It goes in endless waves and you can customize it by adding skulls .

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

Here you go. Read up.

Group is Soldiers of War, ask for invite if you're interested

I'd imagine it would be similar to how GOW is set up, with it's own unique twists into it to make it feel like Halo

I think its explained in the ODST thingey in Bungie's projects under Firefight. I forgot where I read/heard it but It was honestly too complicated sounding for me to bother to remember. I think each set is made up of 4 waves or vice versa- god knows how many rounds there are though. I forget.

So according to that, from my understanding:

There are 5 waves of enemies. After the 5th wave, you start a new round. There are three rounds in a set.

I think Bungie said before that you get new lives and med packs every set, but I could be mistaken.
Chieftains appear at the end of every round I think it was.

Yes, that is exactly right, on all accounts, from what I understand.
