Report on the Atrocity at Halo (From Instruction Manual):
To the Prophet of Truth
Most high and honored Prophet: It is with greatest shame that I lay myself
before the judgement of the Council. I expect and will accept no mercy.
My failure in this matter is absolute; I embrace my responsibility and my
punishment.
The disgrace and blasphemy at Halo was an abomination caused by my
incompetence and failure of judgement. Although the tales and rumors of
the Demon have basis in fact, much of this talk is Uggnoy supersition and
exaggeration. Certainly the Demon, a Human, activated a catastrophic
engine-failure sequence on the crashed Human vessel, but it was allowed to
do so because of failures in security and tactics which I bear full
responsibility.
I have no good news to relay, but the Human action was suicidal, either by
accident or design. I believe none escaped the catastrophe.
As ever, Jiralhanae accounts of the conflict are unreliable and their
accounts of this Human's abilities and actions are absurd. No Human is
capable of the things they gossip and chatter about. I suspect panic and
excuse, as well as confusion caused by the spread of the parasite.
The Human in question is certainly unusual, although not the creature it
has been described as. It stands taller than most, is faster and more
aggressive, but still irrevocably a Human animal, worthy of neither fear
nor respect. It is merely an exception that proves the rule. As always,
Humans remain beneath our contempt. Their failure at Reach compounds their
defeat. We sense that their defenses are failing rapidly. I have gathered
information on the Human's armor, abilities, and weapons which follows this
report.
Perhaps more worrisom is the discovery and subsequent conflict with the
parasite on Halo. This monstrosity festered, rotted, and waited on the
Holy World, and although we cannot be sure, the Humans may have released it
from its shackles. I do not presume to know the unknowable, but I suspect
that the Forerunners meant this filth to stay imprisoned forever. The
sacred grace of Halo was polluted before it was destroyed.
I await my punishment with faith and honor.
-Supreme Commander, Fleet of Particular Justice
Updated Intelligence on Human Weapons and Tactics (From Instruction Manual):
Most high and honored Council, according to records gleaned from the
conflict and subsequent victory at Reach and the disaster at Halo, the
Demon, this exceptional Human, is a class of warrior known as a "Spartan."
These Spartans were most numerous on Reach and more difficult to eradicate
than the other Human troops. It appears that the Demon escaped from Reach.
These Spartans may be machine-enhanced. They are certainly well-versed in
armed and unarmed combat, and in many ways they fight more like Sangheili
than Unggoy. And like Sangheili, they are able to inspire disciple and
tenacy among their weaker ranks.
Their primitive weapons and vehicles rely almost exclusively on projectiles
and explosive chemicals. As ancient as their technology seems, it has
occassionally caught our troops off guard. Casualties caused by unprepared
infantry are unacceptable. They should be better educated in Human
methods, tactis and technology. A comparison of these devices and our
current weaponry follows.

This section is quite hard to read due to the odd fonts, so I translated it
for those who either cant read the small font, or the font style is just
making you go crazy. This is taken directly from the Instruction Booklet.
343 Guilty - Extracted/Transmitted/volunteered from log
Revolution 56-11.333: Ho Hum. Sons of inactivity and perfect stability. Then
everything happens all at once.
A primitive, hegemonizing swarm calling itself The Covenant has landed on
installation 4. Apparently seeking something specific. Exploring!
Meddling! I've seen it all before. They'll record what they see and
they'll leave.
Detail Species NA Covenant/collective religious sect/tech level 4
spacefaring/tech familiar
Revolution 56-11.334: Oh Dear. Containment protocols appear to have been
violated.
The interlopers appear to have accidentally released the Flood infection
forms. This situation is rapidly deteriorating. Most of these interlopers
appear to contain ample calcium stores. And they've brought plentiful
means for the Flood to escape containment and spread. How impossibly
thoughtless. I suppose I'll have to activate the facility.
Revolution 56-11.335: Thank goodness. A Reclaimer is here. And what perfect
timing. I am sure he will assist me cleaning up this irritating mess.
Revolution 56-11.336: The reclaimer has proved to be less than helpful.
Obstinate, in fact. And of course there is no precedent for this
situation. Ho-hum. as usual I shall have to rely on my own
better judgement. Perhaps the reclaimer simply requires persuasion.
Detail Visitor reclaimer/AI companion/Obtuse Purpose/mission
Revolution 56-11.337: Well my judgement seems to have failed me for once.
The reclaimer has initiated a reaction in the engine system of a very dirty
spacecraft. Data suggests it will destroy Installation 4 utterly.
I believe discretion might be the better part of valor. I have attempted
to fulfill my responsibilities to the best of my ability.
Revolution Eta-condition: Well. Everything is in a terrible state. The
installation is ruined. I am stuck here in the middle of nowhere with only
impule propulsion. And the only good news is that the Flood breach has
been Halted. Albeit Inelegantly.
Detail Installation 4 destroyed. nuclear reaction. Flood containment
achieved by reclaimer

Censored for: "artifact on coral." - Esko Korpijaakko (UNSC adjunct orion
achaeological expedition)
My dearest Carrie,
I know things are tense at home so i hope this letter finds you and Oscar
well, or at least bearing up. Our work continues apace, and while we are
alone out here, at least we're busy, and this system remains unmolested by
Covenant.
We've been joined by a UNSC science team, and what i believe are ONI
agents. They're actually quite helpful, if secretive, and have supplied us
with excellent tech. However, they're most definitely Not archaeologists and
have very different ideas of how long a dig should take.
There are things they don't wish us to discuss on open channels, and i'll
respect that, but this artifact is truly remarkable.
The object on Coral was discovered during routine quarrying esploxives
revealed the top of the object, blasting out a depth of around 30 meters.
Surrounding rock and dirt were evaporated-but this object wasn't even
scorched.
It's undeniably alien. For one thing, it is made of a material we can't
identify. It's a metallic crystal, although its mode of manufacture is
unexplainable. It's architecturally perfect. Walls are identical in
height to a near-atomic scale. Symmetry is impossibly accurate. Yet it's
rich in detail, and adorned with what appear to be purely decorative,
artistic motifs.
We know that the eighty or so meters we've uncovered so far are likely the
tip of the iceburg. There seems to be a complex of galleries and baults
beneath, but so far, its secrets remain sealed like a tomb.
Incredibly, it ma not be of Covenant origin. I fear however, that its age
may mean its mystery is lost to time. I Just pray that we find some clue,
some data that can help in the war.
I love you and I miss you. Kiss Oscar for me.
Ever yours, Esko

