maybe you could make the weapon effects smaller so they dont look like nebulas forming

Yes you should, it would look better, more realistic

I agree. A bit smaller on the impact animation would be a plus imo.

Suppose that, ships got about 500+ hundred meters(frigate-AmberClap)and archer misile about (i only suppose, that it wouldnt be more) 3 meters, Halcyon class cruiser about 1170 Meters, and you shouldnt add to covenant ships so many lasers, they have got 1 maybe 2 lasers with huge attack power- they "kill" every ship that isnt covered by shield on one shot, and about 4-6 plasma canons

pulse lasers weren't the covenants main weapon, plasma torpedo's and cannons were, pulse lasers were mostly used to shoot down long swords and other smaller craft.

I dont think so, because Long Sword is too small ship and meaningless, in size of one covenant battle ship, to be killed by Pulse Laser. Pulse Laser got down Mussashi I think in Battle of the Reach by one shoot, and it was a mothership of UNSC (something like supercarrier). Then cortana improve covenant ship to shot from every plasma tower a pulse laser in Halo: First strike, they come to Reach again and deystroy i think three ships by one shoots, She has cut them, word for word.

The Pulse Laser Turret is a light Covenant ship to ship weapon. These pulse weapons are known to have been mounted on most Covenant ships including artifact retrieval ships such as the Minor Transgression and Seraph Fighters. The weapon can be used against Starships but is also a likely candidate for a Covenant point defense weapon. Strangely enough, UNSC Prowlers are also mounted with pulse laser weaponry, but this version is likely an independent UNSC development rather than reverse engineering of Covenant technology - pulsed laser technology was available to Humanity as early as 1960, and at least as early as the year 2000 in weapon form.

no, i am sorry my friend, plasma torpedo's and energy projector were the covenant's main weapons. I think your getting the plasma torpedo and pulse laser mixed up.

Cortana modified the Plasma torpedoes to launch thiner strands of plasma instead of boiling it up into an ball of plasma and then shooting it off, this way it acted like surgical laser than an big honking projectile.

Also the Musashi was killed by an covenant energy projector protecting the Orbital MAC platforms.

Secondly, it's not meaningless, if energy projector's and plasma torpedoes are too slow for smaller nimbler craft, your going to use pulse lasers. You can use pulse laser's against other ships, sure, but your more likely to shove a plasma torpedo or energy projector shot down their throat then pulse lasers. Main weapons are the ones used most often, not most effective. Hence why humans typically use MAC Cannons first, then drown their enemy in archer missiles. only battle where the covenant used pulse laser's primarily on a ship was the battle of Chi Ceti IV because the covenant wanted to disable their communications and such.

Yes, I think i have mixed names of this weapons, sorry but you know what i was thinking about, Cortana improve this Plasma torpedo tower to shoot thiner strands of plasma, it was like energy projector that got down Musashi, isnt it or? :/

like yes, except because the plasma torpedo recharged faster meant that she could use it way way more often, which makes it hell more deadly. If you aren't sure, you can always just go just to the halo Wikipedia page where i got most of my information.

the energy projector was mainly used to glass planets and enemy ground troops from low orbit,though the covenant did use it as a ship to ship weapon because its effective range is 100,000 kilometers,but its main purpose was ship-planet,meaning that pulse lasers and plasma torpedoes were the main weps

No, thats a no go, these ships are made cannon, and 2, them are covi destroyers they are gonna be armed to the teeth, so quit ur complaining, UNSC will be able to kill it eventually even though in a halo wars cinematic the spirit of fire and a destroyer colided and the destroyer went on completely unscratched while the spirit took some good hull damage :\

careful you dont add to many lasers, or it will start looking less like a halo battle.

Cortana changed the guidance that controlled the beam projector on the covie ship she captured. She could use it like a scalpel and move it through covie ships. But it depleted the plasma stored so it had a longer recharge time
