Featured article

The Battle of Harvest was an engagement in the Human-Covenant War between the United Nations Space Command and the Covenant. It was one of the first major human battles with the Covenant in space, and the return of Admiral Preston Cole to the UNSC Navy.

Following the loss of the colony Harvest to the Covenant in 2525, the UNSC assembled a battle group to retake the planet on March 1, 2526. Led by Vice Admiral Preston Cole, UNSC Battle Group X-Ray engaged an enormous Covenant super-destroyer. Due to superior numbers and Cole's leadership, X-Ray was successful in defeating the Covenant but suffered heavy casualties in the process. At the cost of thirteen human ships, the alien starship was destroyed when its shields were overwhelmed with the largest show of firepower yet in humanity's history.
