==Disputed Content== | |||
What content is disputed? --[[User:Dragonclaws|Dragonclaws]] 01:55, 10 August 2006 (UTC) | |||
:Hello. Ok. Well, first - who knows the number of ships in a CCS battlegroup? Second,who knows what CCS stands for? <s> And third, the ''Ascendant Justice'' was not necessarily a CCS-class. </s> Nvm my third comment. Ok. THe weapons of a CCS-class are unknown, because the ''Ascendant Justice'' was not confirmed as a CCS-class. And more that I can't think of right now. Sorry if I'm annoying you peoples. =) | |||
:Cheers, | |||

:::We did not have much problem with disputed content before we transferred. -[[User:ED|ED]] | |||
::::True, but sometimes it takes a while to find junk info. I remember a few non-existant Prophet characters that lasted for over a year before I realized I had not heard of them, and looked for a source. Also, there was a bit of confusion with someone mistaking modded vehicles with fanfic descriptions for a legitimate part of the universe. I can see how citing sources could help improve the site. --[[User:Dragonclaws|Dragonclaws]] 08:52, 12 August 2006 (UTC) | |||
I think the CCS-class cruiser seen in the opening cutscene of Halo 2, during the flashback of the Covenant arriving at Halo is probably the ''Ascendant Justice''.--[[User:Spartan 118|Spartan 118]] 22:19, 16 August 2006 (UTC) | |||
:''Ascendant Justice'' was a flagship. It was much larger than the CCS class ships. This was made note of in the book, the Ascendant Justice was not a CCS class ship. Furthermore, since the dispute is over, I'm removing the template. -[[User:ED|ED]] 01:34, 8 September 2006 (UTC) | |||

CCS stands for Covenant Captal Ship--[[User:Darth nexes|Darth nexes]] 19:19, 27 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
Do you know that for sure? It carries troops like a carrier, you know it has so many? It's not an actual capital ship, Cap. Ships look different from CCS's.--[[User:Leckgolo434|prophit of war]] 22:30, 1 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
:The idea for the CCS meaning behind the letters is a smart one, but is still fiction. Sorry!

Also, in the US Navy, USS stands for United States Ship and in the Royal Navy, HMS stands for His/Her Majesty Ship so I'm guessing CCS stands for Covenant Cruiser Ship.

== Different ships? == | |||
The ''Halo Encyclopedia'' uses the cruiser type featured in ''Halo 3'' to represent a {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}}, and a ''Halo 2'' cruiser to represent the ''CCS-class battlecruiser''. Could this be a legitimate reason for the different colour scheme and design between the ''Halo 2'' and ''3'' cruisers? Or could this just be dismissed as a placeholder? Further - do the two cruisers that fly over you in ''Halo 3'' look a kilometer and a half long? -- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 11:22, 18 April 2011 (EDT) | |||
:According to [http://halo.bungie.org/misc/sloftus_scalecomparison/1280.html?display=capitalshipscale Loftus' scale comparison chart], the ''Halo 3''-style cruiser (labeled ''Triumphant Declaration'') is the exact same size as the ''Combat Evolved'' one. On another note, was there ever a 3D model of a cruiser in ''Halo 2''? All I can remember are some background sprites but no actual up-to-scale model. And I'd take everything from the Encyclopedia with a grain of salt, considering the overall amount of errors and mislabeled images. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue">'''Jugus'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 11:56, 18 April 2011 (EDT) | |||

