We recently kicked off our recap of the Halo series in chronological order, beginning with the story of Halo: Reach. Unlike Microsoft, however, we haven't forgotten about Halo Wars- which should really have come first, but, you know... better late than never, right? As the first game in the series' chronology, Halo Wars sets up some important things for future games, and here, we're going to talk about its events from beginning to end.


Halo Wars is set in the year 2531, about two decades before the fall of Reach and the subsequent events of Halo: Combat Evolved, the first game in the series. At this time, humanity has been under attack from the Covenant for about six years, with the fanatical collective of alien races hellbent on destroying the human race and completely wiping it out. The game's story focuses on the crew of the UNSC ship Spirit of Fire, which is led by Captain James Cutter, with other major characters in the ship's crew being the no-nonsense marine John Forge, and the ship's AI Serina.
