Pillar of AutumnCrew: 1 pilot + 1 copilot + 10 command crew
The UNSC Cruiser Pillar of Autumn is a Halcyon-class cruiser, pulled from long-term storage in 2550 to server as an emergency ship in the Zeta Doradus Theater of Operations.
The only noteworthy design feature of the Pillar of Autumn is her internal superstructure. The structural system was designed by Doctor Robert McLees (co-founder of the Reyes-McLees Martian Orbital Shipyards). It was, at that time, deemed unnecessarily over-massed and costly due to a series of cross-bracings and interstitial honeycombs. The design was subsequently dropped from all further production models. The Pillar of Autumn and 10 other vessels were the only ships-out of 50-to be built with this type of superstructure.
The Pillar of Autumn is armed with Shiva nuclear-tipped missles, Archer Missle pods, a prototype MAC gun, and a full complement of fighter craft, and Marines.
