A chariot for Spartans īy 2552, it was obvious to the UNSC that the war could not be ended with conventional military action. Pillar of Autumn was pulled from long-term storage and was refitted in 2550 to serve as an emergency support ship in a conflict near Zeta Doradus. The cruiser was decommissioned with the remaining Halcyon-class light cruisers, but was reactivated as the war worsened. Later in the battle, at the request of Spirit of Fire, Pillar of Autumn contributed several M145D Rhinos to the ground battle, enabling Spirit of Fire's forces to take down a Covenant energy shield. Upon the arrival of the UNSC Spirit of Fire, the smart AI Serina reported on these events to Captain James Cutter. In the battle between the UNSC and Covenant forces, Pillar of Autumn was badly damaged along with Armstrong while Texas and Belfast were destroyed. Along with the other three ships, Pillar of Autumn destroyed the battlecruiser designated CCS-U321 after catching it with its shields down, but the battlecruiser designated CCS-U624 was able to make it to the surface of Arcadia. Human-Covenant War Main article: Battle for Arcadiaĭuring the Battle for Arcadia in February 2531, Pillar of Autumn engaged two Ket-pattern battlecruisers alongside the UNSC Belfast, UNSC Texas and UNSC Armstrong.

The ship's sole remaining combat-effective SPARTAN-II, John-117, was forced to destabilize the Autumn's fusion reactor, destroying both the ship and the ringworld, to prevent the Installation from being fired. Keyes crash-landed the ship on the installation where the surviving crew continued the battle against the Covenant, and later, the Flood. There it was engaged by a Covenant fleet guarding Installation 04. The cruiser was guided to the Soell system by the smart AI Cortana. The operation was forestalled by the Covenant assault on Reach the cruiser carried some of the few UNSC survivors and fled the system having lost most of its intended SPARTAN-II passengers. Captain Jacob Keyes was placed in command. Prior to the Fall of Reach Pillar of Autumn was selected to support Operation: RED FLAG, a SPARTAN-II mission to capture Covenant leaders. The ship's motto is Ad Arcendam Hostium ( To Repel the Enemy). It was the sister ship of UNSC Dawn Under Heaven and UNSC Toulouse. It was informally referred to as the Autumn, and, in some cases, the Pillar. UNSC Pillar of Autumn, ( hull classification symbol C-709), was a Halcyon-class light cruiser in the UNSC Navy.
