Briefing: Once you reach the chateau, you will have to act quickly. The first challenge is to locate the list. The greater challenge will be to deliver it to Command. Needless to say, subtlety is advisable. The odds against you are already overwhelming enough without drawing undue attention to yourself. Objectives: Infiltrate the chateau. Locate the secret entrance to the underground base. Locate the baroness' secret lair. Recover the list of names. The Indomitable Cate Archer, Scene 1 Objective: Infiltrate the chateau. Walk over the beam ahead and follow the rooms to the staircase down. Search the area for possible intelligence items. Walk past the fireplace to the open door on the left. Kill the guards ahead and walk around the gondola machinery to the door. Proceed upstairs and open the door at the top. More guards lurk here; terminate them, then enter the left office and ascend the ladder. Search the area for possible intelligence items. Open the hatch at the top and enter the crawlspace. Stay on the roof and spot the opening to the right. Look around for possible intelligence items before moving onward. Shoot or open the padlock and exit. Enter the room to the right and kill the mechanic. Use the lever on the powerbox and resume your course in the hallway.
The Indomitable Cate Archer, Scene 2 Objective: Kick Armstrong's arse. Armstrong tosses you into a makeshift jail. After a long cutscene with the baroness, you can convince Armstrong to let you out and have a fist fight for your freedom. If you manage to beat him, he'll let you go. But first, you must rile him into a fight. Select dialogue choices that incite him to battle (call him a girl, that he wears a skirt, and so on) and prepare for the fight. Defeating Armstrong requires hit-and-run techniques. Approach him, press the button to throw a punch, and retreat. Watch Armstrong's arm movements closely and move Cate backward when he's about to punch. Don't move too far back from Armstrong, though; he'll toss a grenade that causes significant armor damage. Keep bobbing and weaving and avoid close contact when Armstrong swings. Armstrong's health bar is shown at the top of the screen. Reduce his health to zero to defeat Armstrong and win your freedom.
You must work quickly. There's a guard to your left - and he's pulling out a gun. Move forward toward the desk and grab your equipment. You'll pull out your pistol. Turn toward the guard in the room and take him out with a quick head shot. Scamper over to the right-hand wall (from the entrance) and prepare to shoot additional guards that arrive from the doorway on the back right area of the room. Peek around the wall and shoot them in the chest and arm until both are dead. Make sure you picked up all the items and exit the room through the gate. Search the crates in the next area for intelligence items. Go down the ladder and around toward the fence by the pool. Spot the hole in the fence; crouch and crawl underneath the hole and move toward the ramp. Enter the door at the top of the ramp. There's another searchlight outside, so be careful. Two guards stand to the left and additional guards can be found high on ledges. Shoot them all, retreating back inside the room for cover. Approach the locked door and use the cigarette lighter (in welder mode) to break open the lock. Enter the room to the right of the staircase and approach the woodpile in the back. Use the piece of wood sticking out to open a secret passage.
