Poll: convenant vs. Protoss who wins  [closed]
Convenant:  39%
(7 Votes)
Protoss:  61%
(11 Votes)
Total Votes: 18

The Galactic Empire lost to the Covenant in votes last time.
Now we try the race of another well known game.
We compare them in the field of space battles and ground warfare.
Only sources are the Halo and Starcraft books.
(Cuz, in starcraft game we have groundtroops shooting down capital warships smaller than the size of a Longsword.)
Halo of course is a much better game, but that doesn't mean the convenant is better.

I find this poll to be very unfair for the Covenant because they really don't have any structures that can build there units right then and there, and also the Protoss have those things that are building, but shoot things. If it were just units than the Covenant would kill them.

The Covenant would WASTE the protoss. The Covenant have more sophisticated technology. And they outnumber the protoss. And they don't have AS many internal conflicts. Plus, the Protoss are all "let's fight for our crappy taken over planet! Huzzah!" The Covenant Inner Empire would be impenetrable to the Protoss. The list goes on my friends. But the UNSC will win! Because HUMANS ARE SUPERIOR!

You know, you don't have anysources for why the convenant would waster Protoss.
Btw, the Protoss might outnumber the Convenant.
Convenant has less technology cuz they have not yet evolved to the Psionic age.

A protoss zealot would be a 10 ft tall plasma swordsman with shields, and psionic abilities.
Can an elite take that on?

the protoss can just build a couple of the turret thingies in the middle of a covenant area... that'll do the job for them... i dont think the covenant can build something without ever even touching what they are building, like the protoss.

The Covenant cruisers employ weapons designed by a species that created a ring of intergalactic death and are annihilating human kind, without using their weapons 100% effectively. The Protoss are at a stalemate with humans in a universe where humans are less advanced then the UNSC. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, and will have their own reasoning for it. I happen to think that the Covenant would win against the Protoss.

[protoss at stalemate cuz of the zerg.
Unsc is behind UED in terms of STANDARD MARINE body armor, in terms of special forces (ghost), in terms of cloaking technology.

Plus the Covenant don't use their weapons to 100% capacity. Even Cortana made them better inside First Strike. But my money is still on the Covenant. They don't need ground troops. Their ships do one fine job to those planets and other starships.

The protoss in Liberty's Crusade had been stated to turn planets into hot ball of super heated slag to clean off zerg infestations. So my bet is that in terms of navies, the two forces are equal.
