| ==Timeline Confusion==
| |
| I read the Fall of Reach. When did The Autumn land on Reach and needed Noble Six to help them escape? I know the levels says it happened on August 30, 2552, but from what I remember, in August 30, the following happened:
| |
| *The Autumn engaged Covenant in space.
| |
|
| |
| *In space, Keyes sent 2 teams of SPARTAN-IIs: Blue Team (to destroy UNSC Circumference's data base) and Red Team (to protect MAC guns shield generators).
| |
|
| |
| *Blue Team (John and wounded Linda, James went MIA because of his damaged T-Pack) and 4 Marines, returned to the Autumn.
| |
|
| |
| *Cortana "random" slipspace jumped the Autumn to Alpha Halo (Installation 04)
| |
|
| |
| *More things happened after that, but the Autumn was not involved.
| |
| Can someone explain when and how the Autumn got on Reach?

| |
| :::To me, it would seem that they happened before Noble Six helps the PoA escape. The ''Autumn'' partook in the space battle earlier in the day, and was going to jump away, but returned to Reach to the drydock for some reason, possibly for repairs or to retrieve the data delivered by Noble Team. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 14:52, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

| ::::That's possible. The detail I'm unsure about is the whole "marines putting on several house-sized ejectable engines within a few minutes" situation.

| :::::They had several hours to attach those rockets. I'm pretty sure they did that in space before they landed in Aszod, as the Autumn wasn't rated to land in atmosphere and as such, would need the additional engines to make a successful landing. Plus, who said the engines weren't already attached to the Autumn before the battle? They may also serve the purpose of the emergency thrusters mentioned in the book. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 15:21, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

| :::::Thanks for the discussion. I think the Autumn landed on Reach after the Chief and Linda returned, and landed there for repairs + package. Somewhat of an eye opener. [[User:Spartan331|S331]] 16:21, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

| It has already been proven in the Halo novels that the Autumn supported THOUSANDS of archer missiles, she was refitted prior to the battle for Reach to take a squad of spartans into Covenant space so the Autumn was deliberately fitted with well over the normal limit of armaments aboard UNSC ships. Basically she had HUNDREDS of pods, therefore, THOUSANDS of missiles.

| Why does Halo Warfleet claim that the PoA has only 32 pods? Or rather, they seem to count pods as 5-tube groups, since the visual model has 32x5 Archer pods, or 160 pods. I wonder, should one either change the nomenclature of the wiki (refering to pods as 5-tube groups), or change the description here to either 160 or 32x5 for the sake of internal consistency?

| Can I get a confirmation on eight hangar bays? I thought we were only given that there was a launch bay seven (something that had to have been facing forward as given by the opening's exterior hull model and the size itself), possibly above the three prongs/blast shields at the bottom of the ship. At any rate, if the bay did face forward (which it seems to in-game), it would be okay for there to be an odd number of bays. I'm just wondering if the eight number is an assumption or an absolute fact.--[[User talk:Nerfherder1428|Nerfherder1428]] 10:33, March 16, 2010 (UTC) | | Can I get a confirmation on eight hangar bays?

| |
| I didn't look that carefully, but how do we know that the Halcyon in the asteroid field is the Pillar of Autumn?
| |
|
| |
| Because in FoR, the ''Autumn'' fought a covenant vessel int eh asteroids, and there was only one other halcyon cruise left in active service, the ''[[UNSC Dawn Under Heaven]]'' [[User:Honor Guard Reborn|<span style="color:Blue">DarkbelowHGR</span>]] [[User talk:Honor Guard Reborn|<span style="color:green">CommbandD</span>]] 01:48, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

| == Halcyon/POA modifications ==
| |
|
| |
| Should'nt this page be broken up into 3 sections as all the details are mixed, the Pillar of Autumn was a very differant ship when it was first used and then eventually mothballed, then later for the Human Covenant war it was brought back out into service with some modifications, it is then badly damaged at Arcadia and then at a later date it is modified once again for the spartan mission.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| To save confusion this ships modifications should be displayed separatly to show its evolution as in each incarnation it is never the same. The same should apply to the halcyon class itself as no ship could have remained exactlyy the same throughout the whole war from its initial launch.[[User talk:DARKSTORM99|DARKSTORM99]] 05:21, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

| :I'd like to add to that: a better picture should be added not only from ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'', but also from ''Halo: Reach'', like a transparent cutout image would definitely be nice. I know the image I uploaded of CommanderTony's ''Halcyon''-class Light Cruiser may not be enough, especially because it is quite possibly somewhat out of date compared to other higher-quality screenshots from other, newer Halo video games. Actually, come to think of it, both the ''Pillar of Autumn'' of ''Halo: Reach'' and ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'' are aesthetically the same, considering 343i is using graphic assets from ''Halo: Reach''. Also, I think that whatever new image is made should also be posted in the [[Halcyon-class light cruiser|''Halcyon''-class Light Cruiser]] article as well.

| :Well, one sentence ought to do it: ''"The Pillar of Autumn was redesigned in ''Halo: Reach'', now sporting additional antennas, visible defense turrets/cannons, <insert-more-changes-here>."'' Honestly (and joking aside), the design changes wasn't that drastic enough for the article to even consider having a Changes section.

| |
| How can there be 530 ODSTs but only 400 marines? {{Unsigned|162.234.136.110}}
| |
|
| |
| :Probably because the ODSTs were assigned to the Autumn to support the Spartans in Operation RED FLAG, while the Marines were either from the original complement, or stragglers from Reach desperate to get offworld. I highly doubt either number is the typical complement of a UNSC cruiser. The Autumn was the exception to a lot of rules. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 21:22, 27 November 2015 (EST)

| ==Longsword Numbers==
| |
| How can there be only 5 Longswords onboard? Halo: Warfleet states that the UNSC Pillar of Autumn had only 5 Longswords on board but it lost 5 during the Fall of Reach and had two escorting in Halo: Combat Evolved, and then there is the one Chief used to escape? So shouldn't the number be 8? Should a note be made about the correct amount or should the inconsistency be ignored and just accept what Halo: Warfleet states?
