EDIT: During the first CHopper fight everything went wrong: the 'Hog and Marines were killed, the Chieftain was still alive as was the Shade turret and both Choppers. However this did not stop me from killing all of them, and commandeering a Chopper. Unfortunately however the CHopeer just doesn't give the driver enough protection to survive a swarm of Drones.
So I tried again and the same situation panned out apart from instead of taking a Chopper through the barrier I managed to scrounge a Warthog which allowed me to make it to the Broken Path. After that I made it to Wraith Hill before getting mortared.
All in all it was a good run.
It's possible to drive a Chopper through the tunnel and past the swarm, you just need to boost at the correct time to get you under them and far enough up the slight slope in the tunnel. I did it a few times. Would I recommend it? No, not really.
Yeah, I definitely learned that the Chopper is too risky because it only gives you cover from the front whereas the Warthog is more encompassing and generally goes faster.
Still I was surprised that I managed to kill everything except the Drones on foot. I guess that I fight better in open areas as opposed to close quarters.

Made it to the Scarab, mainly by a great deal of luck, but hey, it's progress. I think I'm just going to have to resign myself to the fact that it's going to take 20+ tries per level. The Ark is gunna suck...
I think that the Scarab is the key point of The Storm because after you kill it you get the Arbiter to help out. I actually finished the mission on the first time I defeated the Scarab, my only problem was the Marines and the AA gun, other than that your home free.
That's pretty much the truth, and the only reason I rate The Storm as being easier than Tsavo Highway. When you stop and think about it, The Storm has the potential of being only have a mission.
