Re: Only one problem with that theory....

In Response To: Re: Only one problem with that theory.... (Peptuck)

: They didn't necessarily know it was Earth, however :P They knew something was
: at X coordinates with a star and it was important enough to send a fleet
: that lols at Reach's fleet.

Page 198, First Strike:

"There were deployment orders for hundreds of ships: carriers, destroyers, tenders—a massive fleet."

"The terminating coordinates for the Covenant's impending operation was Sol. The Covenant were headed to Earth."

Why send such a massive fleet? If it was just another Forerunner relic they were after, then the fleet would likely be small, like the Covenant that arrived at Halo. They may not have made the realization that it was Earth, specifically, but they knew a formidable human presence would be there.
