The Covenant invaded Gamma Halo in an attempt to use the Forerunner [[Conduit]] to open [[slipspace portal]]s throughout the installation. The Covenant intended to use the portals to transport a massive Promethean force onto the ringworld, which would aid in the Covenant's takeover of Installation 03. However, the attack was repelled due to the efforts of two [[Headhunters]] and the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] stationed on the installation.<ref name="canonfodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-striking-features '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Striking Features'']</ref> | The Covenant invaded Gamma Halo in an attempt to use the Forerunner [[Conduit]] to open [[slipspace portal]]s throughout the installation.