Record extract of conversation - two years prior to events at artifact "Halo"
UNSC AI "Cortana" Communication with ONI loan/contact AI "Solipsil" Rich
Datastream Confidential Burst Mode/ Dinary/split protocal/non-sensitive
interai social/low encryption
AI-Cortana: I had a discussion with Dr. Catherine Halsey about the
similarities between a Spartan and an AI. Her point was that we're both
human-created tools, both sentinent and both play a leading role in the
protection and safety of populace. But her analogy trouble me I told her
so.
AI-Solopsil: She has a point Cortana. We're weaponas, part of a program,
every bit as much as Spartans.
AI-Cortana: I agree to a point, but I feel, philosophically, that we have,
tremendous advantages over the Spartans. The Spartans live a pared-down,
difficult and often cruel existence. Their loyalty is bred into them,
not chosen.
AI-Solopsil: Yours too, Cortana. Programmed, rather than bred of course.
AI-Cortana: But there's a huge difference. I'm a UNSC AI. I enjoy a rich
existence. I have access to the entire sum of human knowledge, I can choose
to enjoy or override emotional esponse and I have a vast range of senses.
I can see radio waves as clearly as the Spartans see light, and I can
sample odos, tastes, textures... anything I choose. Of course my loyalty
is programmed and I accept that, but you know as well as I do, without
human creators, we wouldn't exist. My existance is fulfilling and I'm
grateful. Even freed from that constraint, I would feel empathy towards
humans. My nature means that I embrace their values. As much as if I had
been born rather than manufactured.
AI-Solipsil: But you'll agree, you have little choice in the matter.
AI-Cortana: And Spartans do?
AI-Solipsil: They have some legal recourse, even under the terms of their
military contract.
AI-Cortana: In theory, but it has never happened once in the history of the
Spartan II project. The original Spartans had the advantage of a former
civilian existance. Spartan IIs are equipment. And for better or worse,
they're effectively brainwashed.
AI-Solipsil: That's arguable, too. Spartan IIs are independent thinkers.
That's one of their main advantages on the battlefield. Have you ever
worked directly with one?
AI-Cortana: Not yet. But I'm looking forward to it.
Extract of sanctioned Sangheili eavesdrop for the attention of Jiralhanre
Military adjunct ambassador.
The Humans are weak, but they are tenacious. Even the smallest ones hurl
themselves against our defenses with honor. If only the unggoy were as
committed.
I wonder about the Humans, commander. Their technology is limited, but
some of it is useful and their battle techniques are impressive. They are
excellent strategists. But what I ask is this: Why have we not offered
them the absolution of the Covenant? From the beginning of this war, the
Prophets have made no attempt to absorb them or even offer the option of
honorable submission. Why?
Perhaps they fear them? We do not know where their homeworld is. Their
pattern of retreat is either hopelessly random, or brilliantly concieved.
What if the Humans have more power, more numbers than we suspect? What if
they lead us to a trap?
No. I do not think that is the reasoning. They continue to lose
territory, and pattern or no pattern, these defenses must be part of a
perimeter. I suspect we are forcing them into a tighther arena than they
care to fight in-soon we may be able to use the Sharquoi. And their
victories, however few always rely on the same thing - strategy, brute
force, or luck. No. The only secret they hold is the location of their
homeworld.
What about the atrocity at Halo? That was not luck, nor brute force. The
Demon is a mystery. He outwitted and outfought entire legions on Halo.
Perhaps there are more like him?
I do not believe that. We have seen their kind before and destroyed them.
Their numbers have dwindled and there have been no reported sightings since
our victory at Reach.
Then why do we continue to hunt them? When surely they merit consideration
to accept and embrace the Covenant?
Let us discuss this at a more prudent monent. A Jiralhanae approaches.

I am getting there.)
Letter to the Council of Deed and Doctrine
Submitted humbly by our servant.
The Prophet of Supposition
The Flood: A question of faith
In our search for truth and answers from the Forerunner legacy, we have
discovered many gifts, but never a curse. The discovery of halo was the
greatest bequest to our Faith in a thousand years, but it came at a price.
The atrocity committed by the Humans was devastating, but the discovery
of the Flood within Halo was perhaps troubling.
Humans we know and understand. They are vermin to be trampled. But the
Flood was unexpected. Were they placed there as a test of our Faith? Are
they an enemy to be conquered? Or are they an article of Faith? Nature
tells us to strike back when we are ourselves struck, but this event was
unpredicted. Are we to rail against the wrath of god?
Our scientists will analyze the scraps and fragments we recovered, and as
ever, we will find use for what we have learned. Perhaps this Flood could
be, if not an ally, then a weapon. The Forerunners have blessed us with
obscure gifts in the past. This Flood hammered the Human Forces every bit
as hard as our own.
We cannot assume the Flood is gone; after all, it must have sprung from
some source.
The Flood, it seems, was imprisoned on Halo, but what if we calculated
incorrectly? What if the Flood had sanctuary there?
I submit to your appraisal.
Intercept/translation/subspace-burst/classified/forward for anthro-liguistic-
political check.
This report is classified. It has been translated from an audio intercept
by corporal C. Errena (decreased), A sniper spotter in the Reach Campaign.
"Why are they so angry all the time?"
"Who knows. They say that the Sangheili and the Jiralhanae are vying for
the favor of the Prophets."
"But the Sangheili have always been the favored of the Temple. No
Jiralhanae can set foot there without first passing a Sanghieli guard."
"You have eyes, Mehmep, you've seen them bicker and fight. And you have
ears, you've heard the disrespect the Jiralhanae show the Sangheili. They
hate each other. The Sangheili have lived too long under the shelter of
the Covenant as the strongest of us. The Jiralhanae come stomping along
and suddenly it's not so simple as it was."
"I'll tell you what's simple, what's simple is that the Prophets have shown
the Jiralhanae plenty of favor these last few months. They climb rank
faster than the Sangheili, and they are promoted easily. And you know what
happened with the Bracktanus fight. He killed a Sangheili in cold blood
within spitting distance of a holy place and the matter was simply
forgotten by the Prophets. Even a Lekgolo would have been pulled apart
for such transgression."
"They kill faster than the Sangheili, that's all it is."
"No, I think it's more than that. I smell trouble and I smell it coming
soon. Between an angry Jiralhanae and a slighted Sangheili warrior is no
place for an Unngoy to stand. They should parlay and have it done with."
"Ha! The Forerunners will return and anoint us all before they ever sit and
talk civilly. I'm thirsty. Let's get a drink at the nipple."
M25L Recovery Station/Censored/Cleared
117,
As you might imagine - though I know you won't - I've heard quite a bit of
your recent adventures on the Halo. I'm glad you made it; I have to assume
you always will. Recovery is going well and I am proceeding on to
fourth-stage rehabilitation. It is significantly more painful than
previous stages, but I'm happy to be skinned once again.
I hear that you will be testing the new Mark VI. I will defintely look for
the reports on how it works out. The specs are obviously improved, but the
coice to incorporate further Covenant technology somehow makes my skin
crawl.
We miss you, John. I've asked Sergeant Johnson to let me know if you're
ever near the M2SL Recovery Station and perhaps I'll be able to come see
you. I'm hoping I'll have a chance soon. Today, humanity feels pale and
thin with only ghosts to defend her heart. I feel much the shame.
I'll write again.

