Re: The Forerunners shouldn't have lost the war.

: But there's no evidence they had these factories that early on. For all we : know, they were very recent developments. They could have built them. Again, alternate, what-if situation. : The same holds true for the Sentinels. By observation of their combat : abilities in the games, thy obviously aren't invincible, and any opponent : who is armed with ranged energy weapons stands a good chance against them. : Just look at how easily plasma weapons kill them. Indeed, but as the Forerunner had some sort of huge disarmament campaign, many of the infected Flood forms would be unarmed and therefore easy pickings for the Sentinels. Those who DID have weapons wouldn't last long before being cut down under a volley of laser fire. ^_^ : The Flood in Halo 3. Compare them to the ones encountered earlier in the : series, and note the length of time between the start of the infection and : when you encounter them. They evolved into much more specialized, : powerful, and dangerous forms. Which were all still easily cut-down, no? : They weren't deploying troops into the planets' surfaces in the first place! That's funny, because a single post ago you said, "When the hell did I say (major military presence on planets had been discontinued)?! I said they weren't sending troops into combat when they could glass the planets from orbit, I never said that major military forces were being discontinued. "
