In Response To: Re: Does this look like a glassing to you? (Stephen L. (SoundEffect))


: Just an observation. It's not known for 100% but the info provided makes it
: seem like the beam towers on Halo are the test pulses for maintaining
: array firing readiness. The whole 2.1 trillion simulated, etc...so
: although I have no issue with a Forerunner building on a planet, a beam
: tower specifically I do.

: Not sure if those towers fire and dissipate at the epicenter of a Halo ring
: or of they fire at the opposite side of the ring in some receptacle that
: captures and redistributes the energy. If the latter is the case, kind of
: moot putting it on a moon or planet.

I remember those discussions when they were taking place, so yeah--I completely agree with you.

On another topic--do you think the Covenant would even glass a planet with Forerunner structures on it? Brutes, maybe. Elites? Even though the Arbiter destroyed the mining facility, I don't think they would go as far as glassing. Unless there's something in some novels that I didn't read..
