This is where it starts to get tricky.  Move down the "highway" with your units, paying attention to any mines that may be set the road (try using the elevated sidewalk to the left to avoid them). Methodically eliminate any enemy units that try to stop you, and don't ignore any of them. When you get close to the CP, CIS forces will try to stop you with AATs. The best way to survive against these is to position yourself so that there is a friendly AT-RT between you and the AAT (try not to pilot one yourself—it's easy to get killed, and you won't be able to capture the CP while on it). When the CP is taken, the tanks will disappear.

Alternatively, you can rush to the nearest AAT and bring it next to the CP. This should save you the trouble. When the CP is taken, the tanks will disappear.

Alternatively, you can follow the elevated path near the purple generator and go around the battle on the highway. You can then cut around to the CP. There is a dip in the wall by the Command Post, which makes an excellent hiding spot to bunker in while capturing the post.

First, spawn as Obi-Wan Kenobi and remove any enemies around the CP you just captured, then move in to the hangar area. After clearing out any droid close enough to interfere with capturing, just stand next to the CP and press the "Force block" button ("F" key on the default PC controls).  This will block all enemy fire from the front and sides.  Work hard to keep Kenobi alive through this objective; he'll come in handy later.

The second rule: '''Know your target.''' Know your character's strengths and weaknesses, and know theirs. Use these facts to your advantage. In this case, you have two distinct advantages: you have a ranged attack (lightsaber throw), and you have the ability to "fly". Grievous has no Force-related abilities, meaning he can't Force jump or throw his lightsabers, so he must get close to you in order to hurt you. Therefore, your safest method of attack is through your secondary attacks.

Throw your lightsaber to damage him when he is not blocking.  When he ''is'' blocking, you have no choice but to attack him up close. When doing this, start from several meters back, and sprint toward him. When you get close, press "attack" 3 or 4 times, and your character will unleash a deadly stream of attacks at Grievous (Obi-Wan Kenobi has one of the most powerful "sprint attacks" in the game). As soon as you regain control of where you're going, you should force-jump away, because Grievous will retaliate... and his attacks are more powerful than yours. Just continue this until he is defeated. If you run low on health, run away and kill some droids (they spawn behind the support beams, near the end of the map—just look near the Hangar CP).

Or, if you don't feel like having such a drawn-out duel, there is a much faster way to get rid of Grievous.  As soon as you capture the command post from the previous objective, force-sprint towards the hanger-opening.  Grievous spawns here.  Switch your secondary attack to force-push and push Grievous off the cliff.  Objective complete! 


If Kenobi is killed, respawn as either a Jet Trooper or an Assault Trooper.  Unload your EMP launcher or the rocket launcher into Grievous until he's dead.  Either unit is useful for the next objective.
