Easy 95% accuracy achievements

To unlock the achievements that require you to have an accuracy of 95% or above, set the difficulty to easy. When the mission starts, fire one shot at an enemy and make sure it is a hit. Then take out your dagger or sword and kill the remaining enemies with that weapon.

General strategies

When you see an ally fighting hand-to-hand with the enemy, help him. Sometimes they will get killed and you could end up alone. When you finish securing an area, reload your weapon. By doing this you will have a fully loaded weapon in case you are spotted by an enemy. Reloading a weapon can be a time-consuming process. It pays to plan your reloading time and engage in hand-to-hand combat when facing a greater enemy force. Keep mobile and be aware of your perimeter when engaging. One of the most important concepts in warfare, the high ground offers you a better vantage point and firing position. When you are in a stealth mission, stay out of areas with lights and the enemy cannot see you. Note: If you fire a shot they will be able to spot you. While you are shooting your enemy, move from side to side. This will help you avoid enemy bullets. If you cannot see the enemy because of the trees, use your crosshairs. If it turns red it means that you are aiming at an enemy. If it turns green then you are aiming at your allies. In the battlefield you will find wagons, stone wall and baskets. Use them as cover while you are reloading or getting suppressed. When your health is running low, crouch and use wagons and nest to cover until you see a medi-kit. Note: This only works in some missions. Make sure that your firearm is loaded. When an enemy is charging at you, hit him once then shoot him. This will make killing the man charging at you easier. Another way to kill an enemy that is running to a specific spot is to shoot them with a rifle. This will require one or two shots but they will be running and will ignore you.

Hidden gatling gun

On the first level of the Confederate Army on the road, go right before the bridge. You should see a fence. Walk up the fence line tapping A and you should pick up a Gatling gun with unlimited ammunition. Unless you save before you die you will have to do this cheat again.
