-The '''UNSC ''Herodotus''''' was a [[UNSC Destroyer]] that saw action at the [[Battle of Reach]]. During the battle it was destroyed by a [[Covenant]] [[Supercruiser]] using a previously unknown weapon. This weapon projected a needle-thin beam of charged energy particles from a distance of one hundred thousand kilometers that bisected the ship from bow to stern and would later become known as an [[Energy Projector]]. It is unknown whether or not there were any survivors. <ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 298 and 320''</ref>
+'''UNSC ''Herodotus''''' was a {{Class|Halberd|light destroyer}} in service with the [[UNSC Navy]],{{Ref/Reuse|invasion}} serving as a part of the [[Epsilon Eridani Fleet]]. The destroyer participated in the [[Fall of Reach]] in the [[2552|summer of 2552]]. On [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]], she was bisected from bow to stern by a [[Kewu-pattern battleship|Covenant warship]]'s [[energy projector]] at a distance of 100,000 kilometers.{{Ref/Reuse|for298}}
-==Trivia==
+==Production notes==
-*The name Herodotus came from the real-life person [[wikipedia:Herodotus|Herodotus]] who was an ancient Greek historian.
+[[wikipedia:Herodotus|Herodotus]] was an ancient Greek historian. The ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]'' mistakenly places the destruction of ''Herodotus'' during the [[Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]], rather than the [[Fall of Reach]]. The ''Encyclopedia'' also erroneously claims that ''Herodotus'' was the first [[human]] vessel to be destroyed by a [[Covenant]] [[energy projector]].<ref>'''Halo Encyclopedia: The Definitive Guide to the Halo Universe''', ''page 270'' (2011)</ref>