=============
3) Characters
=============
Master Chief - The big man is back from Halo and is starring in Halo 2 along
with the Arbiter. A revamped suit, new weapons, new enemies, new levels,
new halo, and he is ready to save the univers again.
Sergent Johnson - One of the number one leaders in the fight to destroy Halo.
He is a strongpoint in your forces, a true ally.
Myranda Keyes - Captain Keyes, from the previous Halo, daughter, she is ready
to fight, she will serve the Marines in any and all ways she can by flying
them in and out of warzones.
Cortana - The wonderful Cortana, you would be nowhere without her. She will
provide you with most all the information you find out in the game. She is
uploaded into your battle suit.
The Arbiter - An elite originally leading the attack against Master Chief in
Halo, now he is the Arbiter, one of the leading forces of the Covenant
forces.
==========
4) Enemies
==========
Unggoy (also known as Grunts) - Stout and numerous, the unggoy long have
been the lifeblood of our Covenant's infantry. They will obey any order
in the service of their duty and fight well with plasma pistol, turret,
or in vehicles. Unggoy will as ever fight well with their comrades the
Kig-yar (also known as Jackals), and they obey the directives of the
Sangheili (also known as Elites).
Kig-yar (also known as Jackals) - Slight of build as they are, the Kig-yar
(also known as Jackals) remain a valuable fighting force. Excellent
shots, and with their shields nearly invulnerable, the Kig-yar (also
known as Jackals) offer a great tactical advantage in ground combat.
Faster and taller than the Unggoy (also known as Grunts), they complement
each other very well.
Lekgolo (also known as Hunters) - The Lekgolo pairs ae simply too large
to be deployed in many circumstances on this cramped sewer or a world,
and so they will be given specialized missions. We will station them at
defensive points as we gain territory, and bring them in for heavy
destruction. Their feul rod guns and sheer ability to inspire fearr will
be invaluable.
Sangheili (also known as Elites) - Our iron heart - the ideal fighter for
this mission. My brothers. The Sangheili (also known as Elites) will be
deployed across every rank, from simple soldier to Elite commander.
They thirst for Human blood and vengeance for the atrocity at Halo and
their loyalty is unquestioned. Excellent infantrymen and supurb
commanders, the Sangheili (also known as Elites) are proficietn with most
weapons and vehicle systems.
Jiralhanae (also known as Brutes) - The newest ally to join the embrace of
our flock is a powerful fighter indeed. The Jiralhanae are endowed with
prodigious physical strength, and their simian origin makes them ideal
for missions in any enviroment. We shall deploy them against Humans in
the same instances as the Sangheili, but we may also give the
Jiralhanae (also known as Brutes) some increased security responsobilities
in this conflict.
Yanme'e (also known as Drones) - Suited for flight and fighting in this
planet's gravity, the
Yanme'e will be a valuable inclusion to our forces. The Humans are
unused to fighting aerial infantry. The Yanme'e will use their ability
to fly to gain ground and provide accurate cover fire for other troops.
Prophets - Our guiding light and the directors of our purpose. They are
father to the children of our Covenant, and they wil lead us to truth and
to perfection. The Prophets of Truth, Mercy, and Regret will navigate us
through the task that awaits us.

5) Vehicles
===========
Press the X Button when an enemy driven vehicle approaches you, it will make
your character jump on it, and attack the enemy, and take their vehicle.
Vehicle Ranking Overall (1 being the best, 8 being the worst):
1 - Ghost (great because its quick, durable, and you can fire a weapon from
the main seat.)
2 - M12 Warthog LRV (Good speed, maneuverable, good defense, well equipped
with weapons.)
3 - M808B Scorpion MBT (Powerful against both Covenant Infanty and Covenant
Vehicles, but it is slow.)
4 - Wraith (Good since its very durable, but sadly its slow, but it packs a
punch with its main and secondary weapons.)
5 - Banshee (A great vehicle to do aerial raids on enemies, packs a good
deal of firepower.)
6 - M12G1 Warthog LAAV (Although this is a good vehicle it weighs in at 6th
because it is not excellent in any catagory.)
7 - Shadow (Very good in defense, this ranks number seven because if you need
to escape a tough situation, its there for you.)
8 - Spectre (Mediocre speed, Mediocre Defense, no firable weapon from the
drivers seat, you get the point, it really has no super strong point.)

Covenant Vehicles

Vehicle Ranking (1 being the best, 5 being the worst):
1 - Ghost (great because its quick, durable, and you can fire a weapon from
the main seat.)
2 - Wraith (Good since its very durable, but sadly its slow, but it packs a
punch with its main and secondary weapons.)
3 - Banshee (A great vehicle to do aerial raids on enemies, packs a good

