3) Characters and Enemies
=========================

Master Chief - The character you control for the whole game, you will come
  very close with him.  All that remains of a classified military project
  to build a series of genetically enhanced super-soldiers.  You are 
  humanity's last and best hope against the Covenant - but you're woefully
  outmatched, and survival is not guaranteed.

Captain Jacob Keyes - Twenty-six years into his military career, Captain
  Keyes commands respect as a keen strategist and inspirational leader
  of his men.  He became a minor hero early in his career, when he led a
  small group of security troops against a covenant ambush of the colony 
  ship Meriwether Lewis and held them off long enough for the ship to
  escape.  His many decorations and years of combat experience against
  the Covenant made him a natural choice to command the Pillar of Autumn
  and its secret cargo.

The Marines - A rugged and diverse assortment of soldiers, the Marines
  on the Pillar of Autumn are fighting a losing battle against the
  Covenant's superior weaponry and numbers.  Under the leadership of Captain
  Keyes they continue to wage a furious struggle against the Covenant,
  even as their numbers dwindle.  They're the best of the best-but they're
  only human.

Cortana - Cortana is the highly advanced AI at the heart of the Pillar of
  Autumn.  Her design allows her to be uploaded into an appropriately 
  configured battle suit for safekeeping.  She is capable of hacking into
  alien computer systems, and has used this skill to intercept Covenant
  communications during combat.  She interprets this data to provide her
  caretakers with directional waypoints and the best available information
  about troop movement and strategy.

The Grunts - Approximately 5' tall and relatively weak.  Grunts tend to 
  travel in packs and stick close to more powerful allies.  Individually
  they are easy to defeat, but in groups they can overwhelm careless
  Marines.  Their armor seems to house some sort of life-support mechanism.
  They are known to use a variety of weapons including plasma pistol,
  plasma rifle, and plasma grenades.

The Jackals - With superior senses of sight, hearing, and smell.  Jackals
  serve as scouts and assassins for the Covenant forces.  They use plasma
  pistols and carry a strong energy shield to compensate for their well
  physical weakness; a well-positioned Jackal can hold his own against
  several Marines, though grenades are effective against them.  They stand
  approximately 5'8" tall.

The Elites - There are a few varieties of the Elite, but are all roughly
  8'6" tall and incredibly strong.  Their strength allows them to rely on
  brute force when necessary, but they're quite capable of brilliant 
  battlefield tactics as well.  Their natural resilience is augmented with
  full-body energy shielding which recharges when depleted.  They wield
  plasma pistols, plasma rifles, grenades and needlers.

The Hunters - Hunters stand 12' tall, though in their combat state they
  contract to approximately eight feet.  Hunters fight with a fuel rod
  gun integrated directly into their armor.  They carry an enormous
  and nearly-impervious metal shield made of an unknown alloy, which they
  sometimes us as a melee weapon.



==========
4) Weapons
==========

------------------
4.1) Human Weapons
------------------


M9 HE-DP Grenade - The M9 high-explosive, dual-purpose grenade is a thrown
  fragmentation device.  Use it to suppress or disable vehicles, except
  tanks.  It can be thrown, rolled, bounced or ricocheted into places 
  direct fire weapons can't reach.  Increasing the angle of the throw to
  toss it farther, or to get it over obstacles.  Be careful not to throw
  it too close to your own location.
Clip Size - 1
Max Number of Clips - 4
Damage - 10/10
Accuracy - Medium
Rate of Fire - Slow

  This is an effective tool, be careful where you use it though.  Effective
  against Grunts, Jackals, Elites, Hunters, and Flood.  Weak Against none.
  Mediocre against Sentinals, mainly because its nearly impossible to hit 
  them with a blast from one of these bad boys.


