Do you really think lead bullets and explosives, even with Covenant plasma weapons, would be effective against the shields, speed and firepower of the Imperial fleets?

you people have obveously never read the Halo books. The covenent have the advantage of slipspace(another demension where nothing in the real world is tangeble) and plasma weapons (which refined by cortana cut through a covenent capital cruser, which is quite a feet). Then the humans have their technology. Spartins (5 to be exact), MAC Cannons, and the super nuke, able to destroy entire planets. That combination is very powerfull. Also, the covenent dont have a homeworld, and if they did, they have the technology to transport it into slipspace, therfor avoiding all damage.
Darth Magnevus, give me the statistics of their ships and their numbers and then I will show you why the Empire pwns them with less than one percent of their forces.

Hyperdrive employs a subdimension to go through. You obviously have never bothered to read SW books either.
Second, plasma weapons aren't shit compared to even a rack of turbolasers.
Third, a super nuke? You DO realize how much megaton pressure is needed to destroy an entire planet, right? Start thinking in scientific notation.
Fourth, any engagement on the side of the Covenant would be the Empire wiping its ass with them. For one thing, Covenant are fanatical and not likely to withdraw initially. Second, an SDD has enough firepower to glass a planet using its own turbolasers. This is -omitting- some of its larger weaponry. Third, covenant ships are vulnerable to explosions (Halo 2), high calibre projectiles (Fall of Reach) and have no particle shields (Halo 2 again) as MC grabs on to the outer hull of the ship when he should have been incinerated by the shield since the ship -was- in combat.

Hey guys he told me the size of there capitial cruisers are 100,000 meters. He believes plasma is superior to laser, heck he even tried to convince me that MC would kill Vader.
I mean for God's sake, the Humans used explosives, and flying MATTER to destroy Covenant ships, how is zooming raw energy gonna be less effective against armour with virtually no shielding?
Lead bullets can kill an Elite, but a laser can't?
Gravity Wells do absolutely nothing? The speed of the Imps' tech. means squat? The Force does nothing? Sheer f*ckin numbers, VASTLY in favour to the Empire, will have no effect on the Covenant?
