Eras and Features=

ORION
The ORION Era (2490-2517) ''covers the end of the 25th Century and the start of the 26th. It is a time of great change for mankind as the threat of rebellion looms overhead, and largely covers the exploits of the men and women of Project: ORION from their first successful operations to the tragedies and failures that ended it, eventually leading up to the inception of the SPARTAN-II Program and the offshoot that gave this universe its name.''

Covenant
A major part of the Sigmaverse, the Covenant Era (2517-2555) ''covers nearly forty years, largely focusing on the devastating Human-Covenant War and the battles that occurred during this period. As most of Halo canon takes place here, Sigmaverse characters will take part in a number of well-known events, from the Harvest Campaign to the Battle of Earth. This era also has the biggest focus on the original Sigma Team, a group of nine SPARTAN-II's who fought to defend humanity during this conflict.''

Rebellion
Following a timeline divergence away from mainstream Halo canon, the Rebellion Era (2556-2600) ''is the largest period of history in the Sigmaverse and covers the numerous conflicts following the Human-Covenant War that eventually lead into a Civil War for mankind. This era sees the rise of a number of heroes and villains, from the SPARTAN-IV supersoldiers to the remnants of the old Insurrection trying to find their place in the war and those just trying to survive.''

Downfall
In the aftermath of a second massive war, the Downfall Era (2600 Onwards) ''is the final section of the Sigmaverse that takes place at the start of the 27th Century and follows the lives of the few remaining Spartans from the last few wars as loyalties are questioned and a new threat emerges after years of hiding. The divisive UNSC now faces a multitude of threats and attempts to stay together through yet another crisis that threatens its very existence.''
