Okay,so before I move forward with my thoughts on this,I realize that there is a complete edition of Halo Wars 2 meant to be final with ALL DLC,but I've had...an epiphany lol. So,being that there are currently theories out there that perhaps,just maybe we've already seen a Halo 6 trailer (via what was supposed to have been the announce trailer for Halo 5) and the fact that it seems likely that Halo Wars is now tied into the main story,I had a thought: What if 343I and Creative Assembly were to forge one last DLC similar in scope to ATN? Now what I'm getting at here is that this could be a direct lead-in to Halo 6 as a kind of preparation that would also help their marketing campaign,but give us something as well. In theory,this DLC would see the crew of the Spirit Of Fire slowly losing it's foothold on the Ark to a growing mix of Banished forces in one corner,the Flood,and (spoiler alert) per the novel Halo:Hunters In The Dark,what appears to be some form of Promethean forces as well. At least the soldiers,as they are referred to in the book as "armigers" so I would presume. Just as Captain Cutter and company are about to get cornered by the overwhelming series of threats at the end of the mini campaign,they receive a faint transmission and just when the SOF looks totally doomed,they receive some familiar backup in the form of the UNSC Infinity,which was last seen attempting to evade Cortana and her guardians. After a series of random jumps,they arrive at the Ark,possibly via the same nature that pulled the SOF there,only to see another conflict erupting and as the two ships join forces,not counting Infinity's compliment of ten or so frigates,we are left with another major cliffhanger,because Halo,that's why haha. This DLC would include two new leaders hailing from the UNSC Infinity. Perhaps a Spartan four and Roland? I'm sure I'll catch flak if I say Palmer? Lol anyways you get the idea. Thoughts?
