Walkthrough

1
The mission begins with your ship being pulled into a planetary crevasse, and three platoons are unable to evacuate due to Flood infestation. An EVAC countdown will appear on screen.
2
The Gremlin vehicle emits an EMP pulse that can disable electronic devices, including the pylons pulling your ship down. There are 4 pylons: 2 north of base camp, 1 north of Alpha, and 1 south of Charlie. Disabling each pylon grants approximately 5 extra minutes.
3
The CRYO bomb is a powerful tool that freezes and damages enemies, especially effective against flying Flood swarms. Upgrading it to at least Medium level is recommended for clearing Bravo's path.
4
Alpha Squad: This is the easiest to rescue. Use Scorpions and Marines after using the CRYO bomb. You will gain a Grizzly tank upon liberation.
5
Bravo Squad: This is the most difficult due to the high concentration of flying swarms. Use upgraded CRYO bombs, Wolverines, or Scorpions with Canister shells. Avoid using Marines as they can become infected. Clearing the Swarm Spawn point will make this easier. Bravo's location contains the level's Black Box. You will gain an Elephant upon liberation.
6
Charlie Squad: This is easier than Bravo, with fewer Flood pods in the path. Clear the pods and then EVAC the squad to gain access to Spartans.
7
After liberating the last platoon, they will remain on the ground. You must escort this final platoon on foot back to base camp due to an attack on the Pelican.
