The UNSC Diadochi (AE-830) was an ammunition ship commissioned by the UNSC Navy.
History
The vessel crashed onto an Earth-like planet at some point, likely after the Human-Covenant War.[note 1] The survivors managed to salvage provisions and construct a shelter with the debris field. When the UNSC arrived with rescue units, the crew members had already developed a thriving community among the crash site. Circa February 2558, the Template:UNSCship's SPARTAN-IV complement used a recreation of the ship's crash site in their War Games exercises.[1]
Etymology
The ship was named after the rivals, relatives, and friends of Alexander the Great, known as the Diadochi. Their Wars of the Diadochi were fought after his death in 323 BC over control of his empire throughout some forty years. It marked the beginning of the Hellenistic period of Greece.
Production note
Diadochi's crash site and the surrounding makeshift structures are the setting of the Halo 4 multiplayer map Exile.
