So the question would a quartermaster who's had a lot of exposure to different weapon types (which would include covenant weapons) be able to re-enable them?<br/>As for timing that would be a bit more problematical... I don't know how long the Covenant that are on Chubs ship will have been there for, but if they couldn't promise to behave for more than an hour probably rigging whatever explosion releases them from their cages releasing them from their restraints too would be simplest in that regard.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Ah, okay, I misunderstood.  I thought you had meant for them to already be on the planet when they are asked to wait for a suitable Shipmaster.  Now, if they were convinced that there would be a suitable Shipmaster on a planet that is looking for Walking Cannons/Guards/Warriors, they would be patient and wait upwards about two months.<br/><br/>As for the reactivation/deactivation:  That would work just fine.  Reactivating their cannons would be a process not too different than placing a Startan's Mjolner Armor on.  Just be careful that the cannons are highly radioactive during the process of de/reactivating them.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">As for worthiness of the shipmaster all Roger would be able to provide is publicly available information on Ressaw and the Ohana rebels. And as for weight of equipment... 3-4 crates of personal equipment, mostly small arms equivalent to pistols, rifles, shotguns, and assault rifles. Basically what inventory a black market arms merchant wouldn't want to destroy as part of the general escape.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>I think that they would agree to this.  As long as they are promised to be able to battle at some point, they will do so.  Each one is strong enough to single-handedly pull a fully loaded Scorpion with ease, so they won't have issues with that equipment.
