We learned the covenant dance…now get ready for the banished boogie.
The Banished are a remnant faction that have made it clear. THEY ARE NOT THE COVENANT. And not being the Covenant gives them LOTS of freedom to switch up the hoops that their prey have to jump through to live another day… which means exciting new Banished ranks, weapons, and vehicles to switch up the sandbox, and all of this gives us niche ranks in the Banished like the Grenadiers, which are units in Halo Wars 2, and might have a place in Infinite to fill a more specialized role, which is the use of area-of-effect weapons. If you have never played HW2, Brute Grenadiers launch globs of nuclear waste in the target’s direction. The waste turns into a hazardous puddle when it hits the floor, harming anything that walks on it. This is perfect in Infinite, as no enemy fills this role, and there are ways to get around the pools of waste so the Grenadiers don’t ruin the game, like the grappling hook, jumping, and sprint. The Grenadiers are perfect for switching up the sandbox in a fun way IF DONE PROPERLY. I truly hope Grenadiers will be in Infinite and I also hope you liked my idea. Thanks!
