Half-Life 2 Hints
Elite Soldier Tips
1 of 3: As soon as you hear the sound of breaking glass, jump back off the ladder and run to where you're standing directly under the walkway the elite soldiers are on.

3 of 3: From that vantage point, they can't shoot you, but you can shoot them with the pistol (or the crossbow for quick one-shot kills).
