By the way kiowa, I can't wait for you to get to the end of Half-Life 2 Episode 2.
You gotta tell me your reaction to that "Unforgiving Battle" when you complete it.
Yeah finished that strider battle... Quite challenging indeed. Here's what I figured out after retrying a few times:

1. Finish off the hunters first. The striders can always wait.
2. The most efficient way killing the hunters is conventional weapon fire. Although ramming one or sending its bullets back may seem smart, these are not as effective as weapon fire when you have plenty of ammo.
3. When using rockets against hunters, aim for the ground beneath them for splash damage if engaging from mid-long range since they dodge the rockets and the trail smoke prevents you from guiding properly.
