Button and run away. Once it
explodes, troops will appear to the left and right from the trees.
Two will set up behind the barrel looking barricade and the other two
will stand around.
Kill them and place the second charge. Again, run away and then more
soldiers will appear from the forests on the left and right sides.
Two on the left and one on the right.
Kill the three soldiers and then place the last charge.
When the barricade explodes, an FMA (Full Motion Animation) will
play where a cavalry charge occurs through the blown barricades.
That marks the end of Bull Run.
==============================================================================
----------------------
|Mission 2 - "Shiloh"|
---------------------- [*SOTH2]
Mission Briefing - Shiloh:
"Under normal circumstances, an entire platoon would be assaulting this
camp in order to sabotage the Union's supplies, but we are all there is
and this plan must succeed!
You'll have to sneak through the camp in order to steal strategic
documents from the general, sabotage the survey balloon and then
destroy the supply depot on your way out. Success requires all of your
cunning, so stay low and quiet, and don't be afraid to silence any
Federals along the way with your knife."
You begin on a beach in the middle of the night. Your commanding officer
informs you that you need to sneak into the middle of the Union camp and
steal some documents from the General's tent. Then, sabotage their
survey balloon and blow up their ammo depot on the way out. All of this
while staying in the shadows and slitting throats while you do.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Steal the strategic documents.
Now, not once have I ever not been detected. So, that's how Shiloh is
going to be written by me. To the best of my abilities of not being
discovered, but constantly being found.
Proceed along the beach in the shadows toward the tower. Stop at the
wagon and move behind the tree. Keep an eye on the tower guard and
when he starts looking around, make a run for the over turned wagon to
the left.
Crouch again and follow the soldier on the opposite side of the
barricade when he begins to walk towards the tents. This is where I
often get discovered. Knife him and then kill everyone around with
the revolver.
Move to the left of the camp, right by the barricade from before.
Crouch down and sneak through the tents there. If you go to the right,
you will be seen due to the light from the camp fires and that will
spawn some soldiers into the area you just cleared behind you.
You need to make your way to the next grouping of tents. I have never
successfully made it past the wagon without being shot at by the soldiers
there. Either way, stay along the fence behind the tents. Your target
is the wooden hut. Get in there and press the A Button while looking
at the papers.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Sabotage the balloon.
Head down the path along the river bank until the end. Crouch and wait
for two soldiers to walk down the small path on the left. You should
be able to knife them or shoot them from the river bank itself.
Head up the dirt path and stay to the left. There is a camp fire with
at least three soldiers here. You are able to use any weapon and kill
them with a clean shot to the head and not alert the others right there.
You can use the pistol, aim, and then fire one round at their head.
They will drop dead and the other soldiers there will remain standing.
You can also pick off two soldiers at another fire near the balloon and
a soldier between some tents to the right of the first fire. That will
make this area a small portion easier on the harder difficulties.
Move to the right along the wooden fence and move along the backside of
the tents. Move to the cannons and you are then able to kill the last
soldier by the fire that is near the balloon. There is also a soldier
a little past the cannons between some tents. Round the cannons and you
should see him to dispatch the same way as the rest.
Go past the fire and up to the balloon. Look at the rope and press the
A Button to cut it loose.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Destroy the depot with the explosive charges.
When you cut the rope, run behind the wagon on the left side of the area
where the balloon was. The tower that is near the fire, there will be
two soldiers that will spawn once the rope is cut. Hiding behind the
wagon allows you to shoot them in the head and remain undetected.
Approach the tower from the left along the woods to stay out of the
light. There is ammo at the tower base and a med-kit between the
cannons to the right of the tower. Get them if needed.
Round the corner and there will be one soldier in sight in front of the
wagon. Take care of him and approach the camp. As you near, two
soldiers will come around the wagon near the camp fire on the left.
Take them out or attempt to ignore them, but stay to the right side of
the camp in the shadows.
There will be at least five soldiers in total near the back cluster of
tents. Kill them all and cross the road to the small grouping of tents
where the road bends towards the ammo depot. Move behind the tents to
find this missions hidden picture.
