Honor Guard Wraith

Honor Guard Wraith The Honor Guard Wraith is a Covenant vehicle and also a special in-game item, included in the Halo Wars Limited Edition.

It is a more ornamental version of the standard Wraith, similar to the Flame Decal Warthog. The only difference it has from the regular Wraith is its appearance is different, as it has a paint scheme that appears similar to the Halo 2 Sangheili Honor Guard armor, hence the name (Honor Guard Wraith).

It can be activated in the skulls section on the pause menu while playing the game; it cannot be taken off until the game has ended. Unfortunately, only the stripes appear when using it in play. As such, you need to obtain the right player color in multiplayer in order for the design to look right.

Gameplay
The only difference between the wraith and the honor guard wraith is only aesthetic. They are driven by the experienced honor guard elites which technically would increase its combat stats, but in gameplay reason it is only aesthetic.
