Fallout 3 Hints
Covered Bridge Tips
1 of 4: Sneak-walk your way along the bridge to a small round table with a switch and a note on it.
2 of 4: Press the switch as many times as you like to call in brief artillery strikes in the large area to the west, where mercs and super mutants will run in and start fighting. If you're sneaky enough, they shouldn't see or shoot at you.
3 of 4: Keep bombarding them and letting them fight each other until there are none left. If some few stragglers keep avoiding the artillery, shoot them down with your new sniper rifle.
4 of 4: Look on the metal shelves next to the switch's table for two first aid boxes and two ammo boxes.
