Styled as a flashback, Black Ops 6’s Campaign starts with a bang as you’re tasked with intercepting Saeed Alawi’s convoy near the Iraq-Kuwait border and bringing him back in one piece. After USAF supports thins the herd with some targeted bombing, you go boots on the ground to track down your target sided by Marshall and Harrow.
In this guide, you’ll find a full walkthrough for the Bishop Takes Rook mission in Call of Duty Black Ops 6. We’ve arranged the guide based on objectives, so feel free to jump to specific ones using the list on the right.

Locate Saeed Alawi
As soon as the introductory cutscene ends, follow Harrow and Marshall and press forward towards the convoy. Take out the two soldiers that emerge from the vehicle and continue on past the burning cars. Soldiers, using the convoy trucks as cover, will start attacking. Pick them off using cover to stay safe until you get an on-screen marker pointing to Alawi’s vehicle, a black 4×4.

Question Saeed Alawi
Approach the car and open the door by tapping the corresponding button prompt (F on PC). This triggers a cutscene where you learn about Pantheon, a multinational, heavily-armed paramilitary force that shows up to the scene in choppers and takes control of the area.

Reach Rally Point Echo
When you regain control, you’ll see a tutorial pop-up detailing how the Equipment Wheel works. Deploy the RC-XD per the on-screen instructions and drive it towards the soldier at the bottom of the small hill and detonate. Move down the hill and take cover behind the vehicles and deal with the Pantheon forces ahead. Press on towards the Rally Point, taking out the enemy as you go.
Should you need it, there’s an armor plate near the first truck on the left. Pantheon will also drop a range of weapons you can swap out.

Jump down the cliff. Captured by VideoGamer
Take the canyon on the right near the red flare after the burning cars. You’ll be ambushed shortly after. Take out the soldiers up on the ridge by the truck, then the one in the canyon just ahead. Follow the path round to the right and kill the soldiers ahead and the ones near the truck above. Follow the canyon to the cliff, then jump down to link up with CIA traitor Russell Adler, who will lodge a bullet in Alawi’s dome. Turns out the CIA is compromised and Adler couldn’t let either the CIA or Pantheon get their hands on Alawi. Adler has a message for Livingstone: Bishop Takes Rook.
Destroy the Pantheon Helicopter
After the cutscene, you’ll regain control onboard a moving truck for a classic CoD chase scene and have a hefty rocket launcher at your disposal. Take out the Pantheon Helicopter flying above by aiming down the sites and firing when the HUD goes green. It will take three shots to down the chopper.
Sit through the cutscene where Livingstone berates the gang and you’ll have wrapped up the Bishop Takes Rook mission and secured the Unexpected Move trophy. Next up, the Blood Feud mission.
