If we can count the Halo games as fully canon (which I most certainly do) Master Chief with the help of marines and SPARTAN 4s accross the shield world manages to defeat the Ur-Didact, although I agree John is incredibly (incredibly) skilled remember, a singe Astartes can run as fast as a modern car when at full speed, their armour makes your average SPARTAN armour look like tissue paper, a boltgun should in fact deal more damage than a SPARTAN laser, and not to mention that a Space Marine would be physically much stronger... Excuse me? the reason why the Didact lost was due to arragonce, plot, and the fact that he was driven mad by the Primordial. And astartes? Pfft, in Spacebattles and Factpile it was concluded that Space marine armor is only rated as a class-3 while a Forerunner civilian armor is rated at class-8... guess what type of armor the Didact got, a class-20 armor.

And please no wanking, a bolter is not on par with a Splaser, a Splaser is rated as strong if not stronger than a Lascannon. The Didact took an equivelant of a WH40K melta bomb in the gut, and all it did was make him stumble. If this was the Didact at its height, expect the Space marines to be pasted into mush several light-years away while the Didact is sipping tea and watching news.

And 343 said that all Halo books, movies, and games are CANNON. 1. Please stop multi-posting. Simply edit your last post and add extra info that way.

2. Canon has one n.

3. DON'T make mindless accusations of w*** and fanboyism. This wiki is not the place for it, and 99% of accusations are made without any real reason for it.

4. If you already firmly had an answer to your question, what purpose is there in this thread apart from showing off superiority?

The celestial orrery is a last-second screwball that will annihilate everything.

Halos likewise. You can't say you win by destroying yourself.

This also depends on whether its Forerunners in their peak or present-Forerunners.

When the hell did Factpile have armour ratings?

And about the WH40k gods being weak... Comparing stuff to other universes doesn't work. Chaos gods were created to be part of and be balanced in WH40k fluff. Saying they are stupidly weak obviously shows that you didn't consider the fact the WH40k doesn't care about how they compare to other things in fiction.

You see, I can make up a universe that has a quantum paticle data race capable of going back in and forwards in time simultaneously and instantly wiping anyting in existence with a squeegee on a magical whiteboard that contains pictures of bananas. Now I can call Forerunners beyond stupidly weak. Sorry about the multi-posting, still kinda new in this.

Not being a Fanboy (I liked a dozen Sci-fi other than Halo)

And about the Halos, you really need to read the Forerunner Trilogy, the Halos were not a suicidal weapon, during the battle over Charum-Hakkor the Forerunners used it like an every day normal weapon, they just tuned in the frequency to Halo only that particular area.

And yes I know about Chaos Gods balancing out, is just that sometimes their backstory is just iffy. I mean the Chaos Gods were created by only humanity itself 0_o, how about the other Xenos?

And yes I also know a lot of races that could screw the Forerunners, examples include the Culture, Xeelee, Whoverse, Marvel and DC
