This trick is relatively easy, but requires patience. First you start off in the level, but with no guns. You have 2 options get the Black Eye skull (on pipe above) or you can go downstairs and get a gun. Now go up to the ops center and go to Johnson. Now this is the time consuming part. Whack Johnson around the whole level. He will do all the fighting just give him a weapon (battle rifle works nice). Do this by killing him and drop a gun on top of him. If you sont give him a weapon when he gets shot he makes an atemmpt to run over and try to punch the covenent forces (hilarious!). Don't kill him to many times either or he will kill you (one shot your dead). BEWARE the corners if Johnson gets stuck in them grenade him out.He can get knocked out and get annoying because since he doesnt move by himself he can get stuck blown and get whoknows, where so keep an eye on him.
When you visit the ops center again you should take (whack) Johnson with you to meet the Johnson clone gaurding the bomb. Don't be Greedy you cant whack the one guarding the bomb around (well at least i dont think you can) without him walking back to his post.
To sum it all up LEGENDARY EASY WITH A SLAVE NAMED SERGEANT JOHNSON. WHACK HIM AROUND AND HE WILL DO ALL THE WORK!

This trick is very easy to do. Go on the last level and keep a rocket launcher. Next play through the level until you get right before the door to Guilty Spark 343 (outside the door of the cutscene where Sergeant johnson dies). Then if you already haven't let the Sergeant catch up and take out your rocket launcher. Shoot him (make sure he dies) and go into the cutscene before he gets back up. Kill 343 and when you exit the room Johnson will still be with you. Now prevent the Arbitor and the Sergeant from destroying the infection forms. If done correctly an infection form can enter Johnson. Later...(painful screaming noises)...Now Johnson should be fully infected. He will probuly lunge at you. Then kill him.

The thunderstorm skull is simple to get. It is a gold skull. It gives all enemies a promotion to the next highest rank.

In order to get this skull, start from the beginning of the level "The Covenant" and fight through the level until you get to the air fight when you are in the Hornet. Fly to the tower that the Arbiter disabled, and land near the entrance. Go ahead and access the terminal that is inside and straight ahead if you feel like it; it's not necessary for retrieving the skull. When you emerge from the terminal area, in front of you should be a ramp extending toward the sea. Walk to the end of the ramp and there you have it, the thunderstorm skull!

Some thing frightening : let’s say an encounter includes 1 Brute chieftain, 1 Brute Captain Ultra, and 5 brute minors. All of them become a rank higher which is very scary (but it racks up a decent amount of points). If you don't mind getting a lot of points by killing 4 captians and fending off 6 minors, then this is the skull for you. This skull is very helpful to get achievments like Guerilla, Demon, Cavalier, Askar, Exterminator, Ranger, Vanguard, Orpheus, and Reclaimer.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Because of the scoring bonus and the fact that flood don't seem to rank up, it's good for "free" points on Floodgate, Cortana and Halo.

When I was trying to get the IWHBYD skull I fell and I ened up in a garage and when I steped out I was walking on nothing! First I was walking on buildings and I got to the pelican checkpoint (Where if your trying to get the skull you jumpp down on the ramp to see the pelican fly away) there is a small space between the building your trying to jump to and the rail. Fall in the space and keep on walking.You should end up in a sort of garage.

Sign on Zanzibar
On the beach on Zanzibar, you will see signs that say NO SWIMMING. Well, go to your xbox dashboard, go to the Settings, Clock, and change every number you can to 7 , then pop Halo 2 back into your xbox and load it up. WARNING: Do not sign into XBoxLive, it resets your clock. Now go to Split-Screen and start a game on Zanzibar. Go to the beach and look at the sign, it will mention something is missing, and there is a bloody dog's head.

First go to Quarintine Zone. Next look around to your right side and you should see a small tunnel. Walk through it. Now keep on going strait till you see a strip of land that is connected to the wall (There are many strips of land connected to the wall so pick the one that has kind of like a part of a ship or metal hiding it). Walk down the strip of land ( careful not to fall off ) till you reach the end and you should see a floating skull. You must do this on Legendary.

This skull makes things have bigger explosions and more
powerful melee attacks.

When you crash on the level Outskirts step outside and you will see a grunt, kill him. Now look up to you right and left side. You will see two lights. Jump on one and grenade or crouch jump(grenade jump is a little hard on a light)up on the roof. Look around and you will see a small dark pathway. Walk down ithe path and you will find a skull and a couple frags. Pick up the skull and your HUD will disapear. Do this on any difficulty.

On the level the Armory get done with the testing. Johnson will come in and ask for you to come in the elevator. DON'T until he says would it help if I said please enter elevator. Walk across to the second elevator, enter, and go to the inner part so your looking at the battlefield. Then Johnson will go on about nothing will get passed here in one piece. Get close to the window and hold X. Tje skull should be on a crate that you are passing. You must do this on Legendary.

First get the sputnik skull in Quarintine Zone. Second go to the great journey and obtain the black eyed skull.Now go to the level Metropolis (whack enemies for overshield)and get a ghost get to the part where you need to save marines stuck in a building. Get a good distance from the wraith at the brigde. Face the bridge and wraith and get out of the ghost. Place to 2 frags under the Ghost and get in. Start driving foward (not fast or too much).You should go flying foward and land on a platform. Ride the ghost until you see a red caution sign with a scarab gun (disguised as a plasma rifle ) floating gon top of it. This should work if you do it correctly.

When you get to Regret in the level Regret dodge the honor guards and charge for Regret. Press X on his chair and you will be riding his chair. Now? Beat some sense into him.

With hunters shoot them in the exposed neck with a sniper and they should die . I tried this on normal so im not sure about heroic and legendary mode.

When I was reading the book Halo: Fall of Reach it tells that there is more then one spartan and it told MC's life and subortinates.Also told how he got on the Pillar of Autumn in the first place. The game trailer for Halo Wars shows master chief leading his subortinates. After very little research I find out that they use old guns and viecles. So I think the plot might be the same thing in both the game and the book.

At the end of the level the Arbitor when get a Banshee go to the Bottom of the structure. Look around and you will see something like a bridge that looks like it is holding the structure up. Check under the bridge and you will find 2 ramps on one side will be a number of grunts dancing around a skull. Pick up the skull.You must do this on Legendary.

The skull GRUNT'S B-DAY use is headshots turn into Plasma Grenade explosions. You must first take down an Elite's shield for this to work on one. You can also give a headshot to a dead body and it will still explode. This skull doesn't affect Hunters or Drones. Note: you can combine this with the Sputnik skull, this will make the explosions really powerful and amusing. (it is also A LOT easier to obtain with the Sputnik skull)
