A Nuclear Winter 2 – Freedom Force Mission

Yeah, though you walk through the shadow of the Valley of Death, many ice beams will hit you in the face. This level must be approached slowly and methodically; attempt to rush through the level and you will likely end up with hero-sicles. El Diablo and Minuteman can easily hop from ledge to ledge, so you can either clear out one side at a time, or move slowly through the valley and try to take on the enemies group by group. This level introduces Frost Warriors, armed with a frost beam that does fairly wicked damage. Again, El Diablo is well used as a hovering sniper, and his flight makes him rather useful as a scout. Melee brawls are a death sentence in this level, so Mentor should rely on mental support while Minuteman tosses the various explosive barrels on hand.

Once you make it through the valley, you must defeat the enemies guarding the soon to be introduced Man-Bot. When they are defeated, you can thaw Man-Bot to end the level, unless of course you choose to clear the level of enemies first. Don’t worry, he’s frozen, he won’t know you left him there a little while longer.
