Boarding craft were also responsible for the destruction of the [[Orbital defense platform|ODPs]] ''[[Athens Station|Athens]]'' and ''[[Malta Station|Malta]]'' stations. Unlike in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', these boarding | Boarding craft were also responsible for the destruction of the [[Orbital defense platform|ODPs]] ''[[Athens Station|Athens]]'' and ''[[Malta Station|Malta]]'' stations. Unlike in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', these boarding crafts could be clearly seen through the station's windows. The craft used a long boarding tube to penetrate the windows of the station. The entrance/exit to the boarding tube was covered with an impenetrable [[energy shielding|energy shield]] that only allowed their considerable complement of Covenant soldiers out. The boarding tube seemed to function on a similar basis to the [[gravity conveyor]]s found in the Covenant holy city ''[[High Charity]]''. The tube, once deployed, had a superheated rim to melt glass instead of shattering it, therefore cooling down that so air cannot escape.{{Ref/Reuse|cairo}} | ||
