Summary

Marine squad Hacksaw request immediate Spartan assistance after coming under heavy fire from Covenant forces. Commander Sarah Palmer acknowledges and sends in Fireteam Crimson to reinforce the embattled marines. Shortly after arriving, Spartan Jared Miller points to three different locations Hacksaw units are holding up. After Crimson rescues the first group of marines, Hacksaw is temporarily re-assigned under Spartan command to support Crimson in their rescue operation. After rescuing the other groups of Hacksaw, Spartan Robert Dalton request the area to be cleared of Covenant reinforcements in order to send a Pelican dropship for extraction. After clearing the area, Crimson and the rest of the surviving marines are directed to the top of a Forerunner structure for retrieval. Before the Pelican arrives however, a pair of Phantom gunships arrive, one of which carrying a small contingent of Sangheili warriors. Crimson eliminates the group of Elites as well as the Phantoms before Dalton's Pelican arrives for extraction.

Transcript

Template:Expand-Section A Sangheili Storm orders a Kig-Yar Sniper around. Scene switches to two marines in cover.

  • Marine: "Infinity, this is Hacksaw. We're getting hit hard on all sides! We need reinforcements, ordnance-hell, I'd set up for a straight up evac right now!"
  • Palmer: "Man up, Hacksaw. Reinforcements inbound."
  • Miller: "That's all of the Phantoms, Commander!"
  • Palmer: "Told ya it wasn't a fair fight."

If the player saves two or more marines:

  • Palmer: "Textbook example of kicking ass. Well done, Crimson."

Or, if the player saves only one marine:

  • Palmer: "Well, Crimson, at least you got one marine out."

Or, if the player fails to save any marines:

  • Palmer: "Crimson, this was a search-and-rescue mission. I think you forgot the rescue bit."
  • Miller: "That's everyone. Crimson, you can head to the evac point."
  • Dalton: "Pelican is on point and waiting, Commander."
