New Carthage
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
New Carthage is a human colony planet of the Unified Earth Government, presumably located among the Inner Colonies.[note 1] The MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Infiltrator, developed by Hannibal Weapon Systems, was tested on the orbital defense platforms above New Carthage.[1] The Hannibal Weapon Systems facility also developed multiple MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor variants at Kotka, Pori on New Carthage.[2][3] At some point a thermal reactor located underneath the city of Pilvros was failing, and as a result the city was evacuated.[4]
New Carthage is host to the New Carthage Sprint Series, a competitive motorsport event that features the colony's deadly wildlife, rugged terrain, heavy weapons, and talented driving skill.[5] New Carthage is the homeworld of Dr. Henry Glassman.[6]
Locations
Trivia
