Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

The Covenant spans most of the Orion arm. It is a combined force of eight alien races from multiple planets with populations numbering in the billions. They are capable of almost instant faster than light travel and a single ship can liquefy the surface of a planet. The shields on Covenant orbitals can repel an impact with a moon, and an attack fleet is made of anywhere from 30 to 500 ships. Covenant weaponry is also extremely versatile and much more expansive then that of the Goa’uld Empire.

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

The Goa'uld empire spans hundreds of worlds, its rulers are seen as gods by the masses. The goa'uld have advanced technology using a powerful mineral known as naqahdah, using it to charge nearly all there technology and making their technology nearly impossible to sabotage by someone with no knowledge of them.

The goa'uld have ships that can take a nuclear missile that has been modified to do over a hundred times its usual force without even making the ship rock. They possess personal shields and weapons able to blow through solid rock and at times metal, making their weapons far more powerful then the Covenant.

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

The Covenant star ships alone prove superior to the Covenant. A Single Covenant Frigate, the weakest ship, is almost half a mile long and is more then capable of taking on 3 UNSC medium class ships. These vessels would be on par with the Prometheus without its shields. A single Covenant cruiser glassed the Planet Harvest, and before that a light cruiser obliterated the planets population in a matter of hours. Covenant ships guide the plasma they use with a magnetic field, larger warships also have technology that hits incoming plasma with a magnetic field, effectivly stopping incoming fire. Covenant Warships are miles long, an assault carrier can launch thousands of ground troop, dozens of fighter interceptors, snipe enemy vessels with an energy projector(lance of plasma that has an effective range of about 100,000 kilometers). It is also 5 miles long. Covenant starships are far superior to the Goa'uld. There are at least 12 Covenant ship classes, most of which longer than a mile. Large vessels can take more damage. Goa'uld command bridges are also exposed and easy to hit while Covenant command centers are located within the core of the ship. As stated above Covenant orbital cities can survive and impact with a moon, and starship shields can survive nuclear impacts, and hundreds of ship to ship missle impacts. With a fleet numebring in the thousands and a superior jump drive the Covenant could glass the Goa'uld Empire.

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

Covenant ships may be large and powerful but they are just bigger targets for the Ha'tak's. As from the first game of Halo we know that the pillar of Autumn was able to take out four of the covenants battleships. The pillar of autumn is equipped with missiles, Auto guns, and 1 single MAC gun. Missiles and auto guns could do no damage to a Goa'uld Ha'tak as we've seen by their shields which can withstand nearly any kinetic force.

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

The Pillar of Autumn was commanded by an AI with reactions time far greater than humanly possible. The Pillar is also a Haylcon class cruiser and was picked for that mission for a single reason. The Pillar has a honeycombed hull. Patches of titanium armor lace the entire structure and hallways cross along the entire ship. A plama bolt would melt throught the outer hull and then be stopped by yet another way. The Autumn also had a special super mac gun attatched. It's missles numbered in the thousdand and its main coilgun could fire 3 rounds at a time that shredded on impact. The Covenant vessels were also ordered not to use fatal force for fear of damaging the halo they had begun to dogfight above. The Covenant starships are shielded, heavily fortified, and they are riddled with plasma torpedos and energy projectors. Along with that they can launch a plethora of troops. Jackals are snipers and scouts, grunts counter the jaffa as meat shields and fight en mass with small plasma weapons or heavy ordinance fueld rod cannons. Elites use shields and cloaking systems and are stronger than a Spartan. Brutes are stonger than the elites and can survive multiple plasma burst and still tear their foe apart. Finally the Covenant Hunters are massive living tanks. They can fire a sustained beam of Plasma and are coated in near impenatrable armor. They carry a shield that can sustain almost anything fired on it. The Covenant can also land tanks ranging from battle vehicles to massive siege engines like the scarab. In the sky they can counter the death gliders with the ighly manuverable Banshee and Phantoms. The Covenant dominates on the Ground and the in the Sky

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

Divinity.

The very name Goa'uld means god in their native tongue, the goa'uld empire at its prime had hundreds of planets and access to them instantaneously though the stargate. And then with breakthrough methods of hyperdrive their ships were soon able to cross vast distances in a matter of hours, less then a day to cross the galaxy. The goa'uld's shields have shown time and time again that no earth weapon could destroy them, their ability to take kinetic force unstoppable.

