Editing Sigma Octanus IV/Grid 13 x 24

{{Era|FOR}}.
'''Grid thirteen by twenty-four''', on planet [[Sigma Octanus IV]], is a location deep in the jungle on the planet, just outside the outskirts of the city of [[Côte d'Azur]]. Though covered by dense foliage, it is also home to a river and several rocky embankments, which serve well to conceal bases.<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], pages 165/166</ref>

In the early 2500's, a meteor crashed in this Grid. Unbeknownst to the [[human]] colonists, the meteor contained [[Forerunner]] artifacts. The colonists took some of the artifacts from the meteor and put them in the Côte d'Azur museum of natural history.<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], page 233/234</ref>

In [[2552]], during [[The Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]], the [[UNSC]] [[Marines]] set up a [[Firebase]] in [[Planetary Grid|Grid]] 13 x 24, [[Firebase Bravo]]. They hoped the embankments would hide the base. Unfortunately, they were wrong. The [[Covenant]] ambushed the base and destroyed it, slaughtering most of the Marines when a force of [[Grunts]], [[Jackals]], and [[Hunters]] overwhelmed the group.<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], pages 164-169</ref> A lucky band of survivors, led by [[Corporal Harland]], managed to make it all the way to [[Alpha Headquarters]], where they were relieved by the [[Spartans]].
