Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory Hints

Where can I find Lacerda's bill of lading for his arms shipments?

  • 1 of 9: Redding reminds you to do this right after you activate the pumps to clear out the flooded compartments, so apparently the bill of lading is now accessible.
  • 2 of 9: If you look around near the pump equipment, you'll find a door that leads to a narrow ship's corridor.
  • 3 of 9: TIP: Before you leave, hide the technician's body in a dark corner. You'll be glad you did later.
  • 4 of 9: Go along the corridor until you find a sliding door with a medkit on the wall next to it. (If you miss it, Grimsdottir will call you and tell you.)
  • 5 of 9: Past the door is another large cargo room stacked with huge crates. Start searching for the one with the bill of lading.
  • 6 of 9: If you turn off night vision and look around, you'll see that one large crate at floor level has a piece of paper stuck to it, but it's apparently not what you want.
  • 7 of 9: Try shimmying up onto some crates to see if that gets you anywhere.
  • 8 of 9: Climb up as high as you can and search around until you find the crate that you can read the bill of lading off of.
  • 9 of 9: NOTE: After you leave the cargo room and start heading down the corridor again, two guards will appear ahead of you and walk down toward the pump room. Duck into a handy dark alcove and remain motionless (or find the open vent cover leading to an under-the-walkway crawlspace) in order to escape detection. If you hid the bodies in the pump room well, it's okay to just let these two guys pass you while you continue onwards to the engine room.
