Old School Halo Helmets and New 12-Spartan ‘Warlords’ Playlist Coming to Warzone
Hope you’re enjoying the Halo Wars 2 Blitz beta (I’m having trouble selecting cards with a controller!), but here’s a few things over the weekend that can be consolidated into one post.- Looks like we’ll receive a 12-spartan, team-based Warzone playlist to preview and test out this coming weekend called ‘Warlords’. It hits the playlist hopper at 5P EST on Friday, January 27th.
- As pointed out in Decemeber, some old school Halo helmets are coming back this year. Looks like Sketch just confirmed that will be early next month via reddit! Also saw where a month ago he confirmed they would be unlocked via real money or RP, not achievements like hoped for. 🙁

Let’s Play Myth II: Soulblighter Co-op #13 The Deceiver
We’re playing the next of Bungie’s famous franchises, the Real Time Tactics fantasy wargame, Myth. Set in a mysterious land of cyclical war and destruction, Myth lets you command a ragtag army in a desperate battle against the forces of the Fallen Lords.
As mauls and warlocks face off all around us, we must sneak through their lines to use the Deceiver’s wand to resurrect him.
In this episode we’re once again using the high definition tagset, made by Ooga Booga, Renwood and Road. The Myth Myth HD Total Conversion v1.31 provides higher resolution units.
Due to the tireless work of many community members over the years, the Myth engine has been modernized to work on current operating systems, although you’ll still need a copy of the game’s data files to play. Check Ebay.
For the engine itself as well as texture enhancements, go to Project Magma:
There’s also multiplayer metaserver available for competitive carnage:
A bunch of other Myth-related downloads are available at The Tain:
