History:
A UNSC Prowler sent scouting mission about an large UFO shape object driften 50 light years from Earth. Latter on in it’s mission it detects the object. They confirm it’s neither Human, or Covenant origin. They try to establish contact with it but no response. They send an 5 man team onto the ship. Later on they discover it’s intact. Along with it’s Space fighters, and Ground base weapons, and vehicles. But surprisingly no traces of the crew.

They take control of the ship, and take it to a highly classified research station. Where they begin to learn about they ship, and it’s technology. They find out a glitch in its hyper Drive system send it to some random coordinates. Sadly all information about where it came from, and who built it got lost in the glitch. The good news is that they glitch is easy to fix. After some time they turn it into one of their warships. But it’s mainly used as a form of a space station, and mobile command post.

Here’s mine :smiley:

Picture: Approximate Appearance
Name: UNSC Harsh Dimension
Type: Olympian-class Super Destroyer
Manufacturing Date: February, 2 2581
Length: 12.23km
Width: 2.45km
Height: 1.05km
Armament: Super M.A.C, 50 75mm Gauss turrets, 100 75mm Point defense, guns, 100 Archer missile pods, 100 Ares missile pods, 10 nuke shafts

Shields(Type): MK-II Phalanx Shield
A.I.: Pi
Captain: Carson Beck (Spartan)
Crew: 1000 Naval Personnel, 5000 Marines (2 ODST battalions), 500 Spartan V’s
History:

After the destruction of the UNSC Diameter, Major Carson Beck requisitioned a new ship with more fierceness and size than the last one. The UNSC Harsh Dimension, was designed to rival the size of a Covenant CSO-class supercarrier and pack more firepower. This Destroyer was equipped with a MAC gun, 100 75mm point defense guns, 100 Archer Missile pods, 100 Ares missile pods, 50 75mm Gauss turrets, and 10 Shiva nuke shafts (each with 5 nukes lined up). Harsh Dimension was also equipped with a MK-II Phalanx shield, which was a larger version of the MJOLNIR MK-VI shielding technology. In its largest bay was a UNSC Paris-class Frigate, the UNSC Guided Hope. The Frigate was a standard fitted ship that had an added MK-I Phalanx shield equipped to it.

Picture: None.
Name: Serenity of Phoenix
Type: Carrier
Length: 3.01km
Width: 1732m
Shields: Yes
A.I.: Vulcan
Captain: Nikolas Petrov
History:

Upon joining the fight late into the defense of Reach, the Serenity of Phoenix was ordered to fall back and featured a few other combat assignments. Following Cole Protocol before returning to Earth, Serenity of Phoenix received shield technology upgrades and was destroyed in the defense of Earth soon after. Stationed in a key defense point along side Station Cairo, the Serenity of Phoenix provided Troop support to all platforms with battle group ODSTS and Marines along with barrage after barrage of missiles into covenant battlecruisers. Eventually, the Serenity of Phoenix’s captain, Nikolas Petrov, had no alternative with his greatly damaged Carrier. He ordered the evacuation of all remaining military personnel to Earth as he plunged the Serenity of Phoenix into one of the many still standing covenant battlecruisers, destroying what was left of it. Barely 20% of the ships personnel made it off the carrier to fight another day.

> So far. I have the largest ship :3

soooo? :stuck_out_tongue:

Mine is pretty huge.

I realize its not exactly UNSC or Covenant, but its something I’ve been working on and wanted to show.

