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.

Well...Halo Wars also had "Vampires"...It's no doubt physically impossible for a vehicle to "steal" health from troops. Let's just say Halo wars' logic is missing. It doesn't connect to the story of the other games, and Ensemble studios messed up real bad on the troops they allow you to insert.
Well that completely different. Vampires stealing health is 100% a gameplay factor. I highly doubt the Covenant would have vehicle that would imobilize an enemy air unit, and steal it's power or whatever, like if it were a tractor beam from Star Wars.
Flamethrowers have been deployed in historical wars that have effectively taken place and have been recorded. I'm not saying they wouldint exist in the Halo Universe, but against the Covenant so openly as main anti-infantry units seems very, very unlikely.
