Halo Wars Legendary Gold Campaign - Mission 9 The Flood

Skip cutscenes to 00:20 Halo Wars Definitive Edition is a remaster of the Halo Wars 1 released in 2009 exclusively for the Xbox 360. Halo Wars Definitive Edition has been released in 20th of April 2017. Halo Wars is basically a prequel to the events in other Halo games, set up in the year 2531, 20 years before Halo Reach. Opposite to the other games in the series, this is a real time strategy where we take part in the war against Covenant as the Captain Cutter of Spirit of Fire or Sergeant Forge. In this series of playthroughs I try to finish the game on the Legendary difficulty, meanwhile trying to complete all the bonus objectives together with picking up the Skulls and Black Boxes around the map. All you have to do in this mission is to get Hornets. They are basically the best option because of their speed - if you micro them, you can also dodge Flood Launcher's projectiles. Going ground might be taking too much time, also Skull is in place unreachable for them. You have to build your economy, get to the 4th tech level and then train Hornets. If you want to finish this mission as fast as possible here is a small guide. Build your Reactor first and train one Warthog - then build Supply Pads. Send Warthog immediately to the Spartans, after it, place them west to the Gravemind. There is one Flood Launcher that can be destroyed easily. There, your Spartans will be mostly out of range for Flood units and Launchers. It's doable on Legendary but it's very hard, you can finish the mission in less than 5 minutes.
