Long Night of Solace[1] is the sixth campaign level in Halo: Reach.[2][3][4] and is set in the beginning of the battle for the planet.[4]
Summary
The Covenant invasion of Reach is in full force, and Catherine-B320 has come up with a plan to take the fight to the enemy. Noble Team, minus Emile-A239 and Jun-A266, are dropped off to a beach by a UH-144 Falcon, and they must fight their way into a UNSC Sabre launch facility that is under attack by Covenant ground and air forces. Once inside, Noble Six and Jorge-052 enter a Sabre that is immediately launched into the planet orbit along with at least one other Sabre. Once in space, they join the other UNSC forces in defending the station Anchor 9 and assist a UNSC Savannah in attacking a Covenant Corvette.[3]
Trivia
- This level was the first campaign level of Halo: Reach to be unveiled to the public. A shorter version of the level was first showcased in the Halo: Reach E3 Campaign Demo during the Microsoft press conference at E3 2010.
- This is the first level in the Halo series to feature playable ship-to-ship combat.[3]
- Jun and Emile are noticeably absent in this mission.
- In the first part of the space battle, it looks as though the Banshees and Seraphs are exiting Slipspace.
- It is possible that the multiplayer map Countdown is based on a section of this mission.
- The objectives for the Corvette are to take down its shields and destroy the engines while the UNSC Savannah attacks.
- Interesting fact is that it's known to others as the fourth mission during the E3 Expo and now as the sixth mission.
