Asźod ship breaking yards: Difference between revisions

The '''Asźod ship breaking yards''' were a series of expansive industrial facilities on the [[human]] colony world of [[Reach]] at [[Asźod]]. Hundreds of [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] starships at the end of their operational life were taken apart in the facilities to be repurposed for spare parts and materials, and the surrounding landscape was littered with wrecks of spacecraft. Among them was the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}, which was being disassembled in a section of the facility that was under control of [[SinoViet Heavy Machinery]].

During the [[Battle of Asźod]], in the final hours of the [[Fall of Reach]] on [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]], the ship-breaking yards became the final off-planet extraction point on the [[Eposz]] continent.<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', campaign level ''[[The Package]]''</ref> As part of this, the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} performed a [[Class-L flash-dock]], landing near the ship breaking yards for repairs and to receive [[Cortana|an important package]] while the yards themselves were overrun with [[Covenant]] forces. Members of [[NOBLE Team]] rendezvoused with forces from the ''Pillar of Autumn'' here. A Covenant {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} was shot down during the battle by [[SPARTAN-B312]] to protect the ''Pillar of Autumn's'' escape.<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', campaign level ''[[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]''</ref>
