Re: Why didn't the Covenant just shoot the MAC's??

In Response To: Re: Why didn't the Covenant just shoot the MAC's?? (Slith)

: This 'SHOWS' us nothing. Except that Bungie felt it wouldn't be fair for the
: big bad spaceship to kill you with no chance to do anything about it.
: Which I'll agree, wouldn't be fun. It's just not quite believable,
: however.

: If the Cairo had point defense systems, it would be shooting down boarding
: craft. The bomb that was on Cairo didn't magically teleport itself there,
: it had to be carried by a ship. If I were in command, and there's a good
: chance my boarding craft were going to be shot down, I'd send more than
: one bomb to each station, just to be sure I got it.

there was moer then one drop ship sent to each station, chances are more then one carried bombs, if you NOTICED, there were LOADS of capital ships, longswords, etc, chances are a LOT of these boarding craft were dispatched, disabled, destroyed, etc, what you see is the craft that get through.
and no point defense systems on orbital MAC's is insanity, quite obviously.

and what do you mean it shows nothing? no, listen to the damn point again and READ IT, when someone is DISTRACTED, againi say DISTRACTED it emans theyre occupied, what are you going to do, take out a station that cant fire on you anymore because your past it or concentrate on a ship that has chances of taking your shields down potentially? do the math.
