In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', there are [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] '''radio conversations''' in most of the [[Multiplayer]] and [[Firefight]] maps. Some of the conversations are linked to each other to form a narrative.<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=49670283 '''Bungie.net Forums''': ''Turn Up The Radio: Radio Logs from Reach'']</ref>

===Red Team story arc===
===Anchor 9===
A number of radio logs can be combined to recreate the battle [[Beta-Red|Team Beta]] fought to protect [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-331|ODG A-331]] from [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] forces.
Radio is located on a table in the yellow building on the west side of the map (in the 'Weapons room' area). It involves an unnamed radioman giving orders to Delta-Romeo-two-three-zero and Charlie-Alpha-Alpha.


====Part 1 - Breakpoint====
Radio is located on the floor, next to the control panel near the window, in the Research Station.

*'''[[Bravo 001]]''': "Mayday, mayday! This is Bravo zero-zero-one, en route to your position. Do you have a visual on my aircraft, over?"
*'''[[Golden Arrow]]''': "Bravo zero-zero-one, this is Golden Arrow. I do believe you were steering that bird in the wrong direction, over."
*'''Bravo 001''': "Negative, Golden Arrow - I'm flying blind! You need to point me in the direction of the LZ."
*'''Golden Arrow''': "You got it, Bravo zero-zero-one; happy to oblige. Link up with Uniform Delta one-zero-one-five-three-niner-niner-zero, heading south-southwest. Slips about one-zero-zero knots. Advise you head for the treetops and fly straight at [[Mount Törött]]. We got more of them problems of our own down here."
*'''Bravo 001''': "I say again: ''that's a negative'', Golden Arrow. I've got [[SPARTAN-II Program|high value assets]] in tow and strict orders to drop them directly on your location, my bird ain't going to hold together all way to the [[Asźod ship breaking yards|boneyard]]. Need an LZ clear, over."
*'''Golden Arrow''': "With respect, Bravo - unless you have a cartful of [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon|tac-nukes]] with my name on it, you don't have anything of value in that bird. Get your ass to evac."
*'''Bravo 001''': "All right, Golden Arrow. If I can't set her down, I'll just drop these big Spartans on your head, out."
*'''Golden Arrow''': "Well, why didn't you say so? Come down close to the tree line at 2.3 klicks west of your current position. That's where me and my boys are, over."
*'''Bravo 001''': "I'm gonna need that LZ cleared, Golden Arrow; I'm gonna be right on top of you in three mikes."
*'''Golden Arrow''': "Hell, I'm gonna clear you a spot myself, Bravo. Look for the trooper with big-ass grin on his face."
*'''Bravo 001''': "Roger that, I'll see you. Out."

====Part 2 - Spire====
===Beachhead===
Radio is located on a large concrete pad alongside the dirt trail labeled 'Mountain Road'.
Radio is located in a room in the 'Pavilion' section that overlooks the south-west section of the map. It is near the spawn area and is the room that contains the missile launch control in the campaign.

'''[1]''': I need to know where I can send these people to.


*'''[[Recon 43]]''': "Gamma-One Actual, this is Recon 43. We are in position, over."
'''[2]''': You yelling in my ear isn't helping me find solutions any faster.


*'''[[Jake Chapman|Lt. Jake Chapman]]''': Recon 43, this is Gamma-One Actual. Gimme a radio check, over."
-----


*'''Recon 43''': ''(fading in)'' "Got eyes on three [[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghosts]] and twenty-four infantry. Typical scout detachment, please advise."
'''[1]''': The evac stations in Manassas and New Ezhtergom are no longer responding. They haven't been for...


*'''Chapman''': "Recon 43, do not engage. Sit tight and keep your eyes and ears open. I say again: gimme a radio check, over."
'''[2]''': (Fades in) I'm doing what I can here...The closest evac station to you is-


*'''Recon 43''': "Gamma-One Actual, we do not read you, say again, we do ''not'' read you, over."
'''[1]''': What?!


*'''Chapman''': "Recon 43, you are not cleared to engage. I say again, you are not cleared to engage!"
'''[2]''': Nevermind, I'm looking for another one.


