How to unlock the This calls for divine intervention! achievement in Zombie Army Trilogy - Definitive Guide
Firstly, Despite what some people claim you will unlock this achievement by choosing enemies for one player setting in a quick match game, this is confirmed by myself and Crimson Elf 94
There are a few ways of doing this and I will list them all but the easiest way is to search for a quick match game until YOU or a friend find your own lobby!!!
If you join another players lobby they can leave or restart the game at anytime they choose, if they leave you lose all progress for that level.
When you or a friend finds your own lobby (no one in it but you or them) invite each other and use the following settings:
GAME SETTINGS
Sniper Elite difficulty
Enemies set for ONE PLAYER!
Friendly fire OFF
Primary weapon: Any bolt action
Secondary weapon: Shotgun
Pistol: Any
Choose 4 grenades
Choose 1 land mine
Now when you start the game you will have randoms join eventually, they will at best help you and at worst be cannon fodder!
Never risk your own life by trying to run out and revive someone in front of an elite soldier, kill the elite first.
The game is very easy on SE difficulty when set to one players worth of enemies.
ENEMIES AND HOW TO DEFEAT THEM
Super Heavy: has MG42- you must kill him with multiple headshots or many explosives
"Panzer Zombies": heavily armored zombies, aim under the head, neck area, or shoot head from behind. (Preacher shotgun recommend, read below)
" kamikaze zombie ": They explode a grenade at close range, shoot them before they explode.
Snipers: look for a green vapor trail, they jump many times from roof to roof, 2 body shots or one headshot.
Chainsaw zombie: again headshots kill them, just don't allow him to get close and your good.
Armor zombies: they look like regular zombies with riot gear on, headshots or shotgun body blasts.
Summoners: these guys just spawn more zombies over and over, the only thing that kills them is a headshot
Standard zombie, headshots, body shots, or explosives....they are easy kills.
Remember most enemies die quickly from headshots.
The Preacher shotgun
In every level there will be one or very rarely two preacher shotguns, there will be ammo next to the shotgun itself and you can sometimes loot ammo off zombies but it does seem to be a 5 to 10% loot chance (2 rounds)
The Preacher will take down hordes of zombies and " boss " zombies as well. It is by far the strongest gun in the game!
The next way to do this is solo, I don't recommend it!
Its always better to have a partner to revive you and chat with. Also some users report progress is not showing up when they play solo.
Another way is 4 player coop, with people you know or boost with, which is ideal but sometimes its hard to find players willing to play or boost the same time as you which is why I have given the quick match method priority.
*UPDATE
Even if a gamer drops out of the game and re-enters or enters an ongoing session, like if you're in the middle of a level and he joins, he still gets the Sniper Elite 3 Stars and the level achievement if he doesn't have it.

Just to clarify for others :-
1. Have a friend create a lobby for the mission you want the sniper elite completion on. Friend choses Difficulty = sniper elite.
2. The person who needs mission completed joins the friend's lobby.
3. Friend launches the mission
4. After you launch the mission and both you have spawned, the second player (who needs completion) invites the same friend into the game. This will trigger you getting kicked out of the mission and in the lobby screen.
That's it.
5. Second player - leaves lobby and can now go back and verify by selecting the same mission to confirm it is showing "completed" on sniper elite difficulty.
6. Rinse and repeat the above steps for all the missions you need to be completed on sniper elite.
confirmed this works as of 5th July 2021 on last few missions I needed to get sniper elite completed.
One thing to note that my friend had all the missions completed on sniper elite before I did this. Not sure it matters if you need a friend who has completed these missions previously on sniper elite.
Nice find THK Reconzz :-)
To earn this trophy you must complete all 15 missions on Sniper Elite difficulty. It is recommended to play with more than one player in co-op with Enemy Spawn set to ‘For One Player, as you will encounter many survival areas where there are waves of zombies, heavy gunners, fire demons, suicide bombers. You can play on Solo but it will take much longer and is more difficult.
General tips for playing on Sniper Elite difficulty:
- Look for the Preacher shotgun in each level - The preacher is like a super-shotgun and is good for racking up your combo. Otherwise equip the Shotgun in your load out before starting each level.
- Traps for Super Elites - Place loads of land mines, trip mines, dynamite when you see a Super Elite. Lure him into the trap and then chuck some hand grenades at him. Get in some headshots and he will be dead before you know it, just don't get caught in his blast.
- Explosives that flash red - Save these for when there is a big group of zombies. These are also good to help get you the explosive kills trophy.
- Always check for snipers - Snipers jump from roof to roof and a clean headshot will take them down easily.
- Suicide bombers - These bombers run fast, to shoot them before they get to you. Make sure you don't get caught in the blast.
- Ammo - Make sure you loot as many enemy bodies as you can to obtain explosives and ammunition.
You can unlock this solo or in co-op campaign. I'd recommend co-op as solo can be quite frustrating, time consuming and difficult. If you create a private co-op campaign with some people, set the difficulty to 'Sniper Elite' and enemy spawns to '1 Player' you can quite easily do this without many issues. Unfortunately you cannot make a public game solo unless you fail joining an already created game and are given your own lobby.
