| | '''''Shield World''''' is the tenth level of [[Halo Wars]] <ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qId2FJ5RPho</ref>. The level is set on the [[Shield World (Halo Wars)|same planet]] as the previous mission, against [[Flood|the Flood]]. |
|
| |
|
| '''''Shield World''''' is the tenth [[campaign]] level of ''[[Halo Wars]]''.
| | == Summary == |
| | The main mission is to rescue three different teams by killing all the Flood in the way between the [[Station|Firebase]] and the units. Team Alpha will reward you with a [[Grizzly|Grizzly tank]], Team Bravo rewards you with an [[Elephant]], and Team Charlie will reward you with three [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]]. You can rescue them in any order, but when you try to rescue the last group, the [[Dropship 77-Troop Carrier|Pelican]] takes damage, and is ordered to break off. The remaining units say they'll make their way to the base to be picked up there. The normal time limit is 18 minutes, but a side mission, which gives you access to the special [[Gremlin]] unit that involves placing Gremlins in different corners of the map will buy you more time (about 22 minutes for all four of them.) |
|

|
| Rescuing [[Alpha Platoon]] will reward the player with a [[M850 Grizzly|Grizzly tank]], [[Bravo Platoon]] rewards the player with an [[Elephant]], and [[Charlie Platoon]] will reward them with three [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]] of the [[Red Team]]. The normal time limit is 18 minutes, but a side mission, which gives the player access to the special [[XRP12 Gremlin|Gremlin]] unit involves placing Gremlins to disable pylons generating the field that pulls the ''Spirit of Fire'' inside the structure. The pylons are located in different corners of the map will buy the player more time (about 22 minutes for all four of them).
| | ==Objectives== |
| | * Clear Evacuation Flight Paths. |
| | * Get Charlie Platoon to the Landing Zone. |
|
| |
|
| If the player shut down every pylon in the level with Gremlins, they will be rewarded with "[[The Procrastinator]]" [[achievement]] and 5 [[Gamerscore]].
| | ===Walkthrough=== |
| | You begin with a Station, a marine and flamethrower units, a pair of Scorpion tanks and hornet VTOLs. Begin by building one supply pad and one reactor, upgrade that supply pad and build a second supply pad. Send a squad to the right side of the base and you will find a claimable reactor, once you claim it, upgrade to a fortress, build a vehicle depot, build one more supply pad and upgrade any supply pad that has not been improved yet. |
|
| |
|
| ==Summary==
| | Once you have this done, Serina should tell you about the pylon and send you a free Gremlin. Place the Gremlin near the pylon next to the claimed reactor; the EMP should give you an extra four minutes. |
| At the [[Apex Site]], the [[Prophet of Regret]] examines Professor [[Ellen Anders]] with amusement, noting how frail she appears and how little of a threat Anders appears to pose. Regret is further amused by Anders' demands to know why she is being held prisoner, but they are interrupted by a [[Sangheili]] with news that the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} is approaching the entrance portal to [[Trove|the]] [[shield world]]. The enraged [[Ripa 'Moramee|Arbiter]] orders the [[Hierarch]] returned to ''[[High Charity]]'' and for the human ship to be intercepted and destroyed.
| |
|
| |
|
| The ''Spirit of Fire'' holds station above an ocean that [[Serina]] tells Captain [[James Cutter]] is where Anders' transponder signal is coming from. As Serina runs a scan of the location, she suddenly begins muttering about "docking" and "cleansing" before announcing that Cutter won't like what's coming. The ocean splits down the middle, revealing an entrance tunnel that [[Sentinel]]s emerge from, scanning the ship. The ship begins to be pulled towards the tunnel with Serina unable to stop it and with people still on the planet. Cutter orders Serina to hold station for as long as she can and to recall their people on the surface.
| | Upgrade the Scorpion to Canister Shell and the Wolverine to Volley. Then, build turrets if you haven't yet. Once Canister shell and Volley have been upgraded, improve your reactor to four energy levels, and upgrade the Wolverine to two launchers. Build two scorpions, and as many [[Wolverine]]s as possible. Set their rally point near Charlie's position. When you have all Scorpions and Wolverines there, cryo bomb the left side and have your scorpions attack the left side and your Wolverines the right. |
|
| |
|
| The ''Spirit of Fire'' constructs a [[firebase]] near where [[Alpha Platoon|Alpha]], [[Bravo Platoon|Bravo]] and [[Charlie Platoon|Charlie]] platoons are pinned down by massive [[Flood]] forces, [[Red Team|Spartan Red Team]] trapped alongside Charlie platoon. With limited time until the ''Spirit of Fire'' gets pulled into the tunnel, Serina directs the ground forces to use [[XRP12 Gremlin|Gremlins]] on pylons in the area which disrupt the Forerunner tractor beam and buy her more time, though the Gremlin's EMP can't stop the tractor beam forever and can only slow it down. Despite heavy resistance, ground forces manage to clear the way for [[Pelican]]s landed at the firebase to pick up Alpha and Bravo platoons.
