The ship's mission is to check out their story and make sure that all of the prototypes have really been destroyed. The civilians are gone before the ship is attacked. The novel also makes it clear that the self-destruct took out all of the attacking Covenant ships as well.

Thel 'Vadam SOMETIMES fought honorably, when facing armed soldiers on the ground, but he was noted as being the first Elite to exhibit that behavior. For the most part, they just kind of mowed humans down indiscriminately and cared fuck all about being ~honorable~ while doing so. They were on a mission of extermination, not subjugation, after all - "honor" wouldn't exactly be high on the list of priorities. I mean, fuck, that would be like us worrying about "honor" when wiping out rat colonies, and letting them try to ~fight back~ LMAO The Sangheili are by far my favorite race, but c'mon, let's not make them out to be something they aren't.

Dude... I was a kid when I watched this. I don't remember any of it except the head cutting scene. It traumatised me for some reason. No one's fault but my own lmao. I couldn't remember the name or anything of it for years, until today. Glad I came back to it and saw it properly.

This is the kind of game 343 should make in parallel with the mainline Halo games.

[@rickregina5053]

For some reason, I think they might have missed an opportunity. Imagine this guy as a spartan-4. A pissed, Marv-looking dude in spartan armor.

[@nutyyyy]

I'm glad he was spared that fate.

I wish they still made Halo like this. Fingers crossed Infinite is a good game

18:02, can we just take a moment to take in the size of Baird, he's standing face to face with that elite so either that elite is smaller than average or Baird is just a complete beast.

While this acts as a sequel to that Halo Legends episode, its actually based off of a short story from a Halo book.

[@romeoramirez4980]

The elite size isn’t off, Baird is just massive

[@nutyyyy]

Bird is massive. And the Elites size has varied loads throughout the games. They've been slowly getting ridiculously huge. They were similar size to Master Chief in CE, who is like 7ft 2in.

He was just about as big as the damn elite, this guy was a beast of human being, his sacrifice saved humanity. I don’t think I want to face a grunt then, did you see how fast his trigger finger was ? Shot the pistol so fast it was comparable to a plasma rifle, I’m really intrigued, this video shows the physical attributes and mental ones of the covenant during this war that nearly led to the complete and utter annihilation of mankind as a species. 11:53 12:10
