'''Alpha Base''' was a [[UNSC Defense Force]] [[military base]] located in the northern polar regions of [[Harvest]] during the [[Harvest campaign]]. Overrun by the [[Covenant]] at some point, it was later reinforced by the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} in [[2531#February|February 4, 2531]] with the help of [[Sergeant]] [[John Forge]].{{Ref/Level|HW|Alpha Base (Halo Wars level)|Alpha Base}}


The base was in proximity of the [[Forerunner]] [[Relic (location)|Relic site]], which was scouted by Forge. Alpha Base was rebuilt with resources from ''Spirit of Fire'' and then used to launch an attack on the Relic. Forces from the base aided in taking the Relic and stopping its destruction by the Covenant.{{Ref/Level|HW|Relic Approach}} However, the base couldn't send forces to help Professor [[Ellen Anders]] and Forge inside the Relic in time, forcing the ''Spirit of Fire'' to send help directly.{{Ref/Level|HW|Relic Interior}}
The base was in close proximity of the [[Forerunner]] [[Relic|Relic site]], and was used as a base of operations in the UNSC operation to assault the structure. After being reinforced by the ''Spirit of Fire'', the UNSC forces managed to breach the Covenant defenses around the Forerunner complex and access it. The base was likely abandoned after the ''Spirit of Fire'' left the planet.<ref>'''[[Halo Wars]]''', campaign level ''[[Relic Approach]]''</ref>
