The ''' | The '''methane refinery''' is a [[Covenant]] structure.{{Ref/Level|Id=hw|HW|Relic Approach}} | ||
==Design details== | |||
As its name suggests, the methane refinery likely refines [[methane]] into canisters for the use of [[Unggoy]] troops. They are often deployed with large methane storage tanks.{{Ref/Reuse|hw}} | |||
== | ==History== | ||
Outside the [[Relic (location)|relic]] on [[Harvest]], the [[Covenant]] set up a methane refinery. In [[2531#February|February, 2531]], a [[unidentified Spartan-II|Spartan-II]] fought 25 Covenant soldiers at that methane refinery. The Spartan killed [[seven]] Covenant soldiers, but was quickly killed by the [[Sangheili]] [[Ustaf 'Nbekee]]. As a war prize, the [[Unggoy]] under 'Nbekee's command were allowed to play games with the Spartan's helmet.{{Ref/Site|Id=HWLS|URL=http://halo.xbox.com/halowars/index.html?fbid=0eK_L23l9WQ|Site=halo.xbox.com|Page=Halo Wars Launch Site|Detail=(Defunct)|D=12|M=8|Year=2010|NoArchive=Yes|LocalArchive=Halo Wars Launch Site}} Later, at the same methane refinery site, UNSC forces led by [[Sergeant]] [[John Forge]] from [[Alpha Base (Harvest)|Alpha Base]] launched an assault and destroyed the methane refinery before they arrived at the relic.{{Ref/Reuse|hw}} | |||
==In-game information== | |||
Two Methane Refineries appear on the ''[[Halo Wars]]'' level [[Relic Approach]]. One of the optional objectives on the level is to destroy both methane refineries as well as the large cylindrical storage tanks in the surrounding area. Destruction of the refineries removes the Covenant's ability to send in dropships. Destroying the smaller methane canisters scattered around the level unlocks the [[Endless Fun]] achievement. | |||
