It, along with another battlecruiser, labeled ''[[CCS-U321]]'', exited slipspace near [[Arcadia]] on [[2531#February|February 9, 2531]]. They were immediately engaged by four UNSC ships. During the battle, ''U624'' destroyed two UNSC vessels, the ''[[UNSC Texas|Texas]]'' and the ''[[UNSC Belfast|Belfast]]'', and severely damaged the ''[[UNSC Armstrong|Armstrong]]'' and the ''[[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]''. However, ''CCS-U321'' was caught with its shields still down and was destroyed. After the space battle, ''U624'' moved planet-side and started deploying ground forces, quickly overwhelming the UNSC troops there.<ref>'''Halo Wars''', campaign level ''[[Arcadia City]]''. </ref>
==History==
In February [[2531]], after the location of the [[Outer Colony]] of [[Arcadia]] was discovered during the [[Harvest campaign]], the [[CCS-class battlecruiser]] that would become known as ''CCS-U321'' was sent to the planet alongside the battlecruiser that would become known as ''[[CCS-U624]]''. Upon arrival, both ships were attacked by the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|UNSC ''Pillar of Autumn'']], the [[UNSC Belfast|UNSC ''Belfast'']], the [[UNSC Texas|UNSC ''Texas'']] and the [[UNSC Armstrong|UNSC ''Armstrong'']]. The four UNSC vessels managed to catch ''CCS-U321'' with its shields down and destroy it, but ''CCS-U624'' destroyed the ''Belfast'' and the ''Texas'' and caused heavy damage to the ''Armstrong'' and the ''Pillar of Autumn'' before continuing on. After the space battle, ''U624'' moved planet-side and started deploying ground forces, quickly overwhelming the UNSC troops there.
 
When the [[UNSC Spirit of Fire|UNSC ''Spirit of Fire'']] arrived at Arcadia after the space battle, the ship's smart-[[AI]] [[Serina]] reported on the events to Captain [[James Cutter]].<ref>'''Halo Wars''', campaign level ''[[Arcadia City]]''. </ref>


Given that the UNSC were successful in repelling the assault, it is highly probable that ''U624'' retreated or was destroyed in its attempt to escape the planet.