*'''Chapman''': "Is there anyone else close to their grid? Dammit!"
-----


*'''Recon 43''': "Looks like we're on our own, boys. This is their eyes and ears, we flatten these guys and disengage. Tag your targets and get ready to go loud on my mark."
'''[2]''': Just, if you can, get your people into whatever vehicles you have over there, and...


*'''Chapman''': "Recon 43, this is Gamma-One Actual. I say again: you are to stand down and withdraw immediately. ''Do not engage'', over!"
'''[1]''': What are you talkin' about? [Static] Whoa? What was...


*'''Recon 43''': "Fire! That's it, make 'em count!" ''(gunfire)''
'''[2]''': That was a shockwave. You should move all of your people and just start heading West as fast as you can. I'll keep looking for...


*'''Chapman''': "What do we have that we can send to support them? Dammit!"
'''[1]''': This isn't a portable unit! I don't have any way to get back in contact with you.
-----


*'''Recon 43''': "Pull back, move and shoot, move and shoot! Where the hell did all these hostiles come from?"
'''[2]''': Look, I'm sending this over the IMF. It's the number to my personal chatter. Call me when you get everyone moving.


*'''Chapman''': "Tell [[Beta-Romeo Actual]] that the company we are expecting is going to be arriving a little earlier than we anticipated.
'''[1]''': Oh, God, thank you!


*'''Chapman''': "Recon 43, I say again: you are not cleared to engage! Stow your weapons, we are reading multiple inbound hostiles in your sector — you do ''not'' want their attention, over!"
'''[2]''': It's not over yet. I still have to find you a way off this rock.


*'''Recon 43''': "Aw, damn! Tip of the spear, nothin' - it's [[Fleet of Particular Justice|the whole godforsaken fleet]]! Fire, fire, fire!"
'''[1]''': Thank you, thank you!
 
|}
*'''Chapman''': "Recon 43, respond. Check in! I say again, Recon 43, do you read me? Dammit! Get [[Red Team]] up and running, high alert. We're about to have company."

*'''[[Lieutenant]] [[Buckman]]''': "Gamma-One, [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-412|Facility Alpha 412]] is overrun, and I'm heading to your location with what's left of Gamma-Five, over."


*'''Chapman''': "Gamma-Five? damn, it's good to hear you. How many are you bringing? I thought [[UNSC battle network|bee-net]] said your house got knocked down."
*'''Gamma 1''': Unknown station, this is Gamma-One-Actual. Do you read, over?


*'''Buckman''': "Confirm. [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-412|ODG-412]] is slag. Lost all but fourteen able bodies. Making our way over in two 'Hogs and a radio van."
*'''[[Iron Fist]]''': Gamma-One-Actual, this is Iron Fist. We read you. What is the current status of [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-331|Facility Alpha-331]]?


*'''Chapman''': "The more the merrier. Looks like we got makin's for a party. Some honest-to-god Spartans are ridin' up here with some boys from [[Third Mechanized|Third Mech]] as we speak."
*'''Gamma 1''': Facility Alpha 331 is overrun and offline, defense grid at uniform delta  is running at starvation levels. If you're taking survivors, we've got a few.


*'''Buckman''': "Hate to break it to you, Gamma-One, but Covie's hit us with two divisions at Alpha-412. How many Spartans you got on approach?"
*'''Iron Fist''': Negative, Gamma, we are en route to support [[Team Beta|Beta-Red]]. Any word on their status?


*'''Chapman''': "Gamma-Five, say again? That was two divisions, over?"
*'''Gamma 1''': None, over.


*'''Buckman''': "That's affirmative. We put a dent in 'em, but that's about it. The only reason I ain't one of them on the line with you right now is [[UNSC High Command|HighCom]] decided to drop every available asset right on top of 'em, and us. Over."
*'''Iron Fist''': Acknowledged. There is a temp evac station 50 klicks west along your current vector at Uniform-Delta-zero-zero-eight-niner-six-three-niner-eight-seven. I'll let them know you're coming.


