Fochun (Japanese for "Fortune")

Established by Japanese industrialists looking for ship-building metals. (A mining colony)

UNSC controlled and regulated. Almost no subversive activity recorded in the sector since the colony's original establishment.

Mostly an industrial hub, exporting valued minerals and metals for the human war effort.

Small scale Covenant incursion repelled by orbital+ground defenses. No reprisals from the Covenant.

Name: Hope

Classification: Prison/Mining Planet

Status: Friendly

Description: Founded origonally as a planet to drop the most wretched of scum in the UNSC, they discovered rich mineral ore and established it as both a prison and a resource world. The inmates were made to mine minerals. The inmates founded a new religion, and through it they sought redemption in the eyes of their lord. During the Human-Covenant war, inmates that were mining resources discovered an ancient forerunner relic. Soon after the discovery, the planet came under siege by the covenant. The planets defenses, designed to shoot down heavy transport ships should a prisoner riot break loose and some prisoners attempt to escape, managed to hold off the bulk of the covenant invasion force for several hours into the night. All of the inmates were given weapons and the chance to redeem themselves by serving the UNSC as drafted soldiers. If they managed to fend off the covenant they would earn their freedom. The next day, the defenses fell, but as the covenant began to invade the planet the Great Schism erupted. The covenant forces became divided, and eventually the seperatists sided with the humans on the planet. Hope was the planet where the seperatist unsc truce pact became official, giving the planet its name.

About me: I am a vicious wolf of a man.

But really am sweet at heart. =)

Mechanite
Established by: United Nations Space Command Naval Shipyards
UNSC Inner Colony
Titanium A, Experimental Titanium C Battleplate, Iron ore, UNSC Military Ships

In 2548 the Covenant launched an attack against the colony, however the UNSC was prepared. The area around the planet was covered in a huge asteroid belt already, and many HORNET and SHIVA nuclear mines were placed in it for further determent. The only way into the system was through a narrow "lane" covered by three dozen super MAC guns in orbit around the colony.

The colony was lost, but not before all the shipbuilding equipment and mined ore were evacuated off world. This marked the only engagement in the war where Covenant losses out numbered UNSC ones.

UNSC losses
1 Marathon class cruiser
2 Cole class destroyers
4 Halsy class frigates
5000 Naval casualties
2000 Marine casualties
200 civilian deaths.

Covenant Losses
1 Battleship
2 Assault Carriers
3 Cruisers
6 Destroyers
18 Frigates
Est. 200,000 military dead

Planet: Bestial
Star and Position: FLEETCOM Section Three, Yatei System, third planet.
Established by: UEG (United Earth Government) and UNSC (United Nation Space Command)
Status: Active, friendly
Moons: Three: (Volatile, Euphrates and Yeti)
Resources: Mining ores such as Titanium, exotic metal material such as Titanium-B and super-dense silicone diamond-like, agriculture and some exotic materials such as rubber, oil and deuterium
Satellites: Medical Facility, Navigational Beacon AA/56, five refit stations and four Orbital Defense Platforms
Diameter: 11,567 miles (18,454.347 kilometers)
Length of Day: 28 hours
Length of Year: 396 days
Gravity: 1.10 G
Population: 201,789,567
Technology Tier: Tier 3

History:

August 9th, 2551, a small Covenant fleet (16 warships) were detected in sector B4/7A in the Yeti System, near to Bestial. UNSC Battle-Group Antietam (22 warships) responded with defensive formation and with help from ODPs, they were able to take out small covenant fleet with minimal losses (four frigates and two destroyers were destroyed.) Then after that skirmish over Bestial was over, Covenant never bothered to counter-attack due to a intelligence/logistical ship in Covenant fleet was destroyed, unable to relay the transmission to them which it assumed for Covenant that colony was destroyed.

After war, this colony became a important value for UNSC to produce newer classes of warships such as UNSC Savior of the Damned, an prototype battle-cruiser and several other prototype-type class warships due to discovery of ultra rare exotic metal in several weeks after March 3rd, 2553.

