In the book, it was because they needed to take out the generators powering the Super MAC Guns in orbit. In the game... I have no idea. For da' lulz?

"Only the Fallen are Heroes, while the ones who still stand are villains"

no you idiot, its because they detected Forerunner artifacts on the planet. They only go onto the planet if there is forerunner ruins. If there isn't anything then they just glass every inch of a planet.

Forerunner planets are taken by the troops so they can excavate the tech out of the planet. Durpity durp.

Would have been funny if you spelled recession right, but instead, it's just a bit sad.

The Covenant follows the Forerunners like Gods, so, when they find artifacts of the Forerunners on planets, they aren't going to bombard the planet will they? No, they'll extract some data on it, and be on their jolly way to destroy another colony.

in the book they went planet side to locate artifacts left by forerunners.. and the rock in HFoR gave coordinates to the Halo ring in Halo CE so thats why