*'''Chapman''': "Well, I hope you're bringing extra ammo then, Gamma-Five."
*'''Gamma 1''': Might want to tell them to pull up stakes. Beta-Red may be tough as hell, but I have no idea how long they'll be able to tie up two armor divisions.


*'''Buckman''': "All we could carry and then some. ETA twenty-five mikes, out."
*'''Iron Fist''': Say again, Gamma? Over.

====Part 4 - Countdown====
*'''Gamma 1''': I said Beta Red may be tough as hell but - oh, my god!
Radio is located in the south-east corner of the third floor, tucked behind a ridge of concrete near a fusion core.

|class="Box 2" style="border:1px solid #000066; padding: .5em 1em 1em; color: #000; background-color: #f0f0ff"|


*'''Beta-Romeo Actual''': "Gamma-One Actual, my team is in position. Get your people ready to move as soon as I give the signal, over."
*'''Iron Fist''': Gamma-One-Actual, we lost you, say again? Over.


*'''Chapman''': "With respect, Red - we might not be Spartans, but this is our home. My men will die here if I ask them to."
*'''Gamma 1''': Iron Fist, This is Gamma-One-Actual. Three Covenant [[Covenant Cruiser|cruisers]] just dropped out of cloud directly above us, holding at approximately twenty thousand feet, traveling due east at approximately three hundred knots - three-zero-zero knots!


*'''Beta-Romeo Actual''': "I don't doubt that, Gamma-One Actual. Let's hope we won't need them to. Defensive perimeter online."
*'''Iron Fist''': Visual confirm, Gamma 1. They just passed within 50 meters of our bird.


*'''Chapman''': "This is nuts. What in the hell are those autoturrets supposed to do against what they're bringin', over?"
*'''Iron Fist''': Go NOA and punch it, there's still a chance we can pull Beta outta there.


*'''Beta-Romeo Actual''': "Divide their attention."
*'''Gamma 1''': (disbelief) Wait a minute, you're not thinking of heading ''into'' that mess, are you?


*'''Beta-Romeo Actual''': "Visual! Thirty-two [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]] moving with two-hundred sixty infantry at 200 meters, closing on our lines due west at six kilometers per hour. Beta-Red, hold position until I trigger primaries, then close on their front line as fast as you can."
*'''Iron Fist''': Godspeed, and see you on the other side Gamma. Out.


*'''Chapman''': "Dammit, Red, I heard you [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]] were crazy. Gamma-Five: radio check, over."
[loops]
 
*'''Buckman''': "Five by five, Gamma-One Actual. [[F-99 Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle|Drone]] is holding station at ten thousand feet. We got eyes on the whole damn thing."
 
*'''Chapman''': "Those Spartans ''are'' crazy, they're gonna get us killed."
 
*'''Buckman''': "Holy ''(static)''! You're ain't gonna believe this! Beta Red just punched right up into the guts of that Covie column! Ever see a Spartan go hand to hand with a Wraith? Unbelievable!"
 
*'''Chapman''': "What are eleven Spartans gonna do against thirty thousand Covenant? They're dead men."
 
*'''Buckman''': "Can't argue that, but those Spartans just bought us some time - we might just make it outta this alive! Get ready to move, over!"
 
*'''Chapman''': ''(four beeps)'' "That's the signal! Let's get the hell outta here."

*'''Gamma 1''': Gamma 5, holy crap, [[Buckman]], d'you see that?
 
*'''[[Iron Fist]]''': "Gamma-One Actual, this is Iron Fist. We read you. What is the current status of [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-331|Facility Alpha-331]]?"
 
*'''Chapman''': "Facility Alpha-331 is overrun and offline, defense grid at Uniform-Delta is running at starvation levels. If you're taking survivors, we've got a few."
 
*'''Iron Fist''': "Negative, Gamma. We are en route to support [[Beta-Red]]. Any word on their status?"


*'''Chapman''': "None, over."
*'''Gamma 5''': See it? Felt that in my damn chest. Whoever pulled that trigger wanted those sons-of-bitches dead.


