When the level begins, you are prompted to build | The second level of [[Halo Wars]] takes place on the reestablished [[Alpha Base]] that you opened in the [[Alpha Base (Halo Wars level)| Last Level]]. You now have the opportunity to build the Base from scratch. | ||
When the level begins, you are prompted to build a [[Firebase]]. Simply highlight the lighted area and select [[Firebase]] from the building menu. Once you build the Firebase, [[Serina]] will tell you to build a [[UNSC Supply Pad|Supply Pad]] which will produce resources to allow you to be able to produce more useful upgrades. Choose an empty building plot and select supply pad. Once again, you will be asked to build another building, a [[barracks]]. The barracks will allow you to train infantry units. After you build a barracks, you will be asked to train five [[marine]] squads. Simply select the barracks and highlight marine, and select it five times. After you train your squads, you will have the option to build structures on your own. You may want to upgrade to a [[fortress]] which will give you two more spaces to build on. Keep building more structures until you are comfortable with what you have. I do recommend building a Vehicle Depot, but after that it is up to you. | |||
After you train a few infantry units and create a few [[Warthog|Warthogs]] and [[M808B Main Battle Tank|Scorpions]], you will be ready to do what the mission was for, proceeding toward the relic that [[John Forge|Forge]] spotted. Select all of your units and follow the blue arrow. Once you get to the large field with [[Covenant]] guards, it's time to think strategically. | After you train a few infantry units and create a few [[Warthog|Warthogs]] and [[M808B Main Battle Tank|Scorpions]], you will be ready to do what the mission was for, proceeding toward the relic that [[John Forge|Forge]] spotted.

If you lost some of your units, you can go back at any time and train more units. Make sure your army is at the maximum capacity, or wherever you are comfortable at.

*Establish all 4 turrets and upgrade them with the anti-air bonus as soon as possible. This will counter enemy Spirits attempting to drop troops in front of the base. | |||
*On higher difficulty modes, like Heroic or Legendary, assaulting the Covenant base is much easier should you have a few Cobras locked down and programmed to hit the structure. | |||
*As with the first mission, make sure Forge's Warthog survives the enemy encounters. It is vital to complete this level. | |||
*Finding the 2 lost Warthogs and securing the landing zone will provide you with free units. You can also over-cap your population if this objective is tackled. | |||
*When assaulting the Covenant base, use the weaker units to flank it from the side and using Scorpions from your main base to attack it head-on. Upon destroying it, create a second firebase to place more pressure on the enemy when you hit the detonator. | |||
