  • Mission 3: Relic Interior

    1. Watch the cutscene. Forge and his men get ambushed inside the relic.
    2. Black Box Location: At the start of the level, go South and then West. There is a secret path across the snow. The box is at the end of the path.
    3. This is a rescue mission. Guide your tanks inside the relic to Sergeant Forge.
    4. You no longer have control over Forge or his men. You are given vision of him on the map, but his units are controlled by the CPU.
    5. New Unit: Grizzly
    6. Grizzly tanks are powerful land-based attackers. They function exactly like scorpion tanks, but are much stronger. Grizzly tanks are a considered a Super Unit. Super Units are extremely powerful and can tear through regular troops with ease.
    7. Move North. There are some marines here, but you don't gain control of them. Just go past them to find a squad of covenant troops.
    8. Attack the covenant with your grizzlies. You'll easily beat them.
    9. TIP: Grizzlies come equipped with the canister shell attack. Press Y over an enemy unit to release a huge blast that hurts everything in a small area.
    10. Optional Objective: Kill 45 Hunters
    11. Keep traveling North to find a few towers. Use your canister shells to destroy them almost instantly.
    12. The game indicates for you to go West, but go East first. You'll run into a dead end with a few hunters.
    13. Now head West. Kill the grunts and hunters by the light bridge. Then head North over the bridge.
    14. On the other side of the bridge are a couple towers and a big group of covenant infantry. First use your canister shells on the towers, then mow down the rest of the infantry with your regular attack.
    15. Head slightly East to find Forge and Anders. They are being guarded by several hunters. Your grizzlies are somewhat weak against them normally, so use your canister shells to quickly dispose of them.
    16. Once the hunters are dead, Forge and Anders join your squad. You will also get any marines that weren't killed before you arrived.
    1. TIP: Anders is a hero unit just like Forge. She has the unique ability to repair vehicles. Press Y over one of your grizzly tanks and she'll repair it for you.
    2. Kill the tower just East of where you rescued Forge and then retrace your path back Westward.
    3. The path back outside is now full of enemies again. Use your grizzlies and marines to easily kill them.
    4. Head South over the light bridge. As you get on the bridge, a cutscene shows the covenant destroying the bridge's control panel.
    5. Your path has been cut off. Enemy units start attacking you from the nearby doors. They are mostly grunts, but there are a few hunters too. Use canister shells and grenades to defeat them.
    6. Go East to find another light bridge. Select Anders and have her target the nearby control panel.
    7. Anders leaves your party temporarily. As this happens, a 1 minute countdown begins. You need to defend her while she hacks into the computer and starts the bridge.
    8. Lots of elites and hunters start pouring out of the nearby doors. Use canister shells on the hunters first. Then shoot the elites with your regular weapons.
    9. Elites will continue to spawn endlessly here. When the minute timer reaches zero, take your units South across the bridge.
    10. A large group of covenant troops is waiting for you at the South end of the bridge. Use a canister shell to kill them all in 1 shot. Then have your other grizzly fire it's canister shell at the hunters that follow.
    11. There are several hunters to the East as you exit the light bridge. Kill them and then wait for another hunter to come across the bridge after you.
    12. Optional Objective: Use the Bridge to Kill Covenant Units
    13. This objective is easy and will get you an achievement. Select the nearby control panel with A and the command circle will come up. From here you can turn the bridge on and off. Turn it off while 3 or more covenant troops are crossing to complete the objective.
    14. Achievement: Hot Drop
    1. Turn the bridge back on. There are some hunters that spawn from the Northern walls. Kill them.
    2. You're almost out. Head West from the South side of the bridge.
    3. You'll reach the Southern path that leads you back out of the relic. Take it.
    4. Lots of hunters here. They aren't hard to beat. The real problem is the NPC (non-playable characters). The NPC marines come in and provide some cover fire. The hunters only add to your kill count if your units kill them, not if the NPCs do.
    5. Use canister shells and grenades to ensure that you get the kills for the hunters here. Kill each group of hunters as they emerge from the nearby walls.
    6. When you kill 45 hunters, the Cowbell Skull appears back where you found Forge and Anders. Send any unit back to retrieve it.
    7. Bring your army just South of the last group of hunters. Here you'll find the landing zone in a bright orange light. The mission is complete once your heroes reach the landing zone.
    8. Achievement: Ice Warriors