*'''Iron Fist''': "Acknowledged. There is a temp evac station 50 klicks west along your current vector at Uniform-Delta zero-zero-eight-niner-six-three-niner-eight-seven. I'll let 'em know you're coming."
*'''Gamma 1''': Can't believe we just walked outta that crater. We gotta be the two luckiest bastards on this whole planet.


*'''Chapman''': "Might want to tell them to pull up stakes. Beta-Red may be tough as hell, but I don't know how long they'll be able to tie up two armor divisions."
*'''Gamma 5''': Luck ain't got nothing to do with it, [[Jake Chapman|Jake]].


*'''Iron Fist''': "Say again, Gamma, over?"
*'''Gamma 1''': Think anybody could have survived that?


*'''Chapman''': "I said Beta-Red may be tough as hell but - oh my god!"
*'''Gamma 5''': You mean Beta Red? They say Spartans never die, but I don't think anything lived through that.


*'''Iron Fist''': "Gamma-One Actual, we lost you. Say again, over?"
*'''Gamma 1''': Damn, whole lotta real estate burning down there. Won't be much left once this is all said and done.


*'''Chapman''': "Iron Fist, This is Gamma-One Actual. Three [[Covenant cruiser]]s just dropped out of cloud directly above us, holding at approximately twenty thousand feet, traveling due east at approximately three hundred knots - three-zero-zero knots!"
*'''Gamma 5''': Here we are, hightailing it to anywhere else. Doesn't seem right.


*'''Iron Fist''': "Visual confirmed, Gamma-One. They just passed within 50 meters of our bird."
*'''Gamma 1''': Well, pretty soon won't ''be'' any place else to run to. What's next, [[Earth]]?


*'''Iron Fist''': "Go NOA and punch it, there's still a chance that we can pull Beta outta there."
*'''Gamma 5''': Jake, anyone tell you you talk too damn much?


*'''Chapman''': "Wait, you're not thinking of heading ''into'' that mess, are you?"
*'''Gamma 1''': All the time. What the hell else was there to do on Reach besides chase pioneer girls?


*'''Iron Fist''': "Godspeed, and see you on the other side, Gamma. Out."
*'''Gamma 5''': Now there's nothing. Now there's nothing at all. Five out.

*'''[[Golden Arrow]]''': Bravo zero-zero-one, this is Golden Arrow. I do believe you were steering that bird in the wrong direction, over.

*'''Alpha-20''': "CENTCOM, those cruisers are burning birds out to five-zero klicks; hell, they've hit civvy evac birds all the way out to CIS. Beta Red have gone above and beyond but there's no way out for them, they just bought us our window, now give me the go and I'll finish the job."
*'''Golden Arrow''': With respect, Bravo, unless you have a cartful of tactics with my name on it, you don't have anything of value in that bird. Get your ass to evac.


*'''CENTCOM''': "God help us... Go hot. Out."

*'''Alpha-20''': "Affirmative, we are go on the shoot."
*'''Bravo 001''': I'm gonna need that LZ cleared, Golden Arrow; I'm gonna be right on top of you in three mikes.


*'''UNSC ''Majestic''''': "Acknowledge. Shoot is a go, out."

*'''Buckman''': "See it? Felt that in my damn chest. Whoever pulled the trigger wanted those sons-of-bitches dead."
'''Blue-Delta''': "That's a negative, Dragon X-ray. I say again; be advised that you are the only UNSC asset in that area."

'''Blue-Delta''': "Understood, Dragon X-ray. Give 'em hell out there, and good luck."

*'''Unknown''': "For Pete's sake."
'''[2]''': Hell yeah.


*'''Joe''': "What?"
'''[1]''': Yeah? Maybe we could exchange notes.


*'''Unknown''': "You really love the idea that you're deep in the cloak-and-dagger BS, don't you? This is not a clandestine meeting, Joe, we're pulling everyone out because the planet is burning."
'''[2]''': Well, uh, I dunno man. Zombie plans are kinda... deeply personal things.


*'''Joe''': "Oh my god..."
'''[1]''': Well, I'm just saying, it's just, I got all these things in my mind, you know, and getting 'em out in the open really helps  reveal any flaws they might have.


