    Thank you all for the nice comments, spent quite a few hours making this so it means a lot! To everyone complaining about the video not matching the established halo lore, this battle is not meant to show the Battle of Earth in october of 2552(the one from Halo 2). The video is made from animations from machinma I cancelled a while back, and is meant to show a covenant attack on earth during year 2546. The story is meant to be a alternate reality, starting with the spartans being killed during a surprise attack on the Pillar of Autumn and ending with humanity losing the war by blowing up both Earth along with the covenant fleet.
    I realize i never made this clear in the video itself, so I hope this brings a bit more clarity on what is shown.

      I love the clip I understand you changed some aspects of the Halo law it simply dose not have some things in it like The Mark V "Super MAC"
      UNSC Orbital Defense Platforms or "ODPs" typically mount larger and more powerful versions of the standard Magnetic Accelerator Cannon, nicknamed "super" MACs or "the big stick."
      These cannons fire a 3000-ton ferric-tungsten round at 12,000 kilometers per second, or 4% of the speed of light.[3]
      Against Covenant shield technology, the rounds possess enough kinetic energy to punch through shields, cut through the ship, and, upon exit, still retain enough energy to destroy a second ship, and cripple a third ship.
      It is theorized that if a ship's armor or shields were to absorb all the kinetic energy of a super MAC round, the release of thermodynamic energy would still vaporize the ship. By receiving power from ground-based power plants, orbital platforms could achieve recharge and reload times as short as five seconds
      300 of these ODP where fully operational at the time of the attack.

      I usually break them before they going to pillage. Not so hard using provocation and ambush. So my capital planet is safe. This alternative Earth should be also. Sci-fi western authors more "fi" than "sci". Invading fleet with hyperdrives would not be able to attack right after jump. And they would not be able to jump right to target. Who can open doors - can close it also. Earthers should be able to block close space from hyper-enter and flush outer space with suicide drones on the route of incoming enemy. Space invasion operation is nightmare for invader if defender have any comparable fleet.

      Besides the fact that they had no mines or anything, Earth's defense fleet was pretty pathetic. A group of 75 ships couldn't even handle a group of 15 unprepared covies. And then 1 straight up slipped by like "Oh don't mind me, ima just lewd all over ur base." Like damn. Aren't the MAC guns suppose to 1 shot ships every few seconds? What the heck are they doing?

    Small lore complaint here, the actual Prophet assassination plan was to capture a Covenant ship with the Pillar of Autumn and use it, not use the Pillar. If they approached High Charity in a human ship, they would have been blown out of the sky and the UNSC knew that.

      Actually, the story was made to based on the the original halo lore, but divert from it in 2544 when this story would take place. In this story, the covenant would have learned of the assassination plan and ambush the Pillar of Autumn, which is what you see in the video. It would have been explained further in the original machinima if I had finished it.

    I love how lore accurate this actually is. If the autumn was destroyed over reach right after exiting slipspace, all of humanity's Spartan 2's and most of the Spartan 3's would have been killed because they were all on board for operation red flag, the assassination mission you mentioned. No one would have found halo, nor unyielding hierophant (covie Space Station from first strike). The fleet of particilar justice, high charity with her escort fleet (including over a thousand carriers and cruiser, as well as at least one supercarrier), truth's fleet around unyielding hierophant and truth's 2nd fleet would have all been on earth.
    Also the beginning of the war is portrayed pretty accurate, apart from the fact that you have the wrong shiptypes. (Paris class instead of Charon, halberd instead of hillsborough an sinaris pattern instead of rasus pattern)

    For any one interested, there is a game for pc called Sins of a Solar Empire, which is a pretty great 4x space strategy game. Any way there's a mod for it called Sins of the Prophets, which is a halo mod. You can lead the unsc or the covenant, and play through the human-covenant war. It's really fun, there's even a flood survival mode, which is extremely challenging, since the flood can capture your ships and turn your fleet against you!
    I only mention this because, I feel like most people watching this would enjoy setting up their own halo space battles.

      The machinima I was planning to make with these animations was going to differ a bit from the established halo lore, with the battle for earth taking place in 2545. The attack on earth was going to be a surprice attack, which is why the UNSC fleet protecting earth is so small. I changed a few of these thing for this video to make things work better, but much of this would have been explained if I had finished the actual Machinima. But you are correct about the end, the device detonated was a nova bomb.

      Devin Harris Actually there were two battles for earth. The one you speak of is the battle you see in halo 2 in which the prophet of regret led a small fleet after finding out that there was a portal to the ark on earth, yet he didnt know that was earth. In the battle, the humans destroyed every single covenant ship except for regret's ship which ends up escaping later in the game. Now the second battle of earth happens at the end of halo 2 where truth takes the rest of the covenant armada to earth. This is where the 300 super macs come into play since they destroy most of truths fleet and is left only with the fleet you see on halo 3 yet the humans end up with only a "handful of frigates left".

    Without orbital defense platforms this battle is more of a massacre than actual fight in space battles the UNSC was greatly outmatched by the technology of the covenant and battles were only won one of two ways for them 1) greatly outnumbered the enemy fleet (this still resulted in higher losses for the UNSC and was quiet rare to even happen for the UNSC) 2) tactically superior plays by the UNSC commander and AI assistant and even with such was very hard to pull off still the animation and feel go really well for this video would love to see one with all ODP over earth just unleashing hell onto a unaware covenant fleet

    • @HellsRaven4444
      @HellsRaven4444 7 років тому +2

      The Minbari ships weren't impervious to human weapons. They simply had advance stealth systems that prevented long distance target locks. For humans to get any of their shots to hit, they needed to get really close, which was near impossible as their ships were not only slower but the Minbari weapons were way more powerful and could hit from further range. For the moment with the important leader on board, the Earth ships were more than close enough to allow shots to hit not to mention that they fired first.

