Epoch-class heavy carrier: Difference between revisions

*The ''Epoch''-class heavy carrier was created for a yet-unnamed tabletop wargame to be released in [[2015]]. Its design is based on concept art for ''[[Halo 2]]'', ''[[Halo Wars]]'', and ''[[Halo 4]]'', as well as concepts from [[Blur Studio]]. The carrier went through more revisions than any other ship designed for the game. The ''Epoch'' deliberately combines features from various UNSC ships to document a transition between wartime and post-war UNSC vessels. The general structure of the hull is clearly influenced by the {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}}, albeit with a more martial aesthetic. Its telescoping prow and overlapping armor panels are meant to evoke the contemporary ''[[Halcyon-class light cruiser|Halcyon]]'' and ''[[Marathon-class heavy cruiser|Marathon]]''-class cruisers, while its paneling and overall length foreshadow the {{UNSCship|Infinity}}.<ref name="canon fodder"/>