M6D Pistol - This Pistol is a recoil-operated magazine-fed handgun.  It is
  issued with a smart-linked scope capable of 2x magnification (press in
  the Right thumbstick). It fires 12.7mm semi-armor-piercing, high-explosive
  rounds.  It can shoot either semi-automatic or automatic fire (pull and 
  hold the Right trigger for automatic fire).  Shot placement is very
  important.  The only shot that gurantees immediate and total
  incapacitation  is one roughly centered in the head, above a horizontal
  line passing through the ear opening and below the crown of the alien
  skull.
Clip Size - 12 Shots
Max Number of Clips - 11 
Damage - 8/10
Accuracy - Short-Medium
Rate of Fire - Medium-Fast

  This weapon is great for tight area combat.  It is wielded by marines, so
  you know its strong, and you know where you can get one.  This weapon is
  effective against Grunts, Jackals, and Elites.  This weapon is weak 
  against Hunters and Flood.  This weapon is mediocre against Sentinals.


MA5B Assault Rifle - This rifle is gas-operated and magazine-fed.  It fires
  7.62mm armor-piercing rounds.  Rate of fire is limited by a soldiers
  ability to aim, fire and change magazines.  Short, controlled bursts are
  more accurate than fully automatic fire.  The MA5B's integrated computer
  displays rounds left in the magazine and the relative direction of the
  gas giant.  Threshold, for point of reference.  This feature is 
  particularly useful for orienting you in areas where it's easy to get
  turned around and lose your sense of direction.
Clip Size - 60 Rounds
Max Number of Clips - 7
Damage - 7/10
Accuracy - Short-Medium
Rate of Fire - Fast

  This weapon is good for tight combat areas, and fairly open combat areas.
  This is also wielded by marines, if you need one just seek out a marine.
  This weapon is effective against Grunts, Jackals, and Elites.This weapon
  is weak against Hunters.  This weapon is mediocre against Flood and 
  Sentinals.


M90 Shotgun - The shotgun is a pump-action magazine-fed (dual tubular 
  nondetachable type) weapon.  It fires 8 gauge magnum (3.5") rounds.
  This weapon is very effective against targets at close range and may
  be used to engage several targets simultaneously at medium and long
  range.
Clip Size - 12 Rounds
Max Number of Clips - 6 
Damage - 9/10
Accuracy - Short
Rate of Fire - Medium
 
  This is a great weapon for tight areas, but not so effective in the open.
  This weapon is effective against Grunts, Jackals, Elites, Flood, and
  Sentinals.  This weapon is weak against Hunters.


S2 AM Sniper Rifle - This rifle is a gas-operated magazine-fed weapon.
  It is issued with a smart-linked scope with two levels of magnifications
  (press in the Right thumbstick once for 2x.  Press again for 10x, and 
  once more to deactivate).  Also, while still in zoom mode you can press
  the White Button to activate the light amplification.  It fires 14.5mm
  armor-piercing fin-stabilized discarding-sabot rounds.
  Warning: The 14.5x 114mm ADFSDS round is an anti-materiel munition.  It
  can easily over-penetrate several armored soldiers.  Be sure of what is
  on the other side of your target before firing.
Clip Size - 4
Max Number of Clips - 7
Damage - 9/10
Accuracy - Long
Rate of Fire - Medium 

  This is a great weapon when you want to drop some enemies, quickly, 
  undetected, and just for the plain fun of taking someone out from so far
  away.  This weapon is meant for medium to long distances, not close up.
  This weapon is effective against Grunts, Jackals, and Elites.  This 
  weapon is weak against Flood and Hunters.  This weapon is mediocre
  against Sentinals.


M19 SSM Rocket Launcher - The M19 SSM is a man-portable and shoulder-fired
  rocket launcher.  It has two major components, the launcher and the 
  magazine.  The magazine (the expendable part of the system) contains two
  102mm shaped-charge, high-explosive rockets.  IIt is designed for fast,
  easy detachment from the launcher.  The launchder contains the sighting
  and fire control systems.
Clip Size - 2 Rounds
Max Number of Clips - 5
Damage - 10/10
Accuracy - Medium-Long
Rate of Fire - Slow

  This is a great weapon to blow your enemies sky high.  This is great to
  take down enemy vehicles, and large enemies, but dont blow it too close
  to yourself, or it will kill you.  This weapon is effective against 
  Grunts, Jackals, Elites, Hunters, Flood, and Sentinals.


