I believe so. There would have to be some suicide missions. Here is one example: get a human being who is willing to die. Train him or her to move and behave like a Grunt. The Human should be roughly the size of the Grunts. Dress the Human to look like and even smell like a Grunt. The suit should be a concealed nuclear bomb. The yield of the nuke should be adjusted depending on the situation. In space the nuke should be more powerful than if used on the ground. During ground battles where things can get really hectic, the Human in the Grunt suit should sneak into Covenant battle units. Once with the enemy, the walking nuke should wait for the target, the objective, or the opportunity to present itself then detonate him or herself. The walking nuke has to make sure there is little to no human forces that will be affected. The main purpose of this suicide mission is to inflict major losses to resources such as ships, equipment, and most importantly, Covenant soldiers. I wouldn't mind blowing myself up and destroying hundreds of Covenant ships, killing hundreds of thousands or even possibly millions of Covenant troops, and/or disrupting Covenant operations to the point where thre is no leadership and mass confusion which would buy Human forces precious time to come up with ideas for victory. Another good idea to win the war would be to study the anatomy and physiology of the Covenant races. Of course we would have to capture them alive. For the Grunts and Jackals it should be easy. The Drones will prove tricky due to their ability to fly. The Elites, Brutes, and Hunters will be quite difficult do to their superior strength and tenacity. With this knowledge, we could possibly use our chemical and/or biological weapons if they can be infected, causing many Covenant troop losses. Well these are some of my ideas. Let me know what you may have.

Dude, you're retarded. Why would human kind want to waste teh emos when they could just learn to fight?

The shortest way I could put my idea of how human kind could have, lets say, first place if either they were prepared for the attacks on Reach and Earth, so on so forth. Also if the humans (That were not anywhere near Delta Halo) knew that the Elites, Hunters and grunts had a Non-agression pact with the humans.

mabye it can, but the suicide mission thing would never have snowball's chance in hell. Who knows what kind of I.D tech the covenant has. The best way would be to target command and control and disrupt covenant operations. still, the covenant have superior everything, and just about everything we have is inferior.

Only if they made a -blam!-load more SPARTANs. If the SPARTANs were as good as the field comanders, and the squad leader can take out hundreds of them in a mad rush, than hell ya they could have won.

The Sentinel Beam isn't excluded from Matchmaking due to any performance concerns. It's excluded because it's ridiculous. It may as well be firing super-accelerated clowns. - Shishka

Covenant yes, Flood no.

You face an opponent who has never known defeat, who laughs in foreign tongues at your efforts to survive. This is Reply suicide.
