Battlefield 1 War Story #2: Friends in High Places
Collectible: Field Manuals
The final two missions in this story, Fall From Grace and Forte et fidele, each have codex entries for collecting all Field Manuals. Check out our guide here for all of the Field Manual locations.
Test Flight
To Be Ace – Finish the target practice in Test Flight.
Unmissable with the story.
Dicta Boelcke – Don’t lose the chase trail.
During the training sequence, there’ll be a segment where you need to follow another plane. Simply stick behind him and keep the chase meter up. If you fail, simply reload the checkpoint and try again.
Total War
Strategic Bombing – Destroy the fort in Total War.
Unmissable with the story.
Bloody April 1917 – Have at least four bombers survive a bombing run in Total War.
Like other codex entries, this one is easier if you lower the difficulty. During the section where you’re escorting the bombers, you’ll need to keep at least four of the five survive,. Just focus on taking down enemy fighters when they appear, and then destroying the AA guns in the village.
Fall From Grace
No Man’s Land – Reach No Man’s Land undetected.
This one shouldn’t be too bad, as long as you go slow and watch for enemies. Only kill enemies with melee kills, and just make sure their alert meter doesn’t turn into the red. If it starts to fill, hide and wait for it to go back down.
Booby Traps – Use tripwire bombs to kill 2 enemies in Fall From Grace.
If you follow the road from the start of this mission, you’ll find a weapon box with tripwire bombs. Simply place the bombs near anywhere that you see enemies, alert them, and then lure them into the bomb. You may need to play the mission twice to complete both codex entries.
Forte et Fidele
Gotha Raids on London – Take down the bombers in Forte et fidele.
Unmissable with the story
Airborne Cannons – Destroy 10 aircraft within 30 seconds using the stationary weapon in Forte et fidele.
This one is probably the trickiest of this war story. Once you land on the blimp and take over the AA gun, you’ll need to shoot down ten enemy planes in 30 seconds. You might need to practice a few times to nail this codex. The aircraft appear in this order; straight ahead, upper right, middle right, then the same spot again.
Dawn of Dogfights – Complete Friends in High Places
Unmissable after completing the War Story.
