Just move forward, taking in the sights as you see fit. Head through the jammed
door and you’ll emerge to see a few buggers that scare easily. Through the
door they retreat to you learn that there are suicide grunts all over, three of
which will greet you in here, so execute fast. Down the hall are two more
waiting around the corner, so let them come to you. There is armor lockup that
you may want to consider grabbing due to little warning on these suicide
bombers.

Down the hall will be two more, and then more further into the next room. Clear
it and pick up the ammo. Moving on you’ll see more suicides in the next room,
so kill one and hopefully the chain reaction takes them all out, just be
careful a flying grenade doesn’t stick you. Move up, clear it out, grab the
health on the wall, and emerge in the daylight.

UNSC forces will be fighting brutes, and just try to be somewhat careful when
the brutes are killing civilians – you can save them so long as you don’t shoot
them. Clear the brutes all the way up the path, and with a new squad there will
be covenant out the door on the right. Kill them and move into the mall-like
building.

The courtyard is heavily infested from top to bottom, so clear one side and
advance as you watch all sides. Jackals at the top could cause the most
trouble. Call the elevator and then go out the side door to meet the incoming
brutes who are dropped off. Take them out, especially the one with the huge
hammer, and then return to the elevator where enemies will be advancing on your
squad. Kill all and use the elevator.

*

Move up the right walkway and pick up a jet pack in the alcove. Now we already
had a little training a few levels back, so this shouldn’t be a harsh learning
curve. Leap frog your way to the west. Remember, your jets don’t stop just
when you let go, so you can under shoot your jumps a bit.

Clear the grunts and jump up to the chaos in the construction area. Mucho
brutes all over, including at least one melee brute. Clear your way to the left
wall and advance. Careful not to let your team get ahead of you, otherwise they
could be killed. They will move up, so you can take the stairs, and since your
bullfrogs like to take point in the middle, you can stay to the side and flank
the brutes.

*

Move up to nice looking building and jet pack your way to the top level, then
follow the path to the doorway and just keep going until you meet up with
another team. Be sure to grab a DMR and whatever else before you head out into
the fight.

Snipe as many guys from afar as you can, move up to the columns before the
steps and pick off more. Then start leap-frogging up the stairs, always mindful
of a surprise attack, like the one on the third story stairs where a melee
brute is waiting. Just move cautiously and clear a way to the top.

After the checkpoint you assault a new building, with another stash of ammo
before you head out. Jet up to the walkway above that will have some enemies,
and then go left along it to find a door that overlooks the covenant inside
a foyer. If you had that rocket launcher from earlier, use it now or forever
hold your peace. There are quite a few enemies tucked away in places here, and
a few more out on the landing pad. Your goal is to clear the foyer, clear the
pad, and then blast both turrets.

*

Jump on a falcon and you have a machine gun. The threats here are for the most
part cosmetic, so you can help or ignore if you want. But you do want to hit
up the troops near where you hover over some allies, because you’ll soon join
them.

Swap out guns and heal up. Drive the hog with passengers over to the structures
that are your objectives. Like we always do, drive in circles around the field
as your hired help does the work. There are two wraiths, but they are benign
threats compared to the brutes running around. Your real goal is to activate
two towers, but you may as well use the hog to clear both spots out, rather
than clear one yourself.

With both on, you then need to hit the nearby facility for the missiles, but a
group of covenant are deployed for defense. This time, thread your hog along
the walls of the facility, then drive between the barriers that are supposed to
prevent you from driving up, and drive up. You’ll have to get out as you reach
the tunnel because a big brute with an explosives gun will pop out of a door,
so lob a frag or two at him, bomb him out, and turn on the missiles to end the
level.
