    Yes i agree with you but i do not think the wraithe should be put into Halowars on the count that it isnt powerful enough to fire very far. I believe you that it isnt a tank though

    What do you mean it isn't powerful enough to fire far? It's not a direct fire weapon, it's a lobber. That means the wraith doesn't have to have a direct los to kill you. All a wraith has to do is hide behind a hill or a cliff and rain down death on you. A scorpion can't do that. They've both got their strengths and weaknesses. It's how you use it that decides the battle.

    Closer, no double posting. And the wraith can kill tanks, you just have to use it right. Actually tanks would actually be more susceptable to a wraith's bombardment because of their slower speed.

    Dont worry i wasnt thinking straight when i wrote last time. I meant that you seem to have to be reasonably close to the opposition to kill them with the wraithe and i know that the wraithe isnt a tank

    For the last time! the wraith is not built as a 'tank'! it is properly used to scatter and pinn down infantry and light vehicles. IT IS NOT MADE TO BE ABLE TO TANK DOWN TANKS!!!!  also, the only reason the wrath does not have the power to launch its cannon miles in h3 is becaue players wouldt need it in any of the maps. The real wraith, as seen in the h3 commercial (with mc and his bubbke sheid trick) and described in the books (first strike mainly) its true ability alows it to fire incredible distances SO ITS A FRIGIN HOWITZER HOW DONT YOU GET THIS!!!!

    Finally someone who agrees with me.  A little blunt, but thats okay.  Thanks for getting my point across., but I have to disagree on u about the tank resistance.  I can easily imagine 2 wraiths taking down 5 scorps. All it has to do is sit behind a rock and lob plasma with the slow tank taking a lot of damage.  I think the light vehicles would be a weakness to the wraith due to there speed.

    I agree with  you Kiewefrog but i dont reckon that two wraiths would take down 5 scorpions.

    Re: Vehicles and guns.

    Couple things that I want to point out.

    #1 That comment earlier about the grunt taking an engine apart and putting it together again is incorrect. That was a huragok. That floating tentacled thing.

    Also about about the wraith not having the power to fire very far and having very little power, I remember reading somewhere that it is supposed to have an ability to settle to the ground and essentially entrench itself so it can fire more rounds at once and have more power to fire farther without as much recoil as it would have when its hovering.


    The past is history, the future is a mystery, this moment is a gift. That's why it is called the present

    I doesnt matter. The wraithe is still no good because the plasma guns on it are pathetic. I feel sure a scorpion tank would beat it in combat

    Re: Vehicles and guns.

    too bad the wraith wasnt like the one in the books, it decimated

    1 shot equalled 20 meters of vehicles, flesh, whatever, gone...

    Yeah it would be a way better combat vehicle then. The only fault with the scorpion tank though is the gun which takes ages to reload which then you would be dead if it was in combat with another vehicle.

    This rasies a new question.  Will there be anti-air wraiths?
    It is the will of the Gods!!!

    Yes then i suppose it would make the warthog a better vehicle then which is good. At least then it would have a chance against a tank lol

    The Closer:
    bob the marine1:

    Sorry bout the vehicle list, I was kinda tired that day, anyway:

    The wraith doesn't even do good as an artillery, the fact that the plasma mortors are so slow makes them basically useless, eccept for pinning down marines (*cough* tasavo*cough* highway)  the scorpian always beats the wraith, because the scorpian cant get hit. 

    off topic:

    just thought I'd post a model of a scorpian (made by me)

    YES RETARD, ITS MADE TO PINN DOWN HIMANS NOT SPARTANS!!!

    Watch who you call a retard you juvenile imbecile.

    We know it's an equivalent to the howitzer.
