Talk:Super Sentinel

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Is "Super Sentinel" an official name for the large Foreruner Construct we see in Halo Wars or is it fan-based? If we look at the Concept Art, Ensemble refers it as Forerunner Sentinel Boss... (Note that some of the concept artist misspelled Sentinel... I find it humourous)...-5ub7ank(7alk) 18:31, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

In game its called a Super Sentinel. So I guess we go with that. D1134 18:32, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Im not too sure...[edit]

...but I think I remember that in the game that was the name that came up when you clicked on the actual unit. Hatchling001 20:25, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Watcher?[edit]

Page 167 of the Visual Guide does not provide any description of the Watcher... care to shed some light from where it is stated that the Super Sentinel is the Sentinel Watcher? — subtank 19:14, 9 October 2011 (EDT)

Most of the known Sentinel types, (Aggressor, Constructor, Enforcer, Retriever, Protector), are listed on page 167, with the exceptions of the Onyx Sentinel, the Gatherer, and the Guardian. To me, Occam's Razor suggests that the Watcher is the proper name of the Super Sentinel, and that the "Super Sentinel" moniker is just a gameplay convention. --Courage never dies. 20:45, 9 October 2011 (EDT)
Still puzzled on how you reached that conclusion. We don't have much information about the Super Sentinel's capabilities other than it itself is a large ground unit in Halo Wars (which is largely gameplay). What actually makes the Super Sentinel a Watcher, a title of which we do not have any information? Also, "Super Sentinel" is a fanon title according to history logs. The official title, according to this concept art, is Forerunner Sentinal Boss. So, we have yet another Sentinel article unsourced since creation.— subtank 15:05, 10 October 2011 (EDT)

In that case should we rename the Super Sentinel page to Sentinel Leader? As that's more appropriate. Vegerot goes RAWR! Vegerot (talk) 17:37, 10 October 2011 (EDT)!!!!!!!

You are right, Subtank. There is no proof that the "Super Sentinel" and the Watcher are the same. The Watcher should receive its own article, while this one should be referred to by its in-game name. --Courage never dies. 18:36, 10 October 2011 (EDT)

Better Picture, More Screenshot(s)[edit]

Could we get a more detailed screenshot or more of the Super Sentinel, and maybe a transparent cutout render for the introductory image of the article? There's not many out there on the Internet, so if someone could help out here with this would be great, if at all possible. Xamikaze330 12:50, 10 October 2011 (EDT)Xamikaze330
