Beachhead is the thirteenth level of the real-time strategy game, Halo Wars.
Description
After Prof. Anders escapes from the top of the Apex, Sergeant John Forge rescues her from 3 flood Infection forms. They, escorted by a couple of Marine squads, head off to a nearby LZ where a Pelican arrives to pick up Anders and bring her to safety. Sergeant Forge is then tasked to capture and take control of 4 other nearby Covenant bases. Due to the difficulty of this task, Red Team Spartans arrive onto the ground via HEVs to assist the Sergeant. Also with the help of a newly built UNSC firebase, they complete their task with difficulty and success.
Hints
To be able to get the Beaming with Pride achievement, you will have to get a scarab even though it is normally impossible, but there is a unoccupied Scarab to the west of the map which was abandoned because of the Flood. You are able to occupy it with a Spartan and it will also serve very useful on the assault on the other bases.
Trivia
- Unlike most levels, it is possible for a Spartan to board a specific unmanned Scarab in this level. It was captured by the Flood, and as Sergeant Forge said, "The Covenant left the keys in it". Killing 25 enemy units with this Scarab will unlock the Beaming with Pride Achievement. Strangely enough, said Scarab is also labeled a "Super" Scarab, like the one that was destroyed in the Seventh level. Despite having this label, the Scarab seen in this mission lacks the qualities that the Scarab seen prior had possessed, and is identical to a "regular" Scarab.
- After Anders teleports away from the Apex, in the Cutscene, Flood Swarms can be seen in the background before the Infection Forms appeared.
- It is possible to finish the level without Anders going to the LZ, but this makes it much harder.
