''Maugen''-pattern cruisers were introduced into Covenant service in the [[Ages of Reclamation|Fifth Age of Reclamation]];{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} around the time that [[human]]ity was only just beginning to make its own early long-distance ocean voyages on [[Earth]]. They served as a mainstay warship in the Covenant fleet for centuries as the empire's primary "missionary and compliance" [[warship]], though the class was eventually supplanted by the more refined {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}}. Many cruisers of the ''Maugen''-pattern were broken down into feedstock for [[High Charity]]'s [[Assembly Forges]], being reformed and remade into new ships, vehicles, and armor to equip the [[Covenant military]]. The remaining vessels of this class were left as reserve vessels in the [[fleet]]s of important Covenant colonies or transferred to distant reserve fleets to take on various utilitarian roles.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | ''Maugen''-pattern cruisers were introduced into Covenant service in the [[Ages of Reclamation|Fifth Age of Reclamation]];{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} around the time that [[human]]ity was only just beginning to make its own early long-distance ocean voyages on [[Earth]].
