|The Covenant vessels seen in this War Games map set are contemporary designs within a [[Battle of Installation 04|historical scenario]].

For clarity: All [[War Games|War Game scenarios]] are combat simulations that take place within the UNSC Infinity. Many such map sets are based on actual locales - either reconstructed from fragmentary records (as in the case of the specific layout of the [[Undiminished Entelechy]] and deployment/composition of Thel 'Vadamee's [[Fleet of Particular Justice]]) or built from remotely sensed and on-site survey data for mission preparation and familiarization. Specific implementation of artistic [touches] is at the discretion of the simulation designers and [narrative] builders.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/db05ce78845f4120b062c50816008e5d/topics/halo-5-truth/7c25c1e2-29a4-4ef9-bf84-f9912215a0a0/posts?page=1#post17|Site=Halo Waypoint Forums|Page=Halo 5 Truth|D=29|M=12|Y=2019|LocalArchive=Catalog/Archive/2015#Halo 5 Truth}}

===How much does a mjolnir system cost?===

|Fully answering this question would require too many resources at present.For partial clarification and edification: Human [Mjolnir] combat skin platforms require extensive design and simulation refinement before being placed in production, due to the difficulty and time required for the [texo] of their [exotic composite] [lorica] shell, construction and integration of the compact [sun-star] power plant, and [alternate foundation] computing architecture. True costs to the human military was less the [transactional system units] assigned for [checkbook accounting] and more the loss of scientific personnel utilization, [precious-limited] manufacturing time at intact [high tier] [fabricae], and [mass-volume] of exotic materials required for each [bespoke] combat skin.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/db05ce78845f4120b062c50816008e5d/topics/how-much-does-a-mjolnir-system-cost/ea30d868-dcd6-4a3b-b4b6-d8e6b2f2460f/posts?page=1#post18|Site=Halo Waypoint Forums|Page=How much does a mjolnir system cost?|D=29|M=12|Y=2019|LocalArchive=Catalog/Archive/2015#How much does a mjolnir system cost?}}