*'''Unknown''': "If it'll help keep your mind off it, you can tell me what you've got."
'''[2]''': Makes sense.


*'''Joe''': "Halsey's new pet project, [[Cortana|this new AI]]. It's a generational leap - I'm not even sure that's strong enough language."
'''[1]''': Okay.


*'''Unknown''': "So it's a pretty big deal, huh? Any idea who the donor was?"
'''[2]''': Huh. So, zombies can still hear and stuff, so that makes guns a weapon of last resort, right?


*'''Joe''': "Just showed up one day. A couple of months after one of the annexes in Omega Wing was quarantined. Is that cloak-and-dagger enough for ya?"
'''[1]''': Yeah, yeah, guns all fire ammo, too.


*'''Unknown''': "Ha ha."
'''[2]''': Exactly. So I was thinking that, hey, what is a weapon that'll keep them out of grabbing range, AND won't run out of ammo? A  spear.


*'''Joe''': "And typical of her work ethic, she's given it total access to everything. It can bi-locate as well."
'''[1]''': Hold up.


*'''Unknown''': "What do you mean?"
'''[2]''': What?


*'''Joe''': "It can be in multiple places at the same time. Maybe multi-locate would be a more accurate term."
'''[1]''': Now, see, this is workin' already.


*'''Unknown''': "Like a waldo? What use is-"
'''[2]''': Huh?


*'''Joe''': "No, as a duplicate - capable of independent action. I've never seen it work in concert with itself, so I'm not sure if there's some technical issue with that, or..."
'''[1]''': Spear! I thought so too at one time, but the possibility of getting it stuck in the brainpan of a walking corpse is very real.


*'''Unknown''': "So maybe a safety issue? Or, just, you never saw it happen."
'''[2]''': Oh yeah, you're right. Man, I hadn't thought about that. Well, uh...


*'''Joe''': "Technical issue. Something that would make doing it impossible. A safety issue wouldn't stop Halsey."
'''[1]''': Ball-peen hammer.


*'''Unknown''': "Yeah, I guess not. You know what, let's get the hell outta here.
'''[2]''': But, you'd have to get right up on top of the zombie to use it, man.


*'''Joe''': "Isn't that what we were doing?
'''[1]''': Yeah, so if I'm the one running around killing zombies, man?


*'''Unknown''': "Sure, let's just keep moving.
'''[2]''': What?
 
'''[1]''': A single charged blow to the head would drop most zombies. It'd work on cheetahs, too.
 
'''[2]''': What the... There aren't cheetahs on Reach. Anyway, we should probably be working the kinks out of our alien invasion plan first. Aliens are smarter, faster, and more technologically advanced than zombies. They're also here. Zombies, not so much.
 
'''[1]''': When in doubt(?), you're reaching in a place no self-respecting Marine would spend any amount of time.

*'''[1]''': "This isn't a portable unit! I don't have any way to get back in contact with you."
*'''[1]''': Do you think the [[UNSC Army|Army]] showing up in [[Pálháza]] is connected to the [[Visegrad Relay|Visegrad hub]] going down?
----
*'''[2]''': "Look, I'm sending this over the IMF. It's the number to my personal chatter. Call me when you get everyone moving."


*'''[1]''': "Oh, God, thank you!"
*'''[2]''': Well, newsfeed says it was Insurrectionists. But if you're going to make a statement, why hit a remote place like Visegrad?


*'''[2]''': "It's not over yet. I still need to find you a way off this rock."
*'''[1]''': You think it was UNSC goons? Like, maybe they found out the [[United Rebel Front|URF]] was running a pirate station out of the Visegrad hub?


*'''[1]''': "Thank you, thank you!"
*'''[2]''': If that was the case, why blame the outage on an Innie success? Why not apologize for a temporary outage and play up the futility of resistance?

*'''[2]''': Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's the situation at the [[Office of Naval Intelligence|spook house]]?
*'''[1]''': I'm just saying we should be prepared for the worst, is all. We should—


*'''[1]''': Your [[James Ackerson|older brother]]'s [[SPARTAN-III program|pals]] are back in town by the truck-load.
*'''[2]''': So you think the next logical step is ''Covenant invasion''? Those guys blow up planets, not shut down local carrier hubs.


