IM A LEGIT 16

Just reply in that thread, you don't have to make a thread for everything...

No, it doesn't exist, it was probably a typo.

Edit: In Halo 2 there was a Spectre
Edit2: I was wrong, there were big ghost carriers in Halo 2 called Shadows.

Mmmmm, Cheese....

It is a covenant vehicle which is a troop carrier. You destroy them in halo 2.

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

no. that's the spectre.
it's something that was in halo 2. only elites could drive it. it had a mounted turret on top that had probably the fastest fire rate of any weapon in halo, save lasers/beams.
it could also carry 2 ghosts on the bottom of it, and is pretty much the covie elephant.
but half sized.

What's hot, sexy and purple?

Ayane (and the Wraith :-D)

It's a covenant ground person carrier for up to 8 "people" (lol) and one light vehicel. It has also a mounted Shade turret.

Not sure if you played Halo 2, but they were these big vehicles that were supposedly used to carry alot of covenant troops, but you only see them in one level.

Wonder if they'll actually bring the shadow back, it was only in that one moment of Halo 2 anyways.

Actually, it originally was during the pre-XBOX Halo days. However, it was cut from the original and was re-used in Halo 2 in two seperate ways. The first was the use of the name: instead of beign the Covie equivelant of the Warthog, it became a ground-based infantry carrier seen on the level Outskirts. It's design as the Covie equivelant to the Warthog was given to the name of the Covie vehicle the Spectre. So your statement is half true.
