A little off-topic, but what are the names of the other carriers and the battleships that were listed from the cut pages of the visual guide? [[User:Missing Mandible|Missing Mandible]] ([[User talk:Missing Mandible|talk]]) 15:50, 7 March 2016 (EST)

:Sorry for the lateness of reply, but I'm just seeing this now. I can't put info out that's not already revealed by 343i, but the carriers page had 3 entries for classes: ''Poseidon'', ''Orion'', and ''Epoch'', which we now know about. The ''Poseidon''-class was the only one pictured. The battleships page only listed two classes, one of which was Vindication. There's one other battleship mentioned on the page but which 343i has not done anything further with. The Vindication-class was the ship pictured on that page. Both pages had a paragraph of text, but all the callouts had been put out with ''lorem ipsum''-type nonsense text as this was the first pass in PDF format combining pics and text. -[[User:ScaleMaster117|ScaleMaster117]] ([[User talk:ScaleMaster117|talk]]) 17:04, 26 February 2018 (EST)

Can we assume the scale comparison between the Orion and RCS-class armored cruiser as canon? If so the Orion-class assault carrier would be 2,240 meters long and 660 meters wide (at widest point).

:These are not official numbers, but I measured my actual Orion resin Fleet Battles miniature and got these numbers:
:Model at 1/20,000 scale:
:Length = 11.1cm
:Width = 3.05cm
:Height = 3.3cm
:And full-size, calculated:
:Length = 2,220m (7,283.5ft)
:Width = 610m (2,001.3ft)
:Height = 660m (2,165.4ft)
:I'm not saying these values should be put on the Orion page unless it's with a caveat that it's based on measurements of a physical model. Hopefully 'official' numbers will be forthcoming someday.
