Editing Talk:Sh'wada-pattern supercarrier

''This article was [[Talk: Covenant Supercarrier/Merge|proposed to be merged]] with another Covenant Ship Classification''
{{FactOrFictionResolved|06:29, 20 November 2006 (UTC)|[[User:Yamanba|Yamanba]]|This is in fact a [[Covenant Flagship]] and should be merged as such.|11:41, 7 December 2006 (UTC)}}

:According to [[User:Rotaretilbo|Rot]] at 23:15 6.12.06:

:One page 236 of [[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], you will note "The Unggoy Kwassass knew his pace aboard the Covenant supercarrier ''Sublime Transcendence''." Above this, in the chapter data log, it says "ABOARD FLEET CARRIER ''SUBLIME TRANSCENDENCE'', IN ORBIT ABOVE JOYOUS EXULTATION, SYSTEM SALIA". Thus, it can be concluded that not only is the supercarrier a Covenant warship, but it is also called the fleet carrier.
::The [[Covenant Flagship]] may very well not be a Covenant ship classification, but rather an ambiguous term refering to a ship that commands a fleet.--[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rotaretilbo]] 03:24, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

*Also, I would like to question the length of the Supercarrier. Do we know if a Supercarrier is longer than an [[Assault Carrier]] (which is where I presume they get "longer than 5346 meters" as the length)? The Supercarrier may very well be shorter than the Assault Carrier.--[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rotaretilbo]] 03:24, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

== Super carrier ==

It's possible that the ships with five bulbous sections that was 2 kilometers stem to stern was a super carrier. I'm not sure to whether write the article or not. I thought super carriers were the largest in the covenant fleet.{{unsigned|Halo3}} It is still unconfirmed...

But it isn't confirmed, which is what matters.--'''[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rot]]''' 22:40, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

As per Rot. Unconfirmed. Cheers, <tt>-49 Proximal Secant ['''[[User:RelentlessRecusant|<font color="red">Relentless</font>]]''[[User talk:RelentlessRecusant|<font color="blue">Recusant</font>]]''[[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]]''']</tt> 17:13, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

== Already seen ==

Even though it is highly unlikely, I think it is possible we may have already seen the super carrier in halo 2. If you look carefully in the first cutscene of halo 2 a ship will pass under another ship. This ship appears to be much larger than the others. I'm not sure though.-- halo3
:what? hmm...you mean the Assault Carrier passing underneath another ship? I'll see it again. Very possible, as High Charity was mentioned to be defendedby supercarriers.

== Not the assault carrier ==

I know it's hard to believe but look extremely carfully at the fleet surrounding high charity. If you look carefully enough you will notice a larger ship passing underneath a way smaller ship. This is very hard to believe but I think thats the super carrier. If you don't notice it and don't believe me thats fine ,but, if possible try and record the whole cutscene and please study it.--halo 3

As of Halo Reach, I'm pretty sure we can say the super carrier and the assault carrier are the same.--[[User talk:Zervziel|For the Swarm!]] 23:41, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

== Name Change.. ==

From Supercarrier to Fleet Carrier, who is with me? --[[User:Gzalzi|Gzalzi]] 22:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Supercarrier is the ship's classification, Fleet Carrier is its designation. Example: Master Sergeant might be a person's rank while Platoon Sergeant is his designation. Master Sergeant says that the person is of the pay roll E-8 and that he has command over any under that, and Platoon Sergeant means that he is the highest ranking Sergeant in his platoon and thus has special duties. The ship is a Supercarrier, and it also preforms the duties of a Fleet Carrier for the fleet. Think of Fleet Carrier as a disambiguous term like Flagship.

Flagship can go to any ship but it may be different for covenant though I doght it.Fleet carrier and super carrier is practically the same.[[User:Halo3|Halo3]] 04:29, 4 March 2007 (UTC)--Halo3

I think the title "super carrier" is fine just the way it is.After all "super carrier" is it's more common name.It may be possible that fleet carrier can refer to any covenant carrier leading a fleet but like I said "super carrier" should be the title as it is the ships more common name.Even the books Halo First Strike and Halo Ghost Of Onyx use the name "super carrier" more than "fleet carrier"[[User:Halo3|Halo3]] 20:31, 7 March 2007 (UTC)--Halo3

One question, what if assault carriers and super carriers are the same thing.I mean,we only see humans call a specific ship assault carrier.What if thats the human name and perspective of the ship.It could be possible that in the covenant perspective they call there own assault carriers super carriers.[[User:Halo3|Halo3]] 03:36, 27 March 2007 (UTC)--Halo3

Being dat a UNSC battle Cruiser is 8-19km this is prob the UNSC's answer 2 the Supercarrier which is most likely Over 10km and if the Battle cruiser is 19km then the Supercarrier is most likely closer 2 20 km but prob mor or less 12-15 km

The UNSC destroyed 1 and thats questionable at best.. The largest ship encountered by the covenant were Assault Characters. Reach was the first time they saw a ship over 3000m. The first they saw were prob at Unyielding Hierophant. I believe Supercarriers were likely used in the Covenants Defensive fleets. Like patrolling the outer sectors and defending High Charity.

