My God, hard stuff.. *Mild spoilers*

I can't remember what the level is called, but it's in the prison and it's on the part where Alyx tells you a wave of soldiers is headed your way. There's 3 turrets you have to set up, and a hev & health kit on the wall. If ya know what part I'm talking about, that is bloody deadly! I'm playing on hard for a bit of a challenge, and I'm seriously considering movin the difficultly down to easy for this part

Anyways, anyone got any tips on how they did it? I set up the turrets, get in position and between the numerous manhacks and grenades knocking over my turrets is frightening

Cheers :E

Put the turrets in corners. There are two good corners near where the supplies are. Put two turrets there. The third goes on the other side, near where the ammo is, also in a corner. When two turrets can see each other, they also protect eachother. I also barricaded one of the entrances to gain me some time. It's very doable. Don't worry you'll get it.

I did it like this:

-----|-------------------|-----
-----|3               1  |-----
(                                   (
(                                   (
--------------------      -------
                   |     |
                   |     |
-------------------        -------
( * /                             (
( * /                             (
-----|g                2 |-----
-----|------------------|-----

The two slashes and two stars are crates and barrels I used to barricade the entrance with.

But I guess if you want you can jump up the upper terras with a turret and sit there.

Here is the only way I could get through it. I just turned all of the sentry turrets around in the cabinets they were in. After that I stepped into one of the empty slots where a sentry gun would be stored but I made sure I was in one of the center slots. That way the soldiers have to enter the room where you and all three guns are. They will have to step into a narrow field of fire as well. So they do not have a good chance to knock the turrets down. Also the slot where the turrets are will help keep them upright. And to get to you they will have to pass by at least one turret. You will be able to support one of the other turrets with your weapons if in sight. If you want to you can step out. Use the shotgun. It has good knock down capability at close range. :thumbs: Good luck.

i set two turrets up near the entrances to that little 'room' where the health/hev stations were, and another i either carried around with me or placed it at blind corners to catch combine off their guard etc.

main thing i did was to keep moving and keep throwing grenades. i managed to complete after the 500th attempt and it was extremely satisfying
