Mark Your Calendars
We're still about two months away from the public's first taste of Halo 3's Mythic Map Pack. Halo Wars is set for March 3rd in the U.S. On or around that date, depending on your territory, is when Halo Wars LE purchasers will have access to Assembly, Orbital and Sandbox.
On the Mythic Map Pack front, we don't want to whet your appetite with too many forkfuls of sweet media only to make you sit at the table for nearly a 60-day stretch with only the napkin stuffed into your shirt collar to keep you company. That said, we did release a handful of screenshots showcasing Assembly and Orbital a few weeks back and we've moved them over into the proper gallery space on the Halo 3 Project page in case you missed them.
In the meantime, the pots and pans are clanging away, and there's an aromatic bouquet of flavors coloring the air here at the studio. Soon enough, the meal will be ready to be served, and you'll be too busy romping around in Halo 3's refreshed and reinvigorated multiplayer to recall even the slightest hint of the wait you've been forced to endure. In the meantime, hold tight dear friends.

Halo3: Mythic Map Pack: full details & Date!
Microsoft has announced full details of the Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack to be released inside the Halo Wars Limited Collector's Edition. The DLC will be made available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace at a later date.
The three maps included in the pack are Sandbox, Assembly, and Orbital. A copy of Halo 3 is required to play the new maps.
Sandbox
Combines large-scale vehicular combat with a limitless amount of Forge customization. Boasting a tiered, open-world layout, build your own unique game experiences using the Forge map editor. Sandbox is a map unlike any Bungie has ever created.
Assembly
Set in the heart of a Covenant Scarab manufacturing facility. With two identical bases on either side of this medium-sized map, it's a perfect environment for both Slayer and objective games like Capture the Flag and Assault.
Orbital
A small asymmetrical map, is set in the docking station of the Quito Space Tether. One-sided games like One Flag, and One Bomb are sure to become quick fan-favourites, but the Slayer faithful will also find plenty of action on this battleground.
Get the maps first with the Limited Collector's Edition of Halo Wars, scheduled for release on February 27.
