Defend Argus Gate in Tempest Rising

AntMag.NET

Alright, so you've crashed down near Mek Badzappa and his Wartrukk – looks like the Space Marines planned that! Your first order of business is to push through the initial Ork Shoota and Stormboyz quickly. You'll want to reach Argus Gate pronto.

When the Orks attack, position your troops just ahead of the allied forces and close to any cover available. Your Force Commander and Tarkus, using their [TACTICAL ADVANCE] ability, should be the ones to meet the attackers head-on. Make sure to place your [LOCATOR BEACONS] a good distance apart from each other.

Walkthrough

1
Fight Mek Badzappa (23,850 HP). This guy is a serious challenge, so you'll need to be focused. When he puts up his force-field, you absolutely must attack from a distance, or you'll take massive damage. He also throws proximity mines everywhere, so either keep your distance or shoot them before they get too close. Mek Badzappa really hates automated turrets, so expect him to try and destroy them with grenades. The worst part? He can trigger an [EARTHQUAKE] that will almost instantly kill your units. If this happens, you'll need to fall back to the Foundry (press the X-key) and then regroup to attack again. Keep up a steady [BATTLE CRY] and you'll eventually bring him down.

After dealing with Mek Badzappa, your next task is to head towards Captain Thule's location. But SURPRISE! It's Tyranids! You'll need to capture the Relay Beacon on your way east. Just trudge through the alien cannon fodder until you're forced to witness a horrific scene... CAPTAIN THULE!!
