there's a very simple reason why The Covenant sent Brutes to New Mombasa after the Elites left and this is something i read in an ODST forum on this site. ok, here it comes. Ok, first you have to split Regret and Truth apart . . . think of them as two seperate armies. Now both have their sets of grunts, jackals, and hunters at their disposal. There is a big difference though. The Prophet of Truth does not have ANY Elites in his army, NONE, ZIP, NADA.
The Prophet of Regret does not have ANY Broutes in his army.
In the new mombasa attack in halo 2, Regret's army comes through and attacks the city, nearly destroying it. As you're using the chief you face Regret's army of only Elites, Truth is not there so you don't see any brutes. Then Regret's carrier takes off nearly destroying the city.
Now there are no Elites in the city whatsoever, Regret left, Elites are now gone.
Here's where Truth comes in, remember, his army only consists of Brutes so you won't see any Elites, they are gone with Regret. His army plays clean-up in the city in a way and finishes the job. That is why you do not see any Elites in ODST, it wasn't a plan for Truth to kill Regret, it was battle tactics, strategy. Instead of trying to kill eachother, they're working together to take down New Mombasa.
Now do I believe Truth wanted Regret dead, not Regret, but i believe he wanted the Elites gone, but couldn't do it with Regret alive. This would explain why Truth got rid of the elites when Regret died.
Hope you take my post into consideration . . . if you're still here to read it . . .
Okay, well that all made sense except for two things:
1.- Truth has control over all of the Covenant, the Brutes are his, the Elites are his, everything is his.
2.- You don't beleive Truth wanted Regret dead? Well, you know for all Truth knew, (even up to his death), He did kill Regret. Yah, on purpose. Because you remember when that one cruiser sent the beam down on the temple where Regret was stationed, and Chief was? That was mean to kill Regret, it was Truth's special order, Badda-bing-badda-boom, ding dong HELLO! Smack, damn, dead. He did'nt even know Chief had already killed Regret, so he shot the beam, actually killing Chief too in the proscess of what he thought was only Regret. DOUBLE KILL! That's why Shipmaster Vudamee says "If you had not withdrew our Phantoms we would have prevented Regret's death and killed the Demon"- you see, Truth was gonna use Chief as an excuse anyways- he did'nt know he was acciedently telling the truth [no pun intended]!
P.S.-I know your probably thinking "OMG Ch33f DId'nt DYE! WAZ THISZ GAI AWN> CRACKZORZ?!?!?@!?!", but actually it's part of a theory I have. How could Chief survive being blasted by that beam? Regret being beat to death, and his lifeless corpse being beamed up like Scotty? And The Arbiter receiving a full-on blast by a Grav Hammer blast, and falling into a deep-ass pit? yah, nobody can survive that sh**. Just think about that, if you really need to- so no need to flame.
