Re: Everything I've Come to Expect *SP*

In Response To: Re: Everything I've Come to Expect *SP* (scarab)


: I thought that the priorities were: 1) Kill Prophet

: 2) Photo ruins

The prophet hadn't arrived yet.
And think about it for a second, would it really make sense to go sight seeing after you've just assassinated a Prophet and any Covenant would not only be on high alert, but out for blood?

Once the Prophet was dead, it was time to either lay low or bang the hell out.

: Scrapping with Grunts jeopardizes both objectives. And doesn't 1 take
: priority?

: Were they sniping from the same set of ruins where the Grunts were? Or had
: they moved on?

: If there were different sets of ruins available then take closeups were the
: Grunts are not.

I'd imagine the Prophet takes priority. Cal must have decided that the risk of getting data from that set of ruins was worth it. What's a few Grunts to a Spartan and some ODST's.
Apparently the data is somehow related to Halsey, and I think we know by now that the Spartan-II's seem to have a certain loyalty to her, even though she is a civilian.

Its only a 20 minute short, not a 300 page novel where we can spend a good amount of time with the characters going over these details, the pros and cons, the decision making. :)
Cut it a little bit of slack, lol.
