== Description ==
Brought into service near the end of the war, the “Judgement” is one of the newer Marathon Class heavy cruisers in the UNSC Navy. Fitted with twin MACs, this ship can easily take on a ship-to-ship role in space while also being able to support ground forces with its large armament of missiles and point guns. She was used throughout the end of the war sparingly by her fresh captain of 29, Linara Bristov. Her experience in Frigate’s and the Halberd class landed her in this ship as it was built in the yards and after, was pushed into the service at Meridian. The nickname, ‘Judgement,’ has stuck to her. The story behind it? Her captain and AI, Visio, regularly putting down broken or disabled Covenant vessels with extreme prejudice during its engagements.
Her complement of twenty five fighters and interceptors make her an even deadlier force to reckon with for enemy forces. She can also perform ground combat operations without the aid of any others; her complement of ODST and Marine forces a decent strength to take on such operations. In her vehicle bays are also a number of armored M808 Scorpion tanks and LRVs along with LRVs and Mastodon APCs for planetside combat if they were ever needed. In times of need, Judgment can also be used as a command ship, directing forces of the lesser vessels in her fleet along with the AI logistical support that a fleet must have for making decisive moves both in combat and not.
