The heaviest variety of carrier in service, the Epoch class' tonnage exceeds that of both the Poseidon and the Orion classes. Often playing a vital role in UNSC fleets, the heavy carrier is capable of taking extreme damage in combat.[2]

  • The Epoch-class heavy carrier was created for Halo: Fleet Battles. Its design is based on concept art for Halo 2, Halo Wars, and Halo 4, as well as concepts from Blur Studio. The carrier went through more revisions than any other ship designed for the game. The Epoch deliberately combines features from various UNSC ships to document a transition between wartime and post-war UNSC vessels. The general structure of the hull is clearly influenced by the Phoenix-class colony ship, albeit with a more martial aesthetic. Its telescoping prow and overlapping armor panels are meant to evoke the contemporary Halcyon and Marathon-class cruisers, while its paneling and overall length foreshadow the Template:UNSCship.[2]
