Vanguard
Vanguard is a Halo 3 Meta-Game Achievement. It is unlocked when the player earns 50,000 points while playing the meta-game on The Covenant. This Achievement gives 10 Gamerpoints to the player.
It is represented by a blue circle with a coiling dragon, the symbol for a canceled Bungie product, Phoenix. A vanguard is the foremost section in an army.
It is relatively easy to earn this achievement, due to its long nature, but you will die many times along the way. Turn on Thunderstorm, Famine and Tough Luck skulls on normal and you should get 50,000 points, if you do it in time.
