its what the pillar of autumn was fleeing from in the beginning of Halo 1. Reach is a planet colonized by humans, its the UNSC's biggest military stronghold, which could be why the covenant attacked it. Anyways, the pillar of autumn is fleeing from this battle because they're getting beaten, badly. All the spartans except for master chief have been basically killed or captured. So they know its important to keep him alive, they also have to protect cortana, who has all the intel on the human race. Halo Reach is obviously set at the time when the battle for reach is going on. My guess is that you'll be playing as a spartan, i dont know. Someone who's read the books could tell you better.
This is in the wrong forum by the way, you should've put this in the Halo Reach forum. : )
