Picking up from the [[Catherine/Spartan Mountain|previous chapter]], [[SPARTAN-IV Program|Spartan]] [[Jared Miller]] informs [[Sarah Palmer|Commander Palmer]] that a large [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] force is closing in on [[Fireteam Crimson| | Picking up from the [[Catherine/Spartan Mountain|previous chapter]], [[SPARTAN-IV Program|Spartan]] [[Jared Miller]] informs [[Sarah Palmer|Commander Palmer]] that a large [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] force is closing in on [[Fireteam Crimson|Crimson's]] location. Automated defense turrets retrieved from Mountain Squad's crashed Pelican are activated by the Spartans throughout the [[Two Giants|canyon]] in order to shore up their defenses. As several large Covenant [[Heavy orbital insertion pod|drop pods]] and [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] dropships arrive, carrying an assortment of Covenant [[Storm]] units, Palmer requests from Miller a proper assessment of all enemy forces in the area. Miller immediately responds by saying they are considerable amounts of Covenant headed towards the Spartans location. Palmer contacts [[Robert Dalton]], asking if her "emergency dispatch" is ready for departure. Dalton acknowledges and says it is leaving the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}. | ||
The situation turns grim as more Phantom dropships arrive, including one carrying a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]. Fireteam Crimson do their best to defend the area by keeping close to their turrets, making use of captured Covenant equipment, and using a variety of [[UNSC]] weaponry provided from the crashed Pelican. Palmer then informs the team that her "emergency dispatch" has arrived. A lull in the fighting has her bring in four [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] transports, each ferrying a [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark IX Armor Defense System|Mantis]] Armored Defense System. As Crimson make use of the powered exoskeletons, multiple waves of [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshee]] fighters, supported by Phantom gunships, arrive in an attempt to re-take the canyon. As the fighting continues, Dalton comes online and informs Palmer that a Covenant {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}} has been spotted within the vicinity. Miller confirms the report, saying it is closing in on Crimson's location. | The situation turns grim as more Phantom dropships arrive, including one carrying a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]].
