The bigger worry in my mind is if the Replicators start absorbing Halo tech from the... [i]plentiful[/i] options that this carrier can provide. The Malevolence losing some droids to the Replicators isn't really a problem, since those things are -generally speaking- mass produced trash that won't give the Replicators much of anything they don't already, but Halo tech? That might be... an [i]issue[/i].

Oh yeah definitely, one of those Urpeon-pattern lances oneshots a UNSC Marathon-class heavy cruiser with complete ease, plus the Covies can do pinpoint accurate slipspace jumps, which Star Wars FTL cannot do, so a Covie slipspace drive can place that Assault Carrier anywhere to absolutely fucking body a target before they react, as such a short range jump doesn't incur a noticable time dilation penalty
