Mission 7: Reactor Field Relief

Reactor Field Relief is the seventh mission of Halo: Spartan Assault.

Introduction
UNSC technicians had built numerous magnetic reactor stations across Draetheus V. The western reactor field was one of the largest of these stations and was of great interest to the Covenant. Luckily, the trench-like layout of the reactor field provided the Marines stationed there with a terrain advantage and Covenant infantry platoons had significant difficulty in seizing the station.

After supporting the Marines at Faraday, Spartan Sarah Palmer moved to provide support in the western reactor field. Palmer's prime objectives were to protect several squads of M9 Wolverines and halt the Banshees providing air support to the Covenant infantry.

Reach the first group of Wolverines
Spartan Sarah Palmer and three UNSC Marines stand in the ruins of a UNSC facility. The four move north and encounter a fourth Marine engaged in a firefight with Unggoy Minors and a Sangheili Minor. Further north, numerous Marines are in a large battle against Covenant forces nearby three M9 Wolverines. As Palmer approaches the Wolverines, a Type-26 Banshee flies overhead.

Defend the first group of Wolverines
The Wolverines are charged at by several Unggoy Minors and suicidal Unggoy forces. As several more Banshees fly overhead, a Sangheili Minor arrives to command the Unggoy. Once the Marines and Palmer succeed in destroying all Covenant forces in the area, Palmer and several Marines continue west.

Reach the second group of Wolverines
They encounter some suicidal Unggoy, while a Wolverine rests on a cliff and flies at nearby Banshees. As Palmer and the Marines progress west, more Unggoy led by Sangheili Minors attack the humans. Manoeuvring north west through a maze of supply crates, Palmer and the Marines fight through large amounts of Sangheili and Unggoy forces. As the Spartan passes the crates, the second group of Wolverines can be seen in the distance sitting in a debris field of the remnants of destroyed UNSC vehicles. Many Elite and Grunt forces attack Palmer and the Spartans, including more suicidal Unggoy. Numerous Banshees fly overhead.

Defend the second group of Wolverines
Palmer and the Marines eventually reach the second group of Wolverines. However, they are attacked by numerous Sangheili and Unggoy forces that are intent on destroying the Wolverines. Numerous suicidal Unggoy charge straight at the Wolverines. During the firefight, several Sangheili enter the battle by landing in Covenant drop pods. After a long engagement, Palmer and the Marines eventually succeed in eliminating all Covenant forces around the Wolverines.
