The Gremlin is one of the only vehicles that is classed as a “Support Vehicle” Now since there are no support vehicles in halo (Except possibly the falcon) I don’t have anything to relate it to, however I will try to explain it as best as I can. Here goes.
“GASP”
The Gremlin is about the same size as a warthog but slightly bigger. Able to carry large numbers of Infantry. In the halo lore the Gremlin is equipped with a Spartan laser. To make this balanced this would take a long time to charge and even longer to cool down. It can still us its special ability EMP blast, stunning all vehicles. The gremlin will also be unique because of its shields. The shields on the Gremlin can withstand a two Spartan laser shots before crashing. Using a plasma pistol or grenade launcher will merely bounce off of the shield. The shield acts like a bubble shield only moveable and it recharges. The gremlin can also take a beating from the back. It takes five rockets in the back to take it down, without shields! However in the front in the cockpit will take three rockets to take down once the canopy is blown off. Also the Gremlin is surprisingly quick. Being just a tad faster than a warthog this is the ultimate trooper carrier or getaway vehicle. Despite all of these up sides the gremlin has two weakness’s. One is that the EMP blast will not only stun the enemy’s vehicles and take down a Spartans shields but it will also do the same to your team-mates. Two is that if a Spartan can get close enough it can jump on the side of the gremlin and either keep pummelling it or place multiple grenades in it to destroy it. This could lead to some amazing multi kills. Over all it can hold 6 or 8 people (This depends on how big the player count is in halo 5) 1 pilot 1 Laser Gunner and 4-6 passengers.
Let me know waht you think below and next time I will get onto the Cobra! Bye!
As far as i Know, the Gremlin is not an IFV; it does not transport Infantry.
it was made to support vehicles and to fight vehicles, it posses a powerful Spartan Laser-type weapon, and, realistically, has an EMP charge that can fully disable a vehicle.
However, the Gremlin is very weak in terms of armor, as it is a support/Science Vehicle, not a mainline combat vehicle, as such, it is to be supported by more armored vehicles, such as the Scorpion. Its large size probably lets it hold some kind of Radar or other Tactical Equipment, as well as an EMP Charging Device.
It can have a crew of 6, a Driver and 5 additional Crew, most likely to manage tactical computers, and to manage/help target the EMP laser weapon. They are Not Marines however, simply Vehicle Pilots and Specialized gunners.
I don’t remember anything saying it had any shields of any sort, and it definitely does not ave the armor to support up to 5 rocket blasts.
nonetheless, in this case, i guess it could be used to transport Other Players, but a vehicle like this really has no place in the FPS version of halo, as of yet, because 1). it can hold too many players, 2). realistically, a Cobra or Scorpion would be a better tactical choice, and 3). considering that it has Low armor, it would be a killtacular on wheels
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY IDEA
I want the ability in multiplayer and custom games to have the character customization where you first have two choices “UNSC” and “Covanent”. when you chick on “UNSC” you have 3 more options Marine, ODST, Spartan. If you click on one of those 3 options you have the capability to customize them according to which class you choose. when you click on “Covanent” you have 3 choices Kig-Yar (Jackals), Jiralhanae (Brutes), Sangheili (Elites), and you can choose different classes of those 3 main like for the jackals you have the regular shield jackal troops, the sniper jackal, and the skirmishers with the small shields on their wrists. for the elites you have the same classes on halo reach, for jiralhanae you have well idk. but instead of customizing your loadout, each different sub class has their own loadout like anyone that chooses the ODST class they spawn with a shotgun/SMG/AR/DMR, and no armor ability I think if this happened the clan community would become so large on halo 5. not to mention the new multiplayer ideas this could bring. Id love this and thousands of others would too.
I’d love to see some of the cool vehicles that were only in Halo Wars to appear in a major Halo game. (Spartan Assault don’t count since it’s a sidegame and all.) Especially the UNSC Gremlin.
A cool plot twist sort of thing would like this:
Over-charging the Gremlin’s EMP Cannon to the max, Master Chief (or some good guy) releases the ray upon an overhead Covenant carrier cruiser. Even though it can’t cover the entire ship, it fries the control systems enough so that they stall and blow. The craft plummets down to the planets surface, taking out numerous Phantoms and another cruiser along the way before impact. Then have MC salvage the wreck for important info or something more exciting than that. Or just let the debris burn.

Wow. That’s so off topic, it’s not even funny. Why don’t you try making a topic instead of posting it on something unrelated?

Give him some slack, he’s only been a member here for less than a day.
If it’s really a problem for you, use the “Report” button. Being rude to another member, especially a new one, won’t get you very well respected.
