Shadow of Intent

Shadow of Intent The Shadow of Intent is an Assault Carrier used by the Covenant Separatists. It was commanded by Shipmaster Rtas 'Vadum.

History
It took part in the Second Battle of Earth, where it supported local United Nations Space Command units by landing troops and vehicles into the area. Later during the battle, they glassed almost half of the continent of Africa, to prevent the Flood from spreading.

The ship later led a joint Elite/UNSC strike force through the slipspace portal to the Ark, where it engaged and defeated the Prophet of Truth's fleet. However, shortly after entering the installation's atmosphere, the ship was hit by a large piece of debris from the Flood-infested High Charity, which had just arrived. The ship was knocked out of commission, and crashed into the Ark.
