Ok death star took 30 years to build; firing charge time equals: Hyperspace to target system Maneuver in front of planet Initiate 3 minute firing sequence Halo Firing time (full array) Sync of all halos to fire at same time 24-72 HOURS to charge up each and fire at same moment If 1 halo is destroyed entire process must restart (sync + charge up time) SWU Imperial fleet; Couple super stardestroyers & super weapons 2 death stars Couple 100,000 star destroyers (1 mile long btw) Countless tie fighters, at ats, at sts, troops and frigates and gunships (attack outfitted imperial shuttles) Just as a start

  • [quote]Halo Firing time (full array) Sync of all halos to fire at same time 24-72 HOURS to charge up each and fire at same moment If 1 halo is destroyed entire process must restart (sync + charge up time) [/quote] You are assuming they are synced, but they do not have to be. And it does not take 1-3 days to charge. Have you never played the final level of Halo 3? That Ring wasn't even completed and it fired within 20 minutes. [quote]SWU Imperial fleet; Couple super stardestroyers & super weapons 2 death stars Couple 100,000 star destroyers (1 mile long btw) Countless tie fighters, at ats, at sts, troops and frigates and gunships (attack outfitted imperial shuttles) Just as a start [/quote] Completely unimpressive. At the end of the Flood war, after the Forerunners had had their empire ravaged and destroyed, they were still fielding individual fleets numbered in "only" hundreds of thousands of ships, each capable of solo'ing a planet. And the forerunners had Death Stars too. They were civilian tools built to crack planets in half to mine them for ore. They were so prolific in fact a Forerunner miner destroyed an unauthorized planet just to spite his boss.

  • Because it was never activated. The Index (the activation key) wasn't placed in the control center until the level Two Betrayals, their last day on the Ring, and then Cortana stopped it by erasing the Index's activation protocols and downloading them into her own subroutines, so only she could activate the Ring. So the Ring never had the opportunity to begin charging in the first place.

  • No problem. Another example of the Ring activation time is in halo 2. The final boss fight with Tartarus takes place entirely while the Ring is charging, and in the window of time, 343 Guilty Spark will eventually say that the Ring is about to fire. So it takes about 15-20 minutes.
