Talk:Halo: Fleet Battles

Fleet Battles stats
Perhaps it would be better to create a page (or pages) for the stats of ships from Fleet Battles, like a walkthrough page of sorts. We could probably organize it decently using tables or whatever, and then that way the stats alone don't take up about half the page on ship articles. Instead, we could put a section for Fleet Battles with a paragraph or two describing the ship's gameplay usage or whatever, with a link to the "master" stat article. I'm not entirely sure if this makes sense, as I don't own the game yet. - NightHammer (talk) 22:11, 24 July 2015 (EDT)
 * I was kind of doing it like how we did the Halo Wars upgrades. I was going to add some paragraphs for gameplay as well to the respective articles when I got around to reading the rule book. I'm up for someone making a template though. Sith Venator Mega Blastoise.gif ( Dank Memes ) 22:18, 24 July 2015 (EDT)
 * I agree that the stats shouldn't that that much space. Either a master start article or a sort of expandable paragraph thing could do probably. Erickyboo (talk) 23:00, 24 July 2015 (EDT)

How about collapsible text or wtf it is called Alertfiend (talk) 23:34, 24 July 2015 (EDT)

Fleet formations page
I been reading this. http://www.spartangames.co.uk/new-formations-for-halo-fleet-battles And well made me think. Shouldnt halopedia have a Covenant and UNSC Fleet formations page. Seeing as they actually have canonical reasons for existing. And arnt just random for Fleet Battles - CIA391 (talk) 19:25, 8 September 2015 (GMT)
 * Wow I have never seen that page before. Yeah we totally should do something with that. I might try to wipe something up for it in a bit. We might be able to add it to the space warfare article or make separate articles. -- NightHammer (talk)(contribs) 14:40, 8 September 2015 (EDT)
 * There's quite a lot of formations if you include the formations that are only named in the Info sheets and rulebook also. And I bet it will just continue to grow. Making the Space Warfare page too big. Making it page's(one for the covenant and one for the UNSC) that links off it seems better. So we dont overfill an article. But still have mention of it on that article. - CIA391 (talk) 20:08, 8 September 2015 (GMT)
 * I agree. I'm now wondering if we should have, like you said, two articles for Covenant and UNSC fleet formations, or a separate article for each individual one. -- NightHammer (talk)(contribs) 15:16, 8 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Well in The Reach start set there is 4 named formations. 2 Covenant, 2 UNSC. In the formation packs there is 6 named formations with descriptions(if you count the link I placed at the start). 3 Covie, 3 UNSC.
 * That Equals 5 UNSC and 5 Covie ones so far. And that isnt counting any (if there is any) in the Rulebook or any that might of not been mentioned yet. - CIA391 (talk) 20:32, 8 September 2015 (GMT)
 * I'll try to see if a page can be made for each one I guess, and if it doesn't work out/not enough content for each one, then we can always just make a page for each faction. -- NightHammer (talk)(contribs) 18:30, 8 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Okay, here is the result so far. -- NightHammer (talk)(contribs) 22:37, 8 September 2015 (EDT)

Fleet Battle formations
To add to the above convo so we can use it when the pages exist. Here are the formations that the Fleet Battles Reach Set Introduced us the others are just ships being supported I checked with what I could(delete this when not needed). - CIA391 (talk) 20:46, 8 September 2015 (GMT)

Battlegroups
Sorry for the lots of edits to this page. There is just a lot of info not on here(Halopedia) related to this I am finding on the go. And well getting it somewhere to be recorded properly is one reason for these pages. I only want info to be accurately recorded after all

There is 8 Battle groups types in the rules also. 4 for the UNSC and 4 for the Covenant. Though I am not sure how to add them in. But they do have small canon descriptions of what they are used for.

The UNSC ones are Gorgon Battle Group, Orthrus Battle Group, Harpy Battle Group, Cyclops Battle Group

The Covenant ones are The Solemn Vow Battle Group, The Oathsworn battle Group, The Sacred Plegde Battle Group, The Harbinger Battle Group.

These might make the cut for another page or something if you catch my drift. Linky here https://youtu.be/DDf2t1Gt9Oc?t=19m36s

Hope this helps, and sorry again - CIA391 (talk) 21:25, 8 September 2015 (GMT)
