Alpha Base (Installation 04): Difference between revisions

The second battle was [[Zuka 'Zamamee]]'s attempt to get into the base and kill the [[Master Chief]]. Approximately 6 [[Spirit|Spirit dropships]] full of [[Covenant]] and the traitorous [[D77-TC Pelican Dropship|Pelican]] Charlie 217 full of cloaked commando [[Elite]]s participated in the attack. The Pelican managed to touch down and release the Elites before it and the landing pad on which it was, was set aflame. However, Zuka 'Zamamee and the Elites had already fled and began in search of the Chief. Meanwhile, before being killed by the [[Stealth Elite]]s led by Zamamee, a valiant crewman, [[Cho]], gave the AI control of the 50 cals., with which he was successfully able to eliminate 1 [[Spirit|Spirit dropship]]. The remaining dropships released their troops further away from the base and attempted to assault it thus. In addition, the snipers expertly inflicted heavy casualties on the disembarking troops from the Spirit. In addition, the [[Wraith]]s bombarded their position. However, 2 of the [[Scorpion Tank]]s were entrenched and were able to cut down some of the onslaught. One of the casualties from the Tanks was the [[Field Commander]] of the attack. With their leader dead, lesser Elites attempted to assume command with little success. In the end, all remaining [[Covenant]] were either captured, killed, or forced to retreat. [[Yayap]] and [[Zuka 'Zamamee|Zamamee]] were able to survive by stealing one of the [[Banshee]]s that the [[Marine]]s had been able to salvage.