== Picture ==

It would be nice if someone could "dig up" a picture for this starship. I personally haven't found any so far. Is Fleet Carrier canon? It should remain supercarrier unless it is specifically called fleet carrier by someone in the books or games.

== Super Carrier = Assault Carrier ==

The Assault Carriers are massive, and they seem to be the Prophet's ship of choice, could it be that they got the names mixed up, which is common between the novels and the games. I believe it was mentioned somewhere that the Assault Carriers were called Super Carriers in some of the game commentary. They are also often used as flagships and in Halo 3 we see the addition of another hangar bay in the back. So just a theory, but I think they could be the same thing since Bungie has not produced a full ship list themselves, and the only time the Super Carries have been mentioned in GoO, and Assault Carriers have never been mentioned in the novels.

== FINALLY a PICTURE ==
After receiving Halo Wars, I was amazed to see pictures of a few new warship classifications in the included graphic novel Genesis. Something that had been bothering me was the classification of the behemoth ship that attacked the Vostok, Arabia, and Hercules at the Third(?) Battle of Harvest. I hoped to be able to classify it and put the scan up as soon as possible but there was no name given to it. I figured that due to its immense size it would have to be one of the bigger ships, possibly a Reverence-class cruiser or supercarrier. FORTUNATELY, though the name is missing from the small story, what IS present is the ship's size. On a few frames were tactical screens of the battle taking place and on those screens were the absolute sizes of ships involved, one of which, was the ship in question. Using some nifty Loftus-esque calculations and with the size of nearby Marathon cruisers well known, I was able to determine that the ship's length was around 5703.4 meters. A length that could only classify it as one ship. A ship that matches the description anyways. Of course I'm talking about a Supercarrier. As such, I believe it is justifiable to add a picture and information to the article. 
Please contact me before deleting however, as I'd like to defend it if given the chance.

PICTURE: 
[[Image:SuperCarrier1j.jpg|400px]].

I think it should be mentioned in the trivia section that there ''may'' be a supercarrier in Halo Wars: Genesis. I, for one, agree that it probably is such a vessel. Nonetheless, don't do this without getting a few more opinions and consulting an admin. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|&quot;A government strong enough to give you everything you want...is strong enough to take everything you have.&quot; -Thomas Jefferson]] 23:39, 11 August 2009 (UTC)


Yeah, I wasn't sure exactly how to approach it. As much as I hate to admit it, I'm still new to the process. Thanks for the advice at any rate. The other vessels on the tac screen that I used to make my calculations were all in scale with each other and I believe it was right to assume the Covenant vessel in question would be to scale as well. Therefore, the question probably isn't whether or not the length is correct, but more like whether there is any yet-to-be-mentioned Covenant ship bigger than the Assault Carrier. As only the Supercarrier is currently known to be longer than that size, I thought it was fitting to add the pics and info. Obviously, I understand that this is a gray area that needs to be visited by some admins before a decision is made, and by no means am I going to fight this thing to the ends of the earth. I just hoped to give life to a stub of an article. I'm wondering if maybe an article should be created for the unnamed ship instead? Likewise, what should be done with the 8 unknown ships (4 Covenant, 4 UNSC) also seen in the graphic novel? I have them on my computer and had hoped to use the same method to discover their sizes as well. I'd like to see how this article works out first though before I start getting a reputation for rampant speculation. :D --[[User talk:Nerfherder1428|Nerfherder1428]] 22:50, 12 August 2009 (UTC)



I think that's an actual pic of a SuperCarrier, but in the article it claims the Supercarrier is 5,354 m, and who would put such an exact number without a sufficient source? However, seeing as Supercarrier is the largest Covenant ship classification, I don't see what else the above picture could be. -[[User talk:Joseph-G111|Joseph-G111]] 01:41, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

== different size ==

Halo Evolutions stated a different size.
3 km if I rember correct. (mentioned in Coles story)
Check it and if it is true change it please.


Yep. Halo Evolutions: The Impossible Life and Possible Death of Preston J. Cole, page 463:

"Two kilometers long, one wide," Cole said. "Energy readings off scale."

http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Covenant_Battleship
Sounds more like its a Covenant Battleship (2 km), and the artist decided to take a little freedom with scale. Someone care to sort this out?

fits the battleship description, a dozen energy projectors means it could cut through 13 ships without having to fire plasma torpedos, also it has the 5 bulb sections, front, sides, behind the prow, then middle and then the back.

