If the galaxy has a diameter of 100,000 light years, then a lot of Halos would be required, way more than 13.
area of a cricle(galaxy is roughly circular): Pi x Radius x Radius (Pi x R^2)
Radius of galaxy: approx 50,000 light years
Approximate area of galaxy: 7,853,980,000 light years.
Halo blast radius: approx. 25,000 light years
Halo blast diameter(with Halo at center): approx. 50,000 light years
7,853,980,000 / 50,000 = 157,079.6
Equally distributed, it would take approx 157,080 Halo installations to cover the entire area of the galaxy. The galaxy's average thickness (up and down) is around 2,000 light years, well within range of a Halo located anywhere vertically in the galaxy.
Well, I believe this is sort of correct, calculations might be a little off but otherwise perfect. To be precise it would be 157,000 Halo installations.
