Talk:UNSC Commonwealth: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 02:10, February 4, 2012

I think it should be noted that the frigates around that time are almost certainly not the same as the frigates from the time of the games. The frigates (and other UNSC ships) during the games have grav plating... the frigates from the time of FoR do not, their gravity is simulated through rotating hull sections. 68.199.6.138 05:00, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

That may have been retconned by now, the subject is a little hazy. UNSC ships in contact harvest seemed to have some non-rotational gravity, and the Commonwealth as shown here doesn't look like it has any rotating sections.--205.122.22.23 17:16, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

It may not be a retcon. Contact Harvest states that artificial gravity was being used in space stations. Based on that, it can be presumed that was being developed for ships as well. Furthermore, the lack of rotating sections when viewed externally doesn't mean that there are none at all. In fact, corridors would no doubt rotate independent of sections on other floors, as it would make having more than two levels useless (you'd be unable to reach the middle deck). Besides, we don't even know how long it remained in service before being decommissioned - 27 years is a long time for taking ships apart. Heck, it looks recent given that it wasn't even half-way scrapped.-- Forerunner 17:23, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Anyone else think that it looks like a Stalwart-class in the comic? -Karl-591 12:25, 9 January 2012 (EST)

I do, as does my brother. It is, quite evidently, not a Paris-class frigate. I compared it to a side view of the Aegis Fate and the silhouetted data file of the Amber. Comparing the side view of the Commonwealth from Fall of Reach given in the article to the two other images showed that it is almost undoubtedly a Stalwart-class frigate.-WTRiker 02:10, 4 February 2012 (EST)
