Ghost variants on Reach? Or similar Covenant vehicle variants?

Reach was invaded by a huge force, and lord knows they had all kinds of hardware to pummel the humans with.

Brutes did not have a huge presence on Reach and may not make a showing at all, and this is mainly because of the holy nature of their mission. They are after an insanely important artifact buried under Reach. Thus this is a mission charged to the deadly and revered hands of the Sanghelli. The annihilation of all human presence is a sub-mission to this.

So, I doubt we'll see much Brute hardware on Reach. But the Elites and Covenant gotta crush Reach with something. So what's it gonna be? Ghosts, Banshees, and Wraiths aren't gonna cut it, and this game is supposed to up the ante anyhow.

Some stuff I'd like to see: Ghost variant with quad-plasma guns and no boost, Banshee variant with beam weapon instead (similar to Sentinel beams), Wraith variant for anti-personnel that sprays bursts of needles that are deadly to infantry but don't hurt vehicles much, and are only short to mid range.

And any fan of Halo knows the fanbase has asked for flyable troop transports like Pelicans and Phantoms. Sure, it might fit into only one gametype on matchmaking but what the hey, throw it in Campaign too and we'd all have a good ol' time.

An ungodly amount of Spaceships and Scarabs.

Space warfare?

All our dreams come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
The friend in my adversity I shall always cherish most. I can better trust those who helped to relieve the gloom of my dark hours than those who are so ready to enjoy with me the sunshine of my prosperity.

Epic scene from the book where we nuke an Armada.

I want it. NAO.

For the last time people, no Phantoms in this one. It's the Spirit dropships from Halo 1 and Halo Wars

Mythical Group

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

You know, no one said there'd be larger scale warfare, we just assumed it automatically. It makes sense, but still...

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

I would like to see the return of the Spectre, and Shadow for one thing...
