It would be cool. Seems like it would like impossible to hit anything, though. Those mortars go really slow. You'd get owned in one of those tanks in multiplayer.

It would be cool in single player but it will probably be hard to aim it

The wraith tank probably will be really hard to aim at first, but if you get really good at it you could dominate.

If you've played with HaloPC mods...
The Wraith is accurate and deadly. It would be very fun to use, and easily-balanced since it's so hard to nail moving targets at any decent distance.

The wraith is meant to be more like artillery than a tank, its just meant for bombardment not assaults like the Scorpion.

That would be quite cool in multiplayer actually, you could bomb certain spots of the map (probably not all the way across though, unless it's a BG clone). It'd be great for (long range) defending.

No it aint. The shadow was the covenant Warthog, have you not seen the concept art for it.
It's gonna be in halo 2 but it was supposed to be in 1.
The covie tank is the wraith. it'd be fun in single player, since it's armoured it'd be hard to destroy, unless there are hunters shootin ya.

that would be cool to distract an enemy incampment with a huge volley of energy mortars while a strike team in a pelican come and gets dropped of then they kill everybody

I think it wouldn't be to hard to aim with, because bungie achieved to nail the grenade's aiming too. And it would be balanced in MP because rockets are very effective against them, and if you combine a sniper with a rocket you can aim very precisely from a very long distance...
I don't see how the covenant would be able to destroy it in halo 1, but bungie has probably created more powerful covenant weapons than in halo 1. (after all, the human weapons already shown seem to be more powerful than those in Halo 1)

I think bungie might have included the wraith in Halo 2 (as a usable vehicle), but i refuse to hope, because I will only be disappointed when they say it won't be available and I can't play the game yet, so I can't witness the coolness that Halo 2 has got yet.
