Is anyone else hoping we’ll get the chance to play as the Prometheans in Halo Wars 2? I want to lead an army of Knights.
of course! ive wanted that since halo 4. But i also really would like the flood.
I want as many factions as possible
The only way that’ll happen is if HW2’s multiplayer takes place during the Reclaimer Trilogy.
I’m honestly hoping the Campaign and the Multiplayer will be two different experiences.
I’m not sure a Promethean faction would be available, hopefully a forerunner at least. I mean Halo Wars did take place way before Halo CE and also the Prometheans seemed to only occupy their own homeworld, never have they ever been seen on any other world I believe, I didn’t research much about the Prometheans. Even though they were on the composer, it exploded into dust and pieces, not to mention those knights cant teleport that far. I believe the only way there can be a Promethean faction is if the Spirit of Fire stumbles upon the home planet.
Lead an army of knights to get rekt. It would be cool though to have some other people to play as.

They were on a Halo in Spartan Strike.
It’s a very safe bet that there will be a Promethean faction
If it’s not in story I hope they would be a multiplayer faction and don’t forget rts games have a habit of having multiple stories from different times for all we know there will be a prometian campaign set in a different time period.
It would probably be quite fun! I wonder how they’d work with vehicles though.
Prometheans? Ewwwww no.
Sounds great but if the game is taking place straight after halo wars 1 (2531) then they shouldn’t be appearing at all unless its multi-player. Would be stupid since we never heard of Prometheans before and they suddenly started appearing in the time line.
Bad. -Yoink-. Idea.
It’s a great idea. I got yoinked by waypoint.

Not necessarily. Who says Prometheans were only on Requiem?
That would make for some cool animations, but I’d be more than okay if they stayed out of Halo Wars 2…

Probably heavy sentinels [or the vehicles from halo 5] we know that Prometheans have at least 5 vehicles in halo 5, with the only confirmed/shown one being the Pheaton

I imagine they would be multiplayer only, unless halo 5 takes place in 2552 onward [with the crew being in cryo for the entire time] it wouldnt be unreasonable for that to be the case
I think the real question is what the promethean unit list would look like
Assembler Sentinel [Production/Construction/Repair Unit]
Construction Sentinel [Production/Construction/Repair Unit]
Retriever Sentinel [Resource Collector]
Protector Sentinel [Light ‘Infantry’]
Shield Sentinel [Support Light ‘Infantry’]
Crawler [Light ‘Infantry’]
Crawler Alpha [Buff/Support Light ‘Infantry’]
Crawler Sniper [Long ranged Light ‘Infantry’]
Watcher [Support Light Infantry]
Sentinel [‘Infantry’]
Sentinel Major [Advanced ‘Infantry’]
Armiger [Infantry]
Armiger Captain [Buff/Support Infantry]
Knight [Heavy Infantry]
Knight Lancer [Heavy Scout Infantry]
Knight Commander [Heavy Buff/Support Infantry]
Knight Lancer [Heavy Anti Vehicle Infantry]Pheaton [Aircraft]
Onyx Sentinel [Aircraft]
Super Sentinel [Heavy Aircraft]
Enforcer Sentinel [Heavy Aircraft]
No, I hope not. UNSC and Covenant is great… flood maybe but I had enough of those bloody robots in Halo 4.
I think it would be a HUGE mistake to pass up on the chance to expand the roster of Halo Wars. Not including Prometheans would make the game very uninteresting. All we would see is the same familiar species as before. Adding them would allow for much more variety and experimenting. If not key to the story then at least have them for Multiplayer. Also the long requested Flood faction would make fans fall over.
So 343, just at least give the fans UNSC, Covenant, Forerunner, and Flood factions. After that then you can do whatever else you want.
Yeah, id like to see the Prometheans as a playable faction, who would be the leader? Iso-Didact?
