This makes absolutely no sense, aren't a powerhouse and a "heaviest ship" almost the same thing?  I'm not entirely sure what we're going for here...  [[User talk:Steve2frag|Steve2frag]] 00:34, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

:The Covenant use '''Carriers''' as the powerhouses, not Cruisers like the UNSC. -- <b>[[Halopedia:Administrators|<font color=blue>Administrator</font>]] [[User:Specops306|<font color=blue>Specops306</font>]] - ''[[User Talk:Specops306|<font color=purple>Qur'a 'Morhek</font>]]'' <sup>''[[halofanon:Operation: HOT GATES|<u><font color=blue>Honour Light Your Way!</font></u>]]''</sup></b> 01:25, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Oh, okay.  A subtle C-word difference.  Thanks for clearing that up!  [[User talk:Steve2frag|Steve2frag]] 16:21, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

In the Template:UNSC Cruisers|UNSC Cruisers Template for the Halcyon-class , Marathon-class and Valiant-class cruisers, they appear to have their own lead ships linked presumably as how [[UNSC frigate|UNSC frigates]] have had their own lead ships, but even then, the UNSC frigate lead ships had their sources cited, I find it an inappropriate misuse of linking if it doesn't have an official source cited. I'm only bringing up this concern for the possible correction or deletion of 57 linked edits that lead to pages that don't exist.

:[[Talk:Autumn-class heavy cruiser|It has been suggested by Stephen Loftus]] (username ScaleMaster117) that each cruisers are named after their lead ships. It should be noted that this is a confirmation from a third-party who was involved in the process of editing the H4 Visual Guide. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  12:56, 29 January 2014 (EST)

::Hey, just saw this. Loftus here. It's standard form most of the world over, but relevant to us the US military follows the form that the first named ship of a new class of ship becomes the class name. When working on the ''Visual Guides'' (both of them but it wasn't apparent in the first book) it was 343 Industries' usage that they follow the same system as the US military in this regard, so the ''Halcyon''-class cruiser was named for the first ship of that class built which would've been the UNSC ''Halcyon''.
::Now, from what I'm seeing in the article linked in this discussion, there are empty pages linked to these class ships. I would agree that if there's no reason to have a page for the UNSC ''Halcyon'' or UNSC ''Valiant'', then fine, remove the links, but that does not negate that the class ships would still be the first off the line. Not a great example, but it's the same way that, say, Dr. Halsey doesn't have any official source or page number that tells you her gender is female, but it's apparent because we've seen her in the game or they use the pronoun "she" in the novels. You don't need the explicit mention to know it's still a canonical fact. So, when you see ''Charon''-class frigate, you know the first ship that looked like the ''Halo 3'' frigate was the UNSC ''Charon''. -[[User:ScaleMaster117|ScaleMaster117]] ([[User talk:ScaleMaster117|talk]]) 13:35, 29 January 2014 (EST)
