      Yeah the grunts really have it rough. First they ruin their planet with climate change, then the Halos are fired, and they have to start over. Then they're enslaved by The Covenant, then even though The Covenant falls, they're enslaved by covenant remnants, including the Banished, which by nature is more brutal. (Spoiler)
      And now they work for The Created, which at least is sort of by choice. They couldn't refuse it, but at least they knowingly embraced it.

      The Banished are the very definition of the exiles taking over. A once seemingly powerless faction ended defeat the UNSC in such a short time that took the Covenant years to beat. It is one for an Empire to rise, but the most dangerous factions destroy those said empires. The Banished didn’t just outlived the Covenant, they surpassed it.

      Yeah and like Halo Canon pointed out, the Banished and Atriox are philosophically different than the Covenant and the Prophets. Like I'm pretty sure Atriox would accept humans into his Banished.

    I like how Halo Wars 2 made the Brutes more three dimensional, showing they can be clever and creative and not just completely focused on bloodlust and easily manipulated, whilst still maintaining differences from the Elites. It makes them much more of a threat.

    The two brothers are my favorites. As they may have been the main stars in the Banished Story DLC. Yet they had a lot more personality and showed that the Banished aren't full of mindless bloodthirsty Brutes and other aliens. Yet the two are shown to be very smart and very cunning. Even if they had to clean up a Flood Infection...one of the two accidently released. After being told TO NOT GO INTO THE SHIP! lol

    Ya know, I definitely could see some humans joining the Banished ranks. In the midst of Cortana's AI Overlording its not hard to imagine that there will be some human groups that are scared and feel helpless since a large majority of the UNSC is keeping a down low on their operations and movement with Cortana around. If the Banished were to show up and offer humans a fight against Cortana, maybe even with some tech that gives them an edge over Forerunners, I think some humans would side with them.

While we never see a decisive hit on him to kill him, the fact that he was swarmed and that the planet was undergoing the glassing process, leads to him dying. There is no way 6 is alive.

    Here’s how I think the Banished arrived in Reach: Anders was on the ring that was found close to Reach. Even though Anders threw most of the banished forces on the ring, there was still enough troops to establish a base and build vehicles and weapons. So after they gained enough troops they took hold of the ring and somehow found there way to Reach. Idk that’s just my theory.

I just love their Roman meets Mad Max look, their history, mercenary society, weapons, vehicles etc. the Banished are so cool. I just hope they have a good reason for being an antagonist in Halo infinite, I think 343 needs to flesh out the Banished motivation more so it isn’t just “we want power”.

    I think what I love about Atriox is that he is actually a compelling protagonist.

I have to imagine that if the situation was aligned properly, he might not be a "bad guy."
