Don't -blam!- with Kerser!

Because in the books they do and if they dont do they go upwards and shoot sidewards or something because if they can they would have destroyed the pillar of autumn on reach.

Sorry for sounding 12 im using one hand to type.

They have plasma banks and point defenses on all sides of the hull.


Is that a gun? Yet again, sorry for sounding 12.

RED BRICK STUDIOS!

Oh dear.

Yes, point defenses are guns.

IN the cut scene in Halo 2 that shows MC floating through space with that bomb... the covie cruiser was forward firing.

52,000 kills in Halo 2 and more legendary playthroughs in CE than you can imagine. I am truly a God.

They appear to not have a plasma line in the front like assault carriers. But I don't see a single plasma line on the entire ship, and they certainly are capable of firing torpedoes, so we can't count frontal torpedo launchers out.

This?

Start at 1:50. It may be shooting other than straight... hard to tell. OF course, it looks like it's coming right out of the hull and out of no port.

I have seen you future

I know that Covenant ships can fire plasma torpedoes forward, which are basically their main guns. It is important for ships to be able to fire while presenting the smallest target for oncoming fire. The glassing beam was only for... glassing.

In time, the tru7h will be revealed.

covenant ships can fire plasma from anywhere, then shape and guide it in midair and direct it towards any target.

Alright you got me.

If they don't have any forward firing weaponry, its possibly because their plasma torpedo's can turn in any direction firepower is needed.

In Halo Legends: The package you see the torpedo's turn around the whole ship to bear down on the spartans

An assassin will always carry on, even after death.

They do have Forward facing guns

At least some classes of Cruisers do anyway.