Picture: None
Name: Eclipse
Type: No specific class
Length: 58.25 Kilometers
Manufacturing Date: 12,687 years after the Halo Array was activated. Put in service 152 years after its completion.
Width: 45.245 Kilometers
Sheilds: Yes. Advanced double layer sheilding system, overall capable of withstanding multiple Super MAC blasts.
Armor: Thick Forerunner armor. Heavily resistant, extremely difficult to breach.
Weapons: No visible weapons. A layer of advanced particles that reside between the sheilds and the hull harden into different forms and launch at high speeds, can overwhelm sheilds with effective speed and can burn easily through armor. Due to the size of the ship, hundreds of blasts can be fired at once and can keep firing for a long time, but most opposition is decimated before the systems need to cool down and recharge.
A.I.: Several advanced A.I. systems, are rarely seen and not much is known about them.
Crew and Compliments: Hundreds of thousands of Sentinels, capable of being built on board. Thousands of advanced machines resembling Forerunners. Hundreds of dropships, fighters, bombers, tanks, and other vehicles.
Captain: 2350 Forgotten Essence, a rebellious Forerunner A.I. tasked with guarding a construct known as The Entity.
Comments: This gargantuan ship easily dwarfs all known vessels, being 2 times the size of a Covenant Supercarrier. This ship alone has more power than an entire fleet, and has destroyed many fleets single-handedly. It was named because of its size.
History:

When The Entity was attacked and nearly destroyed by an unknown enemy 12,000 years after the Halo Array was fired, its caretaker, Forgotten Essence, began to form a plan to create a massive naval force to protect Forerunner constructs and destroy any civilizations rising to a threat level. This is the time where it was believed Forgotten Essence began descending into rampancy. A part of this plan was a massive flagship, capable of destroying entire fleets by itself. Essence mined hundreds of star systems to aquire the materials and energy for the construction, and he was also busy redesigning the Forerunner technology he was given. When the ship was completed, it quickly carved fear into all other civilizations. For tens of thousands of years, Essence, the Eclipse, and his fleets policed the galaxy, even defending the human world Earth when a massive extra-galactic threat invaded the galaxy. After 42,356 years in service, the Eclipse and its fleets had chased the last remaining extra-galactic threat to an unknown star system. When a portal opened and thousands of enemy ships began assaulting the Eclipse, Forgotten Essence made the system’s star go into a premature supernova, wiping out every enemy force, destroying the portal, and ending the extra-galactic threat. Contact with Forgotten Essence, the Eclipse, and its fleets was lost, but it is presumed that the Eclipse is intact, drifting in an isolated corner of the galaxy.

Shields(Type): MK-I Phalanx shields
A.I.: N/A
Captain: Giovanni Rodriguez
Crew: 250 Naval Personnel, 1000 Marines (500 ODST’s , 500 Marines)
History:

The UNSC Guided Hope was one of the first 10 ships to receive the first line of Naval shielding. It served as the first UNSC Frigate to receive the Phalanx 1.2 update, which increased energy efficiency. In 2578, Guided Hope was part of the reinforcements sent to quell a rebellion lead by the insurrectionist faction, Reach’s Revenge. The rebellion flew 30 salvaged UNSC ships of which 5 were cruisers, while the rest were destroyers and frigates. Guided Hope took out one of the cruisers, three destroyers and two frigates. It’s Captain, Giovanni Rodriguez, was awarded for his efforts and bravery. A few years later when the UNSC Harsh Dimension was manufactured, Major Carson Beck requested that the Guided Hope be a part of it’s compliment to perform heavy recon missions. This partnership would lead to an almost unbeatable pair of UNSC ships. The Harsh Dimension and Guided hope became known for their effective and efficient tactics in the Brute attacks on Delhi and Taurus V. With just the two ships and fleet of 5 cruisers, they were able to take out 10 battle-cruiser and 3 carriers on Taurus V and its moon Delhi.