Turn around and head up the road to the tower and ammo depot.
There are at least four soldiers here. Two can be taken out from
the area you claimed the hidden picture from. The other two will be
behind the wagon that is placed to the left of the depot. Once they
are dead, move to the red transparent barrel and press the A Button.
Run between the two wood huts towards the church. Continue running to
the barricades where some of your fellow soldiers run out of the woods
and begin an assault up the hill against some Union soldiers who are
advancing down the hill. Find cover and dispatch these soldiers.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Proceed forward to the docks.
When the soldiers on the hill are dead, continue up. Three soldiers
will jump out from behind the wooden wall in front of you. Kill them
the proceed through the opening to the hut. Another soldier will jump
out of the hut and another two will appear behind you. Kill them and
move forward to the next two walls. After you pass the first wall and
are approaching the second, four soldiers jump out at you. Kill them
and then continue pass the wall.
Two soldiers will run down the hill towards you and another two are
fighting a fellow Southerner at the top of the hill. Again, kill them
all.
Continue down the path and the screen will fade to black.
This marks the successful completion of Shiloh.
==============================================================================
------------------------
|Mission 3 - "Antietam"|
------------------------ [*SOTH3]
Mission Briefing - Antietam:
"Listen up, soldiers! We need to secure the nearby farms and protect our
cannons at all costs. It is imperative that we keep our eyes and ears
sharp, as the enemy is sneaky and might try to infiltrate the woods to
gain access from our rear of flank.
They are advancing on our positions right this moment, so get up to the
line and hold the Yanks back with vim and vigor! Our forces in the
vicinity of Antietam must stay strong!"
As the mission begins, you find out the Yanks have crossed the bridge.
You are tasked with defending the cannons.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Hold the position on the barricade.
Once control is given to the user, move to the barricade in front of you.
Stand at the barricade and kill all of the blue coats that appear. After
a few minutes, you will be given a new objective.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Secure the area near the farm.
Leave the barricade and proceed through the trees towards a burning wagon.
Turn right and head through the trees past a river to receive some orders
to protect the cannons from advancing enemy.
CURRENT OBJECTIVES:
- Eliminate the enemy soldiers heading to the cannons.
- Secure the area near the farm.
Continue past the kneeling soldier to a downed tree with barrels under it.
Take position and eliminate the enemies inside the small camp. Make your
way through the camp until reaching the turned over and destroyed wagon.
Turn left and head towards that large tent. Walk around behind the tent
to find a secret area with some grenades. Soldiers will continuously
come from over the hill beyond the fence. Just take cover and shoot them
as they appear. Eventually, the objective will complete.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Secure the area near the farm.
Continue forward towards the gates at the end of the road and turn right
to march through the woods. Proceed through the woods until coming to a
crop clearing with some farm houses. Eliminate the soldiers and proceed
behind the barricade that was to your right when entering the clearing.
The objective will complete and another soldier will present you with a
new objective.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Eliminate all enemy forces near the cannons.
From the barricade, find the wounded soldier. Look in the direction
he is facing and head toward the wooden fencing amongst the buildings.
When reaching the fencing, turn right to find another secret area with
some ammo and a med-kit.
Proceed back to the barricade and then head to the right of the wagon
where you entered the area at. There previously was a burning tree that
has now been cleared.
You will come across another small encampment with soldiers. Kill them
all to advance the war effort. At the end of the tents, the dirt path
forks behind you. So, turn to the right and follow the path. There
will be two soldiers waiting for you, but just kill them and continue
down the path to a downed tree. At the base of the tree is the missions
hidden document.
Return down the dirt path and continue down the other direction toward
the objective. Keep going up the hill toward the objective eliminating
all opposition until reaching a clearing with a tower and cannon blasts
going off. Kill the few soldiers and head towards the tower to complete
the objective and receive a new one.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Use the cannon to stop the enemy on the bridge
Run down to the row of cannons and press the A Button to use one.
Remember, this isn't some magic bullet weapon. This is a cannon. With
that said, you need to compensate for the weight of the cannon ball by
targeting higher for the location you wish to hit. So, to hit the top
of the bridge, you would need to aim about two inches above where you
want the cannonball to explode.
