Getting Gold:

The Beach is the first level in the game, and is extremely simple to complete. We advise dampening generators and shotgun turrets. The majority of enemies will come from Spawn B. Put the shotgun turrets on each end of the wall (as instructed) and use dampening emplacements to ensure their efficacy. Putting a shotgun turret near the objective is helpful, but this mission is so easy it’s hardly necessary. Deal with tubes efficiently and watch for Big Willie at the end to ensure gold victory.
