Six: Yeah. Misriah build them to extreme tolerances. The stress testing they put each M6 through before shipping them off Mars, in most cases, exceeds what they'll actually end up encountering in their service life.
Most of the time they fail because they take a plasma bolt.

There were a few manufacturing facilities on some of the outer colonies before the Covenant ran through them, but even with the occasional extra facilities, over 90% of Misriah production comes from our iron neighbor.

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Six: -to Suzu- That isn't how orbit works. Orbit is, in so many words, falling towards the planet so fast that you miss the planet.
It's not enough to get something up high. You also need to make sure that it throws itself to the side so hard that before it hits the ground, the planet curves away beneath it.
-to Daniel- Shit, really?

"And my parents, won't let me swear at all."
