Half-Life 2: Episode One Hints
Soldier Ambush Tips
1 of 4: When you hear the soldiers coming, stand back from the hole and wait in a spot so that they'll have to come right up to the hole to get line-of-sight with you.
2 of 4: That way you can quickly and easily zap them as they appear.
3 of 4: When they stop coming (or if they don't come that close at all), move around behind the hole to get a wider-angle view to see if you can get any more soldiers that way.
4 of 4: Then crouch-jump into the hole and maneuver around in it without falling down on the other side while watching for more soldiers.
