Subject: COVENANT AND HUMANS JOIN FORCES???

Read the whole thread before you reply. The Russian/American thing is analogy of a possible Covenant/Human relationship.

Anyone else want to expand this discussion?:)

(A little something to get this discussion going again;)


I have another piece to add to this make believe puzzel of a theory. Say the humans figure out how to use the different Halos as weapons, which many are assuming they will. Wouldn't that set up a situation similar to when we dropped the bomb on the Japs in WWII. When faced with toal destruction would the Covenant call a truce with the Humans? The Covenant alliance would surely fall apart under such pressure, wouldn't it?

It would be great if Human and The Covenants joined together.

Hmmm, I don't see russia turning against america just because they've got treaties with arab countries, and I don't think it would ever become active opposition. More of a demonstrating kind of way.
I see the EU as a perfect example of what the UNSC could do:
Take in ex-ennemies and make them your friends, if it looks promising
On the other hand, that honour system I've seen looks interesting too: what DO the covenant think of MC? Surely they know his name by now (if it says so in the books, please forgive me i havebnt read them), and also fear his mention, althought the Elites would rise up to the challenge, bravely if perhaps foolishly...


Actually It is very possible. All those former soviet states, EU or not all have nuclear weapons. Russia is very scared that they will use these. So they made treaty's (back in the 80's) that Russia agrees to fight along side western forces in the even of an attack(especially with Iran) and in turn they will not encourage a revolt or use of nuclear weapons against Russia. The threat is very real.

The point I'm trying to make is that for NOW Russia has shifted alliances, no one knows about the future. Even if the Russians do go back to their old ways, it only goes to show that alliances aren't written in stone.

Back to Halo, if any Covenant species decided to ally themselves with the Humans, it would only be temporary as well. The Humans would only ally themselves with Covenant species as long as there was a greater threat from the Covenant empire. After the threat of the Covenant empire is no more a new situation would arise, which inturn would mean new alliances.
