Checkpoints, random harassment, torture, genocide, experiments on prisoners and civilians, no one is safe from the Nazi's now. Britain was the last hope of freedom for many in the city of lights, but now that the Swastika flies over Buckingham palace, most have given up all hope whatsoever. The city is dying, every night the blinding spotlights reach up into the sky looking for any threat, but all they do is light up the many zeppelins that in turn show light onto the empty streets devoid of people. The people no longer take to the streets in confidence, for they live in fear of the soldiers and SS who constantly hunt down and kill agents from foreign countries. A small resistance has formed but with no support or allies to call upon their cause is little more than a thorn in the side of the Nazi war machine.<br/><br/>(http://www.supercheats.com/guides/files/guid/the-saboteur/1.3-zones.jpg)<br/><br/>Now however a new ruler has come to the city from an extended stay in Berlin, enemy number one to the allied powers General Eckhart was appointed to the command of the Paris military district. The man who played an important part in destroying the allied assaults and attempts to retake Britain and North Africa had been assigned to a cushy desk job in Paris, or so it would seem. Now that he is in command, the bleak city has been transformed into a virtual prison, the city is closed off and divided into zones. Rumors of disappearing people, strange lights and sightings at night have been reported. It appears that Eckhart is up to more than running an occupation. Now allied agents in the area have been assigned the task of handling the "Eckhart Situation".<br/><strong><br/>Intro Mission Briefing:</strong><br/><br/>You (the player) have been placed inside the fortress of Paris to investigate the strange happenings in the city. Vague reports show many high level Nazi and military officials are gathering at the Eiffel tower for a grand party in honor of General Eckhart's newest award the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/99/Knight%27sCrossOfTheIronCrossWithGoldenOakleavesSwordsAndDiamonds.jpg). Agent have been instructed to infiltrate the party through any means necessary and complete several tasks.<br/><br/>1) Some agents must find a way to gain an Audience with General Eckhart, besides vague reports and rumors, personality of General unknown, agents must find out what the man is like so that they may know what to expect from him in the future.<br/>2) Since many high level officers will be at the party there is bound to be lots of Classified files and gossip surrounding the party. A stealthy approach when entering the party with a disguise of some sorts is highly recommended, any possible killings could jeopardize the over all mission. This task is to be done by other agents while some keep the higher officials busy with idle talk.<br/><em><br/>Bonus objective: </em>Since this is an awards ceremony, many important or significant items may be around the area of the officers, be on the look out for items that could help in future missions.<br/><br/><strong>Layout of the party:</strong><br/><br/>The party at the Eiffel tower is divided into two zones.<br/><br/>A) lower level of Eiffel tower contains lower officers and aides, some intelligence may be gained but it is small compared to the big fish upstairs.<br/><br/>B) the middle portion of the Eiffel tower contains the real party. This is where Eckhart is supposed to be meeting with his friends from Berlin and many other high level officers. Getting to this area is crucial to the mission. This area will be the most difficult to infiltrate due to the high security of the zone. Agent will have to think hard and work together to be able to access the higher level.<br/><strong><br/>Possible ways to infiltrate lower party:</strong><br/>1) The soldiers guarding the lower levels are half-drunk and inattentive to the task they have been given, they will not be as suspicious as would your normal soldier on the street. A quick disguise as a waiter or help would possibly be one way into the tower itself.<br/>2) Since many high level officers will be attending, the security at the bottom of the tower wouldn't dare question the guest/date of an important officer and would quickly allow access to the tower without much interference.<br/><br/>High Risk Methods:<br/>3) Since the soldiers are not paying much attention to their duties, they are not hard targets to take out quietly and stash their bodies in an enclosed area, but be sure to not alert the other guards<br/>4) You could approach the soldiers without identification and demand entrance to the tower based on being "an important guest of General Eckhart". The soldiers may become confused and fear for their lives and may grant access to the tower without hassling.<br/><br/><strong>Possible ways to Infiltrate the Higher Party:</strong><br/>The guards at the elevators to the mid-section of the tower are the crack SS troopers, they will not be as easy to pass as the half-drunk Wehrmacht soldiers guarding the bottom levels.<br/>1) General Eckhart is an opulent man, if a gift/tribute of sufficient worth is brought with you, you could be allowed access to the higher party without much searching or questions by the guards.<br/>2) Finding and seducing a high level officer who was late to the party and following him into the elevator would be another way to get passed the guards without much interference. The guards wouldn't dare question the date of an officer who could have that soldier transferred to the Africa Korps.<br/>3) Disguising yourself as a high officer could yield a few quick questions by the guards but not much else. As long as the papers look genuine the guards will let you pass.<br/>4)<em>Cover</em>- you have perfected and trained for the Nazi role you now play, your papers are in order and notarized, the guards will not trouble you besides a few simple questions to identify you.<br/><strong><em><br/>Player Input:</em></strong><br/><strong><br/>**Before we start this mission I would like to hear your suggestions about other ways you would infiltrate the party and what not**</strong>
