Summary
Tip of The Spear will be an action heavy, vehicle centered mission set during the daytime. The mission begins with Noble Six fighting alongside Catherine-B320, Noble Team's second-in-command in a large counter-attack against the covenant, and later Jorge-052 to destroy a large tower that is powering an electromagnetic shield around a Covenant base.[3] Later in the mission, Noble Six will be shot down and will have to complete part of the mission on foot. Noble Five and Six will then encounter a Covenant Supercruiser that was cloaked. The next mission will involve taking it out via Covenant Corvette.