Continue to bombard the troops on the bridge and eventually the game
will fade to black with the completion of Antietam.
==============================================================================
--------------------------------
|Mission 4 - "Chancellorsville"|
-------------------------------- [*SOTH4]
Mission Briefing - Chancellorsville:
"The woods around Chancellorsville are rife with enemy encampments
and signal towers. The Confederacy needs you to sneak through the
trees, eliminating all enemy presence in order to destroy the towers.
After the towers are gone, the ammunition depot must be dealt with.
Light it and the whole thing should go up. If we're lucky, the resulting
chaos will set the trees alight and inflict heavy damage on the Federals."
The mission opens with you and two soldiers crouching in the woods. One
of the two men proceed to tell you that you need to take out the snipers
and signal towers along the path.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Destroy both signal towers.
Proceed onto the dirt path through the woods and follow it past a burning
wagon. Make a slight left and continue down the dirt path past two wood
barricades. As you make your way toward the wrecked wagon, you will come
under sniper fire. Continue to the barricade after the wagon and kill the
sniper. Walk toward the tower and go the left side of it for a secret area
with some grenades.
Continue down the path past the burning wagon where you will eventually
find an enemy encampment. Take cover and kill any enemies encountered.
When proceeding into the camp, you will receive backup and a decent battle
ensues. At the base of the tower, press the A Button on the transparent
red barrel to place a 'real' explosive barrel. Run like the wind blows
and get away from the tower.
When the tower explodes, head to the back of the camp to find another
dirt path. Defeat the enemies you encounter and keep trudging through the
path up the hill.
You will be ambushed by four men when you approach a burning wagon in the
road. Defeat the soldiers and move through the two wagons and continue
along the trail until you find another encampment with the last signal
tower.
Proceed with caution as you receive no backup this time. Just eliminate
the soldiers and then make your way to the base of the signal tower.
Once again, press the A Button on the transparent barrel to place an
explosive barrel and run away. When the tower explodes, that marks the
completion of the first objective.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Find your commanding officer.
From the entrance to the camp, proceed past the tents and wagons to a
small barricade. Beyond the barricade is a small clearing. Head up the
clearing to find the dying commanding officer. He will give you your
next objective.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Destroy the ammunition depot.
Turn to the right of where the commanding officer is and walk toward the
med-kit. This will be another secret area found for you.
Go back down the clearing into the camp and keep heading straight toward
the cannons past the tower rubble. Move through the two wagons to the path.
As you approach the pile of wood, three soldiers will attack you. Take care
of them and continue where two more will be waiting around the bend. After
those two, three more soldiers appear from behind the covered wagon as you
approach.
Go past the covered wagon once the soldiers are dead and toward the cluster
of wagons. An ambush has been sprung. Do not enter the cluster of wagons.
There are explosive barrels amongst them and the soldiers will gladly set
off to kill you. Ignite the barrels yourself or wait for one of them to do
it, but either way, kill the soldiers and then keep moving.
Another four soldiers attack you after jumping over an overturned wagon with
wood railings. After they are taken care of, four more soldiers attack as
you move past the large rock to the left of the path. Kill them and proceed
up the path where you will find an enemy camp and the ammunition depot.
Kill the enemies in the camp and approach the structure with the red barrel.
Do not place the barrel yet. Walk around the far side of this building to
find the hidden document on this mission.
Swing back around to the front side and place the explosive barrel and run
like the dickens.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- LEAVE THE DEPOT!
Run back down the way you entered the camp from other wise you will die.
As you run down the hill, the game fades to black marking the completion
of Chancellorsville.
==============================================================================
---------------------------
|Mission 5 - "Chickamauga"|
--------------------------- [*SOTH5]
Mission Briefing - Chickamauga:
"General Bragg may be said to retreat from the gates of Heaven itself, but
in all my life I've never seen such bold move as to stop and fight the
Yankees here near Chickamauga Creek. We will be right beside him with
musket and bayonet!
