Having been extracted from the war between the Covenant and Flood, Fireteam Raven were deployed via [[M12B Warthog]] with a new mission; assist a convoy of UNSC Marine forces making one final assault on the ''Pillar of Autumn''. The assault consisted of a handful of Falcon gunships, Warthogs and Pelicans attempting to distract Covenant forces to buy time for John-117 to complete his mission. The convoy fought through heavy Covenant resistance, including Phantoms and Wraiths before being alerted to the arrival of the Spartan in a Banshee commandeered from the ''Truth and Reconciliation''.{{Ref/Reuse|HFR Last Stand}} Although the Covenant aircraft largely ignored the Banshee - thinking it one of their own{{Ref/Reuse|flood12}} - the [[Type-47B Scarab]] in the region began to bear down on it, chased by Fireteam Raven.{{Ref/Reuse|HFR Last Stand}}

The Spartan, through Cortana's instruction, fought his way to the ship's bridge. The UNSC AI started the ship's [[self-destruct]] sequence, only to discover to her dismay that the Guilty Spark had halted the sequence. Cortana deduced that the Monitor was in Engineering and was attempting to take the ''Autumn's'' engines offline. John-117 decided to overload the engines by manually cracking the engine's magnetic containment fields.{{Ref/Level|Id=themaw|CE|The Maw}}

During the battle aboard the ''Autumn'', the few remaining UNSC survivors rallied for a final defensive action around the crash site to prevent the Covenant or the Flood from interfering with the Chief's mission, having learned of his intentions to destroy the ring. The Covenant sent a [[Type-47B Scarab]] to destroy the UNSC forces and then to ambush the Chief aboard the cruiser, but this assault was thwarted by the ODSTs of [[Fireteam Raven]]. The remaining Marine forces were then overrun and all survivors in the immediate vicinity were left at the mercy of the ''Autumn's'' imminent detonation.{{Ref/Reuse|That's So Raven}}{{Ref/Level|Id=HFR Last Stand|FTR|Last Stand (Halo Wars 2 level)|Last Stand}}
