*A single round from the ''Spirit of Fire's'' [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] is unable to penetrate the [[Shield Generator (Covenant)|shields]] that often protect Covenant [[Citadel (Covenant)|Citadels]]. This might be because the ship possesses an earlier, weaker version of the MAC, because the ''Spirit of Fire's'' MAC is made for low-yield orbital bombardment, or because the shields are simply very powerful. It should be noted however that the ''Spirit of Fire's'' MAC is capable of firing multiple rounds-therefore it is likely that in order to do this each round would have a much reduced velocity so that the the charge could be kept for the following shots. According to the novel [[Halo: The Fall of Reach]] the [[Pillar of Autumn]] was out fitted with a [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] that was capable of firing three shots before needing to recharge and that this MAC used lighter projectiles. | *A single round from the ''Spirit of Fire's'' [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] is unable to penetrate the [[Shield Generator (Covenant)|shields]] that often protect Covenant [[Citadel (Covenant)|Citadels]].

*Before Halo Wars it was previously thought that no human had encountered the Flood until the incident on Installation 04, however since the ''Spirit of Fire's'' crew used their FTL drive as a bomb to destroy an unidentified Shield World they have been left stranded in space with no ability to contact anyone about their discoveries, meaning that the Spirit's crew was the first to meet them on hostile ground, not the ''[[Pillar of Autumn]]'s'' as was once believed. | *Before Halo Wars it was previously thought that no human had encountered the Flood until the incident on Installation 04, however since the ''Spirit of Fire's'' crew used their FTL drive as a bomb to destroy an unidentified Shield World they have been left stranded in space with no ability to contact anyone about their discoveries, meaning that the ''Spirit's'' crew was the first to meet them on hostile ground, not the ''[[Pillar of Autumn]]'s'' as was once believed. | ||
