Epsilon Eridani Campaign

The Epsilon Eridani Campaign was one of the largest and bloodiest engagements of the entire Human-Covenant War. The losses sustained by both sides during the campaign were significantly larger than any previous engagement. The closest campaign in terms of severity of casualties in personnel and ships was the five year campaign at Harvest. Of all subsequent battles of the Human-Covenant War, only the Sol Campaign is potentially equatable in regards to losses of ships, equipment, and personnel. It was arguably the largest conventional engagement of the war, seeing massive ground and space forces square off on and above no less than four human colonies simultaneously.Of the five colonized planets of the Epsilon Eridani system, only four were attacked by organized Covenant forces: Circumstance, Tantalus, Tribute, and Reach. The fifth planet and least settled, Beta Gabriel, was assaulted by a small contingent of Covenant soldiers who were destroyed by Human forces after massacring the colonial populace; however, these troops were deserters who fled from one of the many space battles near Reach.
