Beachhead (Halo Wars level): Difference between revisions

After [[Ellen Anders|Prof. Anders]] escapes from the top of the Apex, Sergeant [[John Forge]] rescues her from 3 Flood Infection forms. They, escorted by a couple of [[Marine]] squads, head off to a nearby LZ where a [[Pelican]] arrives to pick up Anders and bring her to safety. Sergeant Forge is then tasked to capture and take control of 4 other nearby Covenant bases. Due to the difficulty of this task, [[Red Team]] [[Spartan II]]s arrive onto the ground via HEVs to assist the Sergeant. Also with the help of a newly built UNSC firebase, they complete their task with difficulty and success. While banshees fly over your bases often, the Covenant have left a Scarab because it was contaminated by the Flood. You have an option to kill the Flood (a very easy task) and you can then get a Spartan to control the Scarab which would normally be impossible as the Scarab is controlled by Lekgelo worms.

''Scene fades in on Anders, who is awaking still in her stasis beam prison on the Apex. In the background, the Arbiter, flanked by two [[Zealot]] Elites, approaches her. The Arbiter is dragging one of his Energy swords along the floor.''

''The Arbiter lifts her hand above the holographic, spherical console, which reacts by spinning, and the stopping to reveal five highlighted hexagonal "buttons", upon which the Arbiter places Anders' hand.  In response to human touch, the control console begins to emit a steady beam, which terminates in a flash as the once dormant structures surrounding the Apex platform begin to slowly unfold and awaken from their millennia of inactivity, revealing themselves to be advanced Forerunner starships.  Staring up at the unraveling fleet in awe, the Arbiter releases his grip on Anders.  The two other Elites which had accompanied him share the same reaction.  The several honor guards leave their posts, to better behold the spectacle of the unfolding fleet. The Arbiter lifts his fists into the air, and begins to preach charismatically.''
