Re: Spartan Ops & Enemy thoughts *SP*

In Response To: Spartan Ops & Enemy thoughts *SP* (RC Master)


: - Tell me, if Prometheans can teleport in to anywhere on Requiem, how is
: anywhere on the planet safe? Why do they stop attacking particular areas,
: ever? Why do they only send in small numbers of troops at once? With the
: Covenant it makes sense: they're intelligent beings with limited resources
: far from home that don't really want to throw themselves against a
: meat-grinder indefinitely (even though they seem to do that quite a bit in
: Spops). But if Prometheans can spawn Crawlers out of the FRICKIN GROUND
: and Knights can be brought from seemingly anywhere and then remade at whim
: by Watchers, where is the bottle-neck in their supply line?

My personal theory here: Didact has only a limited number of Prometheans at his command, which is why he's keen on Composing everyone on Earth. There's also that data transmission that Cortana mentions, when you first kill a Knight. It seems to me that you're actually fighting the same handful of Prometheans in every encounter. You're only destroying the physical bodies, which get rebuilt, loaded up with each individual's data, and then they're sent back after you.
