Death by intelligence.
Five Long Years...
...is apparently how long humanity fought the Covenant over Harvest. It is not, gratefully, the amount of time you'll have to wait for Halo Wars from Ensemble Studios to come out, since supposedly the game is now set for a release sometime in Spring 2009.
So, a little less than one... long... year.

Ensemble Publishes Haloverse Timeline
Since the trailer was released, the time frame of events in the upcoming Halo Wars RTS have been hot topics for discussion. Did it happen before the Halo FPS games or after? Over a long period of time, or a short one? Where did those battle rifles in the trailer come from if Halo Wars is supposed to chronicle early Human-Covenant conflicts?

Devine On Halo Wars: Magic Is In The Disc
Avateur in the HBO forum pointed out a Halo Wars Q&A with Ensemble Studio's Graeme Devine over at GameTap. Devine is the lead designer on Halo Wars.
In addition to mentioning how Ensemble must simultaneously respect the Halo canon and being free to make the best Halo RTS game Ensemble could make, rather than the best Halo RTS game Bungie could make, the article touches on the touchy issue of console controls:

Halo Wars Wants To Almost Beat You
At HaloWars.com there's a new monthly update about Halo Wars, written by Thunder. It's mostly about the game's AI:
Ultimately, the philosophy that we’ve had at Ensemble Studios is that the most fun games are when you think you might lose but don’t. The CPAI should attempt to provide the player with this challenge in each game. We want to set the difficulty levels to where most players will find a challenge, but there will be a level that can beat them if they start making mistakes.

Halo book: Fall of Reach to relation of Halo Wars
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.
