Guys, Guys, Guys, al lthe Macs were detroyed by the bombs on the stations, to jooish guy it woulden't matter if we outnumbered them 100 to 1 we woudl still ose. Alright you guys are forgetting the Covenant, a supreme race of warriors the best ships in the Galaxy, Here imagin this it's the 16 or early 1700s Britian who will be the Covenant has just declared war on Spain (were spain (sadly)). Now spain has a formitable fleet not as strong as The British but strong, so the war comes to our spanish port, however, they dont bomb it, they invade, and hopefully you know the British had the stronest army in the Gunpowder age. Anyway they would take deep into Spanish territory.

The point the spanish would die so easily population would not matter, I mean in the rovelutionary war Continentials were scared for their life when they saw the 4,000 Regulars marching towards them. Now replace British with Covenant and the spanish and Americans with us. who wins?

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but,.....wasn't it stated somewhere(update or somewhere else) that the H3 announcement trailer takes place around 3/4 through the game? If that is true then we should be able to play a big chunk of the Earth invasion in H3.

It's possible that I got from the one of the H3 updates, but I'm not positive about that. I think it was said when Bungie held their conference for the press after the announcement trailer to confirm it was in-game graphics.

I'll be really ticked-off if the game starts out with the Covenant already in control of Earth.

Remember Noble.

Remember Reach.

"so they can do whatever the hell they want to, though they also could have not done bombarding tactics since the Prophet of Truth might have known that Earth/"

Very true....the Covenant would never bomb their thing to complete the Great Journey. The only thing I wonder about is, didn't the Covenant and humans joined sides, (or at least allied with eachother for a little bit)?

I beleive it is in the FAQ. They actually say it is 1/3 of the way into the game. And just for giggles. Lets imagine two Covenants. The old one with Prophets, Brutes, and the like, and then a New Covenant. Elites, Humans, grunts etc. Then, in theory, Earth could be under Covenant control. Only which Covenant?
