As a long time Halo fan and reader of many of the novels, I became bored of usual activities and set out to create a unique style of book.

In the Halo universe, many things are explored by the games and books. Unfortunately it is mostly Spartans and ODSTs.
A side I have not personally heard of or read is the view of a marine.

I have begun work on a novel based on a medic marine in a UNSC squad that takes place on Delta halo and various locations on Earth.

The reason I post this is to ask others who are maybe more educated in the fiction of Halo to help me. I was wondering if the Covenant invaded the entire Earth or just New Mombassa.
I am interested in a forested location and those are few and far between in warmer climates such as NM.

I am aware that this is just a small, unimportant piece of work of a single fan, but I go for accuracy.

I haven't played Halo 3 for a while but I do remember Keyes saying that the Covenant focused most of their activities in New Mombasa.

Ah, alright. I guess I will have to focus the story in a different area then.
Also I guess I will have to replay some levels to get the story perfect!

I suppose there is some wiggle room. Just because they focused their main assault in New Mombasa doesn't mean there weren't stragglers.
If memory serves Red team battled brutes on the sea floor.

That is true, I guess I will try to carry the story in that direction.

Yes, most of the Covenenant focused on East Africa, however, there was a couple of ships that landed in a city in North America, looking for the Key of Osanalan (non-existant), but i forget the name of the city.