Manufacturing Date: 2555
Length: 1.5km
Width: .5km
Height: .65km

A.I.: Camulus
Captain: Michael “Zolo” Palazzolo
Crew: 350-450 Naval Personnel, 3000 Marines (1 ODST Battalion , 1-2 Marine Battalions, 0+ Specialists)
History:

The USNC SangriLa was the brainchild of Fleet Admiral Hood and several other prominent fleet officers in a bid to level the playing field against the Covenant’s capital ships. Originally slated for commission in 2553, the project was significantly setback with the destruction of Reach and the prototype in the spacedock overhead. Construction was moved to Orion Station in orbit around Chi Ceta. The ShangriLa was finally completed in 2555 and suffered a near catastrophe when the ShangriLa was ambushed on its shakedown cruise of the Chi Ceta system. Ensign Michael Palazzolo, just 2 years out of the academy, was the only surviving officer of the assault. He not only save the ShangriLa, but also inflicted near 100% casualties upon the enemy. Admiral Hood commissioned him to master of the ShangriLa and a promotion straight to Lieutenant Commander. Upon refit, with many of the changes requested by the LCDR, the ship was sent out on various missions to search for survivors, pirates, smugglers, and anyone else that had survived the Human-Covenant War, including the few remaining Spartan-II’s known as Gray Team. Along with her sister ship, the “Keyes”, the ships continue their mission.

While only two of these vessels were completed,they served as the basis for the UNSC Infinity and the future of the Human Fleet

Top Class, Top Grade Anti-Matter Armor, With Stand Forces so Strong he’d be outranking Master Chief, In my halo, they actually fight. lol. For the Fun of it. As he was the last remaining Lurendo Species and Master Chief was last remaining human, so it’d make sense.

History: Specially designed for lurendo species to transport all its cargo and all its men from lytharien Lunario to the first halo ring for the forerunners to build it. The lurendo were an era before them and especially help designed the fore-runners structure. This vessel was spotted at impact and explored, but found that it was hijacked by a blood thirsty soul worse then the flood itself, it duplicates itself after consuming its victims and lurendo dies off from it, hence why they aided the forerunners to build the rings, to kill of the flood and the Iyact.

Am I the only one who built his own ship? lol.

I broke the rules, I made a forerunner ship

Name: Lifeform Searcher
Type: Castle-class Warship
Manufacturing Date: 1500 years before the halo array’s activation
Length: 77.6km
Width: 12km
Height: 8km
Armament: Composer, thousands of turrets able to piece UNSC Infinity’s shields three times
Compliment: 20 1km long Battlecruisers
Shields: Able to take 90 glassings
AI: 16807 Innocent Fire
Captain: 16807 Innocent to Fire
Crew: Thousands of Sentinels
History:
1000 years before the halo array was activated, the one and only of its king, was designed by the Ur-Didact to create more Promethians, and the Librarian to study other planets of unknown life forms in the galaxy, so they too could be saved. The ships construction finished 1 year before the halo array was activated. It was constructed on the Ghib ship yard on the Lesser Ark. Once the halo rings were activated, 16807 Innocent Fire became the commander of the ship to seek lifeforms that could of survived the halo ring activation. Once it’s mission was complete, it began drifting in space with no ending. In 790BC, it began sending signals to planets previously inhabited by the Prehistoric Human civilisation, including Earth. What was called the WOW signal was really the Lifeform Searcher sending signals. In 2556, the signal began sending coordinates of its location. With this, the UNSC sent a Spartan IV Fireteam and a Frigate to the coordinates. Unfortunately for them, the Covenant Remnant also got the coordinates, as they inhabited one of the Prehistoric Human civilisation planets. Once the UNSC frigate arrived, a fleet of the Covenant Remnant swarmed the ship, and began boarding. The ship was deactivated, after thousands of years of service, however, life support and major things, besides the engines, were still working. The UNSC attacked all the Covenant boarding, and found 16807 Innocent Fire. The sentinels attacked the Covenant, but let the Spartans pass freely to see Innocent Fire. Innocent Fire revealed he needed to destroy the ship, but a Reclaimer (Post ring activation human) had to destroy it with his palm, fearing that the Covenant would take the ship for themselves. The ship was ultimately destroyed, and Innocent Fire was kidnapped by the Covenant Remnant as they were leaving the ship being destroyed. The destruction caused a explosion the size of 20 NOVA Nuclear bombs.
