Nuclear? What is it?

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

Forerunner fossil fuels.

Antimatter and some form of plasma fusion.

A highly advanced form of magnetic plasma fusion and small time use of antimatter (too dangerous for large scale/non-military power plants).

Deuterium-Tritium fusion. I think there's a single reference to antimatter, but IIRC, most of the sources mention D-T fusion.

Deuterium-Tritium fusion is mentioned in most sources.


No, thats the UNSC. The Covenant use Magnetic Plasma Fusion engines.

Which is mentioned as being fueled by Tritium in First Strike and Deuterium-Tritium in Ghosts of Onyx. And it looks like Helium-3 gets a mention in Evolutions.

“Strange,” mused the Director, as they turned away, “strange to think that even in Our Ford’s day most games were played without more apparatus than a ball or two and a few sticks and perhaps a bit of netting. imagine the folly of allowing people to play elaborate games which do nothing whatever to increase consumption.”

The covenant was stated to be refueling for the sources opog listed in first strike.

The Tritium-Deuterium is obviously going to be a plasma in order for it to fuse, and it is a sure bet that it is confined by magnetic fields. There is no difference.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I know they use Deuterium in their reactors, but I cant remember exactly what it was. Probably Helium-3.

"Plasma Fusion" (Covenant)
"pellet fusion" (UNSC)
Difference?

You essentially said that Opog is incorrect by implying that magnetic confinement does not use those fuel sources. Where does it say that magnetic confinement cannot or does not use Deuterium and/or tritium?
