Well i went back and gave it another go once killing no Jackle's and it wasnt there, then once killing all Jackle's and Not methane and it was there so im not sure what happen with you sounds kinda weird @.@

 

 

 

Hi ! thanks for this it will come in very handy but i have a question. In the writing that scrolls along the bottom of the screen (I think it's at the main menu) it tells me I have 3 out of 17 skulls, how do you get the last 2 :confused:
FlameBall Warthog Counts as 16 Honor Gaurd Wraith is 17 but even if you have them it will say 15/17 and if you need proof to know they are 16 and 17 check my skulls out http://www.halowars.com/stats/StatsPlayer.aspx?id=38B761C7E65434473A54EA06E889A8EADB7291820FAD45D664C125064CE1A648

Very good guide indeed!

 

I have a question about mission number 1, killing 100 grunts. Is there any hidden area with grunts? Because I never seem to find enough grunts to get 100, and as soon as I kill the ones at the end, the mission is over.

Nope just go through the Level really Slowly and dont send your warthogs in the Base send the troops as some times they run out the front

I left a Warthog at the front of Alpha base, and then proceeded to go in and kill the rest of the Grunts...

 

Got 100/100 and then switched over to the Warthog where the skull should have been and it wasn't there, then the level ended :(

 

Is it hard to see and maybe I missed it? Any help is appreciated, thanks :)

Hey, I've got a warning for the skull on Mission 1. If you don't kill the grunts quickly, any kills that the marines that you're rescuing get before you rescue them don't count to your total kills. If you have less than 100 kills it's because the marines stole too many kills.