== Merge to Assault Carrier ==

In Halo: Reach, a ship that's clearly a Covenant Assault Carrier is consistenly called a Supercarrier.[[User talk:Mutoid Chief|Mutoid Chief]] 21:20, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

:I second that, even if that ship was beastly huge compared to past incarnations.--[[User talk:Zervziel|For the Swarm!]] 23:46, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

It may look the same, but the size difference means it isn't an assault carrier. Some patrol boats look like destroyers these days, that doesn't make them the same. [[User:Honor Guard Reborn|<span style="color:Blue">DarkbelowHGR</span>]] [[User talk:Honor Guard Reborn|<span style="color:green">CommbandD</span>]] 03:47, September 15, 2010 (UTC)'

:Is there that big of a size difference? Looks the same size as the old Assault Carrier to me. Beyond that, the only difference between the Supercarrier and the Assault Carrier in the Halo Encyclopedia is about 6 meters. That seems insignificant enough for them be both classified as the same ship, with Assault Carrier or Super Carrier being used to describe their role. Ex: Shadow of Intent and Regret's ships were leading full assaults, and the Super Carrier in Reach was a preliminary attack ship that was carrying a large number of forces under the radar (or as under the radar as you can get using a Super-carrier)to attack Reach's surface to soften it up for the main force, but it wasn't leading an assault fleet.

If the only notable differences are that minor, then really, these should both fall under Assault Carrier. The Supercarrier apparently is merely built on a slightly larger chassis, but otherwise is visually the same and functionally the same. Really not enough to justify a separate article if this is in fact the case.[[User talk:Fire Eater|Fire Eater]] 03:25, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

I'll leave it to this assessment.

Arguments for:
*It looks just like an Assault Carrier.
*Much of the literature made it sound like an Assault Carrier.
*It serves much of the same kind of purpose in battle.

Arguments against:
*The name's different.
*It's 6 meters bigger.
*Assault Carriers may or may not have cloaking.

This is sounding a whole lot like the previous argument about whether the ''Halo Wars'' Mark IV was really the canonical default armor, or just artistic license. Something like cloaking is easy to reconcile, we simply never saw them use it. The name is not a hard leap, that is after all a UNSC designation, which could have changed easily later, after they got more familiar with that particular ship's usage. One half of a compound word is hardly a barrier, and seeing as the two look exactly the same, the burden of proof rests on the extraodinary claim in these cases, which is proving that it's different when it looks, acts, and does exactly the same as the two. If there's sources arguing against this, then yes, they are different. Otherwise, the unfounded claim is in their differences, not their similarity.[[User:Tuckerscreator|<span style="color:#6600cc;">'''''Tuckerscreator'''''</span>]]<sup>([[User talk:Tuckerscreator|<font color="#008000">stalk</font>]])</sup> 23:49, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

I think they might do two different things like an assault carrier as it would sound gets right into the action leading the charge in battle

:I oppose the suggestion; if it were an assault carrier, they would refer to it as such. For instance, Buck referred to an assault carrier as an "assault carrier" in ''ODST'', so it is clear that the UNSC understand that there is a difference.

:With Buck it was a later time period, and like I said, the designation may have changed after humanity got more familiar with its use.

Names are never definate, unless they are a classification, and here "Supercarrier" is consistently used in the manner of a nickname, as the official designation (e.i. Type-?? or whatever they use for it) had never been stated instead. What's needed is a passage, perhaps from one of the books or something, where the two are seen simultaneously, or at least both mentioned and referred to by different names.

Assault carriers are identified as assault carriers in the levels ''Cairo Station'' and ''Coastal Highway'', which take place on October 20<sup>th</sup> and October 21<sup>st</sup>, respectively.

::Um, yeah, because the UNSC reorganizing the names of the ship types of the enemy fleet so they aren't stuck with simple nicknames when naval officers look for information of a certain ship is so unreasonable.

== differences between supercarrier us and assault carrier use ==

Id suggest that differences in usages between this and the assault carrier be added. ie assault carriers being used in frontlines and getting very close to  ground combat whilst still being a carrier, whereas the super carrier appears to stay away from direct combat and is used as a tanker for refueling smaller ships. Basing all my evidence on the games just here mind. [[User talk:VARGR|VARGR]] 18:13, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

it only attacked the grafton when it was decovered and later withdrew from the surface. I'm not trying to write 100%here. Thats why this is on the talk page.

Yes I know my "copy and paste" jobs are really bad but here is a side by side comparison.

Also the body of the Assualt carrier is longer compared to the stub of a body that the super carier seems to have.

According to the image to the above (In another section), the Supercarrier in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' looks nothing like the Supercarrier in this image and [[Halo Wars: Genesis]]. In fact, the one in Halo: Reach is an almost striking resemblence to the [[Assault Carrier]]. I do find it likely it may be an oversight by Bungie but its possibly that there are types.
