Halo's firing range

It is "believed" that Halo has a range of 25,000 lightyears, but 343 GS only confirms that figure for Instalation 04.

Would the author of the modifications that were done to this page concerning Christian mythology please move his/her comments on Noah to the "Flood" site concerning water not "The Flood" site concerning the species as this paricular article was intended to be used as an extention of the "Halo: Combat Evolved" article - Thanks

That wasn't me, but why not? Knowing Bungie's penchant for symbolism and religious imagery, I think it is wholly appropriate.

other than the halo's

Well, *most* of us know that the flood was NOT created by the forerunner, but instead, the forerunner found the flood on threshold and a few other planets.

What I want to know is:

was the flood in halo 2, the level 'The Arbiter' already in that building, or were they survivors from the destruction of halo, and if they were, is it possible other flood made it off?

343GS says something about how the Forerunners retrofitted the mine to test offensive and defensive measures against the Flood. They were already there. The heretics tried to use them as a weapon against you, but they got out of control. --OGoncho 08:47, 11 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Flood biology

The flood do not 'love hosts with lots of calcium', but 'utilises its host organism's nervous system and calcium store to create forms it needs to reproduce and fight' (from 'The Art of Halo')

The spores of the flood infection form convert the host's biomass into a homogenous flood biomass, which explains why they are not killed by removal of their head, serious injury and by sniper rounds.

The monitor of 04, 343 guilty spark, reveals a lot about the biology of the flood in the level 'The Library'. The books 'The Art of Halo' and 'Halo: The Flood' also gives some useful insights.

Juggernaut

In a recent edit, an anonymous contributor inserted speculation about what form a juggernaut mutated from. Such speculative notes included Spartan II's and more. -Zero^Talk 21:57, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

destroying the flood

If all of the Flood is currently contained within the Halos, then shouldn't the Humans find each Halo and destroy it with a large nuclear weapon? That would seem to solve the problem of the Covenant destroying all life in the galaxy, to me. --24.10.62.181 08:56, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One hundred billion stars in the galaxy amkes for a big galaxy to hide your Halos in, I'd wager. No doubt the humans could do that, but they'd have to find the Halos first, and they're currently preoccupied with a war with the Covenant that is literally right on their homeworld.

Anyone ever see an infected hunter/brute?

Quote: "But Brutes have really thick fur and Hunters are made out of a colony of spineless worms the infection form need to penetrate into a spine for it to work and even if they had spines theres hundreds on the worms on a single hunter, therefore making it impossible." First, that's terrible grammar. Second, I'll assume that the reason that Brutes weren't infected were because of non-widespread deployment in Flood-infested areas. If a Flood infection form can burrow through an unshielded SPARTAN helmet, it can obviously burrow through a Brute's fur. That ought to be obvious. As for the hunters-that might be right.

About the Juggernaut.

Someone had said in this article that the Juggernauts were meant to be at the beggining of Hich Charity. That is completely untrue. Im a modder and I mod Campagin all the time. Although the Juggernaut is on High Charity's map file, it doesnt have any spawn points on that map. So us modders just use the spawnpoitns for some other AIs and change who spawns there and how many. However, there are a few spawn points through out Quartine Zone and Oracle's map files. Hince the beggining chapter's name in Oracle is called Juggernaut. --Dojorkan 17:03, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
