andrew0568: The Spartans’ ability to jack is limited before they get the “jack upgrade(can’t recall the name offhand).” Plus, the Prophet’s beam wastes a Spartan so quickly that they don’t get much of a chance to jack the wraiths in this strategy.
Warthogs also don't have any weaponry until they upgrade, so they're quite useless against the wraiths.
I should have included a question mark at the end of this thread's title. I don't think it's impossible to beat, hence I asked for your guys' opinions on a counter-strategy. It just seems like the Covenant can get a much stronger and larger force up before the Spartans.
With pre-positioned bases I'm not sure how scouting is applicable here. Plus, what I listed the prophet and ghost doing is like scouting.
No, they can jack normally.
And as soon as a spartan gets on a veichle, he is immune to Y attacks, meaning if he can get onto the wraith, you either destroy the wraith or try to shoot the Spartan off normally.
The upgrade makes them jack veichles quicker and be more powerfuly when they're in them.
And if you edit the OP, it will change the title from General Discussion page.

Now go kill yourself. All the cool kids are doing it.
