How to unlock the Inside Job achievement in Homefront: The Revolution - Definitive Guide

The best Stronghold I found to easily get this achievement was the "Hinkin Factory" in the Lombard Red Zone.
First I recommended that you use the crossbow, distractions and RC car bombs.
Once you have completed your preparations, there is a small opening between the fortress and a nearby building where you can use the RC cars to eliminate as many enemies as possible.
Then use one last Hack Car to openning the gates of the Stronghold and carefully proceed with the crossbow.
If the minimap flashes red during a takedown of an enemy, that doesn't void the achievement, but getting the red detection meter filled will void the achievement.
Once you have killed every enemy in the base, deactivate the valve and you should get the achievement.

BUG NOTE: It is possible that more enemies could spawn in the stronghold while you deactivate the valve, screwing you over. It is also possible that enemies can spawn outside the base and somehow see you through walls.

I have some additional tips that might help out with this very much. There are two areas on each side that can be blown open. Also you can hack the front door with an RC car. So go do all this first, and then go capture all the points around this area. When you come back you will have a bunch of resistance buddies to distract them all while you're up to your sneaky shenanigans. Just make sure to save at the nearby safe house by accessing the weapon locker if you have to reload. ;)

Thumbs up on this solution, got it first try on this stronghold. Just a couple of tips that can make your life easier though: 1st clear out all the surrounding areas (warehouses/strikepoints) and leave just hinkin facility to be captured, that way you'll have less enemies near this area and 2nd proceed with the story until you get the mission "GOLIATH ONLINE" in which you'll have the support of the goliath the resistance was trying to fix. Once you have the goliath at your side instead of proceeding with the main mission go to hinkin stronghold and use the strategy from the video to capture it, the goliath will be an excellent distraction for the guards and wolverines inside and some of them will be killed by the tank. Now all you have to do is to carefully blow up the remaining enemies with RC explosives and once you've finished them all or at least feel confident to enter the facility and make your way to the valve without being detected do so to claim your achievement. Good luck! toast

I found a really simple method for completing this achievement. Which involved no complex routes or RC cars.

Location: Oldtown

Stronghold: Water treatment Centre

Equipment: Crossbow, Explosives

Time Taken: 2 Minutes

Method:

Run around the perimeter of the stronghold until you come to a silver fence with a gap in. Run through the gap, staying close to the walls of the stronghold and right at the back you will find a vent. Use an explosive and blow up the vent but dont go in. Once the vent is broken I return to a gunlocker to save. Then when you return the vent will still be broken and will remain so if you ever need to reload the checkpoint.

Climb through the vent and move into a storage room. There are two doors here a front and side, leave through the side door.You will quickly come to a staircase, there will be one enemy on the ground level. Use your crossbow and get the kill. You will also see two more enemies on the upper walkways. You should be able to kill both from here.

Stay crouched and slowly move up the staircase, once at the top you only need to travel a few feet and interact with the valve. Attempt to limit your kills if the enemy is off in the distance leave him. The quicker you do this and the less enemies you encounter the easier it is.

I tried on nearly every stronghold and as I was playing on hard almost gave up as enemies would quickly overwhelm the base. However by using this method you enter the base right next to the valve, its just a matter of getting up that staircase and taking out enemies.



Hope this helps.

Will add that alerts at the end when it blows up don't negate achievements. You can activate valve without killing anyone as-well.

Just captured the water treatment plant but during the cinematic of the place blowing up, someone spotted me and the alert bar filled up. I still successfully captured the base but no achievement popped, even though no one saw me, except for right at the end (when I couldn’t move during the cinematic).

This is a good location but I had some extra troubles. There were multiple heavy enemies for me, but if you use an RC car bomb from a distance and 1 hit kill them you will stay stealth. There was also a Wolverine but I just completely ignored it and it didn't set off the alarm when I turned the valve. I also had to restart a few times because of the usual BS (patrols off the road coming into the base) but eventually got lucky and it popped!

