In [[2531]], during their search for a key to activate [[The Apex]], the Covenant showed interest towards [[Arcadia]], as [[Relic (Structure)|a structure]] on [[Harvest]] pointed them towards the planet. The Covenant forces traveled to Arcadia with two [[CCS-class Battlecruiser]]s. [[CCS-U321|One]] was destroyed, but the [[CCS-U624|other one]] engaged in surface activity, attacking [[Pirth City]] and searching for [[Forerunner]] artifacts on the planet. After they found the ruins, the Covenant deployed a massive dome-shaped energy shield on the planet surface to prevent the UNSC forces from reaching the structures.<ref>''[[Halo Wars]]'' level, ''[[Dome of Light]]''</ref> | In [[2531]], during their search for a key to activate [[The Apex]], the Covenant showed interest towards [[Arcadia (Planet)|Arcadia]], as [[Relic (Structure)|a structure]] on [[Harvest]] pointed them towards the planet.

The [[UNSC]] forces established a base at the abandoned [[ONI Base (Arcadia)|ONI Base]] in proximity of the ruin complex, and managed to breach the energy barrier with a few [[Rhino]]es, and after securing the area they established a [[Station|base]] and proceeded to investigate the area. However, the Covenant had started to build a [[Type-47 Ultra Heavy Assault Platform #Super Scarab|Super Scarab]] in front of the main structure, to keep the UNSC forces away from it. | The [[UNSC]] forces established a base at the abandoned [[ONI Base (Arcadia)|ONI Base]] in proximity of the ruin complex, and managed to breach the energy barrier with a few [[Rhino]]es, and after securing the area they established a [[Station|base]] and proceeded to investigate the area.
