Commentary
00:02 (Play 1 - Needler & plasma pistol) Having found that it was actually fairly easy to explosively kill Jackals with my needler as they came up the rise, that's the initial plan I go for in this first play, though I've also got a plasma pistol if I want to take down a shield first. Together with a few grenades, that accounts for an enjoyable phase of around 80 seconds, during which I also needle the nearby Elite in the muster bay, who posed a threat with his needler. Then things develop from there, featuring further explosive needling of course.
03:26 (Play 2 - Sniper rifle & AR) A completely different weapon combo now, to make for a change. Eventually there are views of the stack, seen through my sniper scope.
05:14 (Play 3 - Speed play, AR & needler) I finished the previous movie with a speed play using this combo, and now here's another but 13 seconds faster. Quite a nice play I thought. Includes some good frag throws near the start, and later a plasma throw into the stack.
Closing remarks One more Jackal-heavy instalment coming next!
