picture shouldn't go to waste

Its an Assault Carrier but FlagShip?

We've established that is an Assault Carrier, click here for the full discussion, but below are the highlights:

1. In this Image HBO does calls it an Assault Carrier -- Esemono

"Registering all hostile vessels inside the kill zone. Thirteen cruisers, two assault carriers. I'm going loud!"

— Cortana in the First Battle of Earth

the above quote was provided by RelentlessRecusant

Now is it a flagship?

1. The flagship is two kilometers long and from Stephen Loftus's work on HBO, the assault carrier is something like five kilometers long. Cheers, RelentlessRecusantFile:Jedi Order.jpg

Ship Length

Hey everyone I just singed up on wikipedia and I'm the one who created the article "assualt carriers/flagships". I'm also an extreme fan for halo the game and the upcoming movie. I just wanted to let everyone know that no where at of all the halo informative sites, with the exception of HBO, does it say the assualt carrier is is 5346 meters in length. Also, to the people who say the flagship is 2 kilometers in length, it is actually 3 kilometers as exactly as the book says. —This unsigned comment was made by Halo3 (talk • contribs).

At 16:24, 20 November 2006 RelentlessRecusant added the length of the ship giving a figure of 5346 meters (5.346 Kilometers) as the ships length. It is unknown where he got this information. -- Esemono 01:16, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

First, —This unsigned comment was made by Halo3 (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~, you ought have not made the Assult carrier/flagship article, as there is already an Assault Carrier article. I think the Assault Carrier's general length is determined by taking the picture of it next to the In Amber Clad, and then using proportions. The In Amber Clad is estimated at 460m, so perhaps the math adds up. I have no idea, however, so I'll just ask RelentlessRecusant or something.--Rot 1905 7.12.06

Ah, here we are. http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/sloftus_scalecomparison/?display=CapitalShips . Quite an interesting article, the base starts here: http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/sloftus_scalecomparison/ . Just follow the red boxes to your heart's content. I'm thinking he is damned accurate too. Just read the article.--Rot 1914 7.12.06

• Ugg I uploaded that picture too, should have seen that. adding reference. -- Esemono 02:37, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Ascendant Justice should be removed from this page!

• Well, I don't think the Ascendant Justice is an Assault Carrier for that matter anyway. The Ascendant Justice is 3000m long and is bulbous like a covenant destroyer, whereas the Assault Carrier we see in Halo 2 is supposed to be somewhere around 5000m long and isn't bulbous, more round and flat.--Rot 1853 7.12.06

• I believe it was mentioned as such in the FS but I don't have the book with me. The Ascendant Justice was listed in this article when it was migrated and as such I am unable to tell who first stated that the Ascendant Justice was a Covenant Assault Carrier. Although Admin Dragonclaws seems to have written it. -- Esemono 03:09, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
