Complex is | Formally titled "War Games Map_Set/: 615-3", Complex is holographic reconstruction of [[Galileo Base]], used during [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[War Games]] combat simulations. Galileo itself was a makeshift UNSC research facility located on the northeastern coastline of [[Requiem]]'s largest continent. With the presence of numerous hostile entities on Requiem, ONI rigidly enforced a "Persistent Field Resilience" mandate requiring that all science detachments (1) maintain onsite weapon caches, (2) optimize the site's layout to meet ONI spec for defensive emergencies, and (3) retain an escort of well-trained military personnel. | ||
The base | The base was built around a [[Forerunner]] artifact that was in the process of being excavated. The base's central structure is a multilevel building with a tall Forerunner object in the center. The facility appears damaged in at least one location (the building in the center of the map contains broken monitors). Lots of flora are present, the most prominent being the almost [[Ugparassa tree|asparagus-like trees]] and the pink-red ferns. | ||

Galileo Base was a critical site during Infinity’s [[Requiem Campaign|protracted ground campaign]] on Requiem, against [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] in [[2558]]. Although this location was intended to be solely a science facility, ONI's "Persistent Field Resilience" mandate proved well-founded, as the Covenant laid siege to Galileo numerous times, spurring multiple [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan IV Fireteams]] into action.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/requiem '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Requiem'']</ref> | |||
