Exit the corridor and go down the stairs on the left - Old Town - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Exit the corridor and go down the stairs on the left. Turn right and remove the sofa blocking the way. Open the blocked door on the left side. Go through narrow alleys until you reach a courtyard on the left with a burning tree in the middle. Here you'll encounter a first group of enemies (including Wretches which will try to shorten the distance to you). Go down the first stairs and cover behind a low wall, where you have a clear view of enemies below.

1 - Old Town - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and WalkthroughAfter clearing the area, go down - Old Town - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After clearing the area, go down. In the alley on the left you'll find some ammo. When you move forwards, you'll notice the symbol of first declassified mission on the wall to the right. In this stage of the game Wretches will be replaces with their dark version, which explodes after death. When one of them dies close to you, use evade to avoid damages.

Once you find a convoy, go to the building on the left - Old Town - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Once you find a convoy, go to the building on the left. Clear it out of enemies and go to the entrance on the left. Repeal attacking enemies at this spot, while your companions take care of the other side (AI should manage this). When the left side of the area is under control, focus on enemies behind the wall on the other side of the courtyard.

Before you move to the designated target, go to the end of the street and get behind the fence of the last house on the right - Old Town - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Before you move to the designated target, go to the end of the street and get behind the fence of the last house on the right. There is a COG tag in the right corner, next to the trash.

Pick up the sniper rifle which you can find at the body and a symbol of declassified mission - Riverwalk District - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Pick up the sniper rifle which you can find at the body and a symbol of declassified mission. Before accepting it, replenish your ammo at the end of the corridor, right from the body. After accepting declassified mission you'll have three and half minutes to clear the passage to the museum. Once you start it, keep running towards your target.

Cross the bridge to the left side and hide behind first cover - Riverwalk District - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Cross the bridge to the left side and hide behind first cover. Enemies will be coming down in three waves. At the end of each one you'll have to kill Boomer or an opponent carrying Gatling gun. If you decide to go up the stairs before dealing with the third wave, enemies will stop appearing and you'll be able to move further. It is important to have at least 1:50 minute in order to clear the next area and achieving at least one and half star. In order to do this try to kill enemies with headshots using the sniper rifle and kill last of them as well as close opponents with melee attack. In this stage much depends on luck and type of enemies which will appear.

1 - Riverwalk District - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and WalkthroughOnce you get further, quickly run up the stairs on the right, because you'll find yourself under the turret fire - Riverwalk District - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Once you get further, quickly run up the stairs on the right, because you'll find yourself under the turret fire. If you have any grenades, toss them to the square where the turret is located. After clearing the area use the mentioned turret to eliminate enemies coming out from the hole and the alley on the right. At the end Tickers and Boomer will appear through the door behind the turret. Once you kill them quickly run towards the door before the time runs out.

If you do not have a time limit then before ending this stage go down the stairs to the statue in lower part of this area and turn right to the alley - Riverwalk District - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

If you do not have a time limit then before ending this stage go down the stairs to the statue in lower part of this area and turn right to the alley. At its end there is a COG tag on the right side.

After destroying the door go right through the corridor - Museum Gardens - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After destroying the door go right through the corridor. You'll find a symbol of declassified mission on the wall there. After accepting the mission, your arsenal will be limited to hammerbursts, sawed-off shotguns and one-shots. After destroying another door, go to the alley on the right. At its end you'll find next COG tag.

Return to the main street and head to the museum entrance - Museum Gardens - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Return to the main street and head to the museum entrance. Here you'll come across healing Kantus. You should deal with this opponent at once, because he can revive dead companions. Since the mission conditions force you to use short range weapons, you have to come closer to enemies.

Clear the way to the stairs top, often using covers - Museum Gardens - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Clear the way to the stairs top, often using covers. Enemies at the top have one-shots, so be careful. Once you get in front of the entrance and clear the area, pick up the one-shot leaned against column and prepare to repeal enemies attacking you from the passage you came here. First kill Boomers and Kantuses.

1 - Great Hall - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and WalkthroughAfter the cut-scene you'll see two sentinels in front of you - Great Hall - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After the cut-scene you'll see two sentinels in front of you. Put them on the left and the right side, somewhere in the middle of the stairs. There are many ammo crates scattered all around, as well as grenades - pick them up (you can use them on walls as mines). Your time is limited, so hurry with preparations before the attack begins.

