If you're worried about nukes be far more worried about that Mac Cannon.
TWO MAC cannons. The Thanatos/Marathon Class Destroyers where created to take on the more heavily shielded spacecraft, hence why they carry less nuclear weaponry than most Halo ships of the time. The strategy literally boils down to firing the two cannons to blow a big ass hole in the ship, then missile spam the hell out of it until there is nothing left moving.
Granted, they are really suppose to work in pairings of 3 or four to be truly devastating, so who knows. Point is MAC cannons are something to be more worried about, cause it don't give a shit about your shields! >:D
Oh and I'm okay with the Combine ship. Unexpected idea to say the least. XD
