-Does the MA5D have different Magazines Sizes cause Halo 5 has a 36 Round Magazine.

One detail has been bugging me recently.

At the end of Halo 3, Forward Unto Dawn was sheared in half as the portal to Voi collapsed. According to 343 Guilty Spark, the Ark is 2^18 (262,000) light years from the galactic center. The Milky Way itself is only 120,000 (approx) light years across. Given the ark is 2x Milky Ways away from the galactic core, how did MC and Cortana manage to float their way back into the galaxy in 4 years?

And just for the hell of it:
Is there any art of Margaret Parangosky, possibly my favourite ONI character ever!

I can answer this for ya.

The Forward Unto Dawn made it through a quite a bit of the portal intact. But, when the portal couldn't sustain itself any longer, it tore the aft section (With Chief and Cortana) off, while the front part (Arby's part) managed to narrowly escape the closing slipspace vacuum back to Earth, I believe. I hope this clarifies this!

1: If the Flood is not in Halo 5's campaign then is it possible to see them return through DLC for Warzone and if not will they ever reappear?

2: How customizable is Warzone? Can we expect other variants than Core Defense and Tug of War, maybe CTF or Assault?

3: Will we ever see the Brutes and Drones again, either in Halo 5 or future Halo's?

(Please ignore any prior posts I have made in this thread, I wish this to be anew. Thanks.)

-What is the designation for the Covenant drop pods used during Halo: Reach (The multi-troop ones) and Halo 2-3 (The single-occupant ones)

-What is the designation for the Spartan Assault machine pistol (automatic pistol)

-Was the Rhino tank specifically designed from the ground-up to be a platform for the Zeus cannon, or was it originally a conventional self-propelled artillery unit chosen to host the Zeus prototype? What was the designation for the Zeus cannon, for that matter? The Zeus cannon appears to have very little operational difficulty in Halo Wars, why was it's legacy never seen again, despite it's astounding success? Were all the prototypes and data/ schematics destroyed, was it deemed too costly or was it simply put on the backburner in favour of energy shielding and other technologies in the war?

In Halo 2 and Halo 3 we see the Orbital Insertion Pod and Halo: Reach showed the Heavy Orbital Insertion Pod.

-What is the designation for the Spartan Assault machine pistol (automatic pistol)The M6 Machine Pistol is seen in Spartan Assault's simulators.

With the reveal of the new Forerunner character "Warden Eternal, Keeper of the Domain," I think lots of people have been wondering who he is, and what role he's going to play in Halo 5. I had a theory that the Warden is actually Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting, due to the names matching up.

1- the domain clearly didn't dissapear after the halos fired on the milky way, is this because it is like a gigantic network? i mean does it reach even beyond path kethona for example?
2-what happened to the star roads at path kethona, were they used by the flood in the war against forerunners, or did they stay there?
3-did the halo that was pointing toward path kethona during the fight at the greater ark actually reach it?

What happened to Glory of a Far Dawn and Splendid Dust of Ancient Suns after the events of Halo: Cryptum?

Is the HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark II (the mech seen on the map Adrift) in use by 2558?

How did Spartan Black Team get off of Line Installation 1-4?
Who is the captain of the ONI Prowler Alladin, from Spartan OPs and what is his background?
What is the current status of the planet Ganymede?
