If you're skilled with the Battle Rifle and are trying to get the [[Exterminator]] [[achievement]], you may want to look to the right of the path that is about to be described. There, in the distance, if you are quick enough, you may see several Flood Combat Forms assault a small group of [[Marines]]. They will begin to retreat, though if you fire at them, they may turn to face you, and strafe instead of running away. For quick kills without using a lot of ammo, aim for their chests to kill the Flood Infection Forms that reside inside of them. When you're done with that, proceed as you normally would... | If you're skilled with the Battle Rifle and are trying to get the [[Exterminator]] [[achievement]], you may want to look to the right of the path that is about to be described.

Backtrack down the path you took to get to the Anti-Aircraft Battery. Make your way down the hill, and enter the Storage Area where you previously fought the [[Brute Chieftain]]. There will be a building on your right. Just after the checkpoint -- right when a Marine says, "All squads, report!" -- a Flood Combat Form will appear on the roof and jump over the street. If you kill this Flood during his jump (or right as he starts to jump), he will drop the [[Halo 3 Skulls#Fog|Fog]] skull. Collect Frag Grenades, a [[Gravity Hammer]], and a [[Shotgun]] en route to your first encounter with the Flood. | Backtrack down the path you took to get to the Anti-Aircraft Battery.

As you approach the Marines -- some of which are gathered behind a pile of sandbags, standing next to weapons lockers -- Combat Forms will drop down and start attacking your allies. The safest course of action at this point would be to hang back and wait for the Flood to approach you. Jumping in to save the Marines is a risky decision -- seeing as a single Infection Form can make easy work of one, their chances of survival are close to nil, so rushing in an effort to save them will only leave you surrounded by enemies. Make sure you have your Gravity Hammer at the ready, and take full advantage of its splash damage -- a single blow can usually wipe out several Combat Forms. The Flood don't carry weapons until later on in the level, so melee weapons are quite useful against them. | As you approach the Marines -- some of which are gathered behind a pile of sandbags, standing next to weapons lockers -- Combat Forms will drop down and start attacking your allies.
