My method involved driving a truck covered in bombs onto the bridge and then having a protracted firefight in which I annihilated both ends of the bridge from above.

Really? My plans usually involve engineering studies and demolition plans against key structural points... which inevitably fail, causing me to break out the sledgehammer and thermobaric rockets.

I *like* getting into giant fights in that game.  Sometimes I'd occupy a building and the EDF would become so determined to get me out that they would start tearing the building apart from the outside with guass cannons.

The way I look at it, you only get to destroy each building once, might as well have fun with it.

I remember one time when I had to complete a mission by going through a building, but I had blown up said building beforehand and had to go back to an earlier save.

The game is SUPPOSED to rebuild buildings which are necessary for missions (although I think only for the duration of the mission, then it goes back to being destroyed afterwards).

No, I had blown up the building during the mission. I had to revert to the checkpoint before I'd blown it up.

Is Harrington the one in Eos or the one in the Badlands? Unless I use the Nano Rifle, I cannot take out the one in the badlands.  Even with giant amounts of explosives, it never gets completely destroyed, and there is so little cover to prevent being annihalated by the EDF response.  The one in Eos is still hard, but considerably easier. 
My own for that game is always playing on the insane difficulty.  I wish there was one that was a bit harder, but playing on insane gives it a true guerrilla feel.  The longer you stay, the less your chances of getting out alive become.

Badlands. The one in Eos is the Eos Memorial >_>. For the Harrington, you're actually told outright that demo charges probably won't cut it.

Use the special hidden bomb things. I think that did it for me, though I loaded an earlier save because I really liked that bridge.

Ahh, the satisfaction of a 4-color 1700-chain Geo Clear in the Item World. Especially when there's no convenient isolated island to throw an enemy onto and you have to play keepaway with the last guy to avoid ending the stage early until you can set up the combo.

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Finally got a good team in MvM.
Took us quite a while, but I won a round from start to finish.

We really need to do an MvM thing with Bay12 people. I would take part in that.
