Subject: Fall of Reach or First Strike?

Could someone link me to an article or something saying that it takes place during the Fall of Reach, and not after during Spartan 117's return during First Strike?

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME GROUP INVITATIONS

The Halo REACH Script (post thoughts in thread)

Writing Lead of Whisper Studios. Check out Heron!

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

If Sierra-259 is a Spartan (as he implies he is by saying "Spartans on the ground. We're not going anywhere") and this game occurs during the battle of Reach, we will see elements from both novels.

From TFoR -- The Covenant arriving at Reach, Keyes speaking with the Master Chief, the Chief splitting his 30 Spartans up into two teams, Red and Blue

From First Strike -- Red Team leaves the PoA and falls to the surface of Reach, they move to the orbital defense generators, Fred splits his team up into four splinter teams, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta. S-259 can only be a member of Beta, unless we are to play as a virtually crippled Spartan (Delta Team)

From here, the story will be new as we do not learn the fate of Team Beta in the novels, and S-259 is a "new" character.
