* Try to let the first hit on a [[Chieftain]] be an overcharged plasma pistol shot; it will cause it's shields to fall. Killing a [[Chieftain]] is quite easy on all difficulties and with any skulls on provided you can assassinate them. Wait for them them to rush towards you (if they jump, move away), strafe to the side while constantly turning to face them, then melee them in the back. May take practice, but makes [[Brute Chieftan|Chieftans]] one of the least dangerous enemies provided you can do it. DO NOT attempt if they jump, as they can hammer behind them if they jump, though not when they rush.

* Have every person defend two stairs. The long view range from either stair (far enough to see the landing parties actually drop) makes sniping Grunts and Jackals from the other side of the map with the Automag entirely possible- the view will also give you time to prepare if you sight a Hunter or swarm of Drones.

* A good tactic is to have two people in the base (one with Laser to deal with the Wraiths) and two people in the Warthog. Try and jack and/or kill the drivers of two Choppers and get into them, because once the second set rolls around and Tilt is activated, the Warthog turret becomes harder to use, and having two people in Choppers helps to splatter Hunters and Chieftains, but be weary of the rocks and obstacles that dot the terrain.
