Operation: WOLVEN STORM

"Today we embark on the greatest military expedition in human history. Each of you has sworn an oath to protect humanity, and each of our worlds, and today that oath will be fulfilled. As I speak, the fleet speeds to our destination, ready to liberate it from our enemy’s claws. But it’s not just humanity. Sangheili, Jiralhanae, Kig-Yar, Lekgolo, Unggoy, and Huragok, all march alongside us. That’s because our enemy is not a race of strange aliens, some twisted religion, or a distant Overlord. Our enemy is hate. Our enemy is fear. Our enemy is oppression and tyranny. We will strike a blow to this enemy so fierce, their descendants will still flinch when they hear our names. The eyes of the galaxy are going to be upon us. We will deliver to them nothing short of total victory, and if we fail, the first round in Valhalla is on me. God speed."

- Fleet Wide broadcast by Admiral of the Navy Galia Meir shortly after departure

The largest military deployment to date, Operation: WOLVEN STORM was a massive military operation aimed at retaking the vital colony of Olympia, and relieving the Midgard Pocket. With representative forces from almost every major empire in the galaxy involved in the conflict. Each faction threw in significant resources, and many 'wonder weapons' of the Confederacy were damaged or destroyed. The loss of life on each side was also monumental, including a significant civilian death toll, and damage to the infrastructure of Olympia. Concurrent operations pulled enemy personnel and resources into other conflict zones, allowing the Alliance to secure victory.

This was followed by subsequent victories, including the major Wolfsbane offensive, Liberation of Te, the Freehold border war, and the battle of Hypatopol. The momentum of the war shifted in favour of the Alliance after this point, and continued for much of the war. Ultimately, the battle ended in an Alliance victory, and the consequent victory opened up the new Frontier Theatre.
