During a firefight with [[Insurrectionist]]s lasting for approximately [[seven]] hours, [[Ridge]], a member of [[Cadmon Lasky]]'s [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers|ODST]] [[squad]] was killed. Afterwards, Cadmon estimated that he must have killed a dozen of the Insurrectionists. Sometime later, Cadmon and the rest of his squad was [[killed in action]] on the planet.<ref name="fudp3"/> The fighting continued on the planet for nearly a decade, until the realization of the true threat of the [[Covenant]] caused Andesia's citizens to realign themselves with the UNSC and UEG to survive. The colony ultimately survived the [[Human-Covenant War]], although tensions between the planet's citizens and the UNSC remained high. [[SPARTAN-IV]]s are trained in a [[War Games]] simulation based of of Noctus to prepare them for the eventual rise of insurgents on the planet, and to have them ready to secure strategic facilities when said insurrection occurs.<ref name="cannonfodder"/>
