Yo, just wanted to say that in the warthog variants section, I had corrected the fireball not having an embedded link that you reverted and had fixed the flame warthog embedded name which also reverted.

Regarding excessiveness. I like to argue that first off the Nandao and the Baselards show up in one or two cutscenes briefly and kinda need to be shown on the sheets since they make up a pretty crucial part of the ship's compliment, namely it's fighter screen. They're both also vehicles that rarely anyone knows even exists, again because they show up very briefly, ergo the need for a listing. The Cougar I thought would be interesting to include since it also just doesn't show up in the game (was cut last second) but shows up later in the spirits manual, making it's mention warranted imo since again barely anyone knows they exist and that the spirit had them onboard. The HAVOC variant V missles seemed interesting to know as well given they were a key armament of the actual ship too. The rest of the compliment I'll agree was excessive although I personally think at leats the UNSC press corp was an interesting addition.

:Thanks for pointing out the Warthog issues, I'll correct those shortly. As for many of the other things you added, they were plain wrong;
*Nandaos and Baselards have never been depicted in any visual medium, beyond the two illustrations featured in the 2022 Halo Encyclopedia. Interestingly, they ''were'' mentioned as active in the opening chapter of ''[[Halo: Divine Wind]]'' - but they have certainly never been depicted in a cutscene.
*The [[M35 Cougar]] does not appear in the [[Halo Wars manual]]; nor does its status as ''Halo Wars'' cut content mean that it is therefore canonically a part of the ship's complement.
*HAVOK nuclear weapons have never been stated in any canon source to be a part of the ship's weapons complement. Please provide a citation for this.
:Frankly, most of the additions you were adding seem like fan lore or flat-out made up, rather than based in any kind of canonical backing.[[User:BaconShelf|<span style="color:green;">BaconShelf</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:BaconShelf|talk]])</span> 06:08, February 23, 2024 (EST)
