BCM570 - Pyramid megabattle, another two plays

(6:39) Level 8 ('Two Betrayals') on Normal. Two more plays of my latest pyramid megabattle save. In the first I start with some long-distance work up on the edge of the forecourt, then in the second I go in hard with a rampage around some rocks, using shotty & needler.

Commentary

00:02 (Play 1 - Forecourt shoot) The initial theme of this play is to go up to the edge of the forecourt for some sniping and rocketing, principally directed at the bridge covies. Fun stuff.

After that I head down to take care of the rest of the opposition, and to start with I get the two path group 2 Elites Grunt-bombed. I'd been hoping to also acquire the Grunt's needler, but there's no sign of it.

Next (1:57) there's an 'aerial ambush', in the knowledge that by now, path group 3 covies will've got drawn back up the path to some extent. I try to take some out with my initial rocket, but the shot lands a bit far back, leaving me with a bit of a struggle.

03:29 (Play 2 - Rocks rampage) To start with I'm off on a rampage around the rocks on the right, and I get a helping hand from the Wraith, which finishes the gold Elite. Afterwards I enjoy some bridge clearance on foot. Banshee work takes care of most of the rest, but I end by killing the tunnel Grunt with a point-blank shotty blast. Nice conclusion I thought.

Closing remarks Another two plays coming next!
