A group of radicals have taken over a high rise in Northern Island and hidden a nuclear device somewhere inside.

Objective: Find way into skyscraper across from this building.

Cross this bridge quickly and reach the adjacent skyscraper.

Follow your fellow SAS around the top of this building. You’ll spot the adjacent skyscraper to the right. Cross the bridge connecting the two buildings. Shoot the hostiles in the windows as you move toward the skyscraper. Drop into the open hole at the end to enter the GenaServ building. Open the double doors.

Objective: Locate radio-controlled bombs.

Move through the open office to the left. Battle the radicals inside. Use the desks as cover against their fire. There’s also a medkit in the room if you have wounds that need mending. Search the cubicles for ammo and a smoke grenade. Strafe carefully to the right around the next corner. Shoot the radicals in view. Search these office cubicles for health, ammo, and a shotgun.

The office cubicles are not unlike a maze. Watch your step!

Cross the office to the open door on the far left side of the room. You’ve entered a maze-like set of cubicles. Lure enemies around corners and into your line of fire. Move carefully around each corner to get the first shot on each enemy. Investigate each cubicle and find a flashbang and some ammo. At the center of the offices you’ll find an HE grenade. A radical carrying a rocket launcher also patrols near this area. Eliminate him then cross toward the door marked "Main Office".

Search the room to the left of the double doors to find health and ammo. Beware of an enemy attempting to ambush you from the right. Grab the armor in the alcove. Move carefully around the left side. A large group of hostiles patrols this area. Lure them toward your position. Beware of a sniper waiting for you around the right corner. Search the small office ahead for more ammo. Go to the right where the sniper stood.

The radio-controlled bombs are hidden inside one of the cubicles.

Encounter additional enemies and snipers ahead. Eliminate them. Continue to search cubicles for ammo and health. Look for a cubicle on the right side. It contains a dead scientist and the radio-controlled bombs. Switch to your radio and use it.

Objective: Proceed to elevators.

The enemies arrive from the opposite direction—the route from which you entered the area. Exit the cubicle and strafe around facing left to combat the incoming radicals. Take the first left and move under the GenaServ sign through the open double doors. Before entering the elevator to the left, search the end of the hall for health, ammo, and armor. Use the elevator.

Objective: Proceed to the 3rd floor and disable the building security.

You’ll use your newly acquired radio-controlled bombs to disable the building’s security.

The elevator automatically descends to the 3rd floor. Shoot the radicals quickly when the doors open. Move to the silver double doors and open. Eliminate the radicals on the other side. Pick up the sniper rifle off the ground. Approach the security console and plant a radio-controlled bomb. Retreat outside the room and detonate the explosive.

Objective: Disable gun emplacements with RC bombs.

Move through the security station to the open passage on its opposite side. Eliminate the guards here and those hiding behind crates around the corner. The gun emplacements are just ahead to the left. Place the first RC bomb and detonate. Switch to a gun and eliminate a hidden guard around a crate to the right. Blast apart the second gun emplacement with an RC bomb and receive a new objective.

Objective: Proceed to elevators. Get to top of building and recover nuke.

The elevator you used is closed now. Cross the office and shoot the guards through the door on the left. Find the open elevator through the open passage on the left. Grab the health and armor before moving inside. The elevator stops between the 39th and 40th floor.

Objective: Exit elevator and proceed to the roof.

Enemies blast through the top of the elevator door so be ready. Another guard opens the hatch on the elevator’s roof and waits for you to appear into view. Exit the elevator through the hatch. An adjacent elevator lowers. Its door opens; shoot the radicals waiting there. Cross over the adjacent elevator’s roof and climb the ladder. Move over the open door drop down. Fall onto the edge of the open door and move onto the 40th floor. Grab the nearby health and armor.

Return up the ladder inside the elevator shaft. Cross the narrow ledge to the next ladder on the far left. Face the health packs and jump to those ledges. Jump up to the top and find a grate. Break it and crawl through the vent shaft. The ceiling breaks above you. Shoot the guards there and leap out onto the 43rd floor.

Don’t let those posters distract you--there’s a bunch of health and ammo nearby!

One of the elevators moves up and down. Jump on its roof then drop off to the adjacent ledge where the ladder stands. Climb up the ladder. Spot the nearby ammo and take the detour if necessary. Move from the top of the ladder onto the 46th floor.

Move around to the elevator on the right. Shoot the guard behind the door. Use the door to open it slightly. Walk out onto the ledge and follow it to the ladder. Climb the ladder and enter the door marked "Authorized Personnel Only". Shoot the radicals around the corner and collect the health and ammo near the posters. Go through the door at the far end and climb the ladder behind you. At the top, cross the wooden planks to the far side until you’re over the open door to the left. Drop down inside this area. You’re now on the 50th floor.

Shoot the enemies to the left. Walk around the corner and find ammo, health, and armor. A new objective also appears.
