Yes I'm fairly young. No, that doesn't mean I'm automatically dumber than you or have less life experience, thats just generally the case. I am not your general case.

Frigate: UNSC Iwo Jima
Destroyer: UNSC Punisher
Cruiser (Halcyon class): UNSC Summer breeze
Cruiser (Marathon class): UNSC Durandal
Carrier: UNSC Everest
I name my frigates after battles in human history (Example: Normandy, Ain Jalut, Stalingrad) destroyers after things that destroy (duh; example: Butcher)or supernatural beings (wraith, phantom, spirit), Halcyon class cruisers after seasons, weather cycles and natural events on Earth (Example: thunder, lightening), Marathon class after legends from human folklore (Example: Curtana, Durandel, Odysseus, Achilles) and carriers after famous places on earth (Stalingrad, New York, Everest, The alps).

Wouldn't that be a big surprise for the crew of the ship when they find out about the Forerunners!

-*Update*-
Priority Lvl: FLASH 1
TO: CODENAME: PUEBLO
FROM: ONI Long Range Xeno-Archaeologist Team Lambda-7, Senior Archaeologist CODENAME: BADLANDS
SUBJECT: Translation breakthrough.

PUEBLO,

Our team has made excellent progress in translating the iconographic symbols discovered here on [CLASSIFIED]. The addition of the 2nd AI, combined with new algorithms sent by Halsey, we think we've cracked some of the lower-level meanings. As we stated previously, the language appears to be multi-layered, with each layer growing progressively more florid and abstract. We continue to work at cracking these higher dimensions, but barring some unknown miracle, it will be quite sometime before we are able to do so.

What we've translated so far seems to be data from some sort of long range fleet monitoring station. It makes references to at least five ships of incredible power. See the attached file for what we've gotten so far.

Expect another progress report in approximately one week, hopefully this entry-level language will be the key to deciphering the higher strains

-BADLANDS

ATTACHMENT 1: Translated Names*

-Cleansed Through Flame, The Tragic Saviour Of The Ecumene
-Forged Through Necessity, The Mantle Weeps Regardless
-Through Fate's Hand Are Life And Death Entwined
-By Our Hand Is Wrought Both Sin And Salvation
-The Duty Done, The Burden Shouldered, Our Shame Lies Bare To All

*NOTE: These translations are at best a rough idea of the word's original meaning. There may very well be no way to verbally express the higher-level thoughts and ideas.

I started up the heated debate on whether the SPARTAN-II in the cryo tube near the end of Reach is really Linda.
I created the Moa XING avatar pic.
Also I earned the All Star nameplate with this submission to Week 14 All Stars http://www.bungie.net/images/News/Inline11/bwu_0415/art/likea boss.jpg

UNSC: The Absolution

Bonus points if you can guess where I got the names of those ships.

Don't give up easily. Make your enemy fight for every victory that they try to get. Be ready for a hard-fought victory.

This simply means that I'll go down swingin'.

PRIORITY LVL:FLASH 1
TO:CODENAME:TRAWLER
FROM: ONI Prowler Corps., Deputy Operations Director CODENAME:HUNTER
SUBJECT:[CLASSIFIED]X-RAY Directive

//start file:

TRAWLER,

Your guys, Section 3, are getting on my department's back for a big problem. One of our prowlers, the Marauder(See attatched [CLASSIFIED] file), was missing from a search of REACH. Alarm bells are going off and we're currently scrambling to get search teams on the case. You showed up on my list of dependable people.

No, the Covenant didn't find it when they razed REACH when we retreated. We got that confirmation from our prowler Dusk. I trust the Dusk's captain to keep his mouth shut about it. Only thing Section 3 is worried about is that the Innsurection got a hold of it.

Otherwise, no one else knows about this whole charade at REACH. No one else knows about it. Contact the Duetchland's captain descretly. He has an emotional connection to REACH site, and that's a liability I don't want.

Get his SPARTAN-IIs on the case. From what I've heard[CLASSIFIED] is used to this type of work. [CLASSIFIED] knows how to exercise restraint, unlike ODSTs. And,[CLASSIFIED] knows when to keep their traps shut.

As I said TRAWLER, nobody knows about this but us. We don't want another one off the chain, like the Deep Six. But that's a different story. So keep your mouth shut, too.

-HUNTER

I see what you did there. Clever...


Dream of Luck. Think of a Sabre with some extra armor plating and some more maneuvering thrusters.

Everything else except the shields apply as normal.
