We see Phaetons in the Halo 5 campaign, the first sight of a vehicle created by the forerunners that they most likely created to combat the flood. But that can’t be it. The flood was an issue that led to massive innovations in weaponry created by forerunners in an effort to effectively combat it, various types of the same weapon, AIs, Knights, Crawlers, etc. but I have a feeling having piloted vehicles was just another way to fight back the flood. Should we expect to see Ghost-esque single-pilot vehicles or even forerunner tanks in Halo 6? Or should we accept that the forerunners only designed one vehicle to be used exclusively for combat purposes?
The closet analogue to a tank is the War Sphinx/Seeker for single pilots and the Sentinel Tank which is AI based.
All three are too OP for the games.
Someday, Jason Jones’ idea will finally become a reality.
Awesomeness will ensue.
The thing is the Forerunners were so much more advanced than us. They would logically be able to create tanks which would bw impossible to destroy with our weapons and could destroy easily any army we throw against it. I don’t like how forerunners are nerfed for gameplay purposes. I would like a canon reasoning for the weakness of promethen forces.
But hey, I could see a Sphinx as a Warzone Firefight boss. It MIGHT be a fair match against a fully armed squad of Spartans.

War Sphinxes tear apart continents, wipe out entire cities, can fly fast enough to keep up with Forerunner/Ancient Human space ships, and rag doll space ships…
All of the Spartan IIs, Spartan IIIs, and the Spartan IVs ganging up on one while armed with Forerunner weaponry would still end with a victory for the Sphinx.
There’s a concept art about a forerunner tank, so I think in Halo 6 we could see it. Here is the link

That’s actually really sick! I saw they were working on concept art for a War Sphinx they were thinking of adding into Halo 5, guess they knew how OP it wold be lol
Seems like a good idea. Hopefully 343 puts foreunner tanks in halo 6

To be fair sentinels has always been pretty fragile too.
Wow, that looks so sick, Pelux94. I have to agree with Juhoxxx, it’s kinda lame to nerf a super advanced warrior faction for gameplay, but I understand why they have to do it.
I would like to see a Forerunner tank like the one in the link, that is essentially a boss in campaign and warzone. It wouldn’t be usable by players though. I’m thinking more difficult and complex to take down then a scarab. It could be hijacked and driven in the campaign perhaps, using it to blast through an enemy armada that would be hopeless to do on foot.