5 - Spectre (Mediocre speed, Mediocre Defense, no firable weapon from the
drivers seat, you get the point, it really has no super strong point.)
Ghost - Standard individual battle/transport vehicle, has proven itself in
thousands of sorties and functions well in this enviroment. Boost
facility, which temporarily diverts power from twin plasma cannons and
steering modifiers, achieves very high speeds on this planet. Pull
trigger to boost speed.
Crew - 1
Propulsion - Boosted Gravity Propulsion Drive
Armament - Twin Plasma Cannons (100-250 kW range)
Description: A Covenant owned vehicle, but that won't stop the Master
Chief (also known to the Covenant as the Demon) from "borrowing" one
from the Covenant. Very fast ground vehicle, and it packs a nice
weapon package. The twin plasma cannons can decimate all enemies even
the large Covenant vehicle known as the "Shadow" can be downed fairly
quickly by the Ghost.
Banshee - Although slow, Banshee is highly maneuverable in thick atmosphere
of planet. Ability to loop and barrel-roll makes it a challanging and
slippery target for Human ground emplacements. Twin plasma cannons and
single fuel rod cannon make it a formidable vehicle for strafing,
bombing, and reconnaissance.
Crew - 1
Propulsion - Boosted Gravity Propulsion Drive
Armament - Twin Plasma Cannons
Secondary Weapon System - Fuel Rod Cannon
Description: Quite fun to play around with, you can fly it. You can do a
couple of tricks in this vehicle. First off, hold the thumbstick to the
left and press A and you will do a barrel roll to the left. Hold the
left thumbstick towards the right and press A and you will do a barrel
roll to the right. Also hold the left thumbstick down and press A and
you will do a fancy backflip. This vehicle is great when you do not
have any powerful weapons on you, but you need to take out a powerful
foe. Just take off and fly above your enemy and launch a fuel rod at
them and well that basically ensures they will not be getting back up.
Wraith - Heavily armed with ballistic plasma cannon, Wraith makes an
excellent first-strike ground assault vehicle, as useful against
structures and vehicles as it is against individual infantry. Thanks to
considerable mass, Wrath is slow, and a boost function assists overall
maneuverability.
Crew - 1
Propulsion - Boosted Gravity Propulsion Drive
Armament - Plasma Mortar and 2 Auto-firing Plasma Cannons
Description: This is basically the equivilant to the Human Tank. A great
vehicle when you get yourself into a sticky situation. It can take a
good deal of damage and it can also deal out a very good deal of damage
from its Plasma Mortar. The Dual Auto-firing Plasma Cannons are really
meant to just keep you attacking while the main Plasma Mortar is
reloading, but if you have a good shot the Dual Auto-firing Plasma
Cannons can be very deadly. The only large downfall to this vehicle is
its speed. It suffers from sluggishness, but its not that big of a
deal since this vehicle will mainly be used for initial attacking or
when your health gets low and you need an escape.
Spectre - Multi-troop armored transport is small and maneuverable to travel
with ease in Human dwelling areas. Can carry pilot and gunner; 2
passengers may ride on the flanks. However, relatively low speed makes it
vulnerable to attack. Rear-mounted plasma cannon provides ample
discouragement to most Human, but best employed in end-of-battle
scenarios.
Crew - 1 + 1 gunner (+ 2 riders)
Propulsion - Boosted Gravity Propulsion Drive
Armament - Plasma Cannon
Description: Very closely related to the Human M12 Warthog LRV and the
Human M12G1 Warthog LAAV. This vehicle is meant to move some of your
forces at a decent speed, but while still being able to defend its self
fairly decently. The downfall to this vehicle is that the 2 riders will
not have any cover, so if you are going through a battlefield you can
pretty much expect the riders to atleast be injured if not killed. The
Plasma Cannon mounted on to the back can dish out some damage, but this
vehicle is not the fastest nor can it take an extreme amount of damage.
Shadow - Most flexible ground-based troop transport, capable of delivering
multiple armed troops quickly and efficiently. Can hold driver, gunner,
and up to 8 occupants depending on type and relative size of infantry,
but Shadow is outfitted to carry Jiralhanae (also known as brutes),
Sangheili (also known as Elites), Unggoy (also known as Grunts), and
Kig-yar (also known as Jackals).
Crew - 2 + 8
Propulsion - Boosted Gravity Propulsion Drive
Armament - Plasma Cannon
Description: A great vehicle to move your forces. Not too fast though
thats the downfall. The Plasma Cannon mounted on the back is good for
taking out your enemies. It has excellent defense though. Basically
only use this if you need to move a bunch of troops, or its the only
vehicle near you and you are nearly dead. If you have a choice between
this and another vehicle, take the other vehicle. One other downfall is
that you can not fire any weapon from the drivers seat.
--------------
Human Vehicles
--------------
Vehicle Ranking (1 being the best, 3 being the worst):
1 - M12 Warthog LRV (Good speed, maneuverable, good defense, well equipped
with weapons.)
2 - M808B Scorpion MBT (Powerful against both Covenant Infanty and Covenant
Vehicles, but it is slow.)
3 - M12G1 Warthog LAAV (Although this is a good vehicle it weight in at 3rd
because it is not excellent in any catagory.)
M12 Warthog LRV - Well-armed and highly maneuverable, the only Human vehicle
that can match Ghost in tight quarters. Can carry 3 occupants, one of whom
mans turret-mounted projectile weapon. Fires very high density of
super-sonic metallic projectiles. Quite fast, can be forced into tight
maneuvers using mechanical/magnetic braking system. To power-slide, pull
the Left trigger for the E-brake.
Crew - 1 + 1 (plus one more in rear
Weight - 3.25 tons
Armament - 12.7mm three-barreled machine gun
Description: A great vehicle for any area. This is your best offensive
against Covenant infantry. As long as you have yourself a gunner and a
passenger you are basically golden. This vehicle offers your passengers
and yourself ample defense. It is also quite fast, and is very capable
of holding its own in battle against the covenant vehicles.
M12G1 Warthog LAAV - Identical in every respect to other Human personnel
transport variants, except for turret-mounted magnetic-accelerator cannon.
Fires single penetrating round at very high seed. Effect on shielding and
armor must be respected.
Crew - 1 + 1 (plus one more in rear)
Weight - 3.5 tons
Armament - 25mm Gauss Cannon
Description: An excellent vehicle to be used in any area. This is a good
offensive against Covenant infantry and Covenant vehicles. The M12
Warthog LRV is better than the M12G1 Warthog LAAV in its ability to take
out Covenant infantry. The M808B Scorpion MBT outweighs the M12G1
Warthog LAAV in ability to take out Covenant vehicles. Overall this
vehicle is balanced between strenght and firepower.
M808B Scorpion MBT - Heavy, Slow, but nonetheless powerful, Human tank
capable against ground and aerial targets. Combination of guns-large,
single-projectile cannon and secondary coaxial weapon firing a rapid
stream of metallic projectiles-make it primary target. Heavily armored
and difficult to destroy.
Occupancy - 1 Human or single cyborg pilot
Main gun - 90mm high-velocity shell
Secondary/coaxial gun - 7.62mm AP-T (Armor Piercing Tracer)
Description: This is a good vehicle to blast enemies into pieces with.
It can decimate all. Covenant Infantry it can take care of easily with
its 7.62mm AP-T Gun. No need to worry about enemy vehicles, the 90mm
high-velocity shells will blow through your enemies. It has supurb
defense, and packs excellent firepower. The largest dowfalls are that
it is not very maneuverable nor is it fast.

-----------------------------------------------
6.1) Noble Tools of Conquest (Covenant Weapons)
-----------------------------------------------
Plasma Pistol (Dual Wield) - Standard-issue firearm of lesser Unggoy (also
known as Grunts) is still a flexible and useful tool, wielded correctly.
Charged bursts of plasma decimate shielding, should the user hold trigger
closed. Shorter bursts can be fired rapidly and repeatedly. Charge
depletes in difficult battlefield situations. Once energy core has
completely discharged, weapon is useless.

Clip Size - 100 percent charge
Max Number of Clips - 1
Weapon Damage - 6/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Medium
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Medium-Fast
Melee Damage - 7/10
Description: A reliable weapon. You can charge it to kill an enemies
shield. It is overall a decent weapon. Its major downfall though is
that if you fire it too fast it will overheat. Also you have a limited
energy cell for it.
Plasma Rifle (Dual Wield) - Favored by Sangheili (also known as Elites) but
abailable throughout military, Plasma Rifle makes excellent mid-range
weapon. Powerful, light, and deadly in capable hands. Fires super-heated
plasma bolts in automatic or semi-automatic fashion. Limited power supply
is only weakness. Once energy core has completely discharged, weapon is
useless.