*'''[2]''': *sigh* I didn't know he had so many friends.
*'''[1]''': Visegrad isn't ''just'' a local carrier hub, though. It's one of the three hubs that connects the northern-out field with the main complex down south, and thus the rest of the colonies.
----
*'''[1]''': Well he does, but seeing how much he likes talking them up, you'd think he'd be more forthcoming with their actual numbers. What took you so long?
----
*'''[2]''': I believe your older brother's been hittin' the bottle again.  


*'''[1]''': Why's that?
*'''[2]''': Okay...


*'''[2]''': He broke my cousin's radio and pulled the phone outta the wall.
*'''[1]''': I'm saying this is either a very ballsy and strategically-sound move on the Innies part, and we're in the middle of a ''coup d'etat''...
----
*'''[1]''': You know, I've been saying this for more than a year now: I get the feeling he's gonna chase [[Michael Stanforth|dear old dad]] outta his own home again and slap together another spook house in the back yard.  


*'''[2]''': Dammit, he's been spending so much time with the Doc, it does seem like the perfect time for tricks and treats.
*'''[2]''': Or?
----
*'''[1]''': Well I hope your cousin isn't going be too disappointed, but I have a sneaking suspicion that Halloween may have to be postponed.


*'''[2]''': Yeah, just so long as we don't have to cancel Christmas.

*'''Blue-Delta''': "Understood, Dragon X-ray. Give 'em hell out there, and good luck, out."
*'''Gamma 5''': That's affirmative. We put a dent in 'em, but that's about it. The only reason I ain't one of them on the line with you right now is [[UNSC High Command|HighCom]] decided to drop every available asset right on top of em, and us. Over.

*'''Alpha 20''': Copy, ''Majestic'', target number KT 2005.


*'''[1]''': "Yeah, yeah. Guns all fire ammo, too."
*'''UNSC ''Majestic''''': Shot, over.


*'''[2]''': "Exactly. So I was thinking that, hey, what is a weapon that'll keep them out of grabbing range, AND won't run out of ammo? A spear."
*'''Alpha 20''': Shot, out.


*'''[1]''': "Hold up."
*'''UNSC ''Majestic''''': Splash, over.


*'''[2]''': "What?"
*'''Alpha 20''': Splash, out.


*'''[1]''': "Now, see, this is workin' already."
*'''UNSC ''Majestic''''': Rounds complete, over.


*'''[2]''': "Huh?"
*'''Alpha 20''': Rounds complete, out.


*'''[1]''': "Spear! I thought so too at one time, but the possibility of getting it stuck in the brainpan of a walking corpse is very real."
*'''Alpha 20''': <fade in> Alpha 20 to Majestic, all three target vehicles neutralized. I don't even want to guess what happened below.


*'''[2]''': "Oh yeah, you're right. Man, I hadn't thought about that. Well, uh..."
*'''UNSC ''Majestic''''': I copy, Alpha. End of mission, all three target vehicles neutralized. It's been fun, hope we get a chance to do it again. Out.


*'''[1]''': "Ball-peen hammer."
*'''Alpha 20''': God willing. Out.


*'''[2]''': "But, you'd have to get right up on top of the zombie to use it, man."
(loops)
 
*'''[1]''': "Yeah, so if I'm the one running around killing zombies, man?"
 
*'''[2]''': "What?"
 
*'''[1]''': "A single charged blow to the head would drop most zombies. It'd work on cheetahs, too."
 
*'''[2]''': "What the... There aren't cheetahs on Reach. Anyway, we should probably be working the kinks out of our alien invasion plan first. Aliens are smarter, faster, and more technically advanced than zombies. They're also here. Zombies, not so much."

*'''[1]''': "Do you think the [[UNSC Army|Army]] showing up in [[Pálháza]] is connected to the [[Visegrád Relay|Visegrad hub]] going down?"
*'''[[Recon 43]]''': Gamma 1 Actual, this is Recon 43. We are in position, over.


