You'll start off with the [[SMG]] and the [[BR55 Battle Rifle|Battle Rifle]]. Switch to your SMG, then wait for [[Sergeant Johnson]] to get off the crashed [[Pelican]]. Swap your SMG for his [[Sniper Rifle]]. Now, switch back to your Battle Rifle and enter the doorway. There should be a [[Minor Grunt]].

This doorway will lead you into the Courtyard. You'll see a few Jackals and a few Grunts. Take them out with a mixture of [[Fragmentation Grenades]] and Battle Rifle bursts. Continue into the room opposite from where you came from. Again, there should be a few Grunts and an [[Elite]]. The Elite will be Minor or Major, depending on chance. No fret, they are no threat on [[Easy]]. Take them all down with your Battle Rifle. | This doorway will lead you into the Courtyard. You'll see a few Jackals and a few Grunts.

Now, jump off the building, and you'll see a Lance of Elites and Grunts. Take them down with your Battle Rifle. After that is done, more Grunts will come out. Again, take them out with Grenade and your Battle Rifle. By now, your Battle Rifle would have lost quite a bit of ammo. Reload both your weapons (the Sniper Rifle and the Battle Rifle) and strafe to the left of the turret. There should be some Battle Rifle, Sniper Rifle and SMG ammo, however, we don't need the SMG ammo. | Now, jump off the building, and you'll see a Lance of Elites and Grunts.

Some [[Jackals]] and a Minor Elite will appear out of the crashed Pelican site. Take them out with some [[Plasma Grenades]] and Battle Rifle bursts and melees. Swap your Battle Rifle for the dead Elites Plasma Rifle. Don't worry about zooming, we got the Sniper Rifle for that, and there is plenty of Sniper Rifle ammo in this level. | Some [[Kig-yar|Jackals]] and a Minor Elite will appear out of the crashed Pelican site.

Afterwards, a small swarm of [[Yanme'e|Drones]] will fly over. Use your Plasma Rifle to take care of that. Or for an even quicker and effective kill, use the Machine Gun Turret on the middle level of the building where you got a majority of your ammo from. But Be careful, the turret may not be able to turn all the way to face a few stragglers. Chances are your marines will get them.

Then, go to the other side and kill the shielded Jackals with your Plasma Rifle. Then, backtrack. You'll need more Sniper Rifle ammo. Jump on the boxes opposite from where you are fighting the Jackals; also, where you came from. Jump up again, and there will be the body of dead Marines and dead Grunts. Strafe over the bodies to find some Sniper Rifle ammo. Then, go back to where the Jackals are. By now, Sergeant Johnson would have left on his Pelican. Follow the pathway down, and it'll lead you into Sniper Alley. There are a load of Jackals and Drones here. | Then, go to the other side and kill the shielded Jackals with your Plasma Rifle.

Kill all the Jackal Snipers with your Sniper Rifle, (if you need more sniper ammo go to the dead Jackal Sniper and take it's beam rifle) then take down the Drones and Jackals with your Plasma Rifle. Then, go ahead and follow your Marines into a pathway. A Sniper Jackal should come out. Stick it with a Plasma Grenade or snipe it.

Once you're done, either go left or right to confront some Grunts & Elites in Hotel Zanzibar. Kill the Elite as he poses more of a threat with his turret, then kill the Grunts, who would all be Minor or Major. | Once you're done, either go left or right to confront some Grunts & Elites in Hotel Zanzibar.

You begin this mission by waking up to Cortana’s voice. Once you can move, follow Sergeant Johnson’s advice and secure the crash site. You can swap your [[BR55 Battle Rifle]] or [[M7 Caseless Submachine Gun]] for Sergeant Johnson’s [[S2 AM Sniper Rifle]] if you wish. Note however that he is immortal and always has infinite ammo. Whatever you do, head for the doorway next.It is suggested that you take the sniper as you need it when you are the in the alley for later(and of course now). | You begin this mission by waking up to Cortana’s voice.

