Yeah! Leningrad must be one of the most difficult levels in BooH. I still have not done it.

It's only text but if you click on my sig you'll eventually get to a strategy/walkthrough document for BooH. It's based on a run on Nightmare using minimum cards. I did each level twice (at least) using the stratgies in this document. So, they do work. I played to avoid picking up any health power-ups until the end and then doubled back to pick them up to guarantee the 200. However, it does require careful play, so if you like going in guns blazing, it may not be for you.
Good luck.

I really don't know how I could have explained it to you any better than I did in that lengthy post I answered you with Complit.
Stop thinking about being intimidated by the video and just observe the safe cover spots shown.
It's not full on camping, but about as effective if you dash quickly to the spots and time your attacks.
I even offered the tip of turning off the game music to hear the tanks more easily, this is not common advice given in walkthroughs, but very effective.

Getting the card in Leningrad was easy without help from tarot cards (camping is the key).
But the Underworld, thatīs one f***ing annoying level.

Dashing quickly to spots out of their view before they arrive is quite effective too.
Your best bet at the start of Leningrad is to immediately go to the right where the Flamethrower fuel is, and wait for the first group of soldiers to come.
I don't want to make this another lengthy post though. Just watch the video closely, and try to remember what you see.;)

It's obviously due mostly to the mine cart segment, I hate being stuck without freedom of movement. It's nothing like the cart in Snowy Bridge, which you can jump off of whenever you like.

I hate that level for a different reason, I might play Painkiller again before dying from age, that is if I get the card for that level. Iīll use cards, exploit bugs, anything! Does Demon Morph + Mercy + Time Bonus work well?
(Double Time Bonus is weird, itīs like the cards last nothing longer with that card activated)

You just noticed it?
Bonus cards were bugy, someone showed the scripts...

Havenīt PCF still fixed it? I donīt expect a future patch for Painkiller/BooH...
I assume Kalme or someone has made a fixed script available for download?
