Will halo wars have these vehicles, and which are usable if they are in halo wars? Ghost (Recon/Rapid Assault Vehicle) in Halo 1, 2, 3 Brute Prowler (Light Recon Vehicle) seen in Halo 3 Brute Chopper (Rapid Assault Vehicle) seen in Halo 3 Spectre (Light Recon Vehicle) seen in Halo 2 Motorcycle (Marine motorcycle) seen in Halo CE M274 Mongoose ULATV (Ultra Light Recon Vehicle) seen in Halo 3 M12 Warthog LRV (Light Recon Vehicle) seen in Halo 1, 2, 3 M12A1 Warthog LAAV (Light Anti Armor Vehicle) seen in Halo CE M12G1 Warthog LAAV (Light Anti Armor Vehicle) seen in Halo 2, 3 M831 TT (Light Troop Transport Vehicle) seen in Halo 3 Shadow (Armored Personnel Carrier) seen in Halo 2 Cougar (Armored Fighting Vehicle) Wolverine (Self Propelled Anti Aircraft Artillery) Wraith (Self Propelled Artillery) seen in Halo 1, 2, 3 AA Wraith (Anti-Air version of the Wraith) seen halo 3 M808 Scorpion MBT (Main Battle Tank) seen in Halo 1, 2, 3 Rhino (Possibly Heavy Tank or Self Propelled Artillery) Scarab (Mining vehicle/Assault Vehicle) seen in Halo CE, 2, 3
Elephant (Mobile command post/Search Recovery/Personnel Transport) seen in Halo 3 Mythos (small Human Scarab) seen in Halo CE Banshee (Covenant ground assault aircraft) seen in Halo 1, 2, 3 Heretic Banshee (The Heretic version of the Banshee) seen Halo 2 Spirit (Covenant troop transport/gunship) seen in Halo 1 Phantom (Covenant troop transport/gunship) seen in Halo CE, 2, 3 Covenant Air Artillery (Covenant flying artillery platform) Seraph (Covenant starfighter) seen in Halo CE, 2 Hornet (UNSC ground assault aircraft/troop transport) seen in Halo 3 Pelican (UNSC troop transport aircraft) seen in Halo 1, 2, 3 Longsword (UNSC starfighter ship) seen in Halo CE, 2, 3 Shortsword (UNSC atmospheric bomber) Skyhawk (UNSC jumpjet) Sparrowhawk (UNSC VTOL ground attack craft) Albatross (UNSC heavy transport/mobile command post) Kestrel (UNSC anti-ground attack craft)
So is the seraph fighter, the longsword, the pelican, and phantom usable?
I here the flood aren’t usable faction but what types will H.W. have infected forms (brutes, elites, human) pure forms (tank, ranger, stalker) carrier form, infection form (the tiny spore), will there be those producing beds and will the flood juggernaut and the gravemind be in the game? Can they infect other units? Even infect grunts, jackals, Spartans, hunters, etc.?
Also the Forerunner fraction, which is playable, large Forerunner tank…what is that?
Will the forerunners have red beam and blue beam sentinels (the blue ones have only been seen in Halo 2)? And will they have those small sentinels?
Also what weapons will be used, like brute shot, shotguns, rockets, fuels rods? And will they bring back the brute plasma rifle? Will they have the Locust, those small versions of scarabs that are stationary that have only been seen in Halo 2?
Will they have different ranked soldiers, like for human’s regular marines and Odst and etc, brute’s chieftain, minor, ultra, bodyguard etc, elite’s stealth, regular, honor guard, etc, and grunt’s ranks etc, jackals with snipers and jackals with shields and plasma pistols, and soon on? Can you ally on online? How many can you have online?
Will Arbiters be like Spartans for infantry? Will there be a covenant battleship like the Human’s Spirit of Fire that can attack humans? Is there a time wait for using the MAC Cannon and the Covenant weapon like the MAC Cannon? When you play as the Forerunners you can little the rings to finish the flood if it gets to heavy, when can you use it? When is it at the point when the need is great that you can use it?
Will Brutes and Drones be in the game?
Also what is the unknown Wraith that I am hearing about in Halo wars?
Do the Honor Guard Wraith and the flaming warthog have any specific things that regular wraiths and warthogs can’t do?
Since it’s a console game will there be updates? Can you choose to change views from 1st person to 3rd person? Will there be water battles, under sea, sky? I know there isn’t going to be space battles but if they update would they change their mind and have space battles? How much will the beta cost? Will it be gamer points? Can you talk to other ppl with headgear or txt? Can you create your own maps? Make it so there isn’t any flood or forerunners? Marine vs. Marine? Covenant vs. Covenant? Forerunner vs. Forerunner? Flood vs flood?
What else is there that I didn’t mention that will be in the game?
P.S. don’t give me B.S. answers like “wow so many questions”, or “yes for everything” cuz not all are yes or no questions and also don’t give me that stupid “you need to get a life, and find something decent to do, there is a need to do volunteer work and get busy and help some one else” cuz I will have to ask you the same thing if your on your computer on the internet on yahoo answers you have no life to so go do it yourself. So don’t answer it if you don’t know cuz if you are just to get point for yahoo and you chat and rant then im just going to report you

i know that you can use vehicles.. because you control your troops that way. i would assume warthogs/mongooses/tanks, etc.. but i'm not sure about covenant vehicles.

i don't know about the sentinels.

i assume there will be both marines/odst and different covenant ranks fighting.

it's only going to be in 3rd person, NEVER in 1st person.

not sure about the cost or whether there will be water/sky battles. all i've seen is land for now.

i assume you can use the headset if you are on xbox live with someone else.

creating your own maps..probably not. probably manipulating them like forge-style or something.


it's really hard to say what will be/won't be on there because they haven't really told us much of anything besides a title. i don't even think they've come out with an official release date yet and i thought it was supposed to be out back in fall of 08. the only thing i know is what i've seen by the demos/previews shown during E3 and whatnot.

check out the halopedia and look for more answers, or go to youtube and search for the halo wars demo to see what it's like.

umm first you should know that this is a strategy game second most of the vehicles are different because halo wars takes place BEFORE halo 1 so it is going to be way different. and third i saw a demo and it showed a scarab (a early version) in the first level. and so far it is marines vs coveneit im not sure about the rest.

I hope so! Also, have you checked out the latest commercials on youtube? They make it all look so real.
