Auto Credit Based on SpartanSR91's Forerunner Guardian Sentinel

Disclaimer: When I originally built my Guardian Sentinel, I found artwork of a machine that looked like a guardian, but with floating structures surrounding it. When I got bored and decided to build a multiplayer variant of the guardian, I found the artwork again, and it turned out to be this.

Offensive Bias, serial number 08-145, is a Metarch Level artificial intelligence created by the Forerunners. Its purpose was to counter the actions of its predecessor, Mendicant Bias, after Mendicant succumbed to the Logic Plague. Offensive Bias's personality would be described as less creative and less independent than Mendicant Bias, but far more cold and calculating. In the end, Offensive Bias was able to win the battle by biding its time until the activation of the Halo Array, then seizing control of Mendicant's now crewless ships. After the dust settled, Offensive Bias recovered the personality construct array of Mendicant Bias and brought it to The Ark for trial. After 77 years of guarding Mendicant's burial site, Offensive Bias was assigned to guard Installation 07, and the inhabitants that dwell within.

Additional Notes:

  • The weapon loadout is in the Craft Instructions, as well as a brief description of each weapon.

  • Unlike my original Guardian, the beam weapon on Offensive bias is gyro stabilized, allowing the construct to attack on the move.

  • There is a working HUD in the cockpit camera.

  • The only canon Halo weapon on this build is the Light Mass Fusillade Cannon, the others are a bit of fun on my part.

    @spectre118 You select the weapon manually, then hold the fire button down to charge. The craft instructions list more details that can help.
