In a Space War, the covenant are stronger, hands down. In a ground battle, the Humans are stronger. The Covenant have no concept of tactics, all they do is try to overwhelm the ground defenders with sheer numbers. In my opinion, The coventant probably have about 65% casulties every ground battle, while the humans have only 25% losses. In space, however, The Covenant lose only 20-30% while, the Humans lose 60-70%.
And for the guy who said the SPARTANs were created to fight the Covenant, YOUR WRONG! They were supposed to be the USNC's new Special Forces Unit. By saying that they were created to fight the covenant, means that UNSC knew about the Covenant by 2501, but in the next 25 years didn't bother to upgrade their technology to much. And it also means that the Covenant knew of Humans by that time to, but wanted to wait 25 yrs to attack us. If they by some strange chance did know, then they deserve to die for being so stupid.
