Hi.
What I did in those battles was to move the Sentinels either to the left or to the right to experiment where to place them to hit most enemies at once. That worked out for me.
Feel free to contact me privately if you have something in mind. If you do so, then please send me a mail instead of using the private message on the forum, since I don't check those very often.
