Talk:UNSC Gorgon

Jumping the Gun?
Unless there's a second reference I missed, I don't think there is evidence enough to justify calling this ship a Gorgon-class heavy destroyer. The text as I read it on Evolutions, page 447 indicates Cole was the first to command a heavy-destroyer-class vessel armed with a MAC. All we can canonically take from this is it's a heavy destroyer and that the first of the heavy destroyers to be equipped with a MAC was the UNSC Gorgon. I see nothing implying the Gorgon was the first heavy destroyer nor the first of its class. It could be that there were many heavy destroyers and that the Gorgon was the first to be brought into drydock and overhauled with a MAC and that vessel was assigned to Cole. I'm not saying the UNSC Gorgon cannot be a Gorgon-class destroyer, only that the text of the novel is ambiguous and that perhaps it shouldn't be stated so definitively in this article. - ScaleMaster117 (talk) 22:50, 30 June 2013 (EDT)
