Talk:Combat support vehicle

Citations

I need assistance with citations for this. The purpose came from Halo: Oblivion as follows: "Combat support vehicles were armored transports capable of carrying anything from personnel to ammunition and explosives to medical supplies—including the liquefied carrier gas used to recharge plasma weapons." <--Page 26

The description came from the book as follows: "Fifty combat support vehicles were pulling up on the far side of the road behind the Grunts, floating on air and resembling giant barrel-bodied beetles with bulbous heads." <---Page 31

The capacity space and operational history stuff is described as follows: "John counted twenty to a compartment, all armed with plasma rifles and not much else, and there were fifty support vehicles lined up behind the Wraiths. That was a thousand Drones." <--Page 32

Any help with this would be appreciated!--AdmiralPedro1stFleet (talk) 15:10, October 12, 2020 (EDT)

Hey! Citing sources is fairly easy, all you'd need to do is as follows; copy the following code - {{Ref/Novel|Id=HO4|Oblv|Chapter=4}}. In this case, the reference template is referencing Halo: Oblivion, as denoted by the Oblv parameter, and obviously you'd just need to change the chapter number to the relevant chapter your info comes from. We don't use page numbers now as reprints change the page numbers between editions.

The Id=HO4 is just a paramater you can set so you can reuse references instead of having to re-type all this out. In this case, you can type {{Ref/Reuse|HO4}} to call the reference again (and the HO4 identifier can be anything you want, just make it descriptive!). Check out the Super Spirit page to see examples in use.
