Re: Halo's skitzophrenic canon

In Response To: Re: Halo's skitzophrenic canon (Stephen L. (SoundEffect)) : Except that the Elites would likely want to evicerate honorable foes. To : them, humanity was beneath contempt. Remember in The Flood novel, humans : weren't even desrving of a name, yet the Prophets named them anyway. The : Elites maintained that names were for only legitimate things and humans : were not one of them. I suspect that until the Grunts and Jackals were : getting into real trouble that the Elites finally made an appearance on : the battlefield. : Of course, with all the new fiction and retconning, the original story as it : was written is mostly changed no so Brutes and Elites have been around : forever, but whatever. Elites proceed through the ranks by acquiring kills (well, apparently. Its a pretty flawed idea for when your not at war, but that's what's been stated). Whether or not the foe is 'honourable' doesn't really factor into that. Saying as you mentioned The Flood, that novel also points out that Elite minors are very keen to engage in direct combat. That's not exactly new fiction. The fact remains that only one source tried to paint the picture that the Elites did not make an appearance before Reach. At no point through The Flood or Halo: CE does anyone seem to be remotely surprised in seeing one though.
