Operation: LAMENTATION

rdfs:comment

After the catastrophic failures as Unmoving Virtue and Pious Ascension, the Blood Covenant had learnt from its mistakes. While other colonies fell before the combined UNSC and Sangheili planet-hopping campaign, Expansive Judgement, the new Blood Covenant, was fortified by a massive fleet. Modelling themselves on the Second Fleet of Homogenous Clarity that protected High Charity, the Expansive Judgement Defence Fleet formed a virtually impenetrable barrier of ship patrols, preventing infiltration and presenting a formidible wall of firepower against any incoming enemy ships. Though UNSC and Sangheili warships possess a significant advantage over their Blood Covenant counterparts, the sheer numbers and scope of the defensive perimeter would overwhelm an attacking force.

After the catastrophic failures as Unmoving Virtue and Pious Ascension, the Blood Covenant had learnt from its mistakes. While other colonies fell before the combined UNSC and Sangheili planet-hopping campaign, Expansive Judgement, the new Blood Covenant, was fortified by a massive fleet. Modelling themselves on the Second Fleet of Homogenous Clarity that protected High Charity, the Expansive Judgement Defence Fleet formed a virtually impenetrable barrier of ship patrols, preventing infiltration and presenting a formidible wall of firepower against any incoming enemy ships. Though UNSC and Sangheili warships possess a significant advantage over their Blood Covenant counterparts, the sheer numbers and scope of the defensive perimeter would overwhelm an attacking force. The events of Operation: CORSAIR, however, would provide the basis of a UNSC offensive action intended to cripple this fleet. Discovering a Kig-yar privateer base near a Blood Covenant hydrogen/deuterium/tritium refinery station in orbit over Gargarensis, a gas giant further out in the system than Expansive Judgement shrouded a field of debris, the UNSC formulated an operation designed to insert an attacking battlegroup with a pinpoint slipspace jump in order to destroy the refinery station, as well as a number of Kig-yar privateer colony asteroids. The refinery provided crucial gases for the Blood Covenant, especially weapons-grade and fuel-grade plasma - without it, the fleet would soon literally grind to a halt, becoming ineffective, leaving the colony vulnerable.
