How to unlock the Battle-Hardened achievement in Section 8: Prejudice - Definitive Guide
When fighting the first boss( the drop ship on the 6th level) that rocket launcher (crash rounds) is your best friend. It will take almost all 30 rockets to kill him. He will shot a mini gun at you along with make bombing markers on the area you where standing so watch out for those. When you see the whole place marked up...you should see a a platform held up on the right side jump on that....it will blow up after this barrage of rockets saddly. You should have about 12 rockets in it by now. After this go to the very bottom level and he shouldn't even be able to hit you....the area will fill up with markers but i didn't get hit at all. Just continue to fire at him till it flies away.
The second boss on the next level will be easy. You will be ( or atleast can be in a mech ) The only annoying part is he calls in rocket turrets and troops to assist him. Engineers that spawn have a tendency to heal him. I isolated him away from the turrets and killed any engineers i saw even if i was attack the boss him self.
The finial boss is easy. He will just run around and throw some sort of plasma shit at you. Simply run around in circles and watch out for the infantry that spawn..they will come in with rocket launchers. Use the supply depot as much as you can and just light him up with HMG. Napalm rockets are very effective against him but when you have to take the charge things off his back you will also take damage if he is around the blast. You can use them if you want but be careful.
Good luck to everybody.

Hard is not overly difficult, though the game has somewhat annoying checkpoints. In general, use cover as much as possible - never charge in unless you're sure you've got the advantage. Experiment with different loadouts - at any Supply Depot, you can switch your weapons, mods and upgrades.
The hardest parts tend to be the boss battles. I include strategies for these in the guide, if you feel you have a strategy for any part of the game that works, send me a message with the info and you'll be credited!
Beating the game on hard will also get you Mission Accomplished 2.0. Hard mode is not too bad compared to other games out there, but there are definitely some very difficult spots. Some general tips for hard mode are to always, always have the repair tool. In a tough spot pulling out the repair tool and healing yourself or using it to repair turrets in a defensive location is a great way to help keep you alive. For almost every situation the shotgun with incendiary ammo is probably one of the best weapons to use in the campaign, before you can unlock it however I would stick with the machine gun as it allows you fire continuously at enemies without having to stop and reload. Using a detpack on a mech or an enemy with very high defense can also be a lifesaver; it takes 2-3 detpacks to blow up a mech after the shield is gone while it takes 4-5 with the missile launcher.
