just speculation and theory here.. but sine they put shielding on the MJOLINIR armor.. wouldnt it seems to be easier for the people to supersize it and put it on the ships?.. thus.. the human would have a giant chnace @ winning the war in space...and the war in total.. since they win on the ground... SPECULATE!!!!!!!

i doubt cortana could give scientist what she learned on the covie ship and have the scientist build a full scale working shielded cruiser all in halo2 it took forever just to get the MJOLINIR armor working.

But i do think we will be able recharge plasma pistol and plasma rifle energy. That or we might make a plasma cannon

The humans don't have the manpower to outfit a large ammount of ships with shields. Even if they were to add shields to a few- it would be too late.

MC's shielding is powered by the technology in the back of the armor. How the hell are they gonna supersize that to fit on a ship?

The same way the Covenant do.

They can't win the war with ships. All that's left is Earth and maybe three other planets. No way they could turn the tide with military might. There still are about a hundred billion (quite literally) more Covenant left.

Even if Cortana gives Earth the info, the technicians would be dumbfounded by the complicated technology. Hell, it wouldn't be surprising if Earth didn't have any of the resources needed for the Covenant shielding.

Reach was DESTROYED people that was their last major Naval Base they had I doubt they could ne more ships. The only hope of a defense the Earth has is its new Orbital MAC Guns which we're introduced in the book First Strike.
