*[[Second Battle of Harvest]]. The UNSC and Covenant meet in a fleet-action for the first time; though only one Covenant ship faces a UNSC battle-group of 40, it is a rare (or unique) superdestroyer with a power comparable to a Covenant assault carrier. The battle is a high-priced victory for the [[UNSCDF]], costing the UNSC 13 ships--about one third of the battle-group that was assembled to face the threat. The Covenant would return to Harvest later in the year, and the battle for the planet and its surrounding systems, dubbed by the UNSC as the [[Harvest Campaign]], would last for the next five years.

*[[Battle of Circinius IV]]. The Covenant attacked the UNSC [[Corbulo Academy of Military Science]] on [[Circinius IV]], catching the cadets there off guard and sparking a massive ground battle for control of the Academy. The Spartan [[Blue Team]] was deployed to fight the Covenant soldiers and to evacuate the trainees who were forced to engage the enemy in close-quater combat. The battle resulted in the near-complete extermination of the planet's population, including those of the Corbulo Academy save for the survivors of [[Hastati Squad]].

*[[Battle of Alpha Aurigae]]. Another ship-to-ship battle, where the UNSC outnumber the Covenant almost 10-1, but lost a third of the ships. This was one of the rare naval "victories" for the UNSC, won because of their numerical superiority over the Covenant in that battle.
