Are you a Forerunner?

In Response To: Finally! My (late) submission :) (thebruce0)

This is pretty darn cool. As I said, all of the submissions this round were awesome, yours just goes the next step to dive really deep into the feasibility of the structure. I love that.

I think the only thing you missed is the energy fields that form between the discs when it's in defensive mode, providing a full sphere of protection (no, that's not talked about in the books, but it needs it right?). I'm thinking like the style of energy shield from the Shield Wall in Halo 2 or the anti-Flood shielding in Halo Wars. It'd be really cool to go visit those generators. Heck, same with the hard light generators. This just really feels like a structure with a lot of rich potential for cool backdrops in a Halo game.

The fact that only a few hundred thousand Forerunners lived on this thing boggles my mind. I guess teleportation helps where the distance is concerned, but still... seems like a waste. I really wonder what they're doing with the rest of that space.
