Just came across a thread posted by Deidg Nactal that had dropped a few pages but he brought up a very good point. All of those armor variations. Who is to say that they haven't been applied to this game and those silhouettes are the spartans in different armor types. Just food for thought

i don't know if anyone noticed, but the spartans in the pic resemble those described in the novel. I believe bungie will be utilizing more of the elements from the books this time around. If you look at the spartans in the picture they resemble some of the more important characters in the fall of reach. starting from the left I believe that spartan is sam (he was the biggest of the group), the slender one would be kelly (the fastest of them all), of course the master chief with his sig ar in the middle, fred with his knife second from the right, and finally linda with her sniper rifle. feel free to bash me.

Getting to command other spartans would be kick-ass. And no bashing, I think you could be on to something, If it is not Sam though because he died, I don't know who it would be that would be that much taller than Chief. I have read all the books and hope that you are right.

Well said. I completely agree with you on your assumption with the four characters from right to left. However, Sam died before Reach even occurred...so I'm not sure if the spartan on the left is Sam. But like I said...I think you nailed it.

However, we don't know if the game will take place primarily on Reach. It could also include missions before Reach...or even the one in which Sam died. Who knows.

Sam was dead WAYYYY before the battle for Reach.

yeah he was. That's the only thing I don't know, but I can see how it can be Kelly, MC, Fred because right before Reach it even mentioned in the book that he was twirling his combat knife to averted eyes by the crewmen when the ship turned around and headed for Reach. Also, it has to be Linda. No one else was shown to be so prominent with the weapon as her.
