The original BADFINGER! (the second)

I know there are already topics like this well, i dont care to resurrect some old crap

I was thinking, since everyone is predicting the the story is likely revolve around Red Team lead by FRED 104, which i dont doubt as a possible story idea. Though i strongly believe that Master Chief is the Spartan standing in the middle of the banner.

Here me out, before you shoot my idea down:

The story has to clearly revolve around Reach, right? so... i was thinking it will start off with a cinematic about the SPARTAN-II project and the candidates, and showing how they eventually came to be and so on. The first mission would start with the Master Chief, Linda and James on their Space op to destroy the NAV database on the 'Circumference', where you would play as MC while someone else can play as Linda, not james because he gets deaded (i know it was never confirmed blah blah blah, i read the books i know all about it).

Once that mission is done it would pick up with Red Team heading toward Reach in the Pelican, where it would probably cover atleast the next 3 missions. With them landing (or crashing which ever you prefer) and getting to the MAC power complex. Then it would split up into the four groups:
Team Alpha - Fred, Kelly and Joshua
Team Beta - Red 20 through Red 4 (no names for Spartans, sorry)
Team Delta - wounded Spartans and the 4 remaining marines(got names for marines but not Spartans, sorry)
Team Gamma - Red 21, 22 and 23 (no names for Spartans, sorry)

Which ever way that goes, and when done it will then cut to Master Chief 3 weeks later aboard the Long-Sword escaping the blast from the Halo he just destroyed, with him regrouping with Johnson and the other marines. Most of this would be a cinematic, until they board the Covenant vessel, then the level would start.

Dont wanna go into too much more detail cause kinda spoiling the story for those who haven't read the books.
But the way i see it is, its called Halo Reach, not Fall of Reach so it could combine the events in both First Strike and Fall of Reach. Swapping between characters on most missions.

Gotta remember just because it says Reach in the title doesnt mean it will all be based on Reach, and a game without the big MC, come on mate......... MC is HALO.

So yeah what ya think?

feel free to add ideas
