Sentinel factory

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

The Sentinel shop, also known as a Sentinel factory, is an underground variant of the Forerunner Sentinel manufacturing facility, capable of constructing Aggressor Sentinels and Super Sentinels. Two such facilities were on Harvest, and another was within the shield world Etran Harborage.[1]

Gameplay

  • Sentinel: A flying Forerunner unit, the Sentinel will inflict corrosive damage with a dangerous beam weapon.
    • Cost: Population 1, Tech level 1, Supplies 100
    • Purchase cooldown: 15 seconds
  • Super Sentinel: The Forerunner Super Sentinel has the unique ability to slow down enemy units while preemping their attacks.
    • Cost: Population 2, Tech level 2, Supplies 250
    • Purchase cooldown: 30 seconds

The Sentinel shop appears exclusively in the Halo Wars Skirmish levels Repository and Glacial Ravine. Unlike other bonus buildings, the building cannot be garrisoned. Any player with a unit nearby may access its menu and purchase Sentinel units, which can then be added to their forces. The Sentinels are produced instantly and must go through a cooldown timer before being able to produce a new unit, much like the UNSC leaders' Support Abilities.

The visually-similar Protector plant is a smaller Sentinel shop that produces Protector Sentinels instead of Aggressor Sentinels and Super Sentinels.
