The Battle of Alpha Corvi II was one of the earliest conflicts of the decades-long Human-Covenant War, fought between the Covenant and the combined forces of the United Nations Space Command and local insurrectionists on Alpha Corvi II.
Prelude
In the short time that the UNSC and the Covenant had been aware of one another, the Covenant had begun to probe various Outer Colony worlds.

Battle
On December 3, 2525, a substantial Covenant force emerged from slipspace near Alpha Corvi and proceeded to move toward the system's second planet. UNSC ships in orbit mounted a defense but a number of Covenent dropships managed to land troops on the surface. At just three hours after first arriving in the system, Alpha Corvi II's largest city, Jamshid, was under assault by the main contingent of ground-based hostiles. Marines were holding their own there but enemy reinforcements were anticipated.
It was at this point that the four young Spartan-II warriors picked to comprise Blue Team were briefed on the attack. They were en route to the system aboard the Halcyon-class light cruiser, Template:UNSCship. Lieutenant Commander Yao informed the Spartans that they would be dropping on the outskirts of Jamshid and engaging the Covenant from the rear. Their objective was to lessen the pressure on the main UNSC garrison within the city so that a proper counterattack could be prepared. It was also imperative, they were told, that they operate independantly of Ground Command and in fact refrain from having any contact with anyone from the Marine Corps whatsoever.
