==History== | |||
After the Human-Covenant War, several major corporations in [[Mindoro]], the [[city|capital city]] of Cascade, backed the construction of a new [[space elevator]] in the city. The elevator's terminus, [[Nova Austin Station]], was slated to become the most important commercial [[Spaceport|spaceport]] on the planet when completed. This construction site was reproduced as a [[War Games]] simulation for the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s SPARTAN-IV complement.{{Ref/Map|Id=skyline|H4|[[Skyline]]}}<ref>[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/02/20/The-Halo-Bulletin-22013.aspx '''Halo Waypoint''': ''The Halo Bulletin 2.20.13''] (Defunct)</ref> | |||
In the post-Covenant War years, conflict also arose on Cascade, which led to the deployment of [[SPARTAN-IV program|SPARTAN-IVs]] to the planet. [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR GEN2's]] outer-plate gauntlets were developed for the Spartans fighting on Cascade.{{Ref/Game|H4|Detail=Outer-plated gauntlet description}} The [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Protector]] GEN2 variant was used in raids on Mindoro and [[Volamon]] on Cascade.{{Ref/Book|Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide|Page=160}} Additionally, the [[ODST armor#MJOLNIR GEN2 variant|MJOLNIR (GEN2) ODST armor]] was also produced on the planet.<ref name="bulletin7.10.13">[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/07/10/The-Halo-Bulletin-71013.aspx '''The Halo Bulletin''': ''7.10.13''] (Defunct)</ref> | |||
