'''The Scorching of the Thicket''' is the twenty-second mission of ''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]''. | '''The Scorching of the Thicket''' is the twenty-second mission of ''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]''. | ||
==Introduction== | ==Introduction== | ||
[[Parg Vol]]'s camp was easily defendable, but [[Sarah Palmer|Spartan Palmer]] neutralized the perimeter guard and moved in. The real challenge would be in accessing Parg Vol's vehicle - a Covenant [[R'shwupa-pattern Phantom|Phantom]]. | |||
While a combat technician was bypassing the Phantom's security protocols, Parg Vol made his return. When he realized Palmer's intent, he ordered a full frontal assault on her position. With heavy plasma artillery raining down from a platoon of [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]s, Palmer held off the infantry just long enough for the technicians to succeed. | |||
==Objectives== | |||
===Defend the engineer until the Phantom is operational=== | |||
[[Sarah Palmer|Spartan Sarah Palmer]] stands near a UNSC technician that is operating on [[Parg Vol]]'s {{Pattern|R'shwupa|Phantom}}. Two [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC Marines]] stand guard nearby. Spartan Palmer must defend the engineer for four minutes until he can bypass the Phantom's security protocols. Palmer moves forward and encounters several advancing [[Unggoy Minor]]s, but she quickly kills them all. Numerous [[Unggoy Major]]s and Minors attack Palmer's position but she is able to fend them off and kill most of them. Several [[suicide attack|suicidal Unggoy]] charge at Palmer and the engineer, but the Spartan is able to eliminate them. Soon, several [[Kig-Yar Minor]]s lead the massive amount of Unggoy soldiers into battle. After several minutes of fighting, heavy plasma artillery fire from a platoon of {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}}s begins to explode around Spartan Palmer. | |||
Soon, [[Sangheili Minor]]s begin to charge into battle, leading the Covenant assault force. [[Sangheili Major]]s lead Minors and Kig-Yar and attack Palmer and the engineer. After a long firefight, Palmer is able to defeat and eliminate the Covenant forces. As large amounts of Kig-Yar and Sangheili forces continue to attack Palmer, a [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]] arrives and charges into battle against the Spartan. However, Palmer is eventually successful in killing him. Soon, [[Stealth Sangheili]], Majors, and Minors arrive and attack the Spartan. Palmer is able to fend of the Covenant forces and deal massive causalities to their assaulting forces. | |||
===Board the Phantom=== | |||
After four minutes, the engineer is successful in bypassing the Phantom's security protocols and the gunboat is now operational. The engineer and UNSC Marines board the Phantom and Palmer is given fourteen seconds to do the same. Eventually, Palmer boards the Phantom and its back hatch closes behind her. As Covenant forces approach the Phantom, it takes off. | |||