| | Once all the launchers are taken care of, have you units focus on the outer areas. There are a lot of Flood launchers in this level. Once Charlie has been rescued, the [[Spartan II]]s will stay and help. |
|
| |
|
| After UNSC ground forces clear the way for Charlie platoon and Red Team, a surge of Flood forces the evacuation Pelican back to the firebase. With no other choice and with their base under heavy Flood attack as well, Charlie platoon and the other UNSC ground forces make their way on foot back to the firebase where they are extracted by Pelican to the ''Spirit of Fire'' just in the nick of time, leaving the abandoned firebase to be overrun by the Flood forces.
| | Heal any damaged units and replace, any if needed. Send your forces to Bravo's position and cryo bomb it before your forces arrive, otherwise they will be frozen as well. The wolverine's volley ability can dispose of the launchers quickly. Once the site has been cleared, you will be told that you will have to take Bravo to the base on foot. Select all units and rally them at the base. To make the [[Elephant]] go slightly faster, have a Spartan commandeer it. Once the Elephant goes near the signal circle, Forge will welcome you back and the mission ends. |

| ''Scene pans upwards to the [[Apex Site]], with a [[Dextro Xur-pattern Spirit|Spirit dropship]] departing. [[Ellen Anders]] is imprisoned in a Forerunner [[Stasis field#Forerunner|stasis field device]]. The [[Prophet of Regret]] and the [[Ripa 'Moramee|Arbiter]] approach her.''
| | ===Optional Objectives=== |
|
| |
|
| *'''Prophet of Regret''': "This is her?" | | *Place Gremlin at Pylon (4). |
| | * Kill 350 Swarms (this will unlock the level's skull). |
|
| |
|
| *'''Ripa 'Moramee''': "Yes, [[Hierarchs|Hierarch]]. This is the one I observed."
| | The skull is located east of you base past the First Tower to a Plateau with covered with Flood Eggs it is in the center you can only get it by air. The black box is next to Bravo Platoon (the middle unit that needs to be rescued). |
|
| |
|
| *'''Prophet of Regret''': "Such a frail thing. You would hardly think them a threat."
| | ==Transcript== |
| | |
| *'''Professor Ellen Anders''': "I demand to know why I'm being held!"
| |
| | |
| *'''Ripa 'Moramee''': ''(laughs)'' "Demand?"
| |
| | |
| ''A [[Sangheili Zealot]] approaches the Arbiter.''
| |
| | |
| *'''Sangheili Zealot''': "Arbiter, a human ship has arrived and is closing in on the entrance portal-"
| |
| | |
| ''The Arbiter strikes the Zealot in anger, sending him flying across the platform.''
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Ripa 'Moramee''': "Get the Hierarch to ''[[High Charity]]''! Intercept that human ship and destroy it at once!"
| | ''Cutscene opens on the Apex, a Spirit dropship, drops off its passengers and departs. Anders is seen in some kind of stasis beam, Regret and the Arbiter approach her.'' |
|
| |
|
| ''The Arbiter walks off. Regret departs with his [[Sangheili Honor Guardsman|Honor Guards]]. Fades to black.'' | | '''Regret''': This is her? |
|
| |
|
| ''Fades in to the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}'s location, over an ocean. Cuts to the bridge. Sergeant [[John Forge]] and [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[James Gregory Cutter]] look out into the ocean.'' | | '''Arbiter''': Yes, Hierarch, this is the one I observed. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Sergeant John Forge''': "Nothing but ocean."
| | '''Regret''': (with false concern) Such a frail thing. You would hardly think them a threat. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Captain James Gregory Cutter''': "Are you sure this is it, Serina?"
| | '''Anders''': I demand to know why I'm being held! |
|
| |
|
| *'''[[Serina]]''': "Fairly sure. Initiating a deep scan... Docking, Cleansing...? That's not right. Captain, you are not going to like this."