M41 LAAG - The Warthog's M41 light anti-aircraft gun is a three-barreled,
  electric-powered, linkless, drum-fed weapon.  It fires 450 to 550 
  12.7x99mm armor penetrating rounds per minute.  Turrets traverse rate is
  100 degrees per second and weapon elevation rate is 60 degrees per second.
  Recoil from sustained fire is prodigious and negatively impacts accuracy
  at long range.
Clip Size - Infinite
Max Number of Clips - Infinite
Damage - 8/10
Accuracy - Medium-Long
Rate of Fire - Fast

  This is good for any use.  It can take out basically anything that is
  destructable.  Effective against Grunts, Jackals, Elites, Hunters, Flood,
  and Sentinals.



---------------------
4.2) Covenant Weapons
---------------------


Plasma Rifle - This is a directed energy weapon.  It is capable of either
  semiautomatic or automatic fire (pull and hold the Right trigger for
  automatic fire).  Continuous rapid fire overheats the weapon-this in turn
  depletes the weapon's power core.  We curently do not understand how to
  replace or re-charge a power core.
  Note: This weapon will deplete its energy source as you use it.  It is
  wise to replace it as often as possible.
Core Power Output: 100-150 Kv at 2-3 dA
Clip Size - 100 energy points
Max Number of Clips - 1
Damage - 8/10
Accuracy - Short-Medium
Rate of Fire - 420 to 600 RD/MIN

  This weapon is the Covenant equivilant to the Human MA5B Assault Rifle.
  This basically crushes the enemy's energy shield if they have one.  This
  weapon is effective against Grunts, Jackals, Elites, and Sentinals.  This
  weapon is weak against Hunters.  This weapon is mediocre against Flood.


Plasma Pistol - This weapon is a semi-automatic directed energy weapon.  If
  you pull and hold the Right trigger, the weapon may become over-charged;
  when the Right trigger is released the bolt is launched.  After the over-
  charged bolt is launched the weapon temporarily stops funtioning as it
  dumps waste heat.  Use of the over-charge capability rapidly depletes the
  weapon's power core.  We currently do not undeerstand how to replace or
  re-charge a power core.
  Note: This weapon will deplete its energy source as you use it.  It is
  wise to replace it as often as possible.
Core Power Output: 100-1500 Kv at 2-3 dA
Over Charge Power Output: 1.5 Mv at 2-3 dA
Clip Size - 100 energy points
Max Number of Clips - 1
Damage - 7/10
Accuracy - Short-Medium
Rate of Fire - Medium-Fast

  This weapon is excellent for close combat, but is bad for distanced 
  fighting.  This weapon is effective against  Grunts, Jackals, Elites, 
  and Sentinals.  This weapon is weak against Hunters.  This weapon is
  mediocre against Flood.


Needler - Very little is known about this weapon other than that it is a
  magazie fed weapon capable of automatic fire.  Its projectiles penetrate
  soft targets no matter what the angle of impact.  They ricochet off of 
  hard surfaces at oblique angles, however, and are always deflected by 
  energy fields, the only exceptions to this being the shields generated
  by the MJOLNIR battle suit and the Elite's combat armor.  The composition
  and energy signature of its projectile is unknown.  The manner in which
  the projectiles home in on their target is also unknown.
Clip Size - 20 Rounds
Max Number of Clips - 5 clips
Damage - 7/10
Accuracy - Medium
Rate of Fire - Fast

  This weapon is good in close combat, and medium distances.  It is 
  effective against Grunts, Jackals, Elites and Sentinals. This weapon is
  weak against Hunters.  This weapon is mediocre against Flood.


