I did some rewriting and expansion, though not nearly enough for my liking. I was away today, and I'll be away tomorrow, but I'll try to get back to this with more references, particularly Fall of Reach, First Strike, Ghosts of Onyx and Halo: Reach, which comprise the meat-and-potatoes of Halo space combat. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 04:54, 23 February 2015 (EST) | I did some rewriting and expansion, though not nearly enough for my liking.

:I've taken some crude notes from TFoR, FS and GoO but I never have enough time to format the info into a presentable form. Nonetheless, it's good to see this getting expanded. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 10:39, 23 February 2015 (EST) | :I've taken some crude notes from TFoR, FS and GoO but I never have enough time to format the info into a presentable form.

::I've been adding references as best I can, using a combination of my own novels and references on other articles for what I don't have. Still not close to done, and I imagine we'll need to format the citations. Point of clarity - Help: References doesn't say (unless I missed it) but is it acceptable to put footnotes in the middle of a sentence, or at the end of it as in the MHRA system I've been using for university referencing? -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 09:07, 25 February 2015 (EST) | ::I've been adding references as best I can, using a combination of my own novels and references on other articles for what I don't have.

:::Generally I like to reserve mid-sentence citations for those cases where it's necessary to be ''very'' specific, but most of the time I prefer putting them at the end as this looks much tidier. But I don't think we have an official policy either way. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 11:34, 25 February 2015 (EST) | :::Generally I like to reserve mid-sentence citations for those cases where it's necessary to be ''very'' specific, but most of the time I prefer putting them at the end as this looks much tidier.

Given the upcoming ''Halo: Ground Command'', should we create a "Ground warfare" article too? It could detail ground strategies, as well as vehicles and the organization of troops. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 13:10, 4 April 2016 (EDT) | Given the upcoming ''Halo: Ground Command'', should we create a "Ground warfare" article too?

:I'm sure we have enough material already for a considerable Ground Warfare article. it would also clarify how things stand outside of the Covenant's naval supremacy - I've seen a lot of people who assumed the Covenant also outmatched humanity on the ground, which is not the case unless supported by orbital support or overwhelming numbers. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 23:10, 4 | :I'm sure we have enough material already for a considerable Ground Warfare article. it would also clarify how things stand outside of the Covenant's naval supremacy - I've seen a lot of people who assumed the Covenant also outmatched humanity on the ground, which is not the case unless supported by orbital support or overwhelming numbers. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 23:10, 4 April 2016 (EDT) | ||