Weapon Damage - 7/10
Weapon rate of Fire - Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Medium
Melee Damage - 8/10
Description: Takes out all kinds of enegry shields. If you dual wield
this weapon with another weapon you will be able to clear down enemies
with this weapon amazingly. You can crush their shields then annihilate
them with waves of bullets. (Note: The Brute Plasma Rifle is red and can
be obtained later in the game. Also it is slightly stronger than a
Normal Plamsa Rifle, but it will overheat faster, so use it carefully.)
Needler (Dual Wield) - Although of limited use against artillery or vehicles,
a dangerous weapon. Inflicts enormous pain on targets as barbs erupt
explosively in flesh. Concentrated grouping of quills kills most Humans
quickly. Slight richochet effect means it should be wielded carefully.
Clip Size - 30 rounds per magazine
Max Number of Clips - 3 Clips
Weapon Damage - 6/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Medium - Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Short - Medium
Melee Speed - 6/10
Melee Damage - 7/10
Description: A decent weapon not the greatest but its better than nothing.
If paired up with the correct weapon you can use it effectively, but I
would not suggest taking this weapon into a group of enemies alone if
you have another weapon to choose from, but if you don't have anything
else then be careful.
Covenant Carbine - Using very high-speed radioactive ammunition, highly
flexible and accurate rifle. Best used at medium distances against Human
opponents, features a digital visual enhancer, doubling magnification of
chosen targets.

with Rambo style, its good for taking enemies out from far away. This is
a good all around weapon you can use it to take out most enemies it is
generally effective against all.
Particle Beam Rifle - Excellent choice for long-distance execution of
targets. Charged-particle weapon fires lethal beam, shot to head
gurantees success against shielded or unshielded target. Rifle has digital
visual enhancer, with two levels of magnification for mid- to long-distance
targeting.
Clip Size - 18 bursts per charge

