I'd like to see the Spirit of Fire alluded to. It'd be strange seeing the cast of Halo Wars in-engine though, because we're used to them as CGI.

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.

But when would the infection form had gotten on the ship? The only chance they had they never breached the airlocks.

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.

I'd love that! It could maybe be a source of UNSC weapons and vehicles we could use throughout the campaign.

But it would all be old stuff. like 25 years before Halo: CE

Didn't 343 say they didn't have any plans for the Spirit of Fire at Halofest or something?
