Well by now I guess that everyone knows this where according to the NATO phonetic alphabet ... Sierra 117 = S(partan) 117 ect.

But also I noticed that "Charlie Foxtrot" has a "hidden meaning". Where CF = slang "cluster f**k". It basically means ALOT going wrong in a short space/time. Just google it. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=charlie+foxtrot&btnG=Search

I might have changed/added it but I wasn't sure about the Pedia's user/family friendly-ness and political correctness. It makes particular sense knowing the meaning and its reference to the beginning of the level "The Covenant" where one of the pelicans was shot down. Tell me what you think...

:Yeah, it bothered me for a long time. So one day, I finally checked. You're right, that is exactly what it means. But we try to shy away from saying stuff like that, so I feel it should be left out.  If a person is curious enough about what it means, they can search for it themselves. Even though it has an "M-rating", we don't need kids going around using NATO speak. By the way, anyone else greatly annoyed by Bungie's use, or rather, overuse of all these NATO alphabet slang and the sort? Personally, Bravo Kilos is just stupid.

:Yeah, actually. I know I've never called anyone a 'mike foxtrot' or anything of the sort. Always used the entire word. Now there are other phonetic alphabet acronyms we use to designate when things get all screwed up. I suppose things are slightly different in the UNSC military, though. <div style="font-variant:small-caps;">'''[[User:Smoke.|<font color="#666666">Smo</font>]][[Special:Editcount/Smoke.|<font color="#666666">ke</font>]]'''</div> 04:53, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 
Part of its rating is language so let it go.

I'm 100% sure it says asshole, not only can I hear it, if you think about it it's a perfect line. This is the Arbiter's moment of glory; he gets to say whatever he wants. He's demeaning Truth by using such a menial, yet effective, insult as he [truth] is going on and on with his "I'm so awesome" bullshit. That's probably my favorite line in all 3 games because it fits so perfectly, {{Unsigned|The more deluded}}

I doubt he's saying asshole just because he's an elite, and really think about it, with the elites being so 'religious' there's no way he'd say that! Plus, turn on the subtitles, It clearly reads: "And so..."

Well, it looks like I owe everybody an apology. I watched it with subtitles and the Arbiter does indeed say "And so." While I still think "asshole" is better, I'll change it.

With the iwhbyd skull on he says "asshole", without it he says "and so" god2845 feb 12 2009
Actually, as far as I know, the IWHBYD doesn't effect cutsenes like that, it ONLY adds funny speeches/comments by random enemies and the truth holograms.[[User talk:Papayaking|Papayaking]] 21:31, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
Sorry for revival lol, but it would be awesome if Bungie made him say asshole on Legendary, like how Sergeant Johnson's dialogue changes depending on difficulty. [[User talk:Bottletopman|Bottletopman]] 10:53, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

I also have discovered this skull, however I know for sure this is the Thunderstorm Skull, which gives all enemys an advance in their feild, EX: Brute minors become brute majors.
==The Fourth Ring==
I noticed in the cutscene before the flood ally with you, there are seven rings that should glow, but only six do. The one that doesn't glow is the fourth one, for obvious reasons. Is this trivia worthy?
It doesn't glow because the ring was destroyed in halo1 [http://halopedian.com/User:Arbiter_from_Sanghelios]
==Notes==
Figured a section for edits would be nice.
I took out a trivia line that was redundant, as it had already been stated:
*This is the only level that the flood helps you (at least for a while).
[[User:70.111.141.64|70.111.141.64]] 01:16, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
I took out the following line, since it is not true, "This is the last level you will be aided by ODST and marines." Johnson is in fact a marine and helps you on the last level. [[User:70.111.141.64|70.111.141.64]] 03:09, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
Edit: i dont entirely agree with that, the fourth one doesn't represent installation 4, it shows installation 4.1 which is almost complete.

== Where are they? ==
Before you enter the Citadel, the Arbiter mentions that the Flood is scaling the Citadel's far wall.  Well, I always check and never see them. Where are they? I am mentioning this, because either way, I feel it would be something that should be placed within the Trivia section. That's my thoughts, anyway.

== Mysterous Grav Lift ==
There is a random Grav lift near the third tower outside of the map. It has no purpose other than to just be out there in the far distance.
Does this really need to be mentioned here? [[User:Youngrubby|<span style="color:green"><b>Rezo </b></span><span style="color:blue"><b>'Scratoqee</b></span>]] File:LocustHW.png|38px]] ([http://halopedian.com/User_talk:Youngrubby<span style="color:red"><b>Talk</b></span>]) 19:50, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
== Trivia worthy? ==
While looking over the trivia I noticed that they were missing one thing.
If you go on the opposite side of the citdel instead of hearing the Seige of Madrigal, after a few minutes you will hear microsoft sam say a few things.

== Brutes With Battle Rifles?==
When you are in the hornet dogfighting, the brutes piloting the banshees have battle rifles in their hands when you destroy them. This can be seen easily in Theater Mode. Anyone else notice this?
Yes. It's already added in the "Mistakes" section.

== "And so, you must be silenced." ==
When the Arbiter killed Truth, didn't he say "asshole" instead of "and so"?
[[User talk:Hyper Zergling|Hyper Zergling]] 00:53, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
No. It was always "and so". Why would an Elite call someone an asshole? He's more likely to impugn their honour. If he ''did'' call Truth an asshole, I would lose all respect for the Arbiter. -- <b>[[Halopedia:Administrators|<font color=blue>Administrator</font>]] [[User:Specops306|<font color=blue>Specops306</font>]] - ''[[User Talk:Specops306|<font color=purple>Qur'a 'Morhek</font>]]'' <sup>''[[halofanon:Operation: HOT GATES|<u><font color=blue>Honour Light Your Way!</font></u>]]''</sup></b> 22:39, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Do you think they should metion that you can save atlease 2 ODST to the Citadel?
No, that isn't very important. You can save more than 2 when you're playing on Co-Op.

I was play through the level Coop with two other people. At the point when hocus drops off marines and mongooses (just after you destroy the AA wraith)
The third player succeeded in getting on board the pelican and was transported up the mountainside at the end of the map. I don't see it on the page, should i add it? I will try and get a pic. [[User talk:Molotovsniper|Molotovsniper]] 07:54, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
:This is not a glitch. It is possible to get in the pelican and will normally take you upwards until an invisible wall pushes you off.

== More towers? ==
I was playing this level the other day to help my friend complete Legendary. We got to the third tower and I noticed if you look out into the distance you can see the silhouette of three more towers.
