Yet, unfortunately, Mantle's Approach was created/revealed and destroyed in a single game, which, somehow, doomed its appearence in SotP. Because it is set after the events of Halo 4, and this ship was destroyed during the events of Halo 4.

Well, in the Rebellion version, our mod takes place loosely around the events of Halo 4 without any events of Halo 4 being directly tied to the mod. Also, I wouldn't assume that there is only one ship like Mantle's Approach.

Plus if the forerunners made something that big, I highly doubt they would just stop at one.

I don't think you would decide to implement them or not before knowing if it is possible or not; if it is possible to implement it

It is possible, I've done it. It's a pain though, as I mentioned.

I always thought that Mantle's Approach was a unique ship, even in the books the Librarian mentions it as "Didact's ship", maybe the Didact designed it personally. But it is possible that there are more of them.

Good then, if someone's willing to do this.

1: 343i creates one in the series, and it plays a major role

Heaven forbid we make a non-cannon ship (coughBerlinandOrioncough)

Mantle's Approach was the name of the Didact's ship, not the class or anything. Of course it's his personal ship, but that doesn't mean it's the only one.

Yes, that's exactly what I tried to say.

Yes, but we needed those to fill a role... We don't need more Titans since we already have one for each faction

So then why do we need multiples, then?

We don't lol... That was the point of my post. To clarify, we won't add them unless there is a compelling need to do so

We are playing it by ear. WED LIKE TO, before i go on see what i did there? "Wed like to" meaning assuming we as a mod would like to do this given the time and current situation work out, would like to make a support or offensive titan to fill needs to certain faction choices you make like ONI vs Military. Now that Wed like to statement also means that ID LIKE TO WIN THE LOTTERY TOO and that probably wont happen, SOOOOoooo take it with a grain of salt as we will play it by ear to see what we need vs what we want to do. As far as im concerned, the ONLY TITAN FOR SURE 100% coming is the Infinity.