Lol I was following this guide, however I too had a heavy trooper just starring at the valve not moving. I was looking around to see how I can distact him away from the valve, and when I looked back to where he was, the trooper had vanished into thin air. Easy peazy I just walked up to the valve and turned it. Didn't have to Kill anyone. For once a glitch worked to my advantage

I followed your first paragraph verbatim. Upon returning to the water treatment plant, I had to deviate slightly. I took out one sniper and one soldier with the knife on the upper walkway. I saw a third chemical trooper up there as well, but I left him alone. That left the heavy (that some of us are running into) who just sits there staring at the valve and never moves. While crouched around a corner on the upper walkway I drove an RC Distraction down the stairs, away from me, and set it off under the heavy, but not directly under the heavy. This got him to run down the stairs. I quickly made it to the valve, and turned it to 100% before I was spotted. While it was just starting to blow up I got the achievement, and then spotted immediately after.

For me the easiest Strike Point to get this on was the Holloway Shopping Center, as there's a stack of boxes on the outside perimeter that let's you get to the top walkway very easily without being seen and does not require you to use hacks. Once you get up to the walkway, there will be a few enemies patrolling back and forth, but they are spaced far enough apart that it's easy enough to take them down without the others noticing you(still I decided to play it safe and use takedowns on them as opposed to using the Crossbow and risk missing a shot and alerting the enemies) and from there you can easily reach the Valve(don't worry about killing any of the other enemies below or on the other walkway, just get rid of the ones on the walkway with the Valve and they'll never notice you when you go to turn it).

+1 from me. Worked first try. Only had to kill one enemy too, as the place seemed relatively empty.

This trophy can be a pain but it's not glitched. You will need to get to the valve and deactivate it without being spotted, but once you turn the valve, all the nearest enemies will be on alert. So you will want to make sure that no one is near the stronghold before capturing it.

The easiest stronghold is the Biedul Manufacturing in the first Red Zone, Elmtree. Make sure to take all of the other strike points around this stronghold, this way there will be less enemies patrolling in the street.

Use the crossbow and the RC explosive cars to kill all the enemies inside the stronghold. You can enter the stronghold by destroying the ventilation or hacking the door.

Make sure there are no enemies patrolling around the stronghold and turn the valve. If the minimap turns red, you won't have the trophy.

/! Warning. Once you activate the side mission to capture the stronghold, you can't be spotted. Even if you're around the stronghold and you're being spotted by patrolling enemies, it will void the trophy for this stronghold. Even if you come back later in the game!

Make sure to restart the checkpoint if you have any doubt.

You can see this video for an example at Biedul Manufacturing:

As soon as you get to the first red zone, find the fortress icon at the bottom right of the map. Let's run there. We release the impact points around so that everything around the red fortress is blue. To free some inaccessible points you need to complete a couple of missions and then they will open. After that, we run to the fortress and break open the door with wire cutters. Next we run to the river and go into the tunnel WITHOUT going up to the territory of the “fortress”. We sit and wait for the rebels to clear the area. They will run there until they kill the Juche. Then we come up and turn the valve. There should be 6-8 enemies at the base. You can first mark them with a smartphone camera from the roof of a northern house.

There is an easier way. The same fortress. We clean all areas around, open the back door with wire cutters. Next, using a pistol with a silencer, we demolish the front ventilation from afar. We wait a little for our NPCs to start boiling, and the enemies will run to one wall. Slowly and carefully we climb into the ventilation and climb to the second floor. We throw the machine with firecrackers and blow it up (somewhere on the first floor). When the enemies come running, immediately turn the valve!
PS I advise you to upload the safe to the cloud before doing this

I made a pawn shop in the zone, the first mission in this zone is to capture a strong point, there are only five people there and everyone is on the upper platforms. I killed everyone, but it didn’t work out quietly, I turned the valve and when the explosion had already begun, I pressed start and started from the last control point. When I ran there again, I was surprised because the area was empty, there was no one there, I ran up, turned the valve and the trophy fell out, I don’t know if this scheme will work again, but you can try.

This method really works. Moreover, it works with any KPA stronghold on any map. We find all the Juche people in the stronghold, approach the valve and begin to tighten it. As soon as the valve is tightened and the explosion begins, we start START and load the last control point. We run to the strong point again - there will be no one there. We tighten the valve and the trophy falls out.
