Just wish more people were as excited as I am about this new pistol.
Oh I'm sure there are a few of us.. to say the least ;)
I've been thinking about it all and it all seems to make sense. I am assuming that the creature in question is a Brute, so bear with me:
Assume further that the Elites, have in fact left the Covenant for good. That would leave hundreds, if not thousands of specialized roles that were previously held by Spec Ops Elites, Ranger Elites... etc etc. So with only Brutes, Jackals, and Drones to choose from, would it not be logical that the Prophets would elect the Brutes to take up the roles previously held by the Elites? They are after all the most similar to the Elites out of the remaining species..
So then this is where it all makes sense. The Shiny armour, the Brute-ish sidearm.... The Brutes have been forced to fill roles previously held by Elites. So this may very well be a new unit of Brute, like a Spec Ops Brute, or a Ranger Brute... Scary either way.
