Everybody knows about the Prophets, Brutes, and Engineers. But my friend told me about some enemy named the "Uryla" He said it was an arachnoid type creature, it had six legs, and had 2 huge claws. He mentioned it was super powerful and could crush a warthog, I was curious if anybody else had heard of this.

No I haven't, but it sounds pretty awesome though.

Your friend is wrong. It was mentioned in a weekly update that there might be a huge new covenant who could squish a warthog,but there hasn't been any names or other characteristics. Although I do remember somewhere that the creature has been hinted at as a spider-like alien. I forget where it was from but I think it was in the weekly update.

beacause a lot of the new enemies are first encountered in the books and they would likely be mentioned at all I'm just saying since I've read the books there is no hint of it yet and lots of covenant "things" are told in the books that is not in the game

I've also heard of an enemy like that, I don't know if Uryla is the name of it, I can barely say it. But, there is most likely more enemys in halo 2 because if it was just going to be the same army with brute and propets, it wouldn't be much fun.

in Fall of Reach, Master Chief video-recorded a covenant biatch disassembling a car and reassembling it again. would they be the spider-thing everyone is talking about? i don't remember it crushing anything...but then again they could be the engineers, I could be talking out of my buns and i wasted time by typing this up.

Whoa, I didn't hear of any new covenant units like that ever in the weekly updates, but it sounds like it'll be an awesome enemy to face in Halo 2 if it actually makes it into the game. I think this "Uryla"(since there is no other name to call it right now), will be like some kind of covenant/machine hybrid, that would have characteristics somewhat like a Hunter(heavy blue armor, orange gooey leg joints).

well my friend..YOUR FRIENDS LYING

My thumbsticks will be your Doom.... sorry 'bout that.
My Stats

Man that would be so cool (but a little scary), Halo could use a big non-humanoid alien. Would this thing be smart? or just like a big beast of war? All I remember hearing in the Updates is that the thing was HUGE... and could flip over a hahg.

I cannot wait for this game to come out. I cannot wait to see the new Covies, kill the Brutes, play MP as an Elite, dual wield, kick some ass on XBOX Live, form a clan, kick some more ass, AAahhhhhhHH........it's too much
