==Defenses==

The defenses of Alpha Base consisted mainly of UNSC personal that survived the crash of the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]. A number of stationary ~~50 cal. guns~~ were in place and linked to the base's AI, Wellsley. ~~Also, the~~ base had several makeshift landing pads where dropships could be docked and refueled in relative safety. Later, this position was reinforced by a group of LRV Warthogs and at least 2 of 4 Scorpion tanks that were recovered from the downed [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]. ~~Also, due~~ to successful raids and the attack upon the [[Truth and Reconciliation]], at least 4 plasma turrets known as "Shades" were set up in defense of the base. Unfortunately, these turrets ~~could not be fired by the AI~~. Also, 15 operational Covenant Banshees were recovered. A basic perimeter was set up and monitored through motion trackers by the [[AI]] Wellsley. Pelicans had quick strike teams in place if their was a perimeter breach that could respond in about 2 minutes. ~~Also~~, a combination of LRVs and captured Ghosts were used as patrols, effectively combining power and speed.

Finally, a combination of LRVs and captured Ghosts were used as patrols, effectively combining power and speed.

At its strongest point, the bases defenses were as followed:

*Battalion of ODSTs led by [[Major Silva]].

*Most of the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]'s remaining crew that were not captured or in cryo stasis.

*Two 50mm ~~auto-turrets~~ (AI operated).

*Two 50mm autoturrets (AI operated).

*High amounts of light and heavy weaponry (both UNSC and Covenant grade).

*4 [[Shade]] turrets.
