PC Games: Return to Castle Wolfenstein: FAQ / Walkthrough

Soldiers are the weakest enemies that B.J. will find throughout the game. They usually come equipped with either the MP40 sub-machine gun or Mauser rifle. They are generally quite vulnerable and a well-placed headshot can take them down immediately.

Similar to the soldier except that they are only equipped with a Luger. Don't let their weapon become a distraction though because their marksmanship should not be underestimated. A headshot will bring them down quickly as well.

Despite their soft-looking appearance, these leather clad female soldiers from the SS Paranormal Division are actually very ruthless and cold-blooded killers. They would not hesitate to kill B.J. so take them out as soon as possible. They usually work in teams and are usually lethal with the silent Sten sub-machine gun aside from being a very agile killing machine. Always try to shoot their head to bring them down quickly.

The SS Black Guards are Himmler's personal bodyguards and they are armed with the deadly FG42 paratroop rifle. The best thing to do is to go for headshot all the time to take them out quickly since they have a very good marksmanship similar to the Elite Guards.

As the name suggests, venom soldiers are either equipped with venom gun or flamethrower. These soldiers are very dangerous and deadly due to the fact that they wear full body armor and helmet. They can receive quite a lot of damage before going down so be exercise more caution when B.J. meet one or more of them in the field.

Workers and engineers are generally harmless aside from their Lugers that they always carry. They also would not hesitate to shoot so don't ignore them although their accuracy are just average. Try to take care of them lastly while focusing on other more imposing enemies that might be present in the vicinity at the same time.

These Nazi scientists spend most of their time researching biological and robotic engineering in their laboratories. Similar to the workers and engineers, they are only armed with a Luger which shouldn't pose too much of a problem. They will however, call out for guards whenever possible perhaps because of their lack of combat training which make them realized that they are not a worthy opponent.

The SS Paranormal Division research into the occult has resulted in the resurrection of these zombies. They are expectedly slow but don't be deceived by their speed. They can emit phantom skulls which will chase B.J. even around corners so be careful. The most effective way to kill them is to aim the Sten at their heads to blow them apart quickly but be careful of overheating so fire in short bursts only.

Similar to their standard counterpart, zombie knights are equipped with a sword and a shield. The shield can be used to reflect gunfire so take notice of this when fighting them. There are two effective methods to kill them: the first is to try to blow their unprotected legs apart with gunfire or grenades while the second method will be to let them get close first. They will lower down their shield to swing at B.J. so use this chance to empty the Sten towards their head and they will collapse to the ground immediately.

This is one of the most dangerous foes that B.J. will meet along his adventure. Fire zombies are surrounded by fire and they can spew a fountain of fire that can travel very far. When facing one of these, always keep a good distance between B.J. and the zombie while unloading the Sten at its head to take it down quickly. An occasional one or two grenade at their feet will help to accomplish this task even faster.

Lopers are the result of Nazi scientists' research into combining robotic and biological engineering. They attack with their claws as well as lightning bolts that are emitted from the half-spherical plate lodged underneath their waist since they don't have any legs. Their ability to leap across considerable distance both vertically and horizontally proves to be fatal to anyone unlucky enough to be around. Exercise extreme caution when facing them. Although they would appear by themselves most of the time, never underestimate their power.

Similar to the lopers, these Uber-Soldat prototypes are powered by the tesla technology and are also the result of the combination between robotic and biological engineering. They are equipped with either the devastating venom gun or panzerfaust which can rip B.J to shreds in no time. The fact that they are covered with full metal body armor doesn't make fighting them any easier as well. The only way to kill them successfully will be to take advantage of their speed since they are very slow. Always find cover whenever possible and use the environment to gain the maximum advantage; never expose B.J. to them unless to take some quick shots. Panzerfaust and venom gun are very effective in taking them out so don't hesitate.

These walking monstrosities are the improved version of the prototypes. They are more heavily armored and also come equipped with a tesla gun aside from the panzerfaust and the venom gun. Their tesla gun can reach a considerable distance so never let B.J. expose himself UNLESS attempting to shoot or running from cover to cover. They can take quite a lot of punishment before going down so exercise EXTREME caution when facing one of them. Similar to the prototypes, panzerfaust and venom gun works best against them.
