*'''Strong Keep''' - the information on this ship is real, it is simply the name that is under dispute. It was a major plot device in the [[Battle of Reach]], and was a large reason for the Covenant's sack of the UNSC. Like Wookieepedia does, I recommend to keep it the way it is: with the hypothesized name, but a tag listing its ambiguity, unless you have something better?

*'''Keep''' - Unless you can prove the ship found in [[Halo: The Fall of Reach]] on page 297 during the [[Battle of Reach]] is without a doubt an [[Assault Carrier]], then it would be "rampant speculation" to say this is an Assault Carrier, would it not?--[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rot]] 2334 6.12.06

::An update on that, this ~~quoute~~ is describing the Covenant ship in question on page 323 in [[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]. "The covenant ship centered on the main view screen. This close Captain Keyes saw how huge the ship was- three times the mass of a normal cruiser." The quote doesn't prove without a doubt the ship is called a supercruiser, which I am not trying to prove, but it does give very good reason to believe the ship is a cruiser, which an [[Assault Carrier]] is not (the whole carrier thing kind of disqualifies it from being a cruiser). Earlier, on page 297 "One Covenant ship sat in the center of the pack, a gigantic vessel, larger the 3 UNSC cruisers." The common comparison to a cruiser rather than any other ship, and the use of the word normal in the 323 quote imply that it is a cruiser. Thus, I think it is safe to say this is not an [[Assault Carrier]]. And thus, I think it is safe to leave this ship up until we have an official name for it.--'''[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rot]]''' 1539 7.12.06
