With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.
Exaclty.
Even with the little Grunts... If they're gone, the Covenant population would become very small.... Probably too small to wage a very offensive war (since they use Grunts for the dangerous stuff) like they are doing.
Take away the Elites, the Prophets have no military control, nor military brilliance (since Elites are most likely the smartest for tactical use).
Take away Hunters, and I have no clue what would happen. The fact that they are barely tolerant of the other Covenant is incredibly interesting...
Take away Jackals, and you have no stealthy scouts, snipers, assasins, espionage agents, etc..... Of course, other races can be used for this, but the Jackals' superior senses, small stature, and good agility make them exceptional for these uses.
Take away Engineers, and you don't have any, well, engineers.... The Prophets could do this, since they have the brains, but they're probably not as efficient at building/dismantling things.
Take away Prophets, you have little brains and political control.
As I said, this is interesting... more interesting by the minute.