Better pissed off then pissed on

Theta IV
Served as A Supply station for unsc also capitalized on technology research.
UNSC
War munitions. metals. chemicals.
Small covenant force attacked they were succesfully destroyed on both air and land at the cost of about 3/4 of unsc station on the planet. The Civilians were evacuated while the remaining military forces either escorted the civilians to earth or stayed behind to try and hold the planet from remaining covenant forces. 2 weeks later they were glassed by a fleet of covenant ships.

Name : New Sumara
Classification: Terrestail
Climate: Arid deset/river valley (Resembling Kandahar, [Afghanistan)
Neighboring cosmic bodies: Tigris and Euphretis moons
Length of day: 22.4 hours
Resources: Minerals and rich vegetation

Established by the UNSC in 2211, New Sumara's geography and political climate both resemble that of old-world Afghanistan. Insurgency is prevelant among colonists, and UNSC troopers were hard pressed to maintain order among the agrarian populace. It was after the death of several high ranking militiamen in 2231, did the colony see a decline in rebel activity.

In 2250, Covenant forces en route to an unknown location stumbled upon the colony, and promptly glassed the planet without fielding any premptive exploratory ground forces. Because of the small size of New Sumara, the colony suffered more than 90% casualty rate. A produce freighter carrying an evacuated portion of civilians was able to hide in the "shadow" of the Euphretis moon, until the Covenant battle group finally moved on.

In 2254, New Sumara was re-terraformed and reinhabited just after the fall of the Covenant.

Planet: Argent
Established by: UNSC
Status: Active, friendly
Moons: One: Cordo
Resources: Iron, Steel, and Copper
Length of Day: 16 Hours 24 Minutes 8 Seconds
Length of Year: 291 Days
Population: 41,845,291
Technology Tier: Tier 3
Status: Glassed in 2550

Planet was evacuated 2 days before hand as an evacuation drill in case of a Covenant attack, to their luck, they weren't around when the Covenant found her and once they returned they were at shock to see their home gone, but relieved to be alive.

UNSC forces stationed on the planet placed Shiva Nuclear warheads around the perimeter of the planet after all evacuation ships had left, once the Covenant made a jump in the system and glassed the abandoned colony, they were destroyed by the dozens of warheads, Of the 12 ships that came, only 2 made it out alive. The AI Catherine that was left to watch over the planet made use of her only SMAC station and gave the Covenant what they asked for before launching the Cole Protocol.

My colony is the prosperous one the Covenant never discover.

  • 06.20.2011 2:50 PM PDT

Name: New Stalingrad
Affiliation: Formerly Covenant, seized by rebels with stolen Forerunner technology.
Resources: Unlike most colonies, New Stalingrad benefits by selling Covy and Forerunner artifacts on the black market.
Status: Still strong. The UNSC and the Covenant both have abandoned this colony, as the insurrectionist's startling supply of alien weapons would decimate both forces. Recently, the insurrectionists have been starting to comply with the government's commands, but only because of the ending of the year long Human-Covenant war.

We Are The Meta.

Taken from the fan-fic I'm currently working on.

Planet: Terra
Crescent System.

Established by French Colony for commercial enterprise e.g. holidays, art, specialists (glassmakers), fishing, cruises and businesses headquarters for distribution.
Actually built and funded by ONI for the Forerunner artefact, "The Lighthouse". The ONI HQ, disguised as the hq of business "Interplanetary Office Needs", hides the artefact, due to it's size.

UNSC fortified but populace was mixed of outer and inner colony citizens. Roughly on the border between outer and inner colonies.

Capital city: New Calais.
Metropolitan/fishing port/cruise port.

Covenant scouts first found August 10th.
Victory over Covenant forces short-lived when reinforcements came August 11th.
Last evacuations on August 12 as additional Covenant forces arrive.
UNSC withdraw reinforcements to defend Reach. Tera to be used as bomb, since Covenant are believed to be redeploying at Reach, when more reinforcements come.
Reinforcements coming to Tera are after "The Lighthouse", a Forerunner artefact that has star charts of every installation, which also shows every human world. Covenant cease glassing to find the artefact, finally activated when the entrance has been found deep under ground.
ONI staff and a marine squad, activate the charges to blow the artefact, and the various nukes that decimate the Covenant fleet yet leave Terra uninhabitable.
Recon team watch from orbit on August 17th, awaiting response from ONI to investigate the other colonies in system.
