Iron sights are typically composed of two component sights, formed by metal blades: a rear sight mounted perpendicular to the line of sight and a front sight that is a post, bead, ramp, or ring. Iron sights are a system of shaped alignment markers (usually metal) used as a sighting device to assist in the aiming of a device such as a firearm, crossbow, or telescope, and exclude the use of optics as in reflector (reflex) sights, holographic sights, and telescopic sights. The annular shroud around the front post sight is aligned with the rear peep sight to ensure the firearm is properly trained.

Ordered to "sink with the ship" so to speak, the stalkers will insist on impeding your progress to the core and prevent you from delaying the dark energy reaction.Īfter the explosion atop the Citadel rocked City 17, security was breeched on all fronts, and disoriented soldiers became the latest hosts for marauding headcrabs. Those faceplates aren't merely blinders, but harness a powerful laser used for maintenance around the Citadel. These former citizens who were mutilated into submission at Nova Prospekt aren't as docile as they first appeared. For the low-down on these freaks, read on!
In addition to most of the baddies you encountered in Half-Life 2, you'll end up facing off against a few brand-new ones in Episode One.
