In what way can the Covenant counter Hawks?  A single cryobomb kills all air units it touches.  There has to be another way.  Are grunts good at fighting Hawks?

By far the most difficult opponent for me is Professor Anders, though.  Covenant have no other sound ways of counter Hawks than Vampires, which are easily destroyed with Cryo Bomb.  Does anyone know if Grunt infantry fully upgraded could stand up to them?  Needlers seem to be an anti-air weapon in this game, and they are upgradeable ...

I FJ I:To further improve this strat. Just dont make elite honor guards. Their only use is capturing hooks and dealing with arby really early game   EGHs are considered by many to be among the best infantry in the game.  As I explained earlier, the most obvious reasons are their shielding, their cloak (for extra defensive bonus and ...

studmuffin:welcome to the forums! but elite honor gaurds are very useful, I have learned from the computer to just keep them being made constantly and they build slowly so you money will come back faster and whe you make other units your god, alos elite honor guards own ODST, and they are good for hit and run tatics, grab about 10 and send them ...

Foxy:The problem with your strategy is in the early game. The units that you choose are both fairly weak untill they are fully upgraded. Pretty much any form of rush would take you out. To improve, I would do the following. Use the Arbiter as your leader. He is possibly the best early defence unit, and also does great mid and late ...

For the longest time I have been trying to figure out some use for Elite Honor Guards and Ghosts in large numbers.  This was how I stumbled upon a fairly sound victory.  I made roughly 25 Ghosts and 25 EHGs, both fully upgraded and with Shield of the Forerunner.  The result was a fairly impressive force.  The player was quick ...
