Timeline
300 Spartan-III's are landed on the surface of Pegasi Delta via Long Range Stealth Orbital Insertion Pods. Ahead of them eight Black Cat subprowlers are sent and one STARS was sent to orbit the planet. The last pod lands at 1135 Hours on July 3, 2545. Nine of the Spartans are killed on impact, the other 291 begin a frontal charge of the facility. As they are charging, they are attacked by waves of Seraph fighters and Sniper Jackals which, despite the Spartans' SPI Armor, cut down over a hundred of them by the time they are out in the open close to the facility. It is at this point that seven Covenant cruisers appear and begin landing Elite and Jackal forces while using their intraship plasma weapons to rain fire on the pinned Spartans. They panic and declared a code Omega Three.
Four Spartan-III's make it to the facilities' core, but two are quickly killed. These two Spartans sucessfully overload the core, then escape by jumping off a cliff into a deuterium ocean. They watch as the rest of the company is pinned and slaughtered by the Covenant forces just before the facility blows, destroying everything. The two Spartan-IIIs retreat aboard one of the eight pre-inserted Black Cat subprowlers to the All Under Heaven.