==Halo 4 and the CCS-class Battlecruiser== | |||
Thought I should call a little attention to this, because we have a rather solid indicator that the ships we see throughout Halo 4 are ''not'' CCS-class Battlecruisers. This may be worth consideration for the sake of the article. | |||
The key evidence for this can be viewed here, a set of images I captured from the opening cinematic of Spartan-Ops: Episode 1 which very clearly shows two ships of the same shape, but of vastly different sizes. | |||
http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=1165079 | |||
As things currently stand, the ships that were thought to be CCS-Class Battlecruisers throughout Halo 4 are far more likely to be Covenant Light Cruisers. [[User:BrySkye|BrySkye]] ([[User talk:BrySkye|talk]]) 19:41, 31 December 2012 (EST) | |||
:That makes sense. If the ships' in-game size is of any indication, the [[Zanar-pattern light cruiser|CRS-class]] is the most likely candidate. They do look exactly like the CCS-class, but it's no different from the [[Sh'wada-pattern supercarrier|supercarrier]] being identical to the [[CAS-class assault carrier|assault carrier]]. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue">'''Jugus'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 00:30, 18 December 2012 (EST) | |||
::Actually on the supercarrier issue if you watch the scale of it next to the Corvette (when it is between the two hulls of the supercarrier) you can see the supercarrier is much smaller than the offical size. On this ship issue however, the ship seen in Spartan Ops is VERY similar to the CCS but not identical whereas all the other Covenant cruisers are identical to the CCS in all other games bar having green colour to it (which is seen with all Remnant/Sangheilii technology). Also on the issue of scale it clearly dwarfs the cruisers seen around it in a way that is similar in scale to how the Assault Carriers dwarfed the CCS (and this is proven as the smaller ships pass between the large ship and the camera). When the Infinity drops out of slipspace it can be seen directly next to this large ship before it smashes into it. Now remember the Infinity is a HUGE ship (largest the UNSC had built) yet when it is next to this ship it can be seen to be very similar in size meaning that this ship would be close in scale to the Assault Carrier meaning it is far to large to be the CCS. Now the CCS is known to be similar in size to the Hylcon class cruisers and in Halo 4:Forward Unto Dawn this cruisers are seen to be very small in comparison to the Infinity whereas this ship is not meaning that the ship seen in Spartan Ops is definately far to large to be a CCS. | |||
::Another reasoning that many believe that the Cruisers seen throughout Halo 4 aren't CCS is due to falling through the hull of one in the first mission it appears to be much smaller in scale to a CCS, however MC is supposed to be falling through it at great speed so that the scale isn't obvious. The reason the ship appears to small is because the CCS models used in Every Halo game are much smaller than the canonical scale of the vessel. In C.E. it is possible to shot at the Truth and Reconsiliation and see that it is actually very close to the ground and therefore only a fraction of the size it is made to look like. Also in Halo: Reach it is possible to fly around the CCS in Alexandria using the Pelican easteregg and by doing this you can see that they are not anywhere near the canonical size of the ship. In many instances in the campaign of Halo 4 the cruisers are made to look very large, and in the mission Infinity the cruisers in the final stage of the level look very large like the CCS in previous games. | |||
::On the issue of the ships being apparently weaker its more something done for story by 343, but in the first mission Cortana notes that the ship closest to them has its shields down suggesting that normally these ships would have shields up protecting them from missles and MACs. In this game 343 have tried to deliberately make the Covenant Remnant appear much weaker than the Main Covenant during the war. | |||
::Also even if you guys disagree with me on this as a whole, there is no evidence CONFIRMING that it is a CRS cruiser. Yes it is stated that the CRS looks like the CCS, but that is far from proving it and as such the page for the CRS should should mention that it might be these ships in H4 in the notes instead of outright stating that it is when never confirmed by 343 in any way (really its just speculation). [[User:VARGR|VARGR]] ([[User talk:VARGR|talk]]) 16:46, 9 January 2013 (EST) | |||
:::As I said under this discussion, there is no way that can be anything other than a CCS-class cruiser. You're misunderstanding scale properties. If you put the CAS-class in the same position, it would literally be the same size as the Infinity, so in retrospect the CCS is proportionate with the Infinity - the CCS is 1 mile+ long while the Infinity is 3.5 mile+ long. It just looks big because of the smaller cruisers buzzing by in the foreground and because the ship is facing perpendicular to the Infinity (the CCS's length is longer than the Infinity's width).--'''''[[User:Killamint|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamint</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamint|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamint|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 17:55, 9 January 2013 (EST) | |||
Has someone like Loftus done a size comparison yet between that rammed cruiser and the Infinity? I thought earlier we were speculating it was an ORS-class cruiser.
