How've you done the plasma torpedoes? Will they look or act anything like the Romulan plasma torps in Star Trek? But purple? :P
i believe there is a pic on halowikia at the covenent ccs cruiser ship where it shows a ccs shooting what i think is plasma torpedoes :D hope it helps.
NOOO THE FRIGATE!!...those are my favorites :( small or not lol
Is that an energy projector or plasma torpedo that's wasting the frigate?
Energy Projector, in the background you see the pulse lasers firing at the other frigates and the lateral lines of the Assault Carrier glowing for the imminent plasma torpedo launch :P
Wow, all bases covered. Nicely done!
nice freaking job, really detailed, i cant wait till i can shoot my own mac round :D
The only time covenant ship shot a powerful streams of anything like that was when Cortana hacked the covenant cruiser turrets and discovered that they can shoot steams of plasma which are more powerful than normal plasma bolts and melted away few covie capital ships with it. But it also melted away the guns itself and the covenant themselves have actually no idea their guns can do that. It was in the 3rd novel I think. Covenant ships only fire bolts and torpedoes but you do what you want, nevermind me, okay?
Covenant also use Energy Projectors as discussed in the 2nd book and seen in Halo 2 and 3.
That is what is being fired at the Frigate in this picture.
It's true what Whizzard said, the Covenant didn't know about the Energy Projectors until Cortana invented it whilst on that covie ship in First Strike ( 3rd novel ) but the covenant somehow stole that data from cortana via their own A.I if i'm correct. Since then the covenant have been seen using the Energy Projectors (halo 2 for the first time if i'm correct)
We never said when the mod takes place.
Energy Projecters became standard weapons on Assault Carriers AND CCS's at some point during the war, the Sniper Ship in FoR most likely was an early or even a more advanced version, it's used by ships in all books and in the games, why wouldn't we include it?
Thats not true, they had them at the battle of reach.
No they only stole her new slipspace theory and energy projectors are different to plasma trurrets and they had energy projectors at the battle of harvest
That's correct i don't remember if was at the battle of reach or sigma octanus IV, as descript in "the fall of reach", there was one covenant capitalship firing whit Energy Projecters.
I know what your thinking, and it's crazy.
i think than the energy projectors are a soo powerfull ultraviolet laser... in fall of reach in the final battle the flag ship (detroyed by the pillar of autum) has something like that... and it is more the covenant dont have any datta from cortana soo they can have any plasma "laser"... what else
incredible work the cruiser and the frigate
Logically, the idea that the energy projector is based on cortana's modification of a plasma weapon is faulty, given that she discovered it not long before they got back to earth and we SEE energy projectors are the standard weaponry on large ships, and secondly, we see energy projectors earlier than that in the same novel that it appears, when the covenant blast a hole through reach's crust to reach the spartans in the chamber and then shove a gravity lift through the hole to land troops.
actually, the assault carrier's energy projector is at the front of the ship, like you can see on that picture : Halo.wikia.com
OH SHT IT HAS A BEAM UNDERNEATH TOO!!!!
the carrier and frigate geting wasted reminds me of an in game moument from halo but i cant remember oh well
