SKYFALL - Halo - 1st Main

MODSET HAS UPDATED

  ++MISSION BRIEFING++

"I don't believe it! They're retreating, we won!"

- Malta Defence Co-ordinator, Malta Station, Earth, 20th October, 2552

After a hard fought victory in the defence of Arcadia, the Covenant are back for more. Unfortunately, the UNSC had to ship assets elsewhere and now the planet is woefully understrength. 3 Frigate Battlegroups are putting up a fight in orbit; but the Covvies have already broken a pair of corvettes through the battle line and begun landing troops on the surface.
With the forces we have; we can't hold the planet. Your orders are to keep the Icarus Airbase/Spaceport open for as long as possible while we evacuate as many civilians as we can. The Battle Groups think they can give us 2 hours of safety; after that we're on our own.
Keep the gates secure for 90 minutes, then we'll pull you out.
As a heads up, there's a NAVSPECWAR operation ongoing as well. A Spartan Team is being inserted into the AO. It is critical this team manages to make it off-planet.
Good luck.
