I can't wait to test out the new Covenant Carbines in H2. They seem the coolest looking. But I'd also love to control the Covenant mortar tank.

Plasma Sword

I think that the new Carbine will make you- and your Covenant enemies much more versatile. It the first Halo the Covenant troops had an extremely short weapon’s range. With the Carbine in hand, the Covenant will be much tougher. And plus, the Battle Rifle is the new pistol- and the Carbine is a Covenant version of the Battle rifle. I think I’ve found my new favorite weapon. ;-)

The Carbine was not in use at E3.

I would definitely say that the needler is the best weapon. If you run out of plasma grenades, just make sure to lock on to your target and u are all set. It has the power of a grenade when it explodes. It is the easiet way to kill Elites on Legendary.

You can see it in the screenshot with the two blue elites, and I think it fires needles.

Actually, they might scan it onto the net somewhere. I would check if I were you. But I'm not. So I can't. Bleh.

At middle range it's the easy way, at short range a full charged plasma pistol then one in the head from the Marine pistol is the Method.

The snapshot with the two Carbine-carrying Elites is in the Halo 2 screenshots section of this site.

There should be even more new Covenant weapons in H2. Don't you think?

Mine has to be the needler. It's not really usefull against my friends but when I connect on them it is too hilarious to pass up.

The needler's okay. I don't really like it though. And it sucks against the Flood. But it is good to use against the Elites.
