'''''Pilgrims' Pride''''' was a [[human]] civilian [[freighter]] in operation up to some time before [[2558]].{{Ref/Comic|Id=HE4|HEsc|Issue=4}} | |||
==History== | |||
As part of a plot to kill [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]], [[insurrectionist]] [[Daniel Clayton]] and mercenary [[Vata 'Gajat]] launched the ''Pilgrims' Pride'' from [[Oth Lodon]] in [[2558#March|March 2558]], a gas giant in the middle of [[Jiralhanae]] territory.{{Ref/Comic|Id=HE5|HEsc|Issue=5}} In March 11, a distress signal broadcasted on an old maritime channel was picked up by the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}. The signal was found to be originating from the ''Pilgrims' Pride'' near the [[Artesia-702 system]] and [[Chaudier trade route]]. When ''Infinity'' arrived in the system, it found the damaged freighter leaking atomic matter with faint life signs aboard. ''Infinity'' tugged the ship into one of its deployment bays. An ambush was sprung within the bay when the freighter set itself to self-destruct and multiple UNSC aircraft exited its cargo bay. [[Fireteam Majestic]] was deployed along with Fireteams [[Fireteam Colossus|Colossus]] and [[Fireteam Fenrir|Fenrir]] to repel the attack and prevent the freighter from self-destructing inside the ''Infinity''.{{Ref/Reuse|HE4}} | |||
When the attackers went into retreat, Fleet Admiral Hood ordered their [[F-41 Broadsword]]s to provide cover for the [[Pelican]] tugs as they pulled the freighter out the deployment bay. The Spartans survived the detonation by ejecting the ship's core just before it exploded inside the ship. Following the skirmish, ''Infinity's'' after action teams discovered that the freighter's assault crafts were those attached to a long-lost warship, the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}.{{Ref/Reuse|HE4}} | |||
== | ==Production notes== | ||
The design for ''Pilgrim's Pride'' was done by [[Nicolas Bouvier|Nicolas "Sparth" Bouvier]], former art director at [[343 Industries]]. The early sketches (shown below) were later posted by him online alongside his other concept work for various spacecraft featured in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', such as the {{Class|Star Charter|colony support ship}}.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://sparth.tumblr.com/post/152315185957/halo-5-and-other-spaceships|Site=Tumblr|Page=Halo 5 and other spaceships.|D=09|M=07|Y=2023}} | |||