Stationary Gun (Shade) - Although the Shade appears to be a light
  anti-vehicle weapon, the covenant uses it almost exclusively in an anti-
  infantry role.  The operator sits directly behind the gun and an armored
  control suite, but relies entirely on infantry support for protection to
  the sides and rear.
Clip Size - Infinite
Max Number of Clips - Infinite
Damage - 8/10
Accuracy - Medium-Long
Rate of Fire - Fast

  This weapon is effective against Grunts, Jackals, Elites, Hunters, and 
  Flood.  Mediocre against none.  Weak against none.


Plasma Grenade - This weapon is similar to our own hand grenade in that it
  is a thrown anti-infantry and anti-vehicle weapon.  It has some kind of
  internal mechanism that allows it to distinguish between targets and
  background.  For example, it will stick to a soldier or vehicle, but 
  not a tree or wall.  It has a three-second fuse that is activated after
  it sticks to a target or otherwise comes to a rest.
Clip Size - 1
Max Number of Clips - 4
Damage - 10/10
Accuracy - Short-Medium
Rate of Fire - Slow

  Activate. Stick to enemy. Run away. Boom.  Simple as that.  This bad boy
  is excellet.  Toss it and it will stick.  Effective against Grunts, 
  Jackals, Elites, Hunters, Flood, and Sentinals.

5) Vehicles
===========


----------------
Human Vehicles
----------------

M12 LRV - The M12 light reconnaissance vehicle, or Warthog, is the standard
  vehicle of the UEG armed forces.  It is fast and maneuverable, but prone 
  to rollovers during hard cornering.  A three-barraled machine-gun is
  mounted in the rear of the vehicle.  Armed passangers significantly
  increase the unit's anti-infantry capacity.
Crew - 1 + 1 (plus 1 more in rear)
Weight: 3.25 tons
Armament: 12.7mm three-barreled machine-gun
Speed - Fast
Defense - Low


M808B Scorpion MBT - The Scorpion Main Battle Tank is primarily an anti-
  vehicle weapons platform, but it also has very high anti-infantry
  capabilities.  Its ceramic-titanium armor makes it nearly invulnerable
  to small arms fire, but its deep dead-zone, or the area within which
  fire from the tank's guns cannot hit targets, puts it at risk from
  enemy anti-tank infantry.  Up to four soldiers may ride on (and fire from)
  the Scorpion's track pods.  Riding on a tank is always hazardous and
  should be done only when advantages outweigh the risks.
Crew: 2 (or 1 cyborg)
Weight: 66 Tons
Main Gun: 90mm HV (High Velocity)
Secondary/Coaxial gun: 7.62mm AP-T (Armor Piercing, Tracer)
Speed - Slow
Defense - High


-------------------
Covenant Vehicles
-------------------

Ghost - The Ghost is the Covenant's standard reconnaissance and rapid attack
  vehicle.  It is equipped with two of what are now accepted as the standard
  light vehicle mounted weapons: a directed energy weapon capable of
  projecting a bolt of super-heated plasma in the 100-150kW range.  While
  the vehicle is fast and maneuverable, the driver is virtually unprotected.
Crew: 1
Weight: 3.25 tons
Armament: Two Plasma Cannons (100-250 kW range)
Speed - Fast
Defense - Low


Banshee - The Banshee is the Covenant's standard ground assault aircraft.
  It is very fast, extremely maneuverable and capable of hovering.  It has
  two weapon pods mounted to either side of the fuselage.  Both of these
  pods contain light plasma cannon and a fuel rod cannon.  Though small 
  arms fire may disrupt or disable the pilot, only heavy weapons are
  capable of inflicting damage or destroying the vehicle.
Crew: 1
Weight: 2.25 tons
Armament: Two Plasma Cannons (100-150 kW range)
Secondary Weapon: Two Feul Rod Cannons
Speed - Very Fast
Defense - Medium



==============
6) Walkthrough
==============

Difficulties:

Easy - Your foes cower and fall before your unstoppable onslaught, yet
  final victory will leave you wanting more.

Normal - Hordes of aliens vie to destroy you, but nerves of steel and a
  quick trigger finger give you a solid chance to prevail.

