In a recent Waypoint article detailing Gauss technology, it is clearly stated that the Cobra's guns are designated "M66 Gauss Cannons". So, should these be split again, or perhaps renamed? The Waypoint page makes it perfectly clear that the Cobra's weapons are titled "M66" and are gauss guns instead of railguns. Also, if it matters, the people who write this stuff for Waypoint are Vociferous and Cocopjojo, who are by no means ignorant of the canon, being former AJ staff. --[[User talk:Jugus|Jugus]] 15:07, November 29, 2009 (UTC) | In a recent Waypoint article detailing Gauss technology, it is clearly stated that the Cobra's guns are designated "M66 Gauss Cannons".

:Then it seems we have a predicament. While the cannons seem to operate as railguns and look nothing like their M68 cousins, we must make a decision based on canon alone. On one side we have Waypoint, and the other we have Halo Wars. As much as I hate to say it, if Waypoint info comes DIRECTLY from Bungie, I suppose our canon policy holds that in higher regard. But maybe we can still make a compromise. Does the Waypoint article mention at all the main cannon or talk just about the standard dual cannons? Maybe we could keep the LRG Cannon name for the 105mm big gun and rename the dual cannons as M66 Gauss Cannons. | :Then it seems we have a predicament.
