The UNSC had formulated a plan to end the war. A platoon of [[SPARTAN-II]]s would hijack a Covenant ship, head to their [[High Charity|home planet]], kidnap the [[High Prophets|Covenant leadership]], and use them to broker a truce with the Covenant. The Spartans were aboard the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|UNSC ''Pillar of Autumn'']] with Captain Keyes and his crew. They were just about to leave for their mission when a signal ordered their immediate recall to Reach to defend the planet against a [[Battle of Reach|massive Covenant attack]]. [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] [[John-117]] ordered the majority of the SPARTANs to the planet's surface to protect the generators for the [[Orbital Defense Platform]]s while he and two other Spartans boarded [[Reach Station Gamma]] to secure an unprotected NAV database aboard the [[ONI]] corvette Circumference. | The UNSC had formulated a plan to end the war.

The battle was a disaster for the numerically-inferior UNSC fleet, despite the [[Orbital Defense Platform|Super MAC Guns]], resulting in the planet's destruction by means of [[glassing|plasma bombardment]]. CASTLE base was destroyed after the planet's fall and the Covenant began searching for a [[Forerunner crystal]]. UNSC forces finally abandoned the planet during the [[Raid of Reach]], a few weeks later. | The battle was a disaster for the numerically-inferior UNSC fleet, despite the [[Orbital Defense Platform|Super MAC Guns]], resulting in the planet's destruction by means of [[glassing|plasma bombardment]].
