I think its pretty well known that there will be fighting on the covenant homeworld. I cant be certain, but I remember reading it somewhere on b.net. Anyhow, i have two questions/points

1) Do the covenants have a singular homeworld, or do they each still live on their own planets.(Or possibly both, each races own planet, as well as a planet where they all come together)

2) I think that if any fighting occurs in the covenants neighborhood, it would be quite interesting to fight on the Grunt's home planet. They will have no annoying mask, no giant metal tank that is the size of the Grunt itself. Perhaps there is more gravity, so that the grunts can make use of their powerful forelimbs and big pads(hands & feet). It would be an interesting sight to see a lone grunt swiftly, and freely moving through the battlefield, while calling to its fellow warriors in Grunty tongue and tearing apart a lone unit of marines. Difficulty and Grunts. An interesting Combination

oh yeah ive never read the books
and im a huge grunt fan
GRUNTS RULE

No, I doubt that the convenant will have their own seperate homeworlds. I remember reading about their homeworld too and it just said the convenant homeworld not grunt homeworld or elite homeworld. Plus it would be kind of boring going through a level with just one type of enemy.

1) Well, it's not mentioned really as far as I know, but I would imagine that each race would have their own homeworld with one as the homeworld for the whole Covenant, but this is just what I think.

2) Heh heh, those grunts are so cute when I see them in Halo...that is, until they start shooting plasma and needlers at me. I always have to teach them not to do that, but it always ends up with their skull caved in with a giant fist imprint. ;-) But I think it would be nice to see what the Grunts are like on their homeworld. Maybe we'll find out what the food nipples are there...

very interesting i must say. i think the grunt fart thing is the best thing i've read all day because it lightens the mood around the forums. everyone's so serious, and there's really not much more to be said about the games features, that is until bungie officially releases new info.

Have you ever looked at the concept art for halo? it shows what a grunt looks like without a mask, and they look totally badass. And in the books they are way more aggressive. I hope that master chief sticks it to the Covenant on their turf, by possibly blowing up one of their manufacturing bases or something, you know, something that would really hurt the covenant.
