The Corps' experienced another encounter with the Covenant on the colony world of [[Sigma Octanus IV]] in [[2552]]. Upon landing, the Marines' hardware and equipments were rendered useless due to the planet's harsh environment. In the first stage of the battle, during a naval engagement, a Covenant [[DDS-class carrier]] was able to land a large contingent of troops on the northern pole of the planet. The Covenant were able to take [[Côte d'Azur]], a major population center. Fortunately almost all of the civilian population was evacuated beforehand, but the UNSC Marine Corps' [[General (UNSC)|General]] [[Kits]] launched a failed assault to retake the city. | The Corps' experienced another encounter with the Covenant on the colony world of [[Sigma Octanus IV]] in [[2552]].