As you leave the landing zone, a single [[Grunt]] will approach you, whack him before he can alert his friends near the building on the other side of the courtyard. As you charge across the courtyard you will see a small group of Grunts and [[Jackals]]. Take them out with a quick grenade and some rifle shots. | As you leave the landing zone, a single [[Unggoy|Grunt]] will approach you, whack him before he can alert his friends near the building on the other side of the courtyard.

You can jump onto the truck to your right to get to the upper level of the building. There's an Elite and some Grunts in the atrium of the ruin. Flank them while your Marines distract them. You might want to check out the ammo supply by the steps in the western part of the building. | You can jump onto the truck to your right to get to the upper level of the building.

After several waves, an enemy Phantom will make an appearance. Take cover inside to evade its fire. (Or destroy the guns with your machine-gun.) After it's done deploying troops, greet them with grenades. Take care of the last patrol, wandering into the courtyard through the alleyway leading to the crash site, and a [[Pelican]] should appear. | After several waves, an enemy Phantom will make an appearance.

The pilot will tell you the courtyard's too small and announces its intention to land on the other side of the buildings. After the Pelican flies away two Hunters will break through the metal gates. The easiest way of disposing them would be the machine-gun. Do note that it's now much harder to kill a Hunter by shooting its back than it was in Halo: CE. If you go for the machine-gun, take cover when the Hunter's weapons start to glow. | The pilot will tell you the courtyard's too small and announces its intention to land on the other side of the buildings.

Never underestimate them as not even the Master Chief can survive two well-aimed shots from a [[Type-50 particle beam rifle]]. | ||

Don't take [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]]'s sniper rifle; you will not need it yet. Go to the second floor and fight off the waves of enemies. Keep an eye on the rooftops or you will be [[Jackal Sniper|sniped]]. Swap your [[M7/Caseless Submachine Gun|SMG]] for a [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistol]] as soon as possible—use the [[Noob Combo]] on the [[Sangheili|Elites]] and (if you wish) the shielded [[Kig-yar|Jackals]]. But for the latter, stick-flicking is preferable. When you encounter the [[Yanme'e|Drones]], use your [[BR55 Battle Rifle|Battle Rifle]]—nothing else is particularly effective. To kill the [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]], take Johnson's rifle. Stick the Hunters with [[Anskum-pattern Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|Plasma Grenades]]. Unlike in the [[Halo: Combat Evolved|first ''Halo'' game]], this will cause them to turn around and retreat, giving you a straight [[No-Scoping|shot]] at its weak spot. | ||

Behind the roof and to the right, you can jump to a higher roof (unless you want to skip the whole section). Jump to the balcony of the building to the left, cross the beam, and grenade jump to the roof of the black building. This is the best sniper spot for this section. If you want to pursue this option, take Johnson's rifle in exchange for your SMG from the start. Remember: keep an eye everywhere for snipers. Known snipers: | ||

After they are down, go back and stock up on sniper ammo. The Elites are too much of a threat on the ground with snipers around, so jump to the rooftops.

Drive around the bend, then kill everyone in the structure ahead of you. There is an Ultra and a few Ghosts, as well as a Phantom. Go to the structure that the Marines are using as a hold-out and swap your Battle Rifle for a [[M19 SSM Rocket Launcher|Rocket Launcher]]. Snipe the enemies, including the Jackal on the tower that is 200 meters away. If you see a Ghost, scrap it with a tracking rocket. Beware of orbital insertion pods and additional Ghosts, then continue to the tunnel. | |||

As much as you may like the “flying Warthog,” avoid driving off a high ramp. Your flight will be uncontrolled and your Warthog will take damage when it lands. When you reach the convoy of {{Pattern|Ruwaa|Shadow}}s, drive past them (or kill the drivers and gunners), then drive past the [[Shade]]s and Ghosts.
