How to unlock the Fire and Brimstone achievement in Sniper Elite 4 - Definitive Guide
Mission 6 (Magazzeno Facility)
At the beginning of the mission, go straight ahead and look for the spotter that carries the flare gun you need.
Make it to the spot in the video and try to stay undetected or the enemies will leave their positions. If you are at the spot North-West on the map, you should find 5+ ememies standing right next to each other.
Take out our flare gun and shot it right in the middle of the group.

good luck
This is located on mission 6, and is right near the end.
For reference, I am stood next to the radar dish. So find that objective on your map (in the north) and that is exactly where I am stood.
First thing is first, you need a flare gun to call in the artillery strike. These are carried by the enemy spotters, and there are plenty on the map. There is one near the start on the coast, and one near the radar dish for example.
Once you have the flare gun you must fire the flare where you want the artillery strike to occur. There is a delay of about ten seconds from firing to impact, so act accordingly.
Although it isn't shown in the video, I watched a truck carrying troops drive down the road and then stop in the place I fire the flare (you can see the red smoke, this is my flare).
Fire it about ten seconds before it parks, and your golden. I hope this helped.

There are only a couple of opportunities to unlock this in the campaign, the most guaranteed being in Mission 6, ‘Magazzeno Facility.’
First, you need to kill and loot a Spotter because they carry a flare gun which is necessary for this achievement. There are two in this mission:
- From when you first enter the compound, across the dirt road and to the left near some buildings is a Spotter.
- In the southwest corner of the map, there is a Spotter patrolling a parapet.
When you’ve located one of them, identify him with your binoculars, make your way towards him and kill him. Loot his body to pick up the flare gun.
Later on in the mission, you have to disable a radar dish along the western part of the map. In this area are 5-7 enemies close together. Climb up the pipes and approach this area without being seen or heard or else they will be alerted.
It is recommended that you make a manual save at this point in case you don’t kill five enemies with the artillery strike. Open your inventory wheel () and select your flare gun (you can either select ‘Targeted’ for a more direct shot or ‘Distributed’ for a wider dispersal). Hold to place the target and release to shoot. The enemies will fall to the ground and cover their heads thinking they are safe. A few seconds later they will be bombarded with an artillery strike. If you’ve killed 5+ enemies, the achievement will unlock.
