if the bat thinks its in danger it will deliver a concentrated dose of the infection into a corpse to protect itself.

Re animator bats take only a few seconds to turn a corpse into a necromorph. by they time they open fire a twitcher would have closed the gap in seconds. Standard flood without a weapon usually bludgeons its targets to death using modifications in its arms, this wouldnt be enough to take of limbs, flood with marine weapons would be useless as they cannot take of limbs as well(except for explosives), convent plasma technology may stand a chance but the flood would not be dexterous to concentrate fire on a single limb on a single moving target. the plasma cutter is a piece of mining equipment used to cut up the hardest of materials found in deep space mining, with standard necros it can take two hits with the cutter to take off 1 limb. Issac needed to use a plasma cutter to defeat these bad-asses. if enough limbs are taken off they don't die their body shutdowns to a state where it can be absorbed by a necro growth which can be converted into large fleshy weapons, like the Leviathan. usually they can function with only 1 limb(will by stopped if only head remains). You want truly epic Scifi? Read Larry Niven or Iain M Banks and don't look back.A standard necromorph will only by stopped if it losses core body mass like arms/legs. Prometheans seem to retain higher thought and could freely dive into ships and solo all the flood inside.īottomline, Bears is a man of some (but grossly overrated) talent whom 343 seems to give lip service at best and is unduly worshipped on SB.com's den of Halo fanboys. Ridiculous bouncing potatos who get slaughtered by SMGs are a threat to suits that crap on MjOLNIR armor. So Necron warriors and other lowly Necrons would indeed be immune, but Necron lords and other higher Necrons would not. Second, just make a quick search, and it seems that to be immune to the Logic Plague the IA has to be simple, without higher thought. End of.Īnd trying to justify it doesn't change the fact that they're boring, incongruous with the games, and lead by a gratingly annoying mary sue who talks in pentameter.īears wrote himself into a corner and asspulled his way to a flood victory.įirst of all, in which way the are incongruous? The fact that the Prometheans can dive into flood ships without a care for this plague shows that 343 either thinks it's stupid and ditched it or that Prometheans are immune. Where it is said that the Prometheans were immune to the Logic Plague? Offensive probably never let itself be in direct contact with Flood We already knew that the Flood had stomped the Forerunners.Īnd if we go by fluff, both Necrons and Daemons should be immune to poisoned weapons, but they aren't. The Forerunner saga is about the tragedy of the fall of the Ecumeme. A infection that has spread through a considerable part of the galaxy would be far more advanced that what was seen in the games. Where it is said that the Prometheans were immune to the Logic Plague? Offensive probably never let itself be in direct contact with The FloodĪnd the Flood evolves as it spreads, it was stated in Halo 3 and reinforced with Halo Wars. His stuff about the Ecumene is beautiful, but his Flood stuff is eyeroll worthy.Īlso Daemons are solidified energy forms. Generally Bear's depiction of the Flood is so utterly incongruous with what is seen in the games as to weaken the story with a boring invincible villain lead by a rhyming mary sue. Offensive Bias was also impervious to the logic plague. Necrons are souls in robots, just like the Prometheans who are immune to said plague. Why? poison affects both Daemons and Necrons, you could even justify the Necrons with the Logic Plague. Kain wrote: Put in a rule that says that Daemons and Necrons are immune to infection forms.Īlso when I downloaded it I got a mess of scripting.
