Despite the Marines cheating, the Spartans were still victorious, winning once again; this time by infiltrating the base and detonating [[Stun Grenade]]s beneath Tango company's barracks buildings, inflicting many casualties. Then, neutralizing the guards around the flag pole with [[Narq-dart Pistol]]s, the Spartans snatched the flag and hid in the trees. Tango Company sent a [[D77-TC|Pelican]] transport in an effort to trick the Spartans into thinking their exfiltration craft had arrived. But, not fooled, the young supersoldiers once again outsmarted and overcame the hapless Marines.
