Sniper Elite: Resistance - End Of The Line Mission Walkthrough

The stakes have never been higher in Sniper Elite: Resistance’s final full mission, End of the Line. It’s up to you to stop the heavily armored Zugwerfer trains before they can derail the Allied invasion. These rolling war machines, packed with deadly payloads, won’t go down easy, and the battlefield is littered with anti-air defenses, fortified positions, and one particularly target who'll go down with a bang.

Sniper Elite: Resistance - Every Workbench Location

Look after your gun in Sniper Elite: Resistance, and your gun will look after you.

If you want to sabotage the enemy’s plans and make it out alive, you’ll need strategy, precision, and a well-placed Satchel charge (or three). This walkthrough will guide you through every step — neutralizing defenses, trapping the Zugwerfers, and ensuring Kruger never makes his escape. Let’s get to work.

Neutralize The Flak Batteries

To begin, you'll want to start with the optional objective for this mission, neutralizing the Flak batteries that protect the area. Head south from your starting point and enter the trenches on the blue-marked objective.

The first Flak battery is positioned on the west side within the trenches, and you’ll need a Satchel charge to destroy it. Fortunately, Satchel charges can be found scattered within the trenches. Detonate and explode it to complete the first half of this mission.

Then, head towards the eastern side, still within the trenches. The second Flak battery is located here on the east side. It'll require the same approach. Destroy it using another Satchel charge. Once both are destroyed, you'll have completed this optional objective. Enemy air defenses are weakened, paving the way for the next phase.

Trap The Eastern Zugwerfer

Next, make your way north to trap the eastern Zugwerfer. Find an exit from the trench area by sticking to the wall. Once you reach higher ground, use the vantage point to eliminate snipers and other enemies surveying the area.

Although this is the final listed objective, we recommend tackling it at this point to better align with the mission’s flow.

Then, descend towards the eastern objective. Upon arrival, your objective will update, instructing you to sabotage the Roundhouse turntable. This turntable is located in a circular sub-floor area in the middle of the marked objective. If you don’t already have a Satchel charge, you’ll find one just east of the turntable on a yellow crate.

Place the charge and detonate it to render the eastern Zugwerfer useless. This completes the objective.

Kill List: Hermann Gottshalk

With the eastern Zugwerfer taken care of, shift your focus to the Kill List target, Hermann Gottshalk.

To find him, head to the northern end of the objective marker and enter the concrete tunnels. Gottshalk will be positioned outside on the northern side of the area. His death challenge requires precise timing — wait for him to pass by a large maroon cylinder marked with a red indicator, then shoot the tank to trigger a gas explosion that eliminates him instantly.

You can otherwise simply shoot him. Doing the Kill Challenge, however, will unlock a special weapon.

Trap The Central Zugwerfer

Moving on, proceed south to trap the central Zugwerfer. The key to disabling this train lies within the objective building. Inside, locate the middle cylindrical room, where you’ll find a control box needed to sabotage the doors. However, a crowbar is required to complete the task. You’ll find one nearby, on the opposite side of the circular room. Use it to jam the mechanism, ensuring the Zugwerfer is rendered inoperable.

Trap The Western Zugwerfer

Now, make your way west to trap the final Zugwerfer.

At the far northwest end, you'll find a starting location. Light the campfire to mark this area as an available starting location for future playthroughs.

To complete the sabotage, locate a wheel on the western side of the marked area. It sits beneath a tall metal awning, providing some cover, and is positioned just beyond the railway tracks. As you approach, be mindful of nearby patrols and potential enemy snipers stationed in elevated positions. Here, you’ll simply need to turn the wheel to disrupt the fuel supply. Then, take a shot at the fuel container, blowing it up and effectively neutralizing the last of the armored Zugwerfer trains. You'll have completed this objective.

Exflitrate And Kill Kruger

With all objectives completed, it’s time to exfiltrate. There are three available extraction zones, but if you finish at the western Zugwerfer objective, the nearest exfiltration point is conveniently close. Climb the ladder and prepare for a scripted sequence. Instead of a standard exit, you must place a transmitter, triggering a cutscene that transitions directly into the final campaign mission: eliminating Kruger before he escapes.

To successfully kill Kruger, head to the eastern outlook position. He will attempt to flee on a motorcycle, and you must act quickly. Line up your shot and take him out before he escapes, or the mission will fail. Precision and speed are critical here. Eliminate him swiftly to complete the mission and complete the campaign. Great work!
