Could Covenant Plasma weapons be disrupted?
Posted By: Gryphonosiris <Gryphonosiris@aol.com>Date: 9/18/06 12:58 p.m.

This what brought up a while back that the UNSC could use a large electromagnet to repell covie plasma bolts, in effect making an invisible shield for Marines and other personel. I was thinking about this over the weekend when I was setting up some speakers for a DJ gig I do on the side. As most audio freaks know if low frequency sound isn't in sync it sounds like an earth mover is driving by. This made me think about the magnetic packets that the Covie plasma is sent into. If a very low or very high frequency electro magnetic pulse was directed towards the covies would it cause the plasma packets to lose cohesion and disperse? It's along the same lines as making a glass shatter by harmonic resonance, however it could in theory render 80% of Covenant weapons useless. (the other 20% being the needler, brute shot, Carbine, and Fuel Rod gun as they fire a solid projectile).

Ideas?
