In Response To: Re: Theory about Halo *SP* (Xcruiser)
: I really believe sufficient biomass has to deal with size and intelligence.
: As I have said once before, if something is too small, then it cannot
: perform correctly in Warrior Mode, and cannot become big enough to turn
: into Flood Carriers. If something is big enough to sustain the Flood, but
: is too slow/not smart, it is turned into Carrier Flood. The only drawback
: here is that I believe the Hunter's "shell" of armor was too
: constricting for the Flood Carrier's nest to expand for optimum
: efficiency. In which case, Hunters were merely a feast for the Flood to
: keep them alive rather than put through any mutative state. Grunts, close
: to the same size as children, are not big enough to provide sufficient
: biomass for the Flood, but they were enough to sustain the Flood.

Could be that the Hunters don't measure up in the intelligence department. They are big and scary and strong, but dumb as Jar-Jar Binks. Think Grizzly bear wired up to a car battery, Howitzer sewn on to his arm and stuffed into a suit of armour...
