Re: The Smuggler, Part 2?
Posted By: Kurk <andrew_yoshi@hotmail.com>Date: 6/10/08 12:41 a.m.

In Response To: Re: The Smuggler, Part 2? (Omega)


I've always been iffy about the effect of the halo rings.
Cortana states pretty clearly that "the only way to stop the flood is to starve them to death", hence the halos fire and everybody dies EXCEPT the Flood. That seems a bit counter-intuitive as you would imagine that the halos would simply kill every living thing in it's firing range. But then you get the problem of the Terminals that claim when Offensive Bias was fighting Mendicant Bias, as soon as the Halos fired MB lost 70% of his ships as they were flood controlled, suggesting that the halos indeed did kill flood too.

Can anybody give me a straight answer? Do the Halos kill flood, or just their food?
