Mission overview
The campaign opens into a broad outdoor space. The central job is to regroup with scattered Marines, survive dropship encounters, and learn how vehicles change positioning.
Recommended loadout: Pair a precision weapon with plasma or an automatic rifle; the Warthog handles open-ground pressure.
Objective priorities
- Locate each Marine group before leaving its area.
- Use terrain to break dropship and turret sightlines.
- Keep the Warthog mobile and stop where Marines have useful firing angles.
Combat and difficulty tips
- A precision weapon helps against distant infantry across the open valleys.
- Do not park the Warthog directly under incoming dropships.
- If an encounter stalls, check the radar and surrounding elevation for one remaining enemy.