No missile could get through their shields and weak regular plasma would take many hits to destroy them while they could fire a quick fire volley of Weapons Grade Naqahdah with enough force of a 200 megaton bomb with each blast, capable of leveling a city.

On land the Jaffa are blindly loyal not needing heroic sermons by their prophets to spur them on when the going gets rough. The Jaffa's staff weapons are able to blow through solid brick walls, and make large holes in heavy metal armor plating of a highly advanced earth defense base in a single hit.

The Zat'niki'tel can fire blasts quickly and three soldiers can quickly take out an entire squad of others with a few blasts of these formidable weapons. The goa'uld also possess powerful stun grenades able to take out an entire squad of enemies no matter their shielding thanks to a blinding light and piercing sound to overload their senses and cause them to be knocked out.

And with the personal cloak created by them a highly trained Ash'rak could infiltrate a base at will and plant a Naqadah enhanced bomb able to destroy whole facilities if need be. And when the covenant attacks a Goa'uld encampment whole battalions would be slaughtered by the Takunitagminitron weapons set up around which fire lethal blasts at the slightest movement. And even if the covenant use their cloaking devices the Goa'uld have weapons to detect them thanks to their fights with the Retu.

And finally come to the Jaffa's healing ability, while a elite may be shot several times when his shield is down and then die, the Goa'uld forces have no need of worry. Once their forces are wounded they but need to be taken back to rest while their symbiote heals them of all but some of the worst injuries possible.

in hand to hand combat with a Goa'uld system lord any covenant forces would fight a heavily shielded well trained army with a competent and well armored as well fighter. Able to blow through any blockade or locked door with a wave of his hand device. The goa'uld would rule land and air with their powerful weapons, unyielding army, and unstoppable technology.

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

Covenant Ships use the same plasma as the Goa'uld, as all plasma is superheated gas there is no such thing as weak or regular. Covenant ships guide their bursts with extreme accuracy meaning that almost every shot makes contact. Covenant ships do not use kinetic weapons and point lasers would obliterate poorly shielded alkesh and the death gliders. An energy projector can slice through a UNSC Armored Marathon Class cruiser in two shots, once a Hatak's shields fell a medium tonnage Cruiser could wipe it away. Covenant Ground Forces use shielded as defenses rending the Goa'uld ability to blast through defenses inoperable. Covenant armies consist of Snipers which the goa'uld severly lack, Shielded brutes and Elites who could match a system lord on the battle field, and thousands of grunt troops. Coupled with Wraith tanks, Ghosts, Choppers, and armored troop carriers the covenant ground forces would overwhelm the weaker goa'uld forces. Covenat forces use shielded plasma batteries, plasma grenades, shield walls, and a superior tactical knowledge to crush their enemies. If worse came to worst the Covenant could drop a Scarab and overrun enemy ground defenses. The Covenant has also fought dozens of wars on hundreds of planers agaisnt many races. Variety, experience, and brute force would allow the covenant to blast through Goa'uld armies. A pair of Covenant Hunters would easily crush a Kull warrior, if they couldn't be halted with warriors then orbital bombardment would obliterate the creatures. Covenant focres are versatile and can outmatch the goa'uld with vehicles and snipers if the elites and brutes fail. Best of all, the Goa'uld must land troops is unshielded troop carriers and alkesh. The Covenant can beam troops down by the hundreds with gravity lifts, or orbital drop pods allowing them to insert elite strike groups in hard to reach places. Covenant forces use better defenses, a variety of tactial weapins, and multiple species to maximize their chances of victory in any enviroment.

I think we can accept outside input and then the judges can render a verdict.

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

The Covenant has thousands of ships, if you looked at the combined goa'uld fleet in The Reckoning it was pathetic.

Yes but thats because whole fleets had been wiped out by Anubis and the Replicators. Which is another point, Anubis has his super weapon that could be used by any Goa'uld (the Eye's of Ra) and it can destroy whole fleets and planets.

Re: Covenant vs. Goa'uld

There fleet is still weak, A Covenant attack fleet is always upwards of 200 ships. And Anubis's superweapon would be counter by large covenant intallations such as High Charity of the Unyeilding Heirophant.
