| ===Fall of Reach===
| |
| {{Main|Fall of Reach}}
| |
| The UNSC ''Aegis Fate'' was present during the Covenant's invasion of Reach in the summer of [[2552]]. It was assigned to bring fire support for a group of Marines fighting on the ground and offered as a support element for [[Dragon X-ray]], though the operator refused, fearing that its firepower could cause collateral damage.{{Ref/Game|Halo: Reach|Detail=''[[Courtyard]]'' [[Halo: Reach radio conversations#Courtyard|radio conversation]]}}

|
| ===Post-Reach=== | | ==Background== |
| {{Main|Sandtrap}}
| | n the ensuing [[Battle of Installation 00]], the ''Aegis Fate'' was last seen in a stationary position in the atmosphere of [[Installation 00]] over a Brute encampment in the desert regions of Installation 00. The ''Aegis Fate'' was believed to have played a role in leveling Brute resistance in their desert encampment and have deployed two [[Behemoth-class Troop Transport|''Behemoth''-class Troop Transport]]s and one [[Albatross]], ''[[03]]'', that were found nearby the encampment. |
| After escaping Reach, the ''Aegis Fate'' was deployed to an abandoned [[Jiralhanae]] excavation site on [[Installation 00]].{{Ref/Site|Id=postmortem|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=Sandtrap_Postmortem|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Sense of Scale - Postmortem|Detail=A postmortem anaylsis of Sandtrap.}}{{Ref/Note|Id=waypoint|1=In Bungie's [https://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=Sandtrap_Postmortem Sandtrap postmortem], a section of Sandtrap's design document reads ''"Deep within the boundless dune-fields of Waypoint, the high tech Forerunner structure encases the remnants of even older Forerunner stonework."''. During development of ''Halo 3'', "Waypoint" was the name given for the structure that would come to be known as The Ark.}} It deployed at least one [[Albatross]] to the surface, though it crashed for reasons unknown.{{Ref/Reuse|Sandtrap}}

| ==Production notes== | | ==Assignment== |
| Prior to ''Halo 3''{{'}}s release, the ''Aegis Fate'' was thought to be a UNSC [[wikipedia:battlecruiser|battlecruiser]], as descriptions found in the ''[[Halo 3 Beta]]'' described it as such.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3159937|Site=1up.com|Page=Halo 3 Info Revealed Through Beta Code, Mag Scans}}
| | It was assigned to the [[UNSC Home Fleet]] during the [[First Battle of Earth|First]] and [[Second Battle of Earth]] when the confrontation concluded with the [[Covenant Loyalist]] withdrawal through the [[Forerunner]] [[Portal]]. |
|
| |
|
| In the ''[[Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta]]'', the radio conversation mentioning ''Aegis Fate'' was on ''[[Overlook]]''<ref name="radio">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H82rzf1LmSc '''Youtube''': ''Reach Radio Chatter.wmv'']</ref> before being moved to ''[[Courtyard]]'' in the retail release.
| | The [[Sangheilian Fleet]] pursued them several hours later through the Portal, and the UNSC ''Aegis Fate'' was one of the UNSC warships attached to the Elite fleet as well as the [[UNSC Forward Unto Dawn|UNSC ''Forward Unto Dawn'']]. |
|
| |
|
| In the now-cancelled game ''[[Halo Online]]'', the ''Aegis Fate'' was seen hovering high above the multiplayer map ''[[Reactor (Halo Online map)|Reactor]]''.
| | ==Behind the Scenes== |
| | *The UNSC ''Aegis Fate'' can be seen if one looks towards the northeastern<ref>''[[Halo 3: The Official Guide]]''</ref> patch of uncloudy sky on the ''[[Halo 3]]'' multiplayer map ''[[Sandtrap]]''. |
|
| |
|
| ==Trivia== | | ===UNSC Battle Cruiser=== |
| *The ''Aegis Fate'' is prominently featured in the northeastern{{Ref/Book|[[Halo 3: The Official Guide]]|Page=??}} patch of unclouded sky on the ''Halo 3'' multiplayer map Sandtrap.
| | {{Quote|A UNSC battle cruiser looms menacingly over [[Shrine]]'s sprawling sand dunes...|www.1up.com, commenting on ''[[Shrine]]''}} |
| *''[[Wikipedia:Aegis|Aegis]]'' was name of the goddess Athena's armor in Greek mythology. It was originally Zeus', which he made from the hide of a goat who raised him.
