Talk:Chieftain of the Jiralhanae

erm...

1. Maccabeus was a War Chieftain... not a High Chieftain (my name for this high one).
2. The Covenant likely would not have allowed such a rank... until of course when Truth became hierarch.

Chopper??

Why does it say chopper in the vehicles? I don't recall him ever using one.

I agree with Forerunner, Maccabeus is never described as a High Chieftain. I am not sure on the subject but it is possible that Tartarus became one later in his service. However, all we know from Contact Harvest is that Tartarus simply takes the role of War Chieftain for his pack after killing Maccabeus. I find it hard to believe, as this article must assume, that Maccabeus' ship Rapid Conversion is home of the supreme Jiralhanae pack.

Agreed. There's absolutely no proof that Maccabeus was a Chieftain of the Jiralhanae. And also, he only commanded a pack of 10, and Tartarus seemed to command hundreds of Brutes in his pack during Halo 2. Ciao,
