Bungie loves you as long as you love Halo. However, many of us Halo lovers were not going to buy the Halo Wars LE just to get three of the six Mythic Maps early. Whilst I’m glad I don’t fall into that category, don’t fret! Bungie strongly hinted for the true Halolore fans or lovers of google by saying “After Halo Wars
LCE hits retailers, your wait won’t be too much longer than the span of time between the Gettysburg’s departure for Earth to warn of the Covenant invasion and Regret’s slipspace jump out of the skies above New Mombasa. Afterwards, you’ll be able to plunk down 800 Marketplace Points for your very own copy of the Mythic Map Pack for Halo 3.”
Well, since I am a Halo fanboy and proud, the date Gettysburg went to warn earth of the Covenant invasion was the sad day of September 13th and the day the Prophet of Regret went into slipsace and destroyed New Mombasa was the sadder day October 20th. If you watched your sesame street this morning and count the days between the two dates it is 37 days. Thirty-seven days after March 3rd is the release of the Mythic Map Pack for all you RTS haters which just so happenes to be on April 9th
The map pack will come with six new maps (Assembly, Orbital, Sandbox, Heretic, Longshore, and Citadel; the three in bold come with Halo Wars LE) and a new playlist starting March 3rd called Team Mythic which Bungie says will consist of “…social 4v4 playlist exclusive to owners of the Mythic Map Pack. Primarily slayer, Team Mythic will feature Slayer, Slayer BRs, SWAT, and Snipers. Additionally, 2 Flag, Neutral Assault, and even Grifball will make cameos at a lower weighting. 
The playlist will feature all three Mythic maps, including Sandbox in multiple variants.” Yes, it says three maps. That is because we only get 3 maps with Halo Wars LE. It will also include skulls for each of these maps, new achievements, a new forge option for Sandbox allowing you to go dual layered with a completely blank second layer allowing endless possibilites, and of course more needlers.

The guy above me is right. The last three maps won’t come out till ODST. The map pack got split in half. The same three, and ONLY the three that come with Halo Wars are being released shortly after.

in all the market place movies and interviews they only talk about 3 maps for the mythic map pack Assembly, Orbital, and Sandbox. in the video under inside xbox they preview and only talk about these three maps and not the other three maps. on this site you say that the mythic map pack comes with all six. is your info true.

The Mythic Map pack features all 6 maps however the first three will be included with Halo Wars LE, the other three will be included with Halo 3: ODST. So the Mythic Map pack in theory is not complete until ODST comes out.
