Forerunners are from 8-15/16feet.
Bornstellar was roughly eight and a half feet and we did some measurements that put the didact to about 15-16 feet. I think his mom was about 10 feet, i don't re-call.
I do remember the heights given in cryptum almost exactly, from what i remember there was a large disparity between born's father and his mother.
his father was around 13'2'' (a foot taller than a hunter, and he wasn't even a warrior), and his mother was stated at "only" a bit above 2 meters, given that a bit for them would be like 3-5 inches for us, born's mother was close to 7 ft. Born's sister though, was said to be taller than her mother, so she was over 7 ft.
Born was obviously taller than his sister, and after his mutation, where he got even bigger (taller and more muscular) i estimated his height to be somewhere around 8'6'' to 9'6'' feet in height. Not bad given that he was just a teenager. about what you said.
Now the warrior servants are a bit trickey, it would only make sense that they would be the largest forerunner, at least the height of born's father, but with more mass (13-14ft). And then there are prometheans, from what i read a completely different breed.
Born never commented on how massive or incredibly tall his father was, yet whenever he spoke of the didact, he drew comparisons, such as his legs being like tree trunks, TREE TRUNKS! And the fact that he could crush a human skull with a single hand, ( a human skull could fit into his hand). I put didact somewhere around 16 feet in height. Again just as you said. But what i found interesting was the ancient humans, their warrior servants would have to be near equivalents to the forerunner in terms of size. Before they were biologically reduced, their warriors must have been at least 13 ft tall as well in order to have killed a respectable amount of forerunner.
And then there is the great Forthencho, the human equivalent to the didact. . .
