:I think we'd be happy to have you as a member of the site. That was well reasoned and methodical, and I can only agree with all of your points. The Infinity may have more heavy weapons, but the Assault Carrier's sheer firepower and ability to adjust aim independently of the hull orientation and guide plasma give it distinct advantages that the Infinity does not. Catalog makes it clear that Assault Carriers are powerful enough that tracking even one, the Shadow of Intent, is a priority, with three Prowlers attached to stalk it - and probably quietly blown out of space in retaliation. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 20:38, 7 July 2014 (EDT)

::If you're referring to ''Infinity'''s "lackluster to say the least" weapons against the ''Mantle's Approach'', here's a to-scale comparison. ''Mantle's Approach'' is the big thing on the right. The ''Infinity'' is one of the small black splotches to the left of the tiny Forerunner Dreadnought in the red box.

What would have made ''Infinity'''s weapons more impressive when a mosquito swats an aircraft carrier? I don't think we've really seen what ''Infinity'' can do against the Covenant, except maybe when it didn't so much as flinch when ramming and pulverizing the Covenant's most heavily armored cruisers. Just havin' some fun. No hard feelings :) I guess I feel the text in the visual guide still stands. -[[User:ScaleMaster117|ScaleMaster117]] ([[User talk:ScaleMaster117|talk]]) 22:30, 7 July 2014 (EDT)
