You find Spirit of Fire infested with flood and no human alive except a slow and dying Captain Cutter being turned into a proto-gravemind
That'd be rubbish. They've dealt with Flood in the past, and managed it alright. I don't think a single spore got inside the ship.
A wasted opportunity in the actual game Halo Wars, really. The Flood never seemed very threatening in the game. There should have been a cutscene showing just one infection form racing through the ship and infecting an entire section of it before being jettisoned out and destroyed.
It would have given an air of menace to them in the game.
Playing on Legendary and having your only useful unit on Legendary(ODSTs) being transformed in seconds from spore clouds, certainly did the job. And the god damn flying forms were monsters too. The nightmare that was Legendary did the Flood justice in Halo Wars for sure. You didn't need any cutscenes, just gameplay on Legendary.
