How about the Rifters decide to assault the decaying Sangheili capital of Sangheilos? The Rifters' main goal is assaulting the planet, but a, say, team of Spartans boards the main dreadnaught and makes it go "BOOM!"? So while the Spartans fight onboard the ship, the Sangheili can be defending the planet from Rifter infantry. Just a quick idea. =P

That's very close to what I had in mind actually. (Sorry, I didn't see this post until just now. xD )

Since we're gonna be fighting flood on Otto's ship, might I propose something? Two things.
1) During our little firefight, one of us finds the coordinates to another halo. Installation 07, to be presise. The flood Halo. Thinking it'd be a good idea to try and disable every Halo when we get the chance, permenantly, we decide to board Otto's ship, and Slipspace our way to the ring.
Mid-time is the whole Flood on the ship thing I'm assuming that we're doing.
When we get there, a distress beacon is picked up from a downed Marathon-class cruiser. We explore that ship and get a recovery beacon, something that was incorporated into the Spartan armour after the Mk. V MJOLNIR was introduced. In thus, we get a distress message from that beacon and follow it. The two beacons are from two Spartan-IVs, Eryk-050 and Tyler-101. If any of you read my Installation 07 prologue and the first chapter, you'll know who they are.
2) The whole Flood on the ship thing happens and we get marooned on an uncharted moon after prematurely leaving Slipspace due to a malfunction.

Interesting. I especially like the idea of crashing and getting marooned during the chaos of the Flood attack on the ship. I think Specs is kind of fond of that ship though, and it is his. If we're going to smash it up too badly I want to make sure it's alright with him first. Maybe if we could still salvage and rebuild it again he'd be okay with it.
As for finding another Ring, I would like to do that eventually, but we'll be leaving one pretty soon, so I want to wait a bit before we go to another. Picking up a distress signal would be a good way to find it.

I 'like' how my half-assed idea gets the praise.

I said they were good ideas. What more do you want from me? The half-assed one just happens to work best with what we're doing presently.

I never picked a class for it just it is a stealth cruiser.
Personally I am a fan of a Phoniex Class Coloney Ship but its too weak, probally not a good stealth ship and again too lightly armed.

How about a stealthed-up UNSC Destroyer? The standard version features a pair of low-powered MAC Guns, but I think yours would only have one, to conserve power for the stealth generators.

Destroyers can't hold ships I believe.
