If you've read the books, you'dknow that this is probably spanning between when all spartans are on reach, to when MC destroys installation 004

No offence but, every word of that is wrong.

Master Chief escaped Reach just as it was being glassed. By the time the Chief had discovered the first Halo ring aboard the Pillar of Autumn, Reach was all but destroyed.

wrong they havent found the ring yet. reach falls before captain keyes and the chief find the ring.

but its going to be an epic battle were the chiefs squad that he sent down to reach to defend the orbital mac gun generators.

also the spartans did survive well most of them because after the master chief was done on halo he returned to reach and saved his fellow spartans

Hello! I'm a male!

If you read the book. Halo: The Fall of Reach I'm sure everything would make more sense. Reach is near the beginning of the halo storyline. It's like a few days after the covenant destroy a few planets and only the spartan 117 (the master chief) makes it off the planet alive ().() all the other Spartans die. Thus the reason they make the Spartan II's they were to be a cheaper and faster way of making Spartans because the spartan I's were expensive and took to long for them to keep up for the war against the covenant. Funny you'd think that since we were in a losing war against aliens we'd drop the prices of stuff to save ourselves from the thing trying to make us go extinct but guess not. So yea read the book and I'm sure you'll understand everything about it a bit more.

After they escape reach they end up finding the ring when they come out of slip space.

A few descrepencies, firstly the Spartan IIIs were created as a cheaper alternative to the Spartan IIs, the Spartan I project (or project ORION) was just a test and is thought to have included Sgt Johnson and all volunteers from the marine corp/ODST.

Second, the other Spartans don't just die, some do, but Fred, Kelly, Will, Linda (sort of), Li etc. make it off alive with chief during first strike.

So read first strike too.

Read them all actually. They're all good (but The Flood < the rest)

( this is for somthing PMR NYM said earlyer )

im sorry but your wrong about the spartan IIs. the spartan II project was made for the rebelion and it was expensive as hell the spartan I program dident meet what was required for the rebelion so they disbanded it and formed advanced squads such as avery johnson if you have read contact harvest you already know what the rest of the spartan Is are doing. i forget who said it but a commander or high ranking official said they could build a fleet with the cash Dr. halsey is spending, john 117 linda 058 and so on are spartan IIs and there are still a few besides john they get stuck in a shield world and the spartan IIIs are the cheap ones that were made for the covenant war. i may have a few things wrong but i think i got most of it right if you want to correct me and please do i wont be looking at this blog for some time so email me and tell me what i was wrong about at "spartan_0082@yahoo.com"

i'm surprised that people are missing so much out of the story from Fall of Reach.

the events on reach spans over about 35 years... Starting from when the Spartan II's are kids, to the events in first strike.

Evidently theyre going to show near the end with Reach being glassed. Since the trailer specifies that we're going to see "the end" first, that indicates that the glassing of reach will be the "end" of the game. What could be played however might start from when the Spartans are six years old in 2517 to 2552. The truth is we have no idea. From what I'm looking at the spartans in the picture appear to be the ones from the book. On the far right, Linda, the sniper specialist, Will, who was always efficient with hand to hand, John in the middle, Kelly on the right, who was the fastest spartan, and on the far right i'm unsure, i can't remember the heavy weapons spartan specialist from the books.

I could be completely wrong, but these are established characters in the books, and it seems to be taking the story from the books, so why not?

If you are not friendly, you will soon explode

What i was thinking that just sparked an idea from me is, Mabye we start from the "end" of reach, and we work through the game as the other spartans that survived in the camp, I know im not very desprictive on this, but it seems like it could make sence. And we must " begin something" because i just dont trust bungie's wordplay on this one, there always very tricky...I dunnu, just a thought
