Houndfield and Let's Waltz!

Snipers' Alley at the Houndfield Electrical Station, then the Houndfield sweep (both windmills, the anomaly, the quarantine and the hospital airdrop), the Survivor quests in Trinity and Horseshoe, the Bing Bang Boom! skills, and Let's Waltz!, the one-way road out of Old Villedor.

This stretch starts on the Quarry End rooftop where Revolution ends, with Snipers' Alley, and ends with Let's Waltz!, which leaves Old Villedor through a sealed road tunnel. In between is the last big sweep of the first map: Houndfield, the western district around Saint Joseph Hospital, with the 'Cherry' and 'Birch' windmills, a GRE anomaly, a GRE quarantine building and the airdrop on the hospital roof; then the Survivor side quests the Horseshoe Water Tower opened in Trinity and Horseshoe, and the three skills for Bing Bang Boom!. You have the GRE key, lockpicks and the Binoculars, but not the Paraglider or the Grappling Hook: anything that needs them, and the two Old Villedor metro stations, which open only after Let's Waltz!, is left for a later return by fast travel. So is the Houndfield Electrical Station: you climb it in Snipers' Alley, but stations can be restored only from A Place to Call Home on, so it and the district quests it opens come on that return. GRE anomalies appear only at night; a bed at a windmill or safe zone skips to it.

Location
Old Villedor · Houndfield – From Hakon's rooftop, drop down and head into southern Houndfield to the tall Houndfield Electrical Station by the water, moving between cover. Skip the front gate (it goes up in flames): go round its left side over the yellow containers, up the blue truck and the broken sign, across the roof and over the zipline to the main building, then up its ladder. When the sniper kicks the ladder away, go through the open door, climb the scaffolding and the outside walkways, jump from the hanging cage to the last door, and report to Hakon when the scene ends.
Requires
Summary
The side quest that starts at once when you help Hakon, and on this route also the sniper part of Let's Waltz!. The run's later choices and endings depend on finishing it.

About this guide

Two runs on any difficulty. Run 1 plays the whole story with every collectible, gives all seven facilities to the Survivors and ends with one ending; a save backup made outside the game at the last door before the finale lets you watch a second ending by replaying only the last two quests, not the whole game. After the credits the city stays open for cleanup and Bloody Ties. Run 2 is New Game+ on the other faction's path for the third ending. The game has no manual saves, so the backup steps say how to copy your save on each platform; without them, each extra ending needs another New Game+ run. Two trophies need other players.
