– The Epoch-class heavy carrier is the heaviest variety of carrier in service behind only the immense supercarriers, the Epoch class’ tonnage exceeds that of both the Poseidon and the Orion classes. Often forming the core of most UNSC Battlegroups during the Insurrection and early parts of the Human-Covenant war, the heavy carrier can pack a punch against Innie ships and even smaller Covenant vessels, but was not intended to deal much damage on its own in ship-to-ship combat with larger enemy capital ships. Instead, its sizable fighter capacity and thick armour were intended to allow it to function as a battlegroup leader, soaking up extreme amounts of damage in combat while it replenished the battlegroup’s fighter swarms. As the Human-Covenant War dragged on, it became clear that previous vessels were under-gunned when compared to the fierce ships fielded by the Covenant Empire. As many of the UNSC’s carriers were destroyed in combat, or being retired from service do to obsolescence, it left a large hole in the UNSC’s carrier arsenal, and it was filled with the Epoch-class Heavy Carrier. Widely distinguished as a rugged & versatile beast of a flagship for any battlegroup, the class would be one of few ships to have been in service since before the war, endure through, and continue to serve after. Its versatile & wide spread usage over such a long span of time has led the class to have multiple configurations, changes such as redesigned engine layouts, additional long range sensor, or extra armour platting and weapons could drastically change it’s appearance. ( Note: one such heavy configured, the UNSC Atlas, is what the Athens design is based from, hence the similarities)
