Swim up the river until you come to a large red train car blocking your way. Hidden on the left is a ladder leading up to the roof where you can drop in on the citizen and Vortigaunt. Listen to them and get a quick energy boost before going through the door they show you. Avoid the fire and crowbar down the blocking, also being mindful of the barnacle above. You can shoot it, but it is easier (and doesn’t waste ammo) to get out the crowbar and deliberately get caught on its tongue. Swing the weapon above you when in range, resulting in an instant kill. Or simply run round it. You come upon a battle between rebels and the CPs. Don’t stay out in the open too long, as the cops have a mounted gun in place that will cut you to shreds. Make a sharp right as soon as you come into the main arena and climb into the sewers where you saw a rebel being killed by a CP. Run up the tunnel and you come up in a room filled with health and ammo. Climb the ladder to come up behind the mounted gun and dispatch the cops.

You’ll need the mounted gun as another wave of officers arrives and this is the best way to deal with them. Again plenty of explosive barrels are around so put them to good use. There is a single barrel on a ledge to your right which you have to blow up to create a bridge to continue down. You can tell when to leave when an APC zooms up the side and starts launching rockets. Run down the side path to the right of the gun forwards over the pile of rubble into another open space. Look out for the lambda symbol on the left and find the supplies by jumping over the red car next to it. Take a sharp left past a citizen crouching in a pipe. You find yourself in a series of large vertical cylindrical rooms. The first room has a couple of cops standing overhead on a grate. You might dispatch one of them if you’re very quick but they’ll probably just get away. In the second room, you’ll find water on the floor. Drop down and watch the cops from earlier throw a couple of barrels down. Even if you shoot them, you can’t blow them. Wait until a burning one appears then dive under water. Stay there until the explosions have finished then surface and kill the CPs. Continue forward until you come out into a new arena. Some cops decide the best way to attack is to stand on a rickety bridge with explosive barrels under it.
