Learn effective strategies for clearing mines and surviving ambushes in Fallout Tactics. Discover how to use burst fire, dynamite, and cover to overcome enemy threats.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Mine Disposal: Lay prone and use burst fire attacks. Lining up your squad side-by-side and advancing in formation using the 'F' key before clicking can be effective. Dynamite can also be placed beside mines to detonate them.
  2. 2
    Inactive Mine: Mines without a red ring are inactive and can be picked up for later use or sale.
  3. 3
    Ambush Area: Return to the gate and go around the building with civilians. Move slowly and watch for mines. You are entering an ambush zone with enemies in the building to the south and the alley to the north. Use the building on the west for cover. Be aware of grenadiers on the northeast side of the intersection.
  4. 4
    Librarian's Glasses: Locate the chest in the room with snipers. This room also contains a large radiation bath in the back. The chest holds the librarian's glasses.
  5. 5
    Return Glasses: Return the librarian's glasses to him. If you haven't traded with him before, he will give you a book for free. If you have already traded, you will simply complete the objective. To return the glasses, you must use the barter option.
Tips
  • Laying on the ground generally puts you on the same level as mines, improving results when using burst fire.
  • You can line your squad up one beside each other and advance by using the 'F' key before a mouse click.
  • Dynamite can be placed beside mines to detonate them; placing it directly on top is usually not necessary.
  • Use the building on the west side of the intersection for cover during the ambush.
  • Be cautious of grenadiers positioned on the northeast side of the intersection.
  • To return the librarian's glasses, ensure you use the barter function.