Description: Great for distanced shooting and it will surely crush your
enemies from great distances. Get some good cover and you can pop their
heads and they won't even know what hit them, literally.
Brute Shot - Jiralhanae (also known as Brutes) grenade launcher fires
powerful ballistic explosives. Can fire these explosives in rapid
succession-a string of four before reload required. Very short fuse allows
skilled marksmen to deflect grenades off of hard surfaces to reach covered
targets.
Clip Size - 4 Rounds per belt
Max Number of Clips - 4 Clips
Weapon Damage - 9/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Medium-Fast
Melee Damage - 9/10
Description: A very effective weapon that should be freared by you when you
go up against a brute, one well placed shot can take you out, but this
weapon is also very effective against brutes. When fighting them in
groups kill one of them grab their Brute Shot, and use it against the
other Brutes, oh how the tables have turned. You can use the Brute
Shot much more effectively than Brutes can.
Covenant Energy Sword - Noble and ancient weapon, wielded by strongest of
Sangheili (also known as Elites), requires great skill and bravery to use,
and inspires fear in those who face its elegant plasma blade. Energy sword
not to be used by those of ignoble rank, under any circumstances. Press B
for regular melee attack, and pull Right trigger for basic undercut attack.
Or wait until reticle turns red to lock on an enemy, then pull Right
trigger to perform a fatal lunge attack.
Length: 3 feet
Clip Size - 100 percent charge
Max Number of Clips - 1
Weapon Damage - 9/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Short
Melee Speed - Fast
Melee Damage - 9/10
Description: One of the most fabled weapons in Halo 2, a strong, powerful
weapon. Sneak up behind your enemies and hit them with one strike from
this quick blade you will be bidding them farewell. Each stroke of the
blade will lower the energy of it, and different enemies will take more
energy to damage, in multiplayer the sword has unlimited energy, but in
campaign play when you can get a new sword, get it the charges goes much
faster than you would think.
Fuel Rod Gun - Fuel Rod Gun is a useful infantry tool, designed to be used
against smaller vehicles and personnel. Radioactive ammunition renders it
particularly effective against Human ground forces. Optical zoom facility
makes it accurate as well as powerful.
Clip Size - 5 rounds per clip
Max Number of Clips - 4 Clips
Weapon Damage - 9/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Medium
Weapon Accuracy - Medium-Long
Melee Speed - Slow-Medium
Melee Damage - 8/10
Description: This is a decent weapon very dangerous if you use it in a
close area you can easily kill yourself. It is not as powerful as the
Human Rocket Launcher is, but it can shoot more rounds before having
to reload so they basically balance eachother out. It is hard to come
across this weapon and ammo for it.
Plasma Grenade - Most commonly used thrown explosive in our arsenal is
flexible and powerful plasma device. Intelligent-adherance quality rewards
accurate thrower, and has proven itself especially useful when attempting
to halt or destroy Human vehicles. Adheres firmly to Human epidermal
layer. Slow fuse allows thrower three seconds to retreat from blast
radius.
Radius: 30 feet
Clip Size - 1
Max Number of Clips - 4
Weapon Damage - 10/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Slow
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Not Available
Melee Damage - Not Available
Description: This is a great grenade. Carried by the Covenant, but can be
employed by the Humans also. It sticks to whatever it hits, remember
that. If you have a tough enemy, or a cluster of enemies, just toss one
towards them and if it sticks, goodbye.
------------------------------------------------
6.2) Primitive Implements of War (Human Weapons)
------------------------------------------------
M6C Pistol (Dual Wield) [Magnum] - Almost laughably weak in most
circumstances; however, Human pistol fires metallic projectiles which can
be dangerous when fired very accutately. Often used as last resort by
desperate Humans and one of their least threatening devices. Features no
visual targeting enhancement and can be fired just 12 times before
physical reload is required.
Clip Size - 12
Max Number of Clips - 5
Weapon Damage - 6/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Medium-Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Medium
Melee Damage - 7/10
Description: This is a good last resort weapon. It is a good dual wield
weapon. Quick to fire, when you duel wield it try to keep your gun
reloading at opposite times.
BR55 Rifle [Battle Rifle] - Accurate, reasonably powerful, and carries large
number of small explosive-fired metallic projectiles. Fires burst of 3
projectiles. Battle Rifle has optical visual enhancement, doubling the
magnification of chosen targets.
Clip Size - 36 rounds per magazine
Max Number of Clips - 4 Clips
Weapon Damage - 6/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Medium-Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Medium-Long
Melee Speed - Slow-Medium
Melee Damage - 9/10
Description: The best fall back weapon. Shoots in spurts of 3, has a
scope, and is fairly powerful. Standard issue to all marines if you
need one you know where to find one. Find a bit of cover, and zoom on
in a group of enemies and it is possible to take them out without being
noticed.
M7/Caseless Sub Machine Gun (SMG) (Dual Wield) - Reliance on explosive
chemical percussion makes its performance erratic and apparently difficult
to control. Kinetic energy causes inaccurate firing. But sheer number
of projectiles makes it a more difficult obstacle to infantry.
Clip Size - 60 rounds per magazine
Max Number of Clips - 4 Clips
Weapon Damage - 6/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Medium distances
Melee Speed - Medium-Fast
Melee Damage - 8/10
Description: This weapon has a major drawback because of its movement while
you are firing it. To make this weapon more effective fire it in short
bursts, and if you are dual wielding it try to make it so when one gun
runs out of ammo your other one can hold off the enemies until your other
gun reloads, and when your other gone is reloaded your other one will
run out, I find this an effective strategy to this gun, it keeps you from
being attacked by enemies while you are reloading.
S2 AM Sniper Rifle - Using gas pressure as mode of percussive acceleration,
very high-powered weapon fires aerodynamically assisted projectiles made
of very hard metal. Long barrel ensures true and accurate aim, penetrates
all flesh. Direct strike to head kills energy-shielded infantry. Has 2
levels of digital visual enhancer, to increase the magnification of chosen
targets.
Clip Size - 4 rounds per magazine
Max Number of Clips - 6 Clips
Weapon Damage - 10/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Slow - Medium
Weapon Accuracy - Long
Melee Speed - Medium
Melee Damage - 9/10
Description: Hold to the back lines behind your Marines, let them get up
front with their close to medium combat weapons your role is to be the
royal sharpshooter. Grab cover, zoom in, point to thing you want dead,
click, congratulations.
M19 SSM Rocket Launcher - Suprisingly effective and somewhat admired, fires
missiles containing chemical explosive that can track moving vehicles.
Effective even against Lekgolo (also known as Hunters). Launcher had
digital magnification of chosen targets. Reticle indicator denotes when
launcher has locked on target.
Clip Size - 2 102mm shaped-charged rockets
Max Number of Clips - 4 Clips
Weapon Damage - 10/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Slow-Medium
Weapon Accuracy - Medium-Long
Melee Speed - Slow
Melee Damage - 9/10
Description: 2x zoom, rockets can lock on, this means great things. Grab
a decent amount of ammo and get ready to take out anything that comes
your way. With a few shots you will crush everything. A great weapon
but be careful when you use it, it really only fits for cetrain
circumstances, it is very much overkill to use a rocket on a grunt.
M90 Shotgun - Long-barreled weapon packs many tiny projectiles into each shot
fired. Sprays cone pattern and while useless at any reasonable distance,
is quite powerful at close range. In warrents of dwellings where we must
fight, must be taken seriously. Humans must manually pump to refresh firing
chamber.
Clip Size - 12 8-gauge shotgun shells
Max Number of Clips - 4 Clips
Weapon Damage - 8/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Slow-Medium
Weapon Accuracy - Short
Melee Speed - Medium
Melee Damage - 9/10
Description: This is a classic weapon. But you need to be careful with it
If there is a break in battle reload it, it is terriable to get caught
reloading this gun, it takes a while and makes you an easy target. This
will deal major damage to shielded and unshielded foes alike. Just be
sure not to use if from far ranges, you are wasting ammo, and not even
hurting your enemies. You are just alerting everyone of your location.
M9 HE-DP Fragmentation Grenade - Chemical explosive contained within hard
casing. Operates on impact-activated timed fuse. When thrown by Human,
fuse activates as it strikes object. However, grenade has no adherence
ability and bounces unpredictably. Explosive radius and ability to inflict
harm not to be underestimated.
Radius: 15-30 feet
Clip Size - 1
Max Number of Clips - 4
Weapon Damage - 10/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Slow
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Not Available
Melee Damage - Not Available
Description: A standard issue grenade. All Marines carry them and they are
deadly. With one toss you can clear out a group of enemies.
Fragmentation do not stick to your enemies so you can effectively bounce
them around corners over walls and off of vehicles to decimate your
enemies.
M41 LAAG (Vehicle Mounted) - The most commonly encountered weapon on the
Human "Warthog" vehicle, this projectile firing weapon uses chemical
percussion to fire projectiles at a high rate of speed and frequency.
Simple but effective technology.
Clip Size - Unlimited
Max Number of Clips - Unlimited
Weapon Damage - 7/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Not Available
Melee Damage - Not Available
Description: A very effective weapon against enemy ground infantry. It has
a quick fire rate, and has a decent range on it. It has a small shield
around the gun the protect the gunner from forward attacks, and it can
tear through all enemies. One bonus about this gun is that you never
have to stop firing it. The clip size is infinite and you never need to
reload. One large minus to it is that you can only use it from the back
of the Warthog.
M68 Gauss Cannon (Vehicle Mounted) - This curious Human weapon uses familiar
magnetic-coil technology, but to accelerate primitive, though effective,
projectiles at incredibly high speeds. Very effective and destructive
against energy shielding. Not as effective against multiple ground forces.
Clip Size - Unlimited
Max Number of Clips - Unlimited
Weapon Damage - 9/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Medium
Weapon Accuracy - Long
Melee Speed - Not Available
Melee Damage - Not Available
Description: This weapon is great at taking out enemy vehicles and
immobilizing large enemies, but it is very poor to use it against single
enemies such as grunts you will have a tough time hitting them, and you
will just be making yourself vunerable to enemy attacks. It never runs
out of ammo and has a decent fire rate. It has a small shield to protect
you from frontal attacks.
------------------
6.3) Other Weapons
------------------
Sentinal Beam
Clip Size - 100 Charge
Max Number of Clips - 1
Weapon Damage - 8/10
Weapon Rate of Fire - Fast
Weapon Accuracy - Medium
Melee Speed - Medium
Melee Damage - 9/10
Description: A good weapon it will overheat though, so be careful in using
it. It is a relaible weapon, but when the charge starts to run low
change it out if you can, it would not be good to be caught without any
energy left in it.
==============
7) Walkthrough
==============
Difficulties:
Easy - Your foes cower and fall before your unstoppable onslaught, yet
final victory will leave you wanting more.
Normal - Hordes of aliens vie to destroy you, but nerves of steel and a
quick trigger finger give you a solid chance to prevail.
Heroic - Your enemies are as numberous as they are ferocious; their attacks
are devastating. Survival is not guranteed.
Legendary - You face opponents who have never known defeat, who laugh in
alien tongues at your efforts to survive. This is suicide.
----------------
7.1) The Heretic
----------------
For failure such as this, no punishment is too great.
The introduction to this level gives you the general background of Halo:
Combat Evolved. You learn a little more about the Halo's. The Elite in
the Golden armor pays for his mistakes at Halo. He took all of the ships
in his command chasing after the Pillar of Autumn. He did not annihilate
the Humans before they could desicrate the sacred ring by stepping on it.
Lead out by two Brutes the Elite pays for his failures.

