Roberto, you are saying the "Hard canon" smacks the floor with the "Soft canon" aka, things not George Lucas.
Halo, the games are hard canon, the books are soft canon.
You keep pulling bull-blam!- about the movies (which NEVER state how powerful the weapons are) overriding the tech manuels/cross section books released alongside the movies from lucasarts, then I'll start pulling bull-blam!- about halo hard canon as well.
You seem to be blinded by nerd-rage at he moment. Just chill and think for a second.
the hardest of all hard canon in Halo is, now, anything released or directly stated by 343i, or the newest canon release.
The Encyclopedia, is, therefore, the ultimate bible for Halo canon. Or anything stated by 343i.
And no where in my post did I post anything at all related to the movies directly stating the strength of Wars' weaponry, and neither, in your apparent blinded mission to pick my posts apart for fallacy, did you ever read me saying that. But I do not have too. I can just look at how they're depicted in the movies and tell you that they are no where even remotely close to giga or magetonnage blasts.
The strongest ship weapon in the movies ever is the Venator "glassing" a CIS frigate in Ep III, a shot which blew the ship in half.
I mean how many times do you want me to say it? The turbolasers on the Executor are supposed to be peta and gigatons. Yet they can't vaporize a small starfighter a few meters long made of normal titanium. Titanium which, I remind you, has one of the lowest vaporizing temperatures in the periodic table of metals.
Thusly, that impact looked more like what would happen if a WWII ship gun landed a direct hit on a WWII fighter plane.
And those same guns only blew out the engines on one very lucky A-Wing pilot who managed to pull a dive into the Executor's bridge. If the guns were as powerful as the EU says, then neither of those ships should have existed. But, as is always the case, the movies overrode the EU.