2 - Great Hall - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and WalkthroughThere is a symbol of declassified mission on the wall - Great Hall - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There is a symbol of declassified mission on the wall. If you activate it, you'll have to face also Nemacysts, which explode when get close to you. You can try to shoot them down before they come closer or jump aside just before explosion.

When the attack begins, I recommend focusing on defending the right wing, which is attacked with by more enemies - Great Hall - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

When the attack begins, I recommend focusing on defending the right wing, which is attacked with by more enemies. Keep monitoring sentinels because they might run out of ammo (a proper symbol appears over them - you have to go there and replenish sentinel's ammo). After repelling the first wave you'll have some time to replenish your ammo. The next attack will be even stronger. Prepare for a large group of Boomers coming from the left side. Stay on the instant move, avoiding/destroying Nemacysts. Pay also attention if any of opponents drops Gatling gun, which can be very helpful in repelling the attack.

After defeating the second wave you'll be able to go to the next area - Great Hall - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After defeating the second wave you'll be able to go to the next area. But before you do this, jump over the small wall surrounding the statue in the lower part of the hall. In front of the statue you'll find another COG tag.

There is a declassified mission symbol on the left wall - Kaskur Wing - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There is a declassified mission symbol on the left wall. After activating it Cyclops Drones will be wielding Lancers. After opening the door, quickly take cover. On the other side of this room you can notice the turret. You can try to get it from the right side, killing enemies on your way or use the shield, which can be found right from the entrance to the room. Personally I recommend the first option.

When you get to the turret, use it to finish enemy remaining - Kaskur Wing - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

When you get to the turret, use it to finish enemy remaining. The holes will appear on the left and the right side - new enemies will appear there. You can close them by tossing a grenade inside. Once the room is cleared, Boomer will come out from the right door. Before you move on after killing him, collect grenades and ammo from side rooms.

You'll find COG tag between stairs leading to the turret and the next stage - Kaskur Wing - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

You'll find COG tag between stairs leading to the turret and the next stage.

Go down the stairs - East Wing - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go down the stairs. There are two sentinels in front of you. Put one of them at the very left side and the one in front of the glowing armor in a glass case, which you have to defend after activating declassified mission. The third sentinel can be found at the farther column on the left - put it on the balcony to the right, so it can cover with fire the longs passage straight ahead. There is also grenade launcher at the entrance, which can be very useful.

The entire attack is lead through the entrance on the other side of the room, so you could put there some grenades on the wall - East Wing - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

The entire attack is lead through the entrance on the other side of the room, so you could put there some grenades on the wall. Go back to the armor, which you have to defend. Keep monitoring if sentinels have enough ammo. If Tickers join the attack, move away from the armor so the explosion won't damage it. Check the farther part of the room, where you can come across Kantuses reviving their allies.

After a short break, the second wave will also attack you through the front door - East Wing - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After a short break, the second wave will also attack you through the front door. You can again put some grenades there as mines. You can also try to get closer to the entrance and focus fire of several enemies on you. After that, use the grenade or grenade launcher to get rid of them at once. If Tickers show up, try not to stay in one place too long.

After clearing the hall, go right from the exit of this room - East Wing - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After clearing the hall, go right from the exit of this room. You'll find there another COG tag.

Go down the stairs - Archives - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go down the stairs. You'll see declassified mission symbol on the wall. You need to find and destroy 10 serapede eggs. Several eggs are scattered randomly but most of them is always located at the same place. First one can be found at the end of the stairs. The second one is located right from the entrance to the small room (in front of the stairs), gull of Retro Lancers.

Once you reach the end of the corridor, on the right side you'll encounter first Serapede - Archives - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Once you reach the end of the corridor, on the right side you'll encounter first Serapede. His only weak point is his back part, glowing green. Retreat, so the insect focuses on your companion and when he turns back to you, start shooting at his vulnerable point. Repeat this until the enemy is dead.

1 - Archives - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and WalkthroughNow look inside the large room on the right - Archives - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Now look inside the large room on the right. You'll find there several eggs. When searching them pay particular attention to the ceiling and a hole in the floor. Other eggs can be found in a small room on the left and in a corridor leading to the next area. Before you go there, make sure that all eggs are destroyed.

In the large archive room you'll be attacked by more Serapedes, Tickers and Wretches - Archives - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

In the large archive room you'll be attacked by more Serapedes, Tickers and Wretches. There are some grenades in the center of the room - pick them up. A hole will appear in the right corner - toss the grenade to close it. Enemies with flamethrowers will come up running from behind the destroyed wall. Shoot the fuel canisters on their back to quickly eliminate them. Few enemies will appear also on the balcony to the right.

