User:DARKSTORM99/HALO WARS 2: FORGES RETURN

Introduction
This is my attempt at a mock Halo Wars 2 poster since the game more than likely will never be made, so just for fun- what if SGT Forge survived and was beamed away by an AI just prior to the destruction of the shield world as 343 Guilty Spark once did for Master Chief half way through the library level in Halo CE. The story begins for Forge as he awakens in a formless room surrounded by darkness and lit from above, his wounds are treated, he attempts to radio the Spirit of Fire but there's no answer, a disembodied voice says “Hello”, a monitor appears and explains the situation, that the flood has escaped the shield world's destruction and it needs a 'reclaimer' to help contain the outbreak, so (similar to the Arbiter in Halo 2) a silver elliptical object descends from the shadows revealing the combat skin of a forerunner, so Forge dons the armor and begins the next chapter of halo wars, later he would rendezvous with the SOF and its crew fighting the flood and possibly the Covenant.

Story
I was thinking either follow on straight from the end of halo wars and what happens to Forge or reveal how Forge's story should begin then switch perspective to the Spirit Of Fire a few weeks later when Serena wakes the captain about something she discovered eg another halo or forerunner installation and we see what Forge has become in that time.

Game
For the game idea, unit construction could involve Forerunner structures that could build Forge controlled units/ sentinels that could combine with his armor to form a power armor or other vehicles, tanks, ships and weapons, the more sentinels you have the larger the configured form would be. Forge would be battling the flood throughout most of the story and finally meet up with the Spirit of Fire in the end.

Location
Ideas for the location would be a surviving forerunner dreadnought(possibly flood controlled), an abandoned weapons testing facility/Research Facility, perhaps another halo or all of the above.
