We dont know what Bungie is going to show us. They gave us a trailer but who knows, that trailer may come from halfway through the game for all we know.
oh and that was way more than 300 ships guarding High Charity. We know because in First Strike the Unyielding Hierophant was surrounded by around 500 ships, and in the level Regret in Halo 2, Cortana says (when High Charity jumps in system) that its the largest covenant fleet shed ever seen.
Also, in First Strike, if i remember correctly, it references the defense around High Charity to being so tight that no rock larger than a meter could get through without being vaporized.
Id say 600-700 ships give or take, surroud High Charity. Say that just over half of those are Brute Controlled, so with the forerunner vessel you send about 400 ships with it, and that overmatches the 300 orbital guns with ease. The Covenant could fire one volley and destroy all the guns.
All i know is Halo 3 is gonna be Incredible.
