Commandos 2 - Destination Paris 2.0 - NB3 Wings Can't Fly (By CC and Kop)

Destination Paris 2.0 (1.46 rules) The third and last mission in the Stalingrad series by CC and Kop presents a massive spike in difficulty, the previous two missions ain't got nothing on it. In fact, it's probably the hardest mission in Destination Paris mod currently, way harder than "Assault! Night Attack on Haiphong" and some other tough ones such as "Thriller I" and "Labyrinth on Water". If you think there's a harder mission, please tell me. It takes a while to try them all, there're so many. The mission does some truly nasty things that probably no other mission does: More than half of the soldiers on the map are competing to become the sentinel of the year, ready to set off the alarm upon noticing anything. Most of the soldiers have very long view distance, almost nullifying the night mode advantage. Some soldiers have very long timers on action, just waiting to ruin your day by coming to a place full of dead bodies. There's a sniper who's invisible on the outside, so it's tricky to even get his field of view, and of course he sets off the alarm on seeing anything. The mission gives no clues about key progression items (diving gear, uniforms), one has to study the map in debug to at least have an idea on how to progress. The alarm triggers if you throw a smoke grenade in the wrong places, or drive the truck in the wrong places (different thing than alerting the soldiers by driving near them). The worst offender of all - when the timer starts, you'd think the mission would fail when it runs out, but in fact it may fail within first 2 minutes from the timer start, and the game won't even warn you that you can't complete the mission anymore. A certain lieutenant quietly goes out of a building to throw away a key item, and you better be there in time to stop him. Nevertheless, it's a fantastic and elaborate mission, extremely difficult but not impossible once one has figured out a working solution. The alarm event itself is spectacular - the whole stage gets set in motion, a truck with more soldiers and a Tiger arrive. Somewhat disappointingly, it's possible to complete all the tasks without ever triggering this, so i trigger it on purpose in the end just to show how much work went into this event.
