If we were to put the Canon of both The Fall of Reach and Halo: Reach, we would know that Reach was always defended by a fleet of about 100 UNSC Ships of various types. When the Covenant Scout Fleet came, which consisted of a Super Carrier and a few Corvettes, where was the Fleet that was supposed to defend Reach?
Sure we can say that the fleet bypassed all of Reach's defenses but once Long Night of Solace destroyed the Grafton, their scout fleet was pretty much exposed. What of the Frigates? Were they too busy destroying the spires to handle the Super Carrier?
Once the Grafton was gone, the Long Night of Solace returned to space, pretty far from the looks of it from the view of Anchor 9. Now at this point, it was known that the orbital defenses were under attack, but from what? The Corvettes? Not enough to handle 100 ships. By orbital defense, that could include the ships that defend her.
Please help me out here guys in clearing this up.