Heroic - Your enemies are as numerous as they are ferocious; their attacks
  are devastating.  Survival is not guaranteed.

Legendary - You face opponents who have never known defeat, who laugh in
  alien tongues at your efforts to survive.  This is suicide.

6.3) The Truth and Reconciliation
---------------------------------


*******************************
6.3.1) Truth and Reconciliation
*******************************

Objectives:
-Board the Covenant Battle Cruiser


This is a special level, If you will look at your starting ammo for your
sniper rifle you get 64 bullets.  That is way more than this gun usually 
has, but its good for this level, you will need it.  From the start follow
the Marines, but stick to the right side of the cliffs.  Get some nice cover
and start sniping the enemies.  After you start taking out the enemies they
will eventually see you.  One of the Grunts will make a break for one of the
stationary guns (Shade) a Nav point will appear showing you his location,
take him out, simple as that.  From where you entered, hug the left hand
wall and follow the path.  Pass through this area, and the exit is similar
to the path you entered on, no left hand wall, just a cliff.  Now find a
nice position to shoot from.  Get situated for a fight.  From where you 
entered, make a right between the rocks, down the small hill, and slightly
towards your right, pass under the rock bridge, and go between the rocks
that are towards your right, but infront of you.  Now pass through the
rock pass, killing the few enemies across the way.  Now just fight, fight,
fight.  Kill all the enemies aroud here, a few dropships will come and 
bring you some more enemies to vanquish.  Also the Large ship that is above
you will drop enemies down its gravity lift.  The last enemies you will

-Locate Captain Keyes

Well when this level starts out, it is just plain way to hard to give any
kind of directions to get you through.  So until I can devise a plan to
make directions to guide you though you will have to search.  You will need
to cross a fallen tree that acts like a bridge.  And you will come upon
a builing in the wall.  Pass down the slope, and stand on the lift, activate
it and go down.  Get off the lift and you will find an exit, take it and it
will put you into.  Jump down and take the door on your right.  Go to the
only other unlocked door in this room, and pass through.  Go through the
door on the left again pass through the only other door unlocked in this
room.  Come out of the door, make a right, and jump onto the platform that
has an unlocked door, take it, again you will be in another room with only
one exit, take it.  Head across the room and over to the left, jump up on
the pile of ruble, and go up the sloped platform.  Once at the top you will
see a door on the other side, take it, again one more room with one exit.
Activate the energy bridge, and go across and through the open door on the
other side.  Go left then make a quick right and go down the slope, and
through the door.

the purple crates that are tipped over jump up them and on too the second
level.  Stay up top and activate the light bridge, cross it and go through
the door.  Activate the lift, then turn around and come back the way you
came.  Go through the door on the opposite side of the room.  Then make
a left and go through that door.  Make a right, then a left through the next
door.  Now activate the lift in this room.  There is only one exit in this
room, it shouldnt be too hard to find.  Jump down from the top and take 
the door on the left.  Go through the opposit door, go to the left side of
the room and jump up to the second level, using the obstacles there, go to
the only door on the second level.  Go straight across and there is a door
on the other side.  Jump down and exit by the door on the left.  Cross the

run across it and go through the door.  Go through activate this lift and 
walk out of the base.  Now here is another section I just can't even begin
to walk you through, the area is too open and too confusing, rather than me

search.  You are just searching for a large tower. Once you find it you will
see a cut-scene.

This is a very confusing level, what you need to do is basically just follow
the monitor and fight fight fight.  This level is know as one of the toughest
levels.  Just be sure to collect ammo as much as possible and be sure not
to waste ammo on weak enemies, learn which enemies certain weapons work well
against.  This level really isn't so hard, just remember what 343 Guilty
Spark looks like, he is a purple flying orb, and listen to what he says to
you and you can easily navigate this level.  If your energy shields drop low
take cover and fight, don't let the enemies damage your health if they
dont have to.  Basically the Shotgun is your best weapon against the Flood.
