Everyone is so interested in the human base that no one has thought about how the Covenant base will be.   And since it will probably be playable I'm really interested to know how their base will be in relation to the humans, and what advanced tech there will be?

Welcome to the HaloWars Forums!

Well, from what is mentioned in the novels, it will probably go something like this:

---

Looking for a clan? Check out the S.T.A.R.S. clan

Arma tuentur pacem

Actually, I think they would have a Com center for a root building, and Methane bunkers would just let you build Grunts.

---

Lethe:

Then you should be pretty happy with the game; it's a lot of fun.
Even if a squad of marines out of dozens of units on a battle field has shoulder pads .25" too thick for a fanboy's tastes :)

Inspires confidence, no?

Good idea.

Its going to be wierd building air artilliry with them. Its a really good idea though, all im going to do with covies is make thousands of grunts with fuel rod cannons and destroy them all!!! MUHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

 

Also good idea with the comm center thing.

Build as many Grunts with Fuel Rod Cannons as you like. I'll just kill them off with Lotus Anti-tank mines, or High Altitude Bombers.

i'm an idiot, i'm on wheels, need i say more?

have not been on this forum for about 10months.............what did i miss?(i have been looking into the halo 3 forums)

Mostly everyone being banned and the obvious change in the site design.

Well, Spartan189, you've missed a lot. You might not remember me, seeingas I had about 300 posts back then, but your sig does look familiar, NewGuy's, right?

Anyways, about most of the cool guys from when you joined are gone, and some new ones came, but a couple of them got banned.

So far, the only map that we know of is Harvest, from the screen-shot on the homepage. ES is still keeping their lipsed closed, but the Community Manager has said he'll be releasing a big update at the end of the month, so if I were you, I'd stick around till then.

 

As for the topic of the thread. I'm pretty sure that this has been discussed before

somewhere...

Outside tripping in the broken city.
Outside kicking in the broken city,
there's nothing wrong with that.

And doing things like that really wouldn't make the game fun its called an "RTS" Real Time Strategy not a destroy everyone and thing with one type of unit. People like you would make the game boring and not very fun.

Then allow me one question.You accept darkness,yet choose tolive in the light.So why is it thatyou loatheus who teeter on the edge of nothing?We who were turned away by both lightand dark-nevergiven a choice?

Yeah I seem to remember talking about this the very second that NT posted the montage.

It was 4 AM and we were just returning from a piss-pants night of Halo 3 amd the live action short.  Then we leaked a second time when NT started freaking out, we investigated, and BOOM!  There it was.

Uhhhhhh............What?

this is covie base

1.methane ten:build grunts

2. anti grav tower, has hunter or jackal sniper

 3.Spirit: builds jackals and elites

4.Phantom: headquarters, builds Field Master and prophet(minor, no throne)

5.Engineer armory, makes resources

6.Gravity Lift: gives ground vehicles and hunters

7.Banshee Pad: build banshees

8.Checkpoint: has an uplink station that gives large line of sight, two stationary shields, and two elites(plasma rifle, no swords) 

9.Shade Turret: Self Explanatory
