Halo: Last Stand
The year is 2552
Humanity is at war with the alien alliance known as "The Covenant".
We are losing.
The Covenant have burned our worlds, killing billions in their genocidal campaign.
Earth is our last bastion - a carefully guarded secret.
But not anymore.
A Covenant carrier has breached Earth's defenses and attacked the African mega-city, "New Mombasa".
Initial reports confirm major damage and heavy civilian casualties.
You and your platoon were deployed in New Mombasa to fight back the Covenant ground forces.
You are nothing special, you aren't government funded super soldiers, you're Marines.
And we're counting on you, all of, to save our very species from certain extinction.
You may not make it, we may not make it, but it's now more than ever where you sacrifice is needed.

You are a member of 2nd platoon, Alpha Company, 3rd Battalion, 101st Marine Division. Alpha company was stationed in New Mombasa prior to the covenant invasion. There is no Alpha company left. Everyone except 2nd platoon has been killed during the initial stage of the invasion. Your platoon is cut off, struggling to regroup with UNSC forces, but between you and friendly territory stands an army of Covenant forces. The only thing keeping you connected to battalion HQ was destroyed. Now, more than ever, does humanity require it's soldiers to be brave, and stand in the face of the enemy that has destroyed and taken so much.
Long story short, most of your company was destroyed, and you're stuck in the middle of New Mombasa, where everyone is ferociously fighting off the Covenant. Your CO (Yours truly) is trying to regroup with the nearest friendly unit. There will be heavy resistance, and casualties, don't expect your character to survive (You're always welcome to make another). The story will follow 2nd platoons fight, from the evacuation of New Mombasa to Voi.
