Asźod: Difference between revisions

{{Era|HCW}}

'''Asźod''' was a barren, unpopulated territory on the continent of [[Eposz]] on [[Reach]].<ref>'''[[Halo Mythos]]''', ''page 89''</ref> The territory was home to several industrial facilities, including a [[Asźod ship breaking yards|ship-breaking facility]], where {{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, Asźod 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 Asźod]], where [[Emile-A239]] died and [[SPARTAN-B312]] made a [[wikipedia:Last stand|last stand]] after successfully delivering a fragment of [[Cortana]] to ''Pillar of Autumn''. The [[Spartan-III]] stayed behind to defend ''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 territory, having been overwhelmed by Covenant infantry.<ref name="lone">'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level, ''[[Lone Wolf]]''</ref>

Other than the ship-breaking yards, Asźod 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 [[Thirteen dead Spartans|many dead Spartans]] were found.<ref name="lone"/>