*'''[2]''': "Well, newsfeed says it was Insurrectionists. But if you're looking to make a statement, why hit a remote place like Visegrad?"
*'''[[Gamma 1]]''': Recon 43, this is Gamma 1 Actual, gimme a radio check, over.


*'''[1]''': "You think it was UNSC goons? Like, maybe they found out the [[Insurrectionist#Trivia|URF]] was running a pirate station out of the Visegrad hub?"
*'''Recon 43''': <fading in> Got eyes on three [[Ghost]]s and twenty-four infantry. Typical scout detachment, please advise.


*'''[2]''': "If that was the case, why blame the outage on an Innie success? Why not apologize for a temporary outage and play up the futility of resistance?"
*'''Gamma 1''': Recon 43, do not engage. Sit tight and keep your eyes and ears open. I say again, gimme a radio check, over.


*'''[1]''': "Well, what do you think it is, then? If it ain't the Innies, and the UNSC isn't spinning it..."
*'''Recon 43''': Gamma 1 Actual, we do not read you, say again, we do ''not'' read you, over.


*'''[2]''': "Nah, brother, don't even say it."
*'''Gamma 1''': Recon 43, you are not cleared to engage. I say again, you are not cleared to engage.


*'''[1]''': I'm just saying we should be prepared for the worst, is all. We should—"
*'''Gamma 1''': Is there anyone else close to their grid? Dammit!


*'''[2]''': "So you think the next logical step here is ''Covenant invasion''? Those guys blow up planets, not shut down local carrier hubs."
*'''Recon 43''': Looks like we're on our own, boys. This is their eyes and ears, we flatten these guys and disengage, tag your targets and get ready to go loud on my mark.


*'''[1]''': "Visegrad isn't ''just'' a [[Communication relay|local carrier hub]], though. It's one of the three hubs that connects the northern Alföld with the main complex down south, and thus the rest of the colonies."
*'''Gamma 1''': Recon 43 this is Gamma 1 Actual. I say again, you are to stand down and withdraw immediately, do not engage, over.


*'''[2]''': "Okay..."
*'''Recon 43''': Fire, that's it, make 'em count! <gunfire>


*'''[1]''': "I'm saying this is either a very ballsy and strategically-sound move on the Innies part, and we are in the middle of a ''coup d'etat''..."
*'''Gamma 1''': What do we have that we can send to support them? Dammit!


*'''[2]''': "Or?"
*'''Recon 43''': Pull back, move and shoot, move and shoot! Where the hell did all these hostiles come from?


*'''[1]''': "Or the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] is here and it's already too late."
*'''Gamma 1''': Tell [[Beta Romeo Actual]] that the company we are expecting is going to be arriving a little sooner than we anticipated. <fades out> (directed to Recon 43) I say again, you are not cleared to engage! Stow your weapons, we are reading multiple inbound hostiles in your sector—you do ''not'' want their attention, over!

*'''[[Unidentified Lieutenant (Tempest)|Lieutenant]]''': "Knowing who made it doesn't help us, Revis. We gotta figure out ''how'' they made it, and how it ''works''."
*'''Gamma 1''': Recon 43 respond. Check in. I say again, Recon 43, do you read me? Dammit. Get [[Red Team]] up and running, high alert. We're about to have company.


*'''Revis''': "Well... Not "us" us, right?"

*'''Lieutenant''': "Yeah, premo. Probably not "us" us."
 
*'''Revis''': "Even if we box everything up in this place, hell, if we drove the whole damn thing back to [[Earth]]—"
 
*'''Lieutenant''': "I never figured you for a pessimist, Revis. Money and time, that's all it'll take. Money and time."

A radio conversation is supposedly found on this map. It is said to be found under the downed UNSC [[Longsword]] on the beach. <ref>http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=53577081</ref>
 
*'''Revis''': "You figure the [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] eggheads are gonna be able to figure this all out? And quick enough for it to matter?"
 
*'''Lieutenant''': "They gotta. If they can't, we're kinda screwed."
 
*'''Revis''': ''(chuckles)'' "Ha, and ''I'm'' the pessimist."