Approach the hole in the wall and go to the left corner - you'll find a COG tag there - Archives - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Approach the hole in the wall and go to the left corner - you'll find a COG tag there. Now go through the mentioned hole in order to get to the passage leading to the next stage.

There is a declassified mission symbol on the right wall - Vaults - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There is a declassified mission symbol on the right wall. After accepting it, the visibility gets reduced and when you get to the next room you'll be attacked by Therons with cleavers. Try to stay in the room with a declassified mission symbol and wait there for enemies. It is best to use against them any Shotgun or Grenade Launcher. Jump aside when you see them preparing to attack you. Prepare also to repeal several Boomers. After getting deeper inside the room, you'll be attacked by next wave. In the center part of the room, on the left, there is a Gatling gun next to the crate and further you'll find an ammo crate. Back off behind any cover and wait there for enemies.

There is another COG Tag on the right side of the room, between a large hole in the floor and the wall - Vaults - Museum Of Military Glory - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There is another COG Tag on the right side of the room, between a large hole in the floor and the wall. Go up the stairs and turn into the right corridor to end the mission.

Go to the door and get down the stairs on the left - Enfield Bridge - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go to the door and get down the stairs on the left. At the very bottom you'll find a declassified mission symbol on the left passage wall. If you accept it, ammo will be reduced, you'll have no access to Longshots and more Reavers will appear. Get to the bridge and go to its left or right side. Then take cover. Because your ammo is limited, wait for enemies and try to kill them in a melee fight. Make sure to collect all ammo from dead bodies and go a bit further.

Hide under one of domes on the left or the right side and shoot at first Reaver, which will land on the bridge - Enfield Bridge - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Hide under one of domes on the left or the right side and shoot at first Reaver, which will land on the bridge. There is one more Reaver flying over the bridge, who shoots a projectile at you from time to time - make sure to take cover then. Wait until the rider and the creature itself fires an explosive arrow/projectile. At this point you have some time to shoot at them. The Reaver's weak point is orange spot on his abdomen.

When you get closer to the center part of the bridge, another Reaver will appear - Enfield Bridge - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

When you get closer to the center part of the bridge, another Reaver will appear. Return under the previous dome and keep shooting at the creature, waiting for more enemies. When you run out of ammo, you can take a risk and run through the center part of the bridge, searching for supplies (make sure that there is no enemy at the turret). With a bit of luck it can happen that your companions will finish the creature.

1 - Enfield Bridge - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and WalkthroughAfter killing the beast, enemy reinforcements will appear on the right part of the bridge - try to kill opponents in a melee fight - Enfield Bridge - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After killing the beast, enemy reinforcements will appear on the right part of the bridge - try to kill opponents in a melee fight. Before you move any further, make sure that you've collected all ammo. On the other side of the bridge you'll find another turret (next to the vehicle), which should be your primary target. When more Reavers land, cover under the dome you've been passing by and kill beasts from this spot. You can also back off even further. In short breaks between fights try to collect ammo if you are running out of it, watching out for the Reaver flying over the bridge. After clearing the area you can move on.

But before you continue, return to the center part of the bridge, with many statues - Enfield Bridge - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

But before you continue, return to the center part of the bridge, with many statues. Move to the spot, where the bridge is destroyed. On the left side you'll find COG tag.

Go through the door on the left - Courtyard - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go through the door on the left. When you get to the small armory, you'll find a declassified mission symbol on the right wall, near the door. Before you accept the mission, make sure that a Grenade Launcher has appeared in the locker right from the symbol (another option is Flamethrower). If not, load the last checkpoint. Pick up the Grenade Launcher and grenades and replenish Lancer ammo.

Activate declassified mission and quickly run through the door left from the symbol - Courtyard - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Activate declassified mission and quickly run through the door left from the symbol. Run to the opposite side of the courtyard, where you can find One-shot. Use it to eliminate all Boomers (about 10 of them) or other large units, which can appear here. Also kill opponent operating turret on the right, in front of the entrance to the academy.

Once you clear the courtyard (you need at least 1:40 min left), a Rager will burst through the door - Courtyard - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Once you clear the courtyard (you need at least 1:40 min left), a Rager will burst through the door. Use a Grenade Launcher to kill him and run inside the academy. There are two more Ragers behind bags - kill them with Grenade Launcher, grenade or Lancer's chainsaw/bayonet. You have to inflict them a lot of damage to tear them to pieces before they can have a chance to change their form.

