You guys have got some of the information on the Elephant a little mistaken. First of all it can't hold a scorpion, a warthog, and 2 mongooses. But instead a scorpion OR a warthog OR two mongooses. Not all 4 but one of the 3. The reason the back is open in the pic at the bottom is because there is a crane that is used to put the vehicles in there. The top may need to be open to insert the vehicles. (Or maybe it is open for the Hornet nobody can be sure) ALL THE INFO I HAVE GIVEN U IS CONFIRMED BY BUNGIE IN THERE UPDATES AND PODCASTS.

== Best Story of the Elephant == | |||
What's the best thing that's ever happened to you, good or bad, in the elephant in Multi-player? | |||
Once, I got around 20-25 wheelmans in an elephant, but I have a better story. | |||
Capture the Flag - One flag, one elephant. Team has to come to our base, take the flag, run back and plant it at their base's elephant. Unfortunately, this round it's the enemies' elephant. I grab a Trip Mine, 2 plasma grenades and a rocket launcher, and without any vehicle, run to the other side of the map and hop in their elephant. I find no enemy resistance. | |||
I drive the elephant slowly and somehow unnoticed around one side of the map (Pelican side) No allies come to help or spawn, no enemies even come close to me. | |||
I finally park my elephant behind our base, and at that moment, it says 'Flag Taken'. I then realize my mistake, seeing as the enemy has to only walk out of the underground base and walk a few feet to end the game. | |||
But they don't. They go out another exit, to our vehicle spawn, and get in a warthog, driving back to their base. I look out the cockpit with my Rocket Launcher scope and laugh. Around 1 minute left in the game. I overhear an enemy mic say 'Where's our flag point?'. It never occures to anyone that I had the elephant, but my mic wasn't working, so I couldn't tell my allies of my plan. Round ends, and we win the game. I look and see the person with my flag running around in circles, not knowing where his Elephant was.

==ODST Oliphant-JOTUN?== | |||
So I made it my mission today to find every AudioLog pertaining to Sadie's Story in ODST. I got to the part involving Sadie's discussion with Jonas about finding a way to cart him out of the city and saw that the superintendent displayed a VERY interesting picture of an Oliphant with the Jotun logo. So it can easily be deduced that the Oliphant is made by Jotun Heavy Engineering right? Makes sense to me. So can we agree to put that on the page? And what about the military grade Elephant? Do you think that applies as well?--[[User talk:Nerfherder1428|Nerfherder1428]] 01:41, October 7, 2009 (UTC) | |||

:::While totally unrelated to JOTUN, but all to do with Oliphant, it should and must be noted that in the Lord of the Rings franchise, the "elephants" are called Olifants (with one 'f', not two) or Oliphaunt/Oliphant by the Halflings (the Hobbits), and are also referred to more specifically, as Mûmakil, or for short, Mûmak.

<center>'''Elephant''' '''in Campain'''</center> | |||
I really think bungie (or 343i) should accually relise the elephant's capibillitys and use it in Halo Reach | |||
Just think, a campain level where you and Noble Squad (or some marines) have to defend a '''destoyable''' elephant while traveling to another place on Reach, the elephant has its main Elephant gun, Two side turrets, (in halo 3 on forge i put 4 machine gun turrets on the elephant, two on the side, one above the cockpit, and one at the back of the elephant) | |||
and a mongoose or warthog that some sqaud members could scout ahead and then pull back and either take cover in the elephant or drive like an escort beside them. It would be one freakin awesome level! | |||
even having part of a level shooting out of the back of a pelican would be fun. | |||

== Elephant in Spartan Assault == | |||
Okay, this page says the Elephant (M313) is in halo Spartan Assault. It may be from the image, but the actual ingame model is the M312 elephant from halo wars, aka the troop transport version. The two have distinctly different hull layouts. I think it should be reviewed and corrected, especially since the game is both on PC and xbox now. | |||
