The Battle of Alpha Aurigae was a major battle in the early years of the Human-Covenant War. The human fleet, consisting of 117 ships,[1] engaged 12 Covenant warships, destroying the enemy force but losing a total of thirty-seven ships in the process.[2] It was one of the rare naval "victories" for the UNSC.
Trivia
- Although the short story The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J. Cole clearly states that Preston Cole had one hundred seventeen ships under his command, Halo Wars: Genesis states he only had one hundred seven. The reason behind this ten-ship discrepancy is currently unknown, though it could be a misprint.
