XBL: FTG Spartan
But you were dead a thousand times. Hopeless encounters successfully won. A man long dead, grafted to machines your builders did not understand. You follow the path, fitting in to an infinite pattern.
Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.
Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.
I know who you are.
You are Destiny.

Most likely but what if they were training on reach in a section of the planet that was glassed? Just a thought. I also read somewhere (the books) that chief mendez left around 2525 to train the enxt group of spartans and its 2552 and we still havent heard of them but the first batch (jonhs group) took only 8 years to train so why havent we heard of the spartan-III's? i dunno

Prolly out there somewhere on their own business, or the project could have been scrapped (doubtfully). Maybe Halo 2 will reveal the Spartan III's. Who knows, maybe they take care of the 'mop up' on Earth while you take the fight back to the Covenant. Or hell, maybe they are in the first wave on the assault on the Covenant world itself, they take out the weapons and enemies while you and your team go for the Prophet.

Only time will tell...

Cheers,

I think Mendez lied to John. Sort of a way to say good bye. So my best guess is there are no more Spartans. Heck there was hardly enough funding for the first Spartan class.

maybe none of them survived the augmentation, or were just mutilated like some of the II's, they had to go into tacticle command because they could no longer fight but wer still very combat wise and were used to plan assults and design weapons and stuff. accidents happen, not everyone can survive getting metal alloys grafted into there skeletons.i know i probubly couldnt

were the novels created by the bungie group? i mean ya they offer depth to the story and every thing but halo "the game" came out frst. im just wonderi if the authors took the story and went off on a track of their own and bungie just let them do it. if so, th books might be way out in left field as far as whats going to happen
