Note – some secrets in this mission are easily missable, as they’re being held by specific enemies. Try to search every enemy corpse, as they can vanish after a while, taking the secret with them. If they do, you’ll have to load a previous save or restart the mission.

10 gnomes in mission 5 – easter eggs
There are 10 gnomes to be found and destroyed in mission 5 – we’ve pictured one of them above. You can treat them as easter eggs of sorts, as they have no practical use and don’t count as primary collectibles.
We’ve marked the gnomes with red dots on our Guernsey island map. Destroying all the gnomes unlocks a gold medal, The Gnome Guard (one of the many medals available in the game).
