Greetings once again! Today, I have a Halo battle report for you written by Landlubber. You can find the original version on the forums. Without further ado:
********************************************
//////////EYES ONLY COMMAND STAFF SECTOR THREE////////////
TO: Commander, 19th Fleet
FROM: Operations Division, 19th Fleet
SUBJECT: After Action Report–Omicron Station engagement
1. Executive Summary. Vice-Admiral (VADM) Stanforth moved combined elements of Task Force 169 and Task Force 408 to Omicron Station (Sector Three) for reconnaissance (see Image 1). (Operations note: Omicron Station was abandoned last year after coolant leaks were discovered in the station’s main power core. No repair personnel were available at the time to repair the leaks, so the station was evacuated.) VADM Stanforth was under orders to scan Omicron Station and determine status of station power core. On arrival, one Covenant ORS-class heavy cruiser was detected behind a nearby planetoid. (ONI note: this vessel is likely the Eternal Entropy.) VADM Stanforth moved UNSC forces to engage the ORS, and were ambushed on both flanks by Covenant battlegroups led by CCS-class cruisers. UNSC losses were as follows: one heavy carrier (UNSC Everest), three heavy cruisers (UNSC Ku, Agurzil, and Minerva); 12 frigates.
