If a covenant soldier surrenders, would you kill him, or spare him? I doubt that this would happen in Halo 2, but it would add a factor of realism to the game.

I think the covenant are disciplined beyond the point of surrender. I think they go by destroy your enemy at all costs. They are in a way like the Japanese in WW2. Thats what i think , but you really shouldn't listen to me because I haven't read the books or anything. It would be cool to take prisoners and such though.

You mean that the [color=green]ones that are truly grounded in their ideals[/color] wouldn't surrender. Grunts, apparently, have no desire to wage war. Engineers care nothing of battle. Elites and Brutes on the other hand, want nothing more than to stand over the bodies of their fallen adversaries.

POW's would become a liability, though. Another seat taken on a Pelican that could have been reserved for a Marine.

Well Engineers dont fight and pose no threat, so they don t need to surrender. I could see the Grunts surrendering, but trust me, they know better than to do that.

I think that the Grunts would surrender without a second thought. Besides, who other than the Chief is completely at home on the battlefield, and can think clearly and logically. I can imagine a Grunt tossing away his plasma rifle after all of his comrades have been wasted, and begging for mercy.

If it was a grunt I might, but

if it were an elite or brute, i'd take they're plasma sword and own his -blam-en ass. Followed shortly by humping his corpse.;)
