Halo: Encyclopedia seems to have some, if not a lot of errors. It's not simply possible to wipe out half of Earth's population with only one Assault Carrier that barely makes it to Earth's surface, deciding to make a brief visit to Mombasa. Then again, I'm not sure if you can evacuate millions, if not billions of people in a matter of days.
The covenant Assault was world wide and lasted for a month, to me the numbers add up.
you have to consider people that were actually killed, then the ones that died of wounds, you then have the missing people.
Yeah, but the book states that half of Earth's population was gone as soon as the First Battle of Earth began. It would be far more reliable if it pointed more towards the end of the battle.
How? 15 ships that were mostly desstroyed; left with 7 CCS Battle Cruisers and 1 damaged Assault Carrier after breaking the defenses.
Your saying that killed 10 billion people in a day or 2.
Well lets look at the full picture. Is it not possible that the cruisers let out corvettes that went to deploy troops planetwide?
The MACS wouldn't hit the corvettes and maybe they have camo? don't forget about Spirits and Phantoms being deployed en masse also.
All that being looked at a could honestly see 10 billion killed in a week easy. 1 or 2 days? Debatable, thought all a ship would have to do is "glass" a city and thats millions right there maybe even a billion.
