Although much of our spaceborne weaponry has been eliminated or disabled,
the Covenant has ignored most of our land-based moveable systems. We believe
this to be a tactical mistake on their part. Since their intention seems to be the
capture, rather than destruction of Earth, they will have to fight on our terms at
ground level.

Light reconnaissance vehicle (LRV), a proven and reliable standard UNSC vehicle.
Also unofficially known as “Warthog,” LRV is equipped with powerful machine
gun. Maneuverable and excellent in any terrain, Warthog relies on superb
traction and updated braking system. To power-slide, pull the
Left trigger
for
the E-brake.
Light anti-armor vehicle (LAAV) identical in every respect to other Warthog
variants, except for turret-mounted Gauss Cannon.
Although Scorpion Main Battle Tank’s primary role is as anti-vehicle platform, its
effectiveness against Covenant infantry makes it a useful anti-personnel weapon,
too. Ceramic-titanium armor makes it almost invulnerable to small-arms fire.
Vehicle has single-pilot cockpit, but in emergencies can transport four additional
infantrymen on “jumpseat” platforms.
Boarding
If you’re close to a slow-moving or stationary vehicle, press and hold
X
to
board that vehicle. It’s possible to board from the front, rear, and side of a
vehicle—and above one if you jump carefully. Boarding allows you overtake
the driver, passenger, and even gunner seat of most vehicles.
