'''Aszod''' was a | |||
'''Aszod''' was a region on the planet [[Reach]] at [[Eposz]]. The region was home to several industrial facilities, including a [[Aszod ship breaking yards|ship-breaking facility]], where the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} was dry-docked on [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]] during the [[Fall of Reach]]. | |||
During the final stages of the battle, Aszod was the only off-planet extraction point left on the continent.<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', campaign level ''[[The Package (level)|The Package]]''</ref> It was the site of the [[Battle of Aszod]], where [[Emile-A239]] died and [[SPARTAN-B312]] made a [[wikipedia:Last stand|last stand]] after successfully delivering a fragment of [[Cortana]] to the ''Pillar of Autumn''. The SPARTAN-III stayed behind to defend the ''Autumn'' from a massive Covenant air assault,<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]''</ref> and was killed in action elsewhere in the region, having been overwhelmed by Covenant infantry.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Lone Wolf]]''</ref> | |||
Other than the ship-breaking yards, Aszód also appeared to be used for transport of natural resources, evident by large pipe-lines spreading across the landscape. A small set of warehouses in between two gas pipes was where a [[Unidentified SPARTAN unit (Aszod)|SPARTAN]] team also made their last stand against Covenant forces.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Lone Wolf (level)|Lone Wolf]]''</ref> | |||
