Fallout 3 Hints
Rescue the Big Town captives from the Super Mutants.
1 of 12: Head north to the Germantown Police HQ, optionally going by the Hallowed Moors Cemetery for some extra super mutant combat.
2 of 12: When you reach the police HQ area, kill off all the super mutants around the building, then go to the building's north side.
3 of 12: There are two gaps in the north fence. One leads to the building's ground floor entrance, and the other leads to some stairs that go up to the building's top floor entrance.
4 of 12: Since the ground floor door's lock is very difficult to pick, you'll probably have to go in through the top floor door.
5 of 12: On the top floor, sneak down the hallway to its other end, then turn right and sneak into the room that's ahead on the left.
6 of 12: Sneak slowly around the wall on your right until you can deactivate a frag mine, then look on the nearby desk for a tape with the password for the lockdown computer.
7 of 12: Head east out of that room, then around to the door that leads to the ground floor.
8 of 12: Sneak down the first set of stairs so you can disarm the frag mine next to their bottom, then sneak down the next stairs to hopefully get the drop on a super mutant.
9 of 12: Past the doorway, turn left and go down the hall, then turn right and go down the next hall until you reach a door that leads back outside. Right near it is the doorway that leads to the cell area.
10 of 12: Go around and kill every super mutant and radroach in the ground floor area just to be safe, then raid the nearby armory if you can.
