Re: Another possible inconsistency *SP*

In Response To: Re: Another possible inconsistency *SP* (Avateur)


: Doesn't work. Considering how long it takes to jump through slipspace,
: Half-Jaw would have never been able to make a jump to Earth on November 2
: or 3, drop off everyone, jump back to Delta Halo, and still make it back
: by November 17 or 18 when the Flood arrive at Earth.

: But I'll screw with the plot hole even more. So let's say that Half-Jaw had
: another ship pick them all up and take them to Earth. When all of the
: ships attacked Truth's Dreadnaught at the same time right before the Ark
: Portal was opened up, why didn't we use that one Covenant ship in the
: assault? Of course, it could have been hanging out elsewhere while waiting
: for Half-Jaw to arrive, but regardless, why did 343 Guilty Spark stay
: behind with Half-Jaw instead of coming to Earth with everyone else? At the
: end of H2, Guilty Spark was still with everyone, so why the break off,
: only to pop in later on anyway?

: Pretty much, considering how long slipspace travel takes, the odds of Johnson
: and them making it to Earth, setting up shop in Crow's Nest, planning an
: entire assault on Truth's ship, and doing what they did in the Epilogue of
: ODST within hours of the Chief crash landing (and still managing to get to
: him before anyone else did) are not very good. Obviously they pulled it
: all off and we "finished the fight," but there are some serious
: plot holes, plot devices (Mr. Frodo), and unanswered questions that really
: should get addressed.

I had always assumed the Marines/ONI on Earth had already well established Crow's nest and Johnson and Mirnada just went there when they got back...I never got the impression they were involved in its setup.
