Raid on Verge

The Battle of Verge was an engagement that took place on the human colony world of Verge between the United Nations Space Command and the Covenant Empire in mid-2552.

Battle
After the Covenant invasion of the Epsilon Eridani System and the invasion of Tribute, SPARTAN Team Black was sent to the ruined city of Cuidad de Arias on Verge, a UNSC colony invaded by the Covenant some months back, to destroy a Covenant Beacon, in order to cut off their supply of helium-3 to the ships blockading Tribute. They succeeded in their mission, despite accidentally setting free a penal colony of Yanme'e Unmutuals in the process.
