This is a no -blam!- moment. How hard is it to believe that They failed? You have 30 odd S-II versus...whats the number at now? 500 Covvie ships? What did you think? 1 elite, half a hunter,2 jackals and 5 grunts per ship? Read First Strike (I'm talking about the old version) Three S-II took out a covvie ship with one nuke. You know what lets put it this way. You and 30 friends vs. lets say 10,000+ people at paint ball battle. Who do you think will win?341 ships. Still. 341 with shields,plasma weapons,greater use of slipspace,tens or thousands of Elites,brutes,hunters and so on. I call that a no -blam!- moment that the 30 odd spartans were killed off. I mean really OP? really? stick 30 SEALS against 10,000 marines. who the hell do you think will win?
314 ships of which far more than half of were eliminated in the Battle of Reach. Heck, just about half the Fleet of Particular Justice was wiped out before the Covenant could even really start the battle due to blundering through a mine-field laid out by the UNSC. And then they suffered incredibly heavy losses throughout the battle because of the SMACs. IIRC, by the end they only had between 80-100 ships at most.
