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)

: And yet I still don't understand what you're trying to prove, or say.

what im SAYING is when someone is distracted theyre not going to be firing on what your DISTRACTING them from firing on, just like what the UNSC ships were doing, uit doesnt get more simple then that.

: All it takes is one point defense laser to hit the Orbital MAC, and you've
: just disabled or destroyed it. We know the point defense systems are
: easily capable of multitasking and are highly accurate, which makes them
: the perfect weapons to use in this scenario.

: I find it incredibly unlikely the Covenant wouldn't have a single point
: defense turret able to fire at the Cairo. There's almost no risk involved
: in tasking a point defense laser with the job of shooting the Cairo. It's
: not like Regret's Carrier has anything to worry about. The worst case
: scenario would be some missiles getting through and hitting Regret's hull,
: disabling a hangar or weapon system. The trade off here is more than worth
: it.

yet again this is because they were distracted, and your forggeting a CLEARLY vitally big reason, the covies arent as smart as you and i aer they? no, covie forces are not nearly trained to such a standard as human forces, and elites are out for personnel glory, grunts are cowardly and break under pressure, if they had the brains of you and i chances are they would of fired on the station, however, they DO NOT.
: Not to mention that if as you say, there are many human ships distracting
: Regret's Carrier, how in the hell does it make it down to Earth in one
: piece?

This goes back to the origonal point, running interfenrence does not mean ingaging, chances are they were trying to draw its fire but were pulling evasives.
