    Mission 10 - Enemy Lines
    Difficulty: Easy

    During the part of the level where you fly the Phaeton and board the Kraken, do not shoot any of the operating shade turret on the top of the kraken's deck. ALso make sure that you do not accidentally command your AI to shoot them. Just get in your phaeton and immediately go to land on the Kraken, complete the objective by destroying the core and finish the level to unlock the achievement.

    During this phase, jump onto a Phaeton operated by another Spartan to also unlock:

    Nothing complicated at all simply do this. Though I did not bother landing I simply jumped out of the Phaeton.

    I was able to do this while playing solo and without any other guides.

    To control the altitude of the Phaeton, on the controller setup that I play I had to use cn_X and cn_A.

    I noticed that after killing 2 of the initial Banshees that are flying around the Kraken, carefully hitting them with the Phaeton's guided missiles from an angle where I wouldn't hit any of the Kraken's turrets by accident, a big passage opens at the bottom front of the Kraken and 2 more Banshees come out. You can take advantage of this window and rush inside it, destroy the core with sticky grenades or some other power weapon and then get out of the Kraken.

    It is a fast get in and get out thing to do and I had no problems with my team destroying any turrets while I did that, so the achievement unlocked.

    If this idea helps you in any way, feel free to leave a thumbs up. Thanks.

    NickMon68Just to be clear the Kraken is the big thing your following on the level, the Kraken turrets at the gun turrets on in. They are not the ones on the ground in the level. Just grab a flier when you get to the part of the level that gives you a ship, and head for the Kraken open part in the middle and land.

    When you do you might get shot of the sky a few times, also be aware of the enemies when you land.

    The flying ships : L1 go down, R1 up - took me ages to work that out !
