Last question before I embark on my epic quest to assemble the largest friendly army in Halo 3 possible.

At the moment, I have about 7 marines, 2 ODSTs (I think I could bring 6-8 more marines from the mission start area), and 8 Elites. I'll have 2 Arby's soon but I can only have one.

When you need someone who is at least half-decent at Halo, I'm your guy.

If you have a power weapon with a single shot left, give it to them. Unlimited ammo.

Slap 'em in the triple kill seat of a 'Hog and give him a Rocket Launcher!
Best combination ever!

I suppose I could unleash a Gauss Warthog with a rocket launcher guy upon the 15+ Brutes that can be gathered on The Covenant.

It's a shame that nearly all of them get killed off by the game. I don't believe it will be possible to initiate a war between my two armies since the Brutes won't move from their position until the Covey killing point is triggered. But I could setup an ambush, with my army having an advantage.

It may have been done with mods, but it is certainly possible without the max shields, as long as you eliminate the Ghosts and get rid of the Prowlers immediately after getting the Brutes out (it can be difficult to get rid of them without knocking some Brute shields out).

In fact, I regret modding my shields so I'm going to start over again, with only a fuel rod gun and br modded (for convenience. I can dispose of/abandon them later in the game).

That's not the point though. I'm trying to assemble an army. I give them shots to the head after the battle though. ;) Lots of frags if Catch is on.
