In terms of combat effectiveness (commanders and AI assides) what ship would most likly be better suted for navel engagements.
I belive that the Marathon Class Cruiser is far superier tho the Halcyon Class.

The Marathon Cruiser is superior to the Halcyon overall. It is after all the ship that replaced the Halcyon cruisers as the UNSC's cruiser of choice to begin with. The only exception is the Pillar of Autumn but that's only because it was specially outfitted.
