Suggestions

I just wanted to see if you guys could come up with your own ideas for Halo Wars in the form of a DLC pack. I thought of this. Also please post your suggestions in the same form i am.

UNSC:

New Hero: Cortana. Abilities: Hack. Cost:500 What it does:when you use hack on a neutral building it will make that building automatically yours also you can only have 1 neutral building as yours until you research the last 2 upgrades (max 3 neutral buildings). It will also spawn 5 squads of marines. It does not work on neutral bases and towers.
Unit: Cortana’s special unit will be Hackers. Hackers will cost 1000 and will be a group of four hackers for one unit. When it attacks buildings it will go up to the building and open a computer it will hack into the building and slowly destroy it but when the building is destroyed it will become yours including Covenant but it will not allow you to upgrade the units in the building (unless its lets say UNSC and your UNSC it will let you upgradr units and buy special\Uber units) or buy super/Uber units. think of its upgrades if you want.

now i was thinking of something like this.

When you choose lets say the warthog a new circle menu will open and there will be 3 different warthog types that you can buy and upgrade like this:

Warthog Turret: 500 (only available after tech level 1) spawns a warthog with a turret. Upgrades: Grenadier: you already know what it does. Turret Grease: will make turret turn 20% faster. Upgraded Engines: will make Turret Warthogs move faster.

There could also be Gauss Warthog and Transport Warthog (can only transport units not vehicles and with last upgrade has small landing pad for 1 Hornet/Hawk to spawn from.)

Thats all i have for UNSC But feel free to add your own.

Covenant:
For covenant i have this.

Hero: Zealot. Abilities: Scrap: this ability will make it so that when vehicles are destroyed and the Zealot is nearby and it is destroyed in his field of range he will walk to the vehicle and Scrap it and it will give you 500 For without upgrade 1000 for next upgrade 1500 then 2000 for last and 2nd to last upgrades.
Special Unit: Zealot 2nd in command. These units are like spartans they can hijack vehicles. think of your own ideas for its upgrades.

for covenant i thought it could be like you upgrade the Scarab. Like it could get the Climb passive ability where it can climb any height. It could get the upgrade One at a Time where it shoots Big green Balls instead of a lazer but it will result in a module in the middle and spartans would be able to jack it and ability could be be like stomp so that when you activate it the scarab would jump and anything near it when it lands would be destroyed instead of vehicles. Then the last upgrade would be Call in which spawn grunts and brutes on the scarab so that when a spartan tries to hijack it it will take longer for them to hijack it because he’s fighting the units on it and you could garrison units in it to put more and more on it and the spartan could die if you do this.

Now please dont submit your unit upgrades like i did for the scarab i was too excited so dont please.

Now then you could make a secondary circle for the Ghost where theres a Fuel Rod ghost a Regular ghost then a Revenant try to think up of these ideas yourself.

Thank you for reading and Please submit your ideas and hopefully 343 will put them in!

i just thought of something else too there could be a unit with a Mine ability which places 10 land mines in an area and like when you press why to use it a circle pops up the same size as the one when you hold A and when you press a the units go to that area where you pressed and places 10 land mines there. And there can be a max of like 100 land mines that way people can think up of new strategies also only you and your allies can see them your enemies cant and you and your allies dont make them explode when you go over them. or it could be like an leader ability and like the UNSC use regular land mines and the Covenant use purple ones that look more covenant-ish

I would suggest that little Forge Ball thing but then it would ruin it because this is like the vents before the events in halo reach and halo 3

oh and you could also add Mongoose and stuuf like that with a dude on the back for shooting and it could be used for short but fast scouting

this would be better off in the 343 don’t forget halo wars thread. its on this page.
I think that your ideas are sound. new leaders and stuff would keep me quite in my free time, but just a map pack with 6+ maps would do for me. think simple.

Thank you i shall post this on that thread
