The term "light cruiser" is a shortening of "light armoured cruiser" - the "light" doesn't refer to actual size at all, but rather signifies that the ship simply has less armour and smaller calibre cannons, and in exchange benefits from superior speed and manoeuvrability. Its entirely possible, therefore, for a cruiser, battlecruiser and heavy cruiser to all share the same basic external hull, but still retain dramatically different combat roles. -- '''[[Halopedia:Administrators|<font color=indigo>Administrator</font>]] [[User:Specops306|<font color=indigo>Specops306</font>]]''' - '''''<u>[[User Talk:Specops306|<font color=blue>Qur'a 'Morhek</font>]]</u>''''' 08:51, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

==Battle of Chi Ceti==

This battle, as depicted in TFoR, indicates the ship that attacked the UNSC Frigate ''Commonwealth'' was but a third its size. We know the light cruiser to be 300 meters, and as far as we know, the frigate is 478 meters (last I read). This puts the ''Unrelenting'' at approximately two thirds the size of the ''Commonwealth''. Is this just a mishap in the novel perhaps? This information seemingly comes from the Halo Encyclopeda, so I trust it to be right. [[User talk:Quakeomaniac|Quakeomaniac]] 04:41, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
