• Intercepted Covenant communications that refer to a UNSC Colony by name.<br />• Discovery of hard physical evidence of Covenant activity.<br />o Abandoned or discarded matériel.<br />o Residue and/or damage consistent with Directed Energy Weapon usage.<br />• Detection of multiple in-system Slipstream Space rupture events.<br />• Engaged in combat by Covenant forces.<br />This term is a report that has the highest precedence in the OPREP-Γ reporting structure. All other reporting terms such as GOOSE CHASE, SNAKE PIT, et al, while very important, should be considered secondary to this report.<br />____________________________<br />ref.