If you're not limited with time limit then you can go to the room left from the building entrance - Courtyard - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

If you're not limited with time limit then you can go to the room left from the building entrance. You'll find there a COG tag.

Run further through the left corridor, ignoring Tickers/Wretches you pass by - Courtyard - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Run further through the left corridor, ignoring Tickers/Wretches you pass by. Finally you'll get to the last room to be cleared. Again make sure that none of Ragers changes his form. Otherwise the fight will take longer and for that you do not have time. After killing all enemies, jump onto the platform on the left side of the room and get to the designated door before time runs out.

There is a declassified mission symbol on the right wall - R&D Labs - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There is a declassified mission symbol on the right wall. After activating it the visibility will be reduced because of toxic fumes. Switch the lever on the left side of the door to open it. You'll be attacked by a large group of enemies. When you kill first opponents, go to the left side of the room and use the stairs to go up. You'll find there a Gatling gun lying on the floor. When you move further, you'll find the lever which can be used to electrocute nearby enemies. There is also a hole on the left, which can be sealed by tossing a grenade inside. Watch out for enemies on the catwalk under the ceiling.

New enemies will appear on the other side of the room with large windows on the wall (Kantuses among others, they should be your primary targets) - R&D Labs - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

New enemies will appear on the other side of the room with large windows on the wall (Kantuses among others, they should be your primary targets). Watch out for Boomer and try to toss a grenade inside the hole to limit enemy numbers (but only if you already have earned three stars or you're close to accomplish that).

Once you clear the area, go to the right side of the room, where enemies were appearing from - R&D Labs - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Once you clear the area, go to the right side of the room, where enemies were appearing from. You'll find there a COG tag.

Go through the corridor to the panel and use it to open lab door - R&D Labs - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go through the corridor to the panel and use it to open lab door. Go down the stairs and use the Container Terminal to activate a robot. There is also a Grenade Launcher in this room, which can be useful later.

There is a declassified mission symbol on the right wall at the top of the stairs - Monroe Commons - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There is a declassified mission symbol on the right wall at the top of the stairs. After activating it, the robot will be attacked by large number of Nemacysts. After getting to the corridor, you can find Gatling gun lying in the corner, near the "Cullum Hall" plate (I recommend saving it for the courtyard which is the next area). After getting to the large hall, the robot will shield itself and enemies will appear on the right and left side of corridor you came here through. During the fight monitor also the opposite side of the hall, where several Wretches can appear.

When the robot reaches blocked door and starts unlocking it, prepare for the new fight - Monroe Commons - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

When the robot reaches blocked door and starts unlocking it, prepare for the new fight. Enemies will come out running from the left and the right side of the blocked door. After killing all enemies, Nemacysts will attack you from the other side of the hall. Try to focus their attention on you, so they do not attack the robot. Take cover behind the destroyed pillar left from the door and from this spot try to kill as many enemies as you can, before they reach the robot.

Before getting to the next location go to the room on the right from the hall exit - Monroe Commons - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Before getting to the next location go to the room on the right from the hall exit. There is a COG tag behind the desk.

After getting to the courtyard (do not forget to take Gatling gun with you, if you have any ammo left), take cover behind concrete benches on the left - Monroe Commons - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After getting to the courtyard (do not forget to take Gatling gun with you, if you have any ammo left), take cover behind concrete benches on the left. First you'll have to deal with another wave of Nemacysts. Again try to focus their attention on you, destroying them with Lancer when possible and jumping aside when they come closer. But do not jump towards the robot, so accidental explosion won't damage it.

After that a hole will appear in front of the stairs - Monroe Commons - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After that a hole will appear in front of the stairs. Quickly close it tossing a grenade inside, in order to limit number of enemies. A Boomer or another large opponent will appear in the distant part of the courtyard. If you have any Gatling gun ammo, this is the best moment to use this weapon.

After getting to the further part of the courtyard, the robot will shield itself again - Monroe Commons - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After getting to the further part of the courtyard, the robot will shield itself again. A hole will appear on the right, behind your back - toss the grenade there to close it if you have any. Then back off to any cover near the robot. Prepare to fight two larger enemies, who will appear at the right and the left side of the robot (go to the other side of the courtyard using the stairs where the robot stopped). The last stage of defending the robot is destroying Nemacysts flying over from the left and then from the right side of the robot.