Your scout group must scour the area for enemy positions and lines of
resistance. Do not hesitate to clear out Northern skirmishers from our
rightful land, as victory is a necessity in this great stand."
You begin the mission with your commanding officer informing you that you
are in command of a band of soldiers. He will then task you with killing
all enemy encountered and to clear the nearby farms.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Clear all farms of hostile presence.
Follow the road around the bend toward a town with wagons in it. As you
approach, you and your troops will come under cannon fire.
CURRENT OBJECTIVES:
- Take out the enemy artillery!
- Clear all farms of hostile presence.
Run across the wooden bridge into the town itself. As you cross, the bridge
it destroyed by the cannons. The cannons are located on the other side of
the small house in front of you. The easiest way to reach them is by turning
to your right and going behind the two-story house.
A soldier will attack you on the backside of the house, so kill him and keep
moving. Run to the right along the gate and woods towards the wagon and
stacks of hay. Move through the hay stacks up to the lone cannon and take
the soldier out. Then, proceed along the backside of the building and kill
the other two soldiers.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Clear all farms of hostile presence.
After taking out the last cannon soldier, proceed right along the trees to
a distant four stacks of hay. Not the first stacks, but the ones way in
the back. You will find a road which you need to turn right on and continue
on this path until the path clears. You will be attacked by three soldiers
as the open land unveils another farm to you.
Head to the right across the field toward a lone wagon at the end of the
wooden gate. Run up to it and look at the rock and press the A Button.
This will remove the rock and cause the wagon filled with explosive to roll
in the midst of all the enemies.
Turn to the right of the wagon and dispatch all the soldiers in that small
camp.

Once that is done, return to the area where the wagon rolled to and finish
off all of the soldiers that survived the explosion.
Approach the covered wagon in the corner of the gates closest to where you
entered the area. There will be a dead soldier leaning against it. At his
feet is the missions hidden document.
Now, continue to the back of the farm and on down the dirt road to the next
farm. As you approach, two soldiers are waiting. Dispatch them and watch
a man get shot from his horse and continue into the middle of the farm.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Pick up the note from the dead courier.
Run over to the dead courier and press the A Button while looking at the
note.
CURRENT OBJECTIVES:
- Use the wagon to get to the general.
- Bring the note to your Commander.
Run to the left towards a dirt path. At the end of the path is a wagon.
As you approach, a fellow soldier jumps in it and tells you to hop in.
So, press the A Button to jump into the wagon and man the Gatling gun.
This part is straight forward. Just shoot anything that moves and is in
blue. As you approach the small farm house, there will be a Gatling gun
behind it. Make sure the Gatling gun is already turned to shoot at it as
the wagon makes its way past the building.
The wagon will stop and you must press the A Button to exit it. Proceed
past the wagon along the dirt road with your fellow troops.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Bring the note to your Commander.
Just stay the course on the road through the clearing and back into the
woods. Jump over the pile of logs and make your way back to your Commander.
That marks the end of the Chickamauga mission.
==============================================================================
---------------------------
|Mission 6 - "Cold Harbor"|
--------------------------- [*SOTH6]
Mission Briefing - Cold Harbor:
"The Army of the Potomac is fast advancing on our positions and we have
a need to strike the Nationals where it will be felt the most. One of the
most important areas we can attack is the supply line near Cold Harbor.
You and the other men are going to have to ford the river and advance on
the telegraph station at the top of the hill. After you destroy the valuable
telegraph machine, user powder to destroy the bridge and Grant's
valuable avenue of supplies."
Dusk is upon you as the mission begins. Your CO relates what the mission
briefing told you as usual. Then he runs off.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Proceed to the station and sabotage the telegraph.
Head down the hill and eventually you come across a small camp with three
soldiers around the fire. Take them out and run to the camp fire. Turn
left and you shall see another small camp across the river.
Cross the river and take out all the enemy soldiers. Go to the backside of
the building in the right of the camp in order to find a secret area with a
box of grenades, a med-kit, and the hidden picture in the Cold Harbor
mission.
Return to the front side and head up the hill while taking out all of the
Union soldiers defending it. Once on top of the hill, follow the path that
is laid in front of you. Eventually you will come across a train station
with a good deal of Union soldiers.
