After the Covenant assault on [[Biko]] in [[2526]], the Assembly analyzed the Covenant's [[orbital bombardment]] capabilities. While they concluded that they were not able to "glass" an entire planet, they coined the term "[[glassing]]" in an attempt to heighten the severity of their fleet's abilities. They also decided on the redistribution of human forces, namely the Spartans and the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine Corps']] [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]]. Later, they discussed the possibility of a Covenant counterpart to the Assembly, and the possibility of contacting it and turning it on their side. In [[2528]], the Minority made a decision to sacrifice remote, low-population colonies in order to determine the Covenant's pattern of operation and design effective countermeasures. In 2530, the Assembly discussed the losses in the war so far, as well as the possibility of re-[[terraforming]] glassed worlds. To prevent human extinction, they also decided that they must be more open with their actions. | After the Covenant assault on [[Biko]] in [[2526]], the Assembly analyzed the Covenant's [[orbital bombardment]] capabilities.
