Blitzkrieg is the liberation mission of Oasis sector in Red Faction: Guerrilla, where Mason must destroy the incoming EDF convoy of tanks as their main objective was to cover their withdrawal from the sector.
Briefing[]
Hugo Davies: The EDF are pulling out of Oasis. To cover their withdrawal, they're sending in the tanks. Armored units are converging on your position, and they'll destroy anything in their path. Do whatever it takes to stop them, Mason. The people and facilities here are critical to our effort. If we lose Oasis, we lose the war.
Walkthrough[]
The first EDF tank arrives from the southeast side of Oasis from the Badlands, but before destroying it, take the Combat Walker located right next to the gas station still in the same area the tank enters Oasis. Using the walker will give you an edge in firepower and cover against other EDF forces while battling with the Red Faction. However, if you can't find the walker, you will have to do it the old fashioned way using explosives, or use the Arc Welder to kill the soldier inside the tank (the goal will also be completed by not destroying the tanks).
Once the first tank is destroyed, two more tanks arrive from the north. Use the walker (or the stolen tank) to get there and destroy them. Then the EDF will launch a two-pronged attack from the north and south, so use the same tactic and the mission will be completed after destroying all the EDF tanks.