There is a declassified mission symbol on the wall in front of you - Atrium - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There is a declassified mission symbol on the wall in front of you. After accepting it your only weapon will be pistol. You can pick up the sentinel located right from the statue in the middle of the room - place it at the robot when you have time. In order to accomplish stage with three stars, place the sentinel with its back towards the entrance from which enemies will be attacking you, so it will kill only enemies appearing the robot. Try to kill all enemies who get close in a melee fight, saving ammo for Boomers. There is ammo crate left from the statue - use it when needed. (Note! The fight can start with attack of Wretches or standard opponents sliding down on lines. In my case I got three stars in the second attack option).

Before leaving atrium go to the room on the right - you'll find there COG tag behind the door - Atrium - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Before leaving atrium go to the room on the right - you'll find there COG tag behind the door. While following your mission objective you'll find also a Tripwire Crossbow lying on crates, which can be useful in the next stage.

Use the Tripwire Crossbow which you found at the end of the previous stage to set up traps in passage on the left and on the right (pull it to the maximum to place it on the wall) - Crash Site - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Use the Tripwire Crossbow which you found at the end of the previous stage to set up traps in passage on the left and on the right (pull it to the maximum to place it on the wall). Then go to the point, where you can see equipment from the crashed helicopter and pick up sentinels. Place them there, as well as in the left and the right passage, so they can defend stairs leading to the robot. Before starting the fight, collect all weapons, grenades and Gatling gun (save it for larger enemies in the second wave). There is a declassified mission symbol right from the robot, near the stairs. Activate it to add Corpsers and Serapedes to enemy troops.

When the attack starts, go to the stairs on the left or on the right from the robot - Crash Site - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

When the attack starts, go to the stairs on the left or on the right from the robot. Tickers will appear first, trying to destroy your defense lines. When Serapedes appear, back off to the place with the robot and try to shoot their weak point when they are destroying your defense lines. If you can't see their weak spots, try to toss a grenade there.

Now prepare to fight Corpsers - Crash Site - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Now prepare to fight Corpsers. In this case you also have to attack them from behind, which is not shielded. After dealing some damage the opponent will dig into the ground and you'll be able to see only the legs attacking you. Run away as fast as you can. At this stage they will be probably the only remaining enemies, so use the entire area, looking for the best position to fight. From time to time make sure that sentinels do not run out of ammo. If you can lure Corpsers to rights position, sentinels will help you to kill them.

After a break a second wave will attack you - Crash Site - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After a break a second wave will attack you. Quickly replenish grenades if there are any and use the Gatling gun. Prepare for Boomers and Kantuses. Watch out also for enemies with Torque Bows. You can try to place shields on stairs (2 at minimum), left by opponents in order to slow down the attack a bit.

Go to the place where you were defending the robot - Crash Site - Halvo Bay Military Academy - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go to the place where you were defending the robot. Climb up the stairs behind it. There is a COG tag on the right.

Go to the front of the mansion and move to the right - Amador Park - Seahorse Hills - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go to the front of the mansion and move to the right. There is a declassified mission symbol on the wall in front of you. If you accept it, you'll be limited to Gnashers and Sawed-off Shotguns only. Jump through the hole in the wall on the right and go to the street. At this point you can be attacked by Bloodmounts or Maulers supported by smaller unit. Because weapons enforced by mission conditions are good for short distance, it is easier to repel attack of Bloodmounts. Try to kill beasts first and not their riders. Sawed-off shotgun is perfect for this. If you have to deal with second combination you can try to reload last checkpoint or try to get your opponents from the not shielded side.

Go up the street, staying on the right and collect ammo from crates - Amador Park - Seahorse Hills - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go up the street, staying on the right and collect ammo from crates. A hole will appear behind the blue car - close it with a grenade or keep it open to gather some star points. At the end of the street you'll find another ammo crate next to the damaged car. After clearing the area, go through the gate on the right side of the street.

Once you enter the mansion area you'll be attacked by Corpsers - Amador Park - Seahorse Hills - Gears of War: Judgment - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Once you enter the mansion area you'll be attacked by Corpsers. Try to get them from the back/side and shoot with Sawed-off Shotgun. Prepare also to fight with several Wretches. There are Kantuses on the terrace but there are no enemies to be retrieved, so you can deal with then at the end.
