Description
An updated look at the re-invention of the UNSC.
Also, the Athens carrier is about as badass as it looks.
Olalà ... I like.
Oh hello
Still waiting for the Phoenix-class...
Good thing come to those who wait ;P
Adore the textures! Is there going to be Marathon class cruisers in this mod?
She is in dev right now. :)
Very nice to hear.
i wasnt prepared for the epicness, so i had to do a double take on the picture
everyday i refresh my page in the hope that a playable beta has been released, but seeing this awesomeness will probably make me refresh even more >.<
Allow me to question.
Do you plan to add the UNSC Infiniti?
Thank you in advance.
If it is, expect it when the mod's released for Rebellion. Long ways away.
On the forums from CanadaMan: "It's important that for the most part, this mod has an "official year", 2543. Any attempt to go into Halo 4 will likely have to wait until Rebellion (which seems reasonable anyways)"
This is why Ember is part of the SotP internet wolf-pack now.
He actually pays attention.
Indeed. A true bro.
more like, a true hero.
marathon will be in the line up as well right?
and nice work guys, those all look awesome!
Yes.
how long did that take to render?
shiny :D
Your scale on all the ships for stuff like escape pods and archers are still off, but the ships still look nice.
Shouldn't the missile bays/escape pods on the Athens carrier be much smaller if they're supposed to be the same type that's on the frigate?
er...uh...****...um...the missiles are really big?
Annihilator!!!!
As long as i get to ruff up some covie chumps the archer pods can shoot car sized hot dogs for all i care :D
Human Dominance...
Wrong series but i don't care!
Which series?
Mass Effect....
I think that leaves 7 more to go.
*Starts drooling incomprehensibly*
What's left now, just the Marathon?
Also Annihilater102 is working on the Valiant-class super-heavy cruiser (based on the UNSC Everest, the ship Admiral Cole commanded), concurrently with the Marathon-class refit cruiser.
As Unikraken has said in the main comments, the Valiant-class super-heavy cruiser will be based upon the Marathon-class refit cruiser, as no canon material has ever clearly illustrated it to our knowledge.
As for the Thermopylae-class supercarrier, quoting from the same post I quoted earlier, Canada has said on the forums: "And yeah, current thermop model is getting the boot."
a_lleras is modeling a fitting Supercarrier replacement mesh as we speak.
He's very excited about it, as are all of we. :D
I encourage everyone to join us on the forums where much information about the mod is available, and your input is acceptable.
Sorry, disregard all instances of the word 'refit' and this is accurate.
I would be interested to see what the Valiant will look like. This may have possibly been the Everest, as seen in the Genesis comic.

I actually brought this up on the forums just two days ago, and referenced that image.
Unikraken said this to me:
"The image above is heavily disputed. I've seen people argue before than the ship shown is actually just a Marathon in front of other ships. For instance, the front could be that way because of a frigate in the background.
Anywho, because there isn't a definitive image of the ship, we are making our own version in-house. It will be called the Valiant-class in the game, and our use of "Everest" or "Marathon Refit" has just been colloquial lingo.
The model will be a heavy modification of the Marathon model currently in production and will replace the current Marathon capital ship. Even if your image is accurate, the ship is clearly a modified Marathon, so either way this is the best course of action."
Your input is certainly appreciated though.
It should be interesting to see Annihilater's take.
Also I should say, this is one more good reason to go sign up at the forums, so you can follow all of these little details, and participate further.

What is the native language of the UK? I've apparently been misinformed.
ship moudles?
Dafuq?
You know looking at the old Halcyon and the New Halcyon side by side. It almost looks as if the new Halcyon is the same as the old. Just with a bunch more armor slapped on over top of the original.
You mean...it looks...refit?

Because...thats what it is?
Give.
Wow.

What is that monster to the far left?
Athens-class Carrier, my good sir.
Phoenix class is supposed to be 2.5 km long as it turns out

Graeme Devine from Ensemble Studios.
2:23 P.M.: Graeme begins, "How do you expand upon the Halo universe? Halo Wars takes place at the beginning of the conflict, and is the story of the two-and-a-half kilometer ship "Spirit of Fire."
Very nice work.

Which is more accurate?
Also, some labels for the laymen would be pretty great.
AND is there a more updated version of this chart with what you guys have right now?
Now it would be great if you guys and homefront collaborated. I would love to see the Orthrus destroyer in SotP and the Athens in homefront. Doubtful, but one can dream.
