With that being posted in your arguement, let's get down to the gameplay. I'm not saying display them out like power weapons bud. If you ever look around your base in ANY map we have used on FC battlenights, you will see that around bases we tend to have a few non power weapons. On Delta Facility, we had a magnum, plasma pistol, plasma repeater, 2 plasma grenades, and a needle rifle strewn across the base. I'm saying that keep our weaponry in loadouts (if we don't use personalized loadouts) primarily UNSC based, and keep most of the covenant/forerunner weaponry strewn across the base as I just pointed out.
They aren't power weapons, so they shouldn't be treated as such, but if we go ahead and flood ourselves with forerunner weaponry... Sorry that doesn't really seem to mesh with the rest of the lore. And yes, if we found an assload of forerunner tech, then sure, but regardless even if we did find that much, if it's a tool you are unfamiliar with, you run scenarios with it before putting it into field use. How many variants of the M16 have there been that have gone through testing before being implemented into the field in full effect?
