- Isabel: "No, no, no..."
At Allieri's Pelican, only four sniper survives the crash.

Allieri lead two Snipers while one sniper is already scouting ahead.
- Allieri: "Sniper team, this is Sergeant Allieri. The Banished defenses got the drop on us and grounded Jerome and Isabel's Pelican on the way to the grav-lift. Get to the crash site and rendezvous with them for new orders."

- Allieri: "Suicide Grunts! Take them out from range!"
The snipers takes Suicide Grunt down first before focusing on other infantries.
After clearing them out, the Banished deployed cloaked Plasma mines.
- Allieri: "Watch out, the Banished are deploying cloaked mines. Step carefully and clear them out as you go."
The Snipers are using drones to detect any cloaked mines to destroy it.
- Allieri: "We know the Banished are using cloaking technology, but your detectors should be able to spot any hidden units."
The Sniper Team continue to advance carefully while taking out any Banished patrols they spot. They clear Plasma Mines along the way and even captured Power Nodes after clearing Plasma Mines.
Once capturing it, the Sniper Team proceed to take out any enemy infantries and another line of Plasma Mines was set near Jerome's Pelican.
- Allieri: "Jerome's pelican crashed just up ahead, team."
The team clear out the Plasma Mines and finally reaches Jerome's Pelican while Banished's dead bodies are scattered around his Pelican.

- Jerome-092: "Glad to have you with us. We're going to need your eyes to spot any more Banished surprised. Let's move out."
Once rendezvousing with Jerome. They start to move out, clearing any infantries as the Sniper scout ahead and taking out enemy infantry as they advance.
After clearing them out, they reach where they can see Banished's base beneath them.
- Isabel: "Now that we're on foot we're going to have to deal with the Banished base between us and the grav-lift."
- Jerome-092: "Captain, we're going to need support to fight our way through to the lift. Appreciate the help, sir."
Cutter send three Kodiak and 2-slot minibase are avaiable.
- Isabel: "Increased Banished comms chatter, Jerome. They know we're here."
- Jerome-092: "You heard Isabel, let's make sure we're ready for them. If we lose our base we won't have the reinforcements to take the grav-lift."
Once the base has been set, Allieri and his team went to scout ahead to clear out infantries, mines and coincidentally, Jiralhanae Warlord.
If Kodiak is taking fire.
- Kodiak: "I won't last long without support, over!"
- Kodiak: "I'm taking fire, need support ASAP!"

- Jerome-092: "Good work, everyone. Captain, the Banished base is clear."
- Isabel: "Jerome, let's get to that grav-lift before i have second thoughts!"
Jerome and the UNSC arrives at the entrance to the grav-lift but the defenses around the grav-lift has yet to be ceased.
- Isabel: "Those turrets are still active around the grav-lift, Jerome. We're going to need some heavy armor to destroy them."

Trivia
Strategy
- It is a must that player establish Supply Pad and Barracks on Jerome's side as Generator can be provided from capturing Power Node.
- Except at Alice's Unit where player will found more Minibase, utilize it carefully as Banished can retaliate in any time.
- Sniper is a very effective troops against infantries but make sure you have to keep them alive at early of the mission as they are critical in defeating all infantries before rendezvousing with Jerome. The lesser snipers, the harder chance to win the game.
- Hit and run is the best startegy to deal with Jiralhanae Warlords, Snipers can take it out without being hit.
- Similar to One Three Zero level, cleanse the map from Banished's silos. It will provide extra resources for you.
- There will be no Kodiak's replacement on Jerome's team, protect it with Snipers.