| | '''Arbiter''': (laughing) Demand? |
|
| |
|
| ''The ocean below suddenly splits in two. The ''Spirit of Fire'' shakes and begins to descend. Cutter looks back.'' | | '''Zealot''': Arbiter, a Human ship has arrived and is closing in on the entrance portal- |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cutter''': "Serina!"
| | ''The Arbiter strikes the Zealot, sending him flying across the platform'' |
|
| |
|
| *'''Forge''': "Captain, we've got company!"
| | '''Arbiter''': Get the Hierarch to High Charity! Intercept that human ship and destroy it at once! |
|
| |
|
| [[File:HW1.png|thumb|300px|Cutter and Forge looking out the window.]]
| | ''The Arbiter walks off, Regret departs with his Honor Guards. Cutscene fades to the Spirit of Fire's location, over an ocean.'' |
| ''Forge points out to the hole in the middle of ocean. Several [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s approach the ''Spirit of Fire'', and fly around it for a moment. The ''Spirit of Fire'' is drawn into a docking and decontamination mechanism within the planet. The ship's position is tilted. Cutter and Forge climb their way to the back of the bridge.'' | |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cutter''': "All hands, engage! Serina, I've got troops out there still! Get them back on board now!"
| | '''Forge''': Nothing but ocean. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Serina''': "Captain, I can only hold this position a few minutes at the most."
| | '''Cutter''': Are you sure this is it, Serina? |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cutter''': "''Now'', Serina!"
| | '''Serina''': Fairly sure, initiating a deep scan. Docking, Cleansing? That's not right. Captain, you are not going to like this. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Serina''': "Recalling surface squads, so we can all die together. Aye, sir!"
| | ''The ocean below suddenly splits in two'' |
|
| |
|
| ''Cuts to black.'' | | '''Cutter''': Serina... |
|
| |
|
| '''{''In-Game Cutscene''}''' | | '''Forge''': Captain, we've got company! |
|
| |
|
| ''Scene pans from a Forerunner pylon firing a beam to groups of Marines around a [[M850 Grizzly|Grizzly tank]] firing at a group of Flood infection forms in front of them.'' | | ''Several Sentinels approach the Spirit of Fire, and fly around it for a moment, the Spirit of Fire is drawn into a docking and decontamination mechanism within the planet.'' |
|
| |
|
| *'''Serina''': "Three platoons inbound. Designating them [[Alpha Platoon|Alpha]], [[Bravo Platoon|Bravo]], and [[Charlie Platoon|Charlie]]."
| | '''Cutter''': All hands engage! Serina, I've got troops out there still! Get them back on board now! |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cutter''': "Red Team?"
| | '''Serina''': Captain, I can only hold this position a few minutes at the most. |
|
| |
|
| ''The area beyond the Flood infection forms is revealed to be occupied by numerous Flood structures and biomass. Large numbers of Flood swarms fly above that area.'' | | '''Cutter''': Now Serina! |
|
| |
|
| *'''Serina''': "They're with Charlie, sir. Ah, that could be a problem."
| | '''Serina''': Recalling surface squads, so we can all die together, aye, sir! |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cutter''': "We can't evac those trapped marines until the air is clear. Let's be about it, people."
| | ''{Gameplay}'' |
|

| ''Behind that Flood-infested area is a UNSC [[firebase]] being assembled, while being defended by two Scorpions, two Hornets, and several Marines. Three Pelican dropships land and hold their positions next to the base.'' | | '''Serina''': Three platoons inbound, designating them: Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie. |

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| ===Easter eggs===
| | *Even though it takes place on the same place the previous two levels took place on, it shares it name with the location itself, which would confuse players and make them think it is on a different location, as noticed by the blue-white color of the land. |
| * The [[Halo Wars skulls#Catch|Catch skull]] accessible after killing 350 Flood swarms, and can be found on the island in the southeast section of the map, which is only reachable by air units. | |
| * The [[Black Boxes|Black Box]] in this level is located behind Bravo Platoon.
| |
| ===Miscellaneous===
| |
| * The name of the beginning cutscene, "Open Sesame Part 2", is a reference to [[Relic Approach|the first time "open sesame" was said in ''Halo Wars'']], which is muttered by John Forge when he saw the Covenant opening the [[Relic]] on [[Harvest]].
| |
| * This is the first of the two levels in campaign in which Forge is not present in gameplay, the other being the last level, ''[[Escape (Halo Wars level)|Escape]]''. This is likely explained by narratively Forge being onboard the ''Spirit'' as depicted in the opening cutscene. Despite Forge's absence on the ground, in-game characters still referred the ground commander as "Forge" or "Sergeant".
