This '''Jiralhanae encampment''' was a base of operations set up by the [[Jiralhanae]] during the [[Battle of Installation 05]], located within a series of [[Forerunner]] structures in the cliffs near the [[Control Room (Installation 05)|control room]] of [[Installation 05|the installation]].{{Ref/Book|Id=H2SG|Halo 2: The Official Strategy Guide|Page=138, 143}}{{Ref/Level|Id=Uprising|H2|Uprising}}
This '''Jiralhanae encampment''' was a base of operations set up by the [[Jiralhanae]] near the [[Control Room]] of [[Installation 05]] during the [[Battle of Installation 05]]. The encampment was located within a series of [[Forerunner]] structures and caves in the cliffs surrounding the control center.{{Ref/Book|Id=H2SG|Halo 2: The Official Strategy Guide|Page=138, 143}} The camp consisted of two parts; one medium-sized, forward base, and a larger, secluded base referred to as the [[Bastion of the Brutes]], which was incorporated into the cliffside.
   
   
==Layout==
==Description==
The encampment comprised of a cluster of Forerunner structures that were built into the mountainous walls at the base of a winding ravine. These structures were linked by a passageway that contained a central room, which was used as a makeshift armory by the Jiralhanae during their occupation, and a small cave connected the camp to an adjoining canyon, where Installation 05's control room was located.{{Ref/Reuse|Uprising}}
[[File:H2AJiralhanaeEncampmentEntrance.png|250px|thumb|left|A camp set up at the entrance to the full encampment.]]
The initial encampment was set near a waterfall, in the form of two circular basins with structures in the hillsides. When [[Thel 'Vadam]] and his strike team reached this, they faced heavy resistance from numerous Jiralhanae, Kig-Yar, and a pair of Wraiths. The forward base was also home to an assemblage of weaponry, kept by the Jiralhanae in an "armory" in the center of the complex. After pushing through the base, Thel 'Vadam and a group of Sangheili he led met up with an armored convoy, led by Rtas 'Vadum. The Wraith there proved invaluable in the assault on the Control Room, with Thel 'Vadam leading the charge. After destroying the Jiralhanae guards, which again consisted of Wraiths and many Ghosts, Thel 'Vadam ventured into the second encampment.


==History==
The [[Bastion of the Brutes|second encampment]] was inside of a Forerunner structure, and led up to a landing platform, with which a Scarab was docked in.
{{Main|Battle of Installation 05}}
During the [[Battle of Installation 05]], [[Jiralhanae]] forces deployed to the surface of the installation took control of this encampment, along with many others within the vicinity of the Halo's [[Control Room (Installation 05)|control room]]. The encampment was used by the Covenant to store large amounts of their own weaponry, as well as those taken from [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] forces during the battle. The structures were occupied by numerous Jiralhanae and their [[Kig-Yar]] subordinates, and were guarded by a pair of {{Pattern|Muz|Wraith}}s.{{Ref/Reuse|Uprising}}


During the opening stages of the [[Great Schism]], [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee led a [[Sangheili]] force through the nearby structures and ravines, clearing out the forces of the Jiralhanae-led [[Covenant]] that had betrayed them. The [[Covenant separatists|separatist]]s soon attacked the encampment itself, and fought their way through through to the cave beyond. The Arbiter proceeded alone, and eventually joined forces with [[Rtas 'Vadum]]ee.{{Ref/Reuse|Uprising}} The two would go on to assault the nearby [[Bastion of the Brutes]] in order to secure a docked {{Pattern|Protos|Scarab}} to use to gain access to the control room.{{Ref/Level|H2|The Great Journey}} 
===Armory===
     
The Jiralhanae had a small "armory" in a room/hallway halfway through the encampment, consisting of typical [[Covenant]] [[weapons]]: a [[Fuel Rod Gun]], [[Type-50 particle beam rifle]], [[Covenant Carbines]], {{Pattern|Kewu R'shi'k|plasma rifle}}s, [[Brute Shots]], [[Type-1 plasma grenade|Plasma Grenades]] and captured [[human]] weapons including [[M90 shotgun|shotguns]], a [[M41 SPNKR|rocket launcher]], and some [[frag grenade]]s. The Arbiter made good use of these weapons (despite his fellow Elites regarding them as "vulgar"). The rocket launcher and [[Pez'tk-pattern fuel rod gun|fuel rod gun]] proved to be helpful in Thel 'Vadam's assault, neutralizing Jiralhanae-controlled Wraiths and Ghosts.
==Production notes==
The encampment is not formally named in ''[[Halo 2]]'' itself, only being named in ''[[Halo 2: The Official Strategy Guide]]'', where it is identified as the "Brute encampment".{{Ref/Reuse|H2SG}}


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
The eleventh [[Terminal (Halo 2: Anniversary)|Terminal]] in ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' can be found in an alcove on the encampment's first structure, before the small rock bridge leading to the armory room.
*On [[Legendary]] difficulty, sometimes a [[Brute Honor Guard]] will come out of the armory, and often berserk out of no where.
 
*Neither the Rocket Launcher nor the Fuel Rod Gun found in the Armory will transfer over to the next level. However, the 3 frag grenades will carry over unless the player still carries over either the Fuel Rod Gun or Rocket Launcher.
