Hub:Halo 3/Locations

Voi is an industrial port town in East Africa, now-situated on the outermost edge of the Artifact. The town has since come under occupation by the Covenant, and is now the site of numerous anti-air batteries preventing an aerial assault on the Artifact beyond.

Tsavo is a desert expanse in Kenya. The wastes have become a vicious battleground for humanity and the Covenant in Africa, the landscape littered with the skeletal remains of the fallen Mombasa Orbital Elevator. Controlling the highway running through the region could be key to ensuring victory on Earth.

Crow's Nest is an old military facility located in Kenya, and now the primary operating base of the UNSC resistance forces in the East Africa region. Crow's Nest hosts a large garrison of Marines, and is the last bastion for UNSC holdouts against the Covenant on Earth.

The Artifact is a gargantuan Forerunner megastructure of unknown purpose buried beneath the sands of Africa. When the Covenant invaded Earth, they concentrated all of their forces on the East African megacity of New Mombasa. Within the day, the aliens had begun digging and excavating a massive Forerunner relic hidden beneath the Earth for unknown millennia. Now, the Excession at Voi has been uncovered, and the Forerunner Dreadnought has made landfall on its surface. The UNSC now believes the Artifact to be the Ark - the key to activating - or preventing the activation of - Halo.
