Since brutes dont like elites and elites dont like brutes wouldnt it be cool if you get betwwen em and when the brutes shoots at you you sidestep and the bullet or whatever the brute gun shoots hits the elite and then the elite gets pissed off and starts attacking the brute?

Brutes wouldnt even try, itwould be like a 18 wheeler running over a toyota, some friction but the truck would be demolished.

Brutes

That would be cool to see, even though we have seen the Flood and Covenant battling it out. But I hate those freakin Flood <_<.

Even though we all know this, I think the Brutes would win.

I like elites and I actually think that it would be a fair fight. Sure a brute is stronger but one swipe of a plasma sword and they are dead.

One shot from one of the brutes grenades would blow the elite in half!

It would be interesting to see what a brute flood would look like

Plus, elites are faster, seem able to drive more vehicles, and probably have more numbers.

Devil is Double is Deuce and Joker always trumps Deuce.

brutes are kick@ss, but in a fight i'd have to go with the elite. brutes don't seem that intellegent. grenade launchers useless if you don't have the brains to aim it

Brutes are the Helljumpers of the covenant and the elites are like spartans and yes they can drive vehicles

I said elites could drive more vehicles. Brutes don't seem like high flying banshee pilots to me.

No but they are higher in the Covie Caste and would probably fly those shadows.

Where can you get off saying that the Brutes are a higher class than the Elites?! Not only does the name ELITE mean that they are the highest (next to the Prophet), but it can also be found in the book Fisrt Stike. In the epilogue the story tells of the Prophet of Truth and he is visited by a Brute name Tartarus and there are sometrhing like 300 Elite gaurdsman for the Prophet. But wait....it says that none, and I repeat, NONE of the Elite gaurdsman had ever seen a Brute near a Prophet before. So I ask you why would the Elites be allowed near the Prophets and not the Brutes if they were higher? In conclusion I would like to state that the Brute would at least put up a really good fight...if not win. If you read Fisrt Stike then you also know that the Prophet of Truth also said that the Brute's sheer strength could rip ANY opponent to shreads "even the mighty hunter". And I just remembered that in the book it also describes a battle between a few Brutes and something like 4/5 SPARTANS....that's including the almighty Master Cheif. Now mind you that in this battle I believe two of the SPARTANS were killed, so now you tell me who would win....a creature that almost killed the MC or one that got it's ass kicked in groups in Halo 1?

P.S.: I rest my case by the way....Brutes would most likey win.

Brutes, according to the books, are more favored by the prophets for their loyalty, they are...say..sort of like a guardian to them...

the elites are the brain of the battlefield, the generals, they have both intelligence and power, to me...elites seem more balanced than brutes, on hand to hand, definatly a brute 1 on 1. on massive battles where tactics are necesary, i say the elites

Humans of course have more intelligence than both elites and brutes together..but lack power....bah...anyways...we're the more adaptable race


and the flood? they should all burn in hell. i spare none, for none would spare me

Wasn't trying to be a douche, just letting you know what the case really was. I suspected that you were one of the many to skip out on the books for Halo. Even though the books were as kick ass as the games(excluding the second book...not the same author as the other two....sucked bad), but regardless I accept that you haven't read them and think that if you read at all you should do yourself a favor and go pick at least the 1st and 2nd books up.

Wasn't talking to you I was talking to the other guy that I told before about the Elites being higher up than Brutes in the comand chain....and how the Brutes would kick ass in a fight against the Elites because they nearlt took 4/5 SPARTANS in the book Fisrt Strike.

I'd say it'd be a pretty close match. Sure Brutes are notoriously strong, but so are Elites! If you remember from First Strike, the Cheif was totally unable to pry open a certain door on the Ascendant Justince, and the reason was because an Elite was holding it shut. So that proves that Elites are at least as strong, if not more so, than a Spartan. Brutes may be stronger, but Elites are definately smarter and more cunning. I'd say either one could win (in a fair fight, anyway).

quote from first strike

There was a flicker on his motion sensor-just ahead. It vanished.
John held up his hand. Blue team froze.
His motion detector was clear...but there had been something there.
He pulled out a frag grenade.
The transient contact was back-a shadow moved around the same pillar john used for cover. It moved faster than an Elite-as fast as John
