Arbiter1000:Ah problem with stealing a Scarab, lekegolo worms control the scarab so it can not just controlled be anyone , also when you kill the Lekegolo worms you kill the scarab as well so its impossible to have spartans Hi-jack it.
Unless it has a crew of Elites a la Halo 2.
If we can jack it there, we can jack in Halo Wars, if the story requires it.
It doesn't. If you read the Covenant Page and look at the Scarab, it has a Lekegolo core. Which leaves us floundering as to how we can get a Scarab, when the Covenant wouldn't even think, in their wildest fantasies of lending us a scarab, and it is piloted by the Lekegolo.

Sorry to rain on everyone's parade, but it is impossible to jack a scarab. You do get to control one in chapter 13, but only after you find it deserted and inert. And it will be piloted by none other than one of your three spartans that you get!

I wouldnt bet on the UNSC and Coies teaming up in any way due to the Hell bent Arbiter killing us.So im sticking with the UNSC (prolly Spartans) stealing a scarab.

But as far as flood appearing on skirmish maps....we dont know. I highly doubt they will be on there, but they could make small areas infected with flood just to give the map a different kind of feeling.

Plus, Do the flood appear in skirmish as like little flood lairs placed around the map, or is it only in campaign?

Serantir — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 14:12:59 GMT

Two things,

One:The 13 mission ACH im pretty sure means you STEAL a scarab

2: Does any know if you unlock things for getting the achivwements?

Arbiter1000:
It seems that UNSC and Covenant might team up to fight Flood in the campaign since in one mission you need to use a scarab.

Or you just capture one :/

Here's another question how do you think you unlock the timeline

is it achieved through just betting the game or could they be from completing side missions?

and on that note how do you think you might achieve the skulls?