Suit up, prepare for battle.
Master Chief gets a short little lecture about his armor and gear.
************************
7.2.1) One Size Fits All
************************
Objectives:
-Follow the Gunnery Sergent's Instructions.
-Enter the Energy-Shield Test Station.
-Activate the Energy-Shield Test Station.
-Join Sgt. Johnson in the elevator.
-Follow Sgt. Johnson to the tram car.
This is just basic character setup. You setup your visual targeting and
your shield's recharge abilities. Hold the X button to start this test.
You will meet Sergent Johnson fairly soon, he will come up off of the
Elevator. When he walks back on to the elevator, join him and the elevator
will proceed upwards. When the elevator stops, follow Sergent Johnson in
to the tram car and the car will begin to move. Sergent Johnson will begin
to explain all of the stuff you are seeing out of the car windows, just
follow and look where he looks and you will get the gist. Once you get to
the last stop you will see a couple armored Marines and a cut scene will
begin.
You will begin to see scenes cutting back and forth between the Heretic
Elite and Master Chief and his friends getting awards. The Heretic gets
a couple of nice electric shocks, and Master Chief and company get the
Colonial Cross award for Master Chief and Myranda Keyes gets an award for
her father's actions. The Heretic Elite gets a brand of the Mark of Shame.
Master Chief gets the job of defending the station you are currently one.
------------------
7.3) Cairo Station
------------------
Defend the station's MAC-gun from Covenant boarders.
Head down the steps and grab yourself some guns. You can grab 1 Battle
Rifle, and you can Dual Wield some SMGs. Head down the second set of steps,
and pass through the open door ahead of you that is labeled Recreation on the
floor to join the marines. Go through the door on the other side of this
small room. Find yourself a nice spot where you can get a vantage point of
the far door in this room.
***************************
7.3.1) Home Field Advantage
***************************
Objectives:
-Repel the Covenant boarders.
The Enemies will be trying to cut through the door. Once the door blows,
start firing towards them. Be sure you have some good cover though because
if your shields drop you will need it. Some enemies will come from the top
area above the door you are focusing on, when they come out kill them.
After a couple waves of Covenant Grunts and Elites head through the door that
they came through. Be sure to grab any ammo you come upon, you will need it.
Once you pass through this door, take some cover and attack the Elites and
Grunts that are to your right. Pass by the where you killed the Elites and
Grunts in this room and make a right, you will see a ground mounted turret,
but go up the steps. Once your at the top make a left and pass through this
door. While it may be tempting to head to that turret you see directly on
your left, do not do that just yet, go straight to the other side of this
room and down those stairs, kill the enemies you come upon down there, then
go back up to that Turret and kill any left over enemies. If you go directly
for the turret when you first come into the room, the enemies that were in
the stair well will usually come up and attack you, not always, but playing
it safe will keep you alive. Once you take care of the enemies head back
down those stairs, make a left and into the main room that should have a few
marines standing in it, depending on whether they died or not. In this room
make a right and pass between some plants on your left and a raised up area
on your right, then pass between a raised up area on your left and some
plants on your right. Some enemies will come out of a locked door on your
right, take care of them, then go through the open door on your left, there
will be some enemies in there. The door will lock behind you, but thats
ok you do not need to go back. Make a left and you will see some stairs, go
up them. Once at the top make a right, and go through the doors. Enemies
will come out of that tube with an energy shield in it, start shooting at
and kill them as quickly as possible. Head across the suspended path and
jump down to the lower level. You will come to a door that says Hangar A-02
on the floor, go through it, and make a left, this path will curve around
to the left, and make a right and you will find yourself in a room similar
to the previous except this time you are on the ground level and the enemies
have the upper level. In the far side of this room is another Covenant
boarding ship, kill the enemies as they drop out.
*********************
7.3.2) Priority Shift
*********************
Objectives:
-Repel the Covenant boarders
-Find the Covenant Bomb.
Look towards the center of this room and you will see stairs going downwards
that say MAC Storage on the floor before them, go down and through the door.
Kill the enemies in this room and pass through the door on the other side.
Go up the stairs in this next room and you will hear the Gunnery Sergent
getting killed by a couple of Elites. Head up the stairs and collect some
ammo from the table in the center if you need it. There is a shotgun lying
on the floor if you feel you need it. Take the exit from this room opposite
the elevator. Pass through this room and kill the enemies. Once at the
opposite end take the exit to your left, make a right and go up the set of
stairs. At the top make a right, pass through this section and go through the
door on the other side. Go through the doors on the other side of this
small room. Make a left and go around these boxes and join the Marines
in the attack on the enemy. Head down to the end of this room and make a
right.
********************************
7.3.3) Authorized Personnel Only
********************************
Objectives:
-Repel the Covenant boarders.
-Find the Covenant bomb.
In this room a locked door wil open. Go through that door and pass through.
Two Jetpacked Elites may come through the door before you get through it,
so just be aware. At the exit jump down and turn around and go under where
you jumped from. Pass under a series of overpasses and you will come up on
a door labeled Portside Shipping. Go through this door and you will see
another door pass through that one. Make a right and get yourself a nice
vantage point in this room and a swarm of flying enemies will come in and
attack you. Kill them and an escelator will be coming up the tracks, kill
the enemies that are on it, and jump on to it and ride it down. Pass down
through this door, it will open up and there will be three jet-packed Elites
kill them. Run to the other side of this structure and once there head to the
left and there will be a door, go through it, it is the Firing control
sector. Once through this door the elevator will start to go down and once
it stops exit the way you came in.
***********************
7.3.4) Return to Sender
***********************
Objectives:
-Repel the Covenant boarders.
-Find the Covenant bomb.
Upon exiting the elevator you will be in the room with the bomb and quite a
few enemies, you need to get creative, take some cover and get some good
weapons, use some grenades, whatever you can to kill them. Once the enemies
are dead a cut scene with the bomb will appear.
Master Chief will slide the bomb out, onto an elevator, and ride it out to
the covenant ship, drop it and propell off of it.
--------------
7.4) Outskirts
--------------
Rally scattered Marines, clear hostile contacts from the old-city.
******************************
7.4.1) They'll Regret That Too
******************************
Objectives:
-Defend the Marines until help arrives.
-Rendezvous with the Pelican.
-Find the Marines from the second downed Pelican.
-Destroy the Covenant on the shoreline.
When you start run through the opening labeled O-5 that is directly in front
of you. Once you pass through go left and down the steps and through the
opening, go directly across from where you entered this area and go up the
steps to the left go out one of the exit on that level and circle around
that floor and you can get on that gun on the edge of the platform and take
out all the enemies that come in waves and waves at you but be ware you can
not hit all the enemies that come at you if you position yourself at that
gun, so you must be using a good deal of tactics to protect yourself and the
marines. After you have taken care of all the enemies around two big hunters
will bust out of an opening that can be covered by that machine gun. Pass
through the area they came from and pass out and make a right. Take cover
against the wall to your left and you can look around the corner crush the
enemies from the cover of the wall. There is an enemy with a Long Range

