*This battle was portrayed in the lead-up advertising campaign prior to Halo 3's release. The fashion in which it is portrayed is considered to be non-canon. It was part of Microsoft's Halo 3 Ad Campaign and not Bungie's work. Microsoft at that time had no control or idea of [[Halo 3]]'s story, and therefore it is not present in said canon. Also, it does not appear in [[Halo 3]] or [[Halo: Uprising]]. | *This battle was portrayed in the lead-up advertising campaign prior to Halo 3's release.

Likewise, the battle indeed may ''have'' taken place, with [[John-117]]'s participation added to provide an official explanation for his disappearance. | ||
*There are no Elites shown in this battle, this is because their fleet, although had established an alliance with Humanity, did not officially arrive back at Earth until the battle of [[Voi]] (aside from the [[Thel 'Vadam|The Arbiter]]). | *There are no Elites shown in this battle, this is because their fleet, although had established an alliance with Humanity, did not officially arrive back at Earth until the battle of [[Voi]] (aside from the [[Thel 'Vadam|The Arbiter]]). | ||
