There is currently no official OR unofficial release date for either game. Any date being given to you is a complete guess.
Check the FAQ's on the official sites for both games:
http://www.halowars.com
http://www.bungie.net
A lot of people are suggesting that November is the release date for Halo 3 because they're confused with the original release date of the movie (which has now been pushed back to 2008).
Bungie is ULTRA careful with release dates, but the movie date wasn't under their control.
Halowars and Halo 3 are both Xbox 360 exclusives. Halo 3 is definately launching in 2007, according to a recent weekly Bungie update.
If Ensemble Studios launches AFTER Halo 3, no one will even notice because the Halo fans will be concentrating on Halo 3 instead, but according to EGM, that's what they're doing.
.
If they launch DURING the Halo 3 launch, folks that are forking out $100 for the legendary edition (the one with the helmet) are unlikely to want to spend an extra $69 (or whatever) for Halowars, and THOSE fans are the target market for the game.. the hardcore Halo fans. Microsoft isn't dumb enough to put two titles out in direct competition with each other.. especially when one of them are the largest grossing game in the history of video games.
If they launch BEFORE Halo 3, then the folks that are going crazy for Halo stuff will get it, to hold them over til Halo 3 is released.
We should be hearing release announcements for both of them soon.. probably this month.. take a look at 1up.com's "3 weeks of Halo" (linked at the top of that page). Check out the calendar of events, and note that there's a big announcement coming soon.. there's no confirmation of whether that will be a Halo 3 release date announcement or not, but I suspect it'll be a Halowars release announcement, because I kinda think it'll be out first.
In fact.. if you notice how it kinda' came out of nowhere... I wonder if it was set-up to at least put pressure on the PS3.. I dunno how succesfull that'll be, but look at the timing of everything.. Halo 3 will be near the top of it's hype cycle right as the PS3 comes out, but Halowars is probably gonna' fill that gap and offer maybe like a trailer for Halo 3 or something...
It's like a chessgame..
Anyways.. good luck in your quest for Halo knowledge
*UPDATE* - 3 halo announcements on the 14th:
#1- 2 new Halo 2 mulitplayer maps for the 360 early next year.
#2- Halo 3 multiplayer BETA Demo for the 360 early next year.
#3- Halo 3 commercial for the superbowl.

A possible safe room in an aircraft?
mach2.25st
Has a safe room ever been designed for a passenger aircraft for VIPs? The VIP could be strapped securely with safety gear like a helmet and other protection equipment. The room would be very heavy but I would think it would be nothing too much for a large airliner. For example any idea if the President has something like this? During a crash he could be held securely with full gear on in a room able to withstand great forces and temperatures. Like a black box. Obviously it would be unlikely for people to survive if the aircraft was destroyed at high altitudes or crashing into something, but it would not be unbelievable for someone to survive runway crashes and other possible were the most common death is head injuries.
Answer
Have you ever heard the term spun into butter?
The human brain can not survive intact and functioning if subject to too much of or too many "spin" acceleration / deceleration cycles. So the body might well survive "intact", but be rather limp before rigor mortis sets in.
Aircraft crashes are particularly nasty in as much as the fuselage tends to break up and roll, often burning as they do so. Your idea would soften SOME aspects of this, but tend to heighten OTHER ASPECTS.
The reason a motorcycle helmet works poorly when loose is that it transmits more spin to the head as much as any other thing. THE TIGHTER HELMET SKIDS its hard surface against other objects, while the looser helmet spins on the head stops abruptly at it's limit of movement relative to the head and actually transmits momentary forces greater than might well have existed WITHOUT THE HELMET.
Your idea is in essence something like that.
A foam lined box would act as an air bag. BUT if the plane rolled ALL the contents of that box would be stuck inside the foam and FORCED to accelerate with the planes body AS IT ROLLS, BONCES and tears apart. It's rather likely this MIGHT entail transmission of forces greater and more harm-full than no box at all.
Perhaps if the object or person in the box were in a hard shell, that could crush the foam which itself were in a hard case AND had a hard case on it's inside so-as to resist objects being embedded in it?
Thus, I think you have something.
I would be willing to collaborate on a design of a 20 passenger airplane that would pod all passengers in carbon carbon mini newt-suits within shells within foam within shells so-as to offer improved survivability.
And no. With modern materials there is no reason great improvements wouldn't be possible in terms of safety, without allot of extra weight. Each pod should not increase weight by more than 100 lbs, and as it's possible to design the pods to act as structure, then there is even a potential of decreased weight.
Now getting people to sit in pods for a 2 hour flight... in newt-suits? Well, we'll be likely bankrupt in a day.