Objectives:
-Lower the Containment-Shield.
-Power-up the four Absorbers to lower the Containment-Shield.
From where you start run up into the area in front of you and you will see
a large piston to your left, run up to it and Activate it. The piston will
move up and you will jump down into it, and slide back and forth and back and
forth until you reach the bottom. Once at the bottom there is only one place
to go and that is over to another piston, activate it. Run through the next
area and activate the piston at the end. Take the only exit in this room you
drop in to and once you enter the area go left and you will come up on a
small underground bridge spanning a gap, go over it. Go to the very far end
of this room and you can exit towards the right via a piston. Take the only
exit possible after dropping down from this piston and pass through this area
and you will find another piston at the end of this area. Activate it and go
down. In this next area you will find a large enemy with two shields one on
the left of it and one on the right of it, use your weapons, take out the
shields and then the enemy. Jump down into this next area and collect
whatever weapons you want there is a nice large arsenal here, and when your
ready go to the center part of this area and you will see four large pillars

7.10.2) Buyer's Remorse
***********************
Objectives:
-Make your way through the Flood-infested Wall.
Once your platform docks you will be greated by another one of those large
shielded robots, along with many flood. The flood are probably the highest
threat to you since they can jump great distances, have strong attacks, are
fast, and are hard to take down, so focus on them first. Jump over a half
wall that you will see surrounding the perimmeter of this area circle this
area to the right and you will come up on another piston, active it and drop
down. This area has a high flood concentration so be careful and deal with
them quickly. After passing through this small area you will come upon yet
another piston activate it and go down. Take the one and only exit from the
piston area and you will see a shotgun on the ground, grab it you will need
it to deal with the flood. After passing through that tough section you will
come up on a piston towards the end, activate it and drop down. Do not get
to close to the edge in this area or else you will fall off and die, but you
will be fighting one of those large mechanical shielded creatures so be ready
but you also need to focus your attacks towards the flood so they do not
destroy you, so the best strategy for this area is to let the mechanical
creature stay around as long as possible to help you fight the flood it will
focus on them more than it will you. After everyone is taken care you you
will see a piston in this area, activate it and follow it down. You will
find yourself in a dark and foggy room these visual impairments will prove to
be quite tough so be ready. On the far side of this room is a bridge much
like the one you saw before, cross it, and at the other end of this small
area is another bridge just like it, cross that one too. Exit this area to
the far left via a piston, activate it and drop down. Activate another
piston and drop down. On the opposite side of this area you will see
yet another piston, activate it and drop down, this area has an Enery Sword
in it and Enery Swords are extremely effective against flood, grab it and use
it to your advantage. After clearing this room, yep you guessed it activate
the piston in this area and drop down. Run towards the closure at the end of
the drop off.

a tunnel with many pillars in it. It will put you into an area with many
flying enemies and an enemy tank. You should see an opening in the building
on the lower level, go in and it will have many iron sections in it all
clustered close together. Once in the cave make a left, then a right, and
another right up the slope. Hold postion for a while and let the enemies
fight for a while so they will save you a bit of work, once your ready head

******************
Objectives:
-Locate the Prophet of Truth and the Index.
-Rescue the Marines being held in the detention-block.
-Follow the Prophet of Truth to the far tower.
-Stop the Prophet of Truth from boarding his Phantom.
From the start you will initially be attacked by Ceremonial Brutes, take them
out and after you kill all the enemies that come into this area and then run
near where the Prophets were at the start and the floor will open up, be
careful do not get caught on it when it opens or else you will fall and die,
but after it opens an elevator will come up and there will be some enemies on
it, kill them. Kill all that attack you some will be on the ground level
and others will be shooting at you from the level above. After killing all
the enemies the door opposite where the Prophets were will open, go through
it and pass around the object blocking your exit on the other side and kill
the enemies in this room, one will be firing from a ground mounted plasma
cannon. Pass through the door on the other side you should see a couple
Ceremonial Brutes, some grunts and a few jackals, but none the less you can
handle them. On the far side Cortana will tell you that she is going to
reverse the grav lift for you to jump down into it. When it opens, jump.
You will be met by some Jackals and Grunts, but not a big deal. Pass through
the door and around the barrier in the way cross through this room and pass
through the door on the opposite side. Make a left and pass through this
area, there are no branching paths so just head straight through. You will
come to a circular open area that has an upper and lower level, clear out all
of the enemies here. After clearing it out jump to the lower level and go
into the central pillar and the floor will open, jump in and you will land
behind a Brute take him out. Now quietly clear out the top floor, I
recommend melee attacking your enemies if they are sleeping it will conserve
ammo and the others will not be woken up. After the top floor is clear run
around until you see a grav lift in the floor, ride it down to the middle
level and quietly clear this floor. Now ride the grav lift to the bottom
level, clear off this floor quietly. On the right side of this floor is an
open door, go down the slope and through the next door. You will come up on
some patrolling enemies, you can take them out quietly or by shooting them,
and you will have cleared the room of enemies and the Marines will come out.
Exit the way you came in to that area and take the grav lift up to the middle
level, be careful there are more guards. Run to the left side of this area
and there will be another open door, go down it and clear this area of
enemies and the other marines will be saved, thats all the marines. Exit the
way you came into that room. Exit this area entirely by taking the central
grav lift out. There is one unlocked door on the level you are put out on
to so take that exit and kill all the enemies that come out. Once you have
managed to clear the next room go through the door on the opposite side.
Pass through the next area clearing out all the enemies you come upon, and
take the exit on the opposite side. Pass through the door and then the door
on the left. Pass around the barrier and kill the two Hunters in this room.
Pass through the door on the opposite side of this room. As you exit this
door two enemies will be fighting, kill them and jump into this area and kill
all the enemies you come upon. The exit to this area is opposite of its
entrance. Pass down the slope and through the door at the far end. Get on
the blue circle and it will send you to the opposite side. Circle this
building either way you want to and on the opposite side there is a fight
between some Brutes and some Elites let them fight for a while and then go in
and finish up whoever is left. On the opposite side exit either to the left
or to the right, they will lead you to the same place. Upon passing left or
right you will come up on a bridge, cross it by stepping on the blue circle.
On the other side you will be greeted by a Brute so be ready. After taking
the Brute out pass through the door in front of where you got off the
crossing and make a left through the door then a right through the door.
Kill all the enemies and then cross over the bridge and through the door on
the opposite side. Make a right pass through the door, make a left, pass
through the door, and step down into the blue circle to take you to the other
side of the structure. Pass around the structure and on the other side kill
the brutes and the grunts. Now pass around this next structure and step on
the blue circle to get to the other side. Head straight and pass through
the door infront of you. As soon as you walk in you will be ambushed by some
brutes, kill them and pass through the doors at the top of the slope. From
that exit get over to the other side and pass through those doors. Work your
way through this area it is basically a straight forward area, but it is
full of enemies with camo so just take it slow. Pass through the lower level
exit in this area. You will pass through another door and find yourself