There is no good strategy except for take cover and save often as soldiers
will respawn a few times as you roam around the area.
When entering the area, the building to your left is the objective target.
Proceed inside the building and find the telegraph on the desk. Press the
A Button while looking at it to sabotage it.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Take the explosives and use them to destroy the bridge.
Exit the building and make two lefts. There will be another three soldiers
standing around. They just exited the building where you need to pick up
the explosives. Kill the men and then grab some explosives from the
building.
CURRENT OBJECTIVE:
- Place the explosive charges on the bridge pillars.
Exit the building and turn to the right and head towards the small white
wind mill. To the left is a med-kit and to the right of the med-kit is
some ammo and a Gatling gun.
From the wind mill, head straight towards the bridge. There will be a
path that leads down to the base of the bridge. Follow that path.
You will come under fire from some soldiers who spawned. So, kill them
and then continue to the base of the bridge where the red transparent
barrels are. Look at the red barrel and press the A Button to place
the barrel. You need to do it to both and the first one is not set to
explode until the second barrel is placed.
Once both are charges are set, run back up the hill. The game will fade
to black and then you will see an FMA of the bridge exploding.
This marks the end of the Cold Harbor mission and then end of the game
if you followed the order in which I listed the missions. Huzzah!

6. Achievement Guide
---------------------- [*ACHIV]
So, with this guide, users who enjoy and play
The History Channel: Civil War - A Nation Divided, will unlock all of the
achievements.
There are a total of fifty achievements that users can obtain for a total of
1000 Gamerscore.
The best way to obtain all of the achievements is to begin by playing on
the Easy Difficulty as I had instructed earlier. Using my walkthrough from
above, only a slight modification in how you proceed through a mission is
needed to obtain all of the achievements.
I will suggest attempting to earn the Pistoleer achievement first and foremost.
The reason being, is that people proclaim this to be bugged. I had no
problems unlocking it myself. Simply kill everything in sight while playing
the first time through on easy with only the pistol. The game will only
record stats on replayed levels if the point total is HIGHER than the previous
time you played it. So, by playing it on easy, the user will not be getting
any difficulty bonuses from any missions. So, when completing the game
on Easy, and then going back on Normal or Hard, it will record the totals from
those play throughs as the difficulty bonuses should pretty much push the point
totals over the previous limit. This will also help with the General
achievement.
Anyway, here is the achievement guide in a suggested order if following my
advice and walkthrough:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- "Private" for 5 Gamerscore.
To earn this award you must kill 20 of your enemies.
Easily obtained in one level when using the pistol for the "Pistoleer"
achievement.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- "Sergeant" for 15 Gamerscore.
To earn this award you must kill 50 of your enemies.
This will unlock after playing the second level when using the pistol for the
"Pistoleer" achievement so long as you kill everyone on both levels.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- "Lieutenant" for 50 Gamerscore.
To earn this award you must kill 100 of your enemies.
This will unlock most likely after the fourth mission when using the pistol
when going after the "Pistoleer" achievement.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- "Pistoleer" for 50 Gamerscore.
To earn this award you must kill 100 of your enemies with your pistol.
If you used JUST the pistol through about four, maybe a fifth, level, then
this should have unlocked right around the same time as the "Lieutenant"
achievement.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- "Knife Master" for 50 Gamerscore.
To earn this award you must kill 75 of your enemies with your knife.
The knife is an actual weapon that is selectable with the Directional Pad.
Do not confuse that with the Right Bumper's melee hit. Also, this applies
to the sword that certain characters have instead of the Bowie knife.
Simply walk through levels on easy and knife or sword the heck out of
all the soldiers you see. This one will unlock when replaying levels on
the same difficulty or lower.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
- "Melee Hero" for 30 Gamerscore.
To earn this award you must kill 50 of your enemies in close combat.
That means using the Right Bumper melee attack on fifty total enemies.
Simply walk through missions on easy and melee every enemy that is
encountered. This achievement will unlock when replaying levels on the same
difficulty or lower.
