My god! You think in 500 years we would have a pretty damn good army on earth. I know we wern't expecting aliens, but with projects like STAR WARS (shooting nukes from space), regular millitary, etc we would have an army of atleast 1 billion trained soldiers with all countries combined. By then we should have nukes in space on platforms and ships just in case China decides to shoot :P or something. So you'd thin when the covies came we would have tons of ships waiting for a war on our planet conviniently located around the planet and we could blow their ships away. The marines and armies in halo seem a little weak for that far in the future. I suppose we lost Reach but I suspected Earth would be one bigass fortress...
If you do not consider the increase in population around the world.. you're telling me that 1/5 of the earth will be military? I dont know, it sounds really stupid to me.. maybe 100 million at most? Why the hell would the earth be a big fortress? So many people constantly protest war right now, imagine in 500 years...
