The first battle starts, I use all of my most HP people, the first battle you fight 2 gunners and 1 flamethrower. If the gunners HAPPEN to attack Auron of the hits and don't score a critical hit, then it's possible to win this battle, I pull out Rikku, use a chocobo feather on herself, use a hi-potion on Auron and then use a smoke bomb, now the gunners will miss because of blind but the flamethrower will kill all but Auron so I have him attack twice and kill the flamethrower, now I'm at about 100 hp or less on Auron so I have to hope the gunners continue to miss him (Even though they're blind they still screw me up sometimes) Then I raise rikku and use another smoke bomb with her. After 10 trys I beat this first battle once. Then I gained some hope... I healed up and went into the next battle. This one has 2 flamethrowers and a heavy robot, the flamers kill everyone except Auron survives with about 100 hp, from here I can't possibly think of something that will stop this group of enemies. When I get home I think I'll try to use stone breath with Kimahri, but then I think the heavy robot will just take me out, I don't think stone works on Machina...Not sure.... Like I said, this is pretty much my last resort. Rikku and Wakka's overdrives are used up from Evrae and everyone else's overdrive is kinda useless without mix-mods. Even if I do beat this group, there is like 3 more groups and I can't see passing all of them, it seems physically impossible.

I should also note that each time I die on this part I have to watch about 10-15 minutes of unskippable FMV and cutscene so it's VERY frusterating to have to retry this part knowing that it seems to be impossible to pass.
