I'm just making this thread in order to know which covenant ships are you planning to add? So far the UNSC ones are quite clear, being:

Though I remember you have both a stealth prowler and strident class frigate models. Not sure if those are going to be added though. Broadsword is the latest addition too.

As far as I'm concerned covenant will have:

Capitals:
DDS class http://www.moddb.com...rrier4#imagebox
Salvation Class http://vignette4.wik...=20131219175911
Adjudicator class (?) http://www.moddb.com...redux2#imagebox
ORS Class http://www.moddb.com...uiser1#imagebox

Support:
Missionary class (Remake?) http://vignette3.wik...=20140207054559
Mercy class (Uses same model as missionary?) http://vignette3.wik...=20140207054559
Pious class (Remake? Looks like a star wars ship) http://vignette3.wik...=20140207064047 (May i recommend this one without the antennaes: http://img2.wikia.no...inateSuccor.JPG )
Picket class http://vignette3.wik...=20140207071745
SDV Class (Remake?) http://vignette2.wik...=20140207085114 (I guess youre going to use reach's SDV at the end http://orig03.devian...e-d4w49zq.jpg )

Combat
CAR class http://media.moddb.c...17-56-47-16.jpg
CRS Class (So will it be the ingae one that looks like the CCS or this one:? http://media.moddb.c...3/majestic2.jpg )
CPV Class (Remake? Mostly textures.) http://i908.photobuc...troyerBelow.jpg
CCS Class http://vignette3.wik...=20140207135559

Titan
Prophet personal carrier http://www.moddb.com...titan1#imagebox
Covenant Battleship/Super-Destroyer (Not sure if it will be used at the end?)

Fighter/Bomber
Seraph
Space banshee

Orbital assault:
Spirit
Phantom


did I forget anything?

PD:
After mentioning the stealth prowler i have been asking to myself if stealth features would be posible? Imagine being able to send advanced scouts that will not be discovered easily, you would have greater chances on exploring and spying without losing your ship. I also found this stealth covenant design:

It does not sound bad to me

And i cannot find any information regarding these ships:

Could these be added somehow? The design looks cool, and those engines look fresh compared to the other ships, its quite appealing. Maybe you could make a ship with a very similar design and use it as some kind of support ship, such as the mako class corvette.

And this looks like the ship seen in halo5:

The Adjudicator-class is the Covenant Supercruiser fyi, funny enough there was a nice model made for it that never made it in.

The Strident is going to be used as the UNSCs heavy frigate, with Shields to help out last it in combat. The Prowler's role is under lock, key and auto-turrets, so only the devs know the details to that.

I've heard stealth features in this game are impossible; Goafan saying that the best he could do is turn the model invisible and make it invulnerable.

The DAV-class IS the Missionary class. The only difference is the ability to jam missiles, and if we add that you've got yourself almost the same thing as the ONI Sloop. Not fun for asymmetrical factions to use the same thing.

For the unit requests and remodels someone else can answer these since I don't know if there are any recent plans to remodel them.

Sev, y u do dis.

[Sev]

Trains, that's why

[SternuS]

You missed one in the Covenant, but I'm not sure I'm allowed to tell you what it is.

[MrChipps]

The ship design from the cover of Broken Circle are several millenia old. It would make zero sense to reactivate ancient ships. Maybe the UNSC could deploy a replica of the Tirpitz in space?

[SiRD31M0S]

The correct answer is obviously the Mako.

[Sev]

/\ This. I'm pretty sure Crisis (or at least a playtester) has already replied to you before, but can't find his reply

 

EDIT: Forget about this post.

[MrChipps]

The Mako aint several millenia old tho

[SiRD31M0S]

But neither is the Tirpitz.

[MrChipps]

But neither is the Tirpitz.

Dang, I guess the UNSC will have to deploy viking long boats to counter the new old Covenant ships

Ormen Lange confirmed next update.

Or better yet, instead of fighting ship-to-ship, it can replace the drop ships in the planetary siege particle effect!

If someone creates artwork of a Phoenix dispersing waves of Viking long boats to a planet's surface, I will love you forever.

SternuS,
You mean the ORS? I'm pretty sure the cats out of the bag with that one.

It's not missing in the list. What I'm referring to is absolutely public, but since I might be mistaken...sshhh...

[Lord Stark]

The RCS...now that I think about it I remember someone on the boards mentioning it.

[Daringpear]

What, RCS? I thought you guys weren't using it because it didn't do anything special and was too ordinary

[TheHippie]

What, RCS? I thought you guys weren't using it because it didn't do anything special and was too ordinary

It's also supposedly way out of date and considered obsolete by Covenant standards, iirc it has all that extra plating due to it predating Covenant usage of shield tech.

[Daringpear]

Wow, no wonder why the Infinity rekd Jul 'Mdamas fleet. All of his ships we see are either outdated RCS's, or puny CRS's.

[베이클라이트]

 Tirpitz in space?

Spaceship Yamato anyone?

[Crisiss]

You missed one in the Covenant, but I'm not sure I'm allowed to tell you what it is.

Since its public I would say yes. Otherwise, no. Don't say stuff like "oh but I can't tell you!!" when relating to private internal super secret stuff please.