    • @mystikmind2005
      @mystikmind2005 7 років тому

      The movie shows various combat scenarios debunking all that and including an Earth ship colliding with a Mimbari ship but doing no damage to the Mimbari ship. So we know they can get close, and if they can get close they can fire nukes, but no, Mr Hero was the only one to think of using nukes - Funny how no one else thought of trying to use nukes during the entire war..... i mean its pretty obvious they would have the capacity to fire a large number of nukes the mimbari could not shoot them all down. The problem is they want to try and make it that only mr hero could destroy a mimbari ship, thats the mistake, and they have to stretch plausibility beyond its limit to do it.

    • @HellsRaven4444
      @HellsRaven4444 7 років тому +2

      Lol what, all those combat scenarios in that movie pretty much proved what I just stated in my other comment, lots of shots being fired and barely any if at all managed to hit, and that suicide run by the Earth Ship did destroy the Minbrai ship. In fact that ship was a prototype of the Omega Class we later see in the series, and the only reason it got close was because the Minbari let it get close as they were playing with the humans then and wanted to see what the humans would do. After that disaster, the Minbari never let human ships ever get that close again in subsequent battles. The only reason those nukes worked was because the crew of the Black Star was way too overconfident and didn't even bother to even think that it was possibly a trap and actually got close enough in the asteroid belt for the Nukes to work.
      Seriously we have ships capable of shooting energy bolts out of the sky in the series, shooting nukes in comparison would be even more easy as they would be travelling way more slower than energy bolts. Also, like I said before, Minbari have powerful stealth systems that prevents long distance target locks. Humans have to get really close for any form of good chance of actually hitting the Minbari ships. This means that any nukes fired, would have to be fired in really massive swarms to even have a chance of hitting Minbari ships and they would also be extremely close to the Minbari ships when the nukes do hit.
      Btw on a small side note here, its actually spelled Minbari, not Mimbari.

      Much more than half of their fleet was destroyed- hundreds of ships were, as well as a covenant Outpost world and it's moon. That fleet was staging there in preparation for an attack on Earth, once it's location was discovered.
      But then, the prophet of regret got a lead on an important forerunner artifact. So he took 14 ships to go check it out. He expected a deserted world or maybe a small, relatively unguarded colony. Instead, he blundered directly into the proverbial Hornets nest- humanity's core world defended by the home fleet of hundreds of ships as well as 300 MAC platforms.

    I love this video! VERY well done! I only have one minor thing to say. The way you portray the MAC guns is a little underwhelming, and this isn't just you, it's a common problem I see. Please, when making further Halo content, keep this in mind: a MAC fires its projectile at a significant proportion of the speed of light. So, when firing, they would look much less like the nice, prepackaged blobs of pew (yes, very scientific, I know), and more like a near instant streak of light, or a small pulse that goes super fast from the UNSC ship to its target. Other than that, thank you for the content, and keep up the great work!

      @@panzerrjcb I didn't say at the speed of light, I said at a significant proportion of the speed of light. A standard frigate-based MAC fires slugs of either ferric Tungsten or depleted Uranium measuring approximately 9.1 meters long at around 30 kilometers per second, around 0.01% the speed of light. Orbital Defense Platforms fire a 3,000-ton slug at four-hundredths, or 4% of, the speed of light, around 12,000 kilometers per second. Keep in mind, these are (relatively) small chunks of metal flying through space with no engine or real thermal signature. By the time especially the super MACs are fired, it's over, there's no dodging that with a large, lumbering ship. And that's also why the ships don't engage until a closer range, because their projectiles are smaller and slower. You are massively underestimating how fast these projectiles are, and massively overestimating the maneuverability of these massively large ships.

      But im a sucker for Halo Lore and i have the fleet books, so i know what im saying: Frigate Macs are difficult to dodge but not impossible, and they lack the firepower to effectively destroy big Covie ships, unless used en masse.
      Anyway, the only weapon capable of destroying all Covenant ships relatively easily are Super MACs or Nova bombs, because UNSC Space tech are inferior to Covenant tech. Before the advent of Infinity, a single Covenant Carrier could wipe out a whole UNSC fleet ( and im not mentioning a 20 miles long supercarrier ), because according to Lore the Covenant ship Plasma Lances are overpowered ( 100.000km efective range, capable of tearing a unsc ship apart ) .

      CapTonLoner actually in the lore, the countries of earth no longer exist. They were disbanded and united under the United Nations space command when the first slip space drives were invented.

      In the lore, it also says the US, Canada and Mexico united to create the United Republic of America, so I'm not so sure about that.

      If that’s what it says then sure. I got my info from Halo Legends and Contact Harvest. Either way, I’m sure after fist contact and the outbreak of war, all internal governments, means of production, and propaganda was taken over by the UNSC and ONI. I also doubt there were any shipyards at earth specifically, but I could be wrong on that.

      It started as US. Then engulfed the whole world once slip space was invented
