===Early Relic Approach draft===
An early draft of the "tear sheet" (a high-level design document outlining concepts and ideas) for the level [[Relic Approach]] showcases a fairly different design intent for the level. Rather than the layout in the final game, the level was originally drafted to be set within a canyon carved into the surface of [[Harvest]] by [[Covenant]] [[excavation beam]]s during the planet's [[glassing]]. Midway through the level, a UNSC [[cruiser]] would crash onto Harvest.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halowars.com/news/devblog/archive/2009/06/30/The-Birth-of-a-Halo-Wars-Mission.aspx|Site=Official Halo Wars Community Site|Page=The Birth of a Halo Wars Mission|D=11|M=09|Y=2011}} In the final game, this was removed - though wreckage from the {{Class|Marathon|heavy cruiser}} {{UNSCShip|Prophecy}} does appear on the Harvest levels as background scenery. The story of UNSC ''Prophecy'' would later play a prominent role in the ''[[Halo Wars: Genesis]]'' comic and the non-canon [[Spirit of Fire Archives]]; short stories written by ''Halo Wars'' lead writer [[Graeme Devine]] to immerse himself in the ''Halo'' universe during development.

During the [[Repairs]] mission of the game, the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} comes face to face with a [[Covenant]] {{Pattern|Sinaris|heavy destroyer}} named ''[[Proclamation's Tithe]]'', which begins bombarding the ship with its broadside [[Plasma cannon (starship)|plasma cannons]]. Originally, ''Halo Wars'' was intended to have a level set after Repairs in which the forces of the ''Spirit of Fire'' would conduct a boarding action with the intent of destroying the ship's power core. Some information remains in the game files of ''Halo Wars'', and a few pieces of concept art released online showcase concepts for the ship's geometry.
