Halo 2 - Heresy in the Mausoleum | Endless AI War

Player Count: 1-2 Players (Campaign)

Mission: Survive

Objective: Fight your way through the horde of enemies for as long as you and your team can.

---

Believers and warriors of the Covenant, heed my words. The Great Journey is nearing its culmination, but with its radiant end, we stand upon the precipice of the Great Schism. The Covenant is cleaved asunder, and a choice must be made. Will you remain steadfast in your honor, loyal to the Prophets, or shall you embrace the path of Covenant separatists? Be vigilant in your decision, for the fate of your heresy will weigh upon your very steps, and the shadows of doubt may linger. Let us make our last stand within the hallowed Mausoleum of the Arbiter, ready to fight to the bitterest of ends for the promise of the Great Journey. Embrace the inevitable, and let the Great Schism commence.

For an extra challenge, play legendary with these skulls enabled:
* Anger
* Catch
* Mythic
* That's Just Wrong.

Yet, in all honesty, the challenge will remain substantial even without these modifiers, particularly when adopting the role of Jiralhanae. However, wielding the formidable Halo 2 Gravity Hammer is well worth it.

Ever wanted to have an endless fight in the Mausoleum of the Arbiter as one of the two sides duking during the Great Schism? Assume the roles of an Elite or a Brute and engage in battle while reveling in one of the most iconic soundtracks of Halo 2, all just moments prior to the arrival of the formidable protagonist.

I've also crafted alternative versions that lack Steam and developer support, providing an opportunity to experience the mod in Halo 2 Anniversary Campaign graphics. To access that version, consult the 'How to Play Halo 2 Anniversary' text file for instructions and an in-depth understanding of their limitations it comes with. I've included this information to showcase the exquisite visual potential that can be unlocked through mods for the Halo 2 Anniversary Campaign. My hope is that this will kindle further enthusiasm within the Halo community for mod support and encourage collaborative efforts with Saber Interactive and 343 Industries to bring this vision to fruition.

Instructions for Anniversary Graphics can be found here:
