I stopped reading when you said:
"You will not play as the Master Chief. How do I know this? Easy. While the events that took place on the surface of Reach were unfolding, the Master Chief was busy destroying the First Halo. Another thing you would already know if you had read the books."
Are you kidding me?
Not only did you not specify the time NOR the specific events in which you're trying to get at to defend your position, most people would be safe in assuming that when you refer to "the events that took place on the surface of Reach..." that you would be insinuating the first battle of Reach, or the fall of Reach.
Pure and simple, this is a PREQUEL to the HALO TRILOGY. Therefore it is well speculated (far more than your "facts"), that this game will chronicle the events that first took place on Reach. And at this time, no one even knew the Rings existed, and the Chief only reached the first Ring (Installation 04) in Halo: Combat Evolved.
So okay, what you're trying to say, is that this game involves and chronicles the EXACT same timeline as Halo: Combat Evolved, but simply in another place? When Reach had already been destroyed by a Covenant fleet?
I don't even think you know what you're talking about.
Reach was only partialy glassed by the Covenant. A large forrested area over the ONI Castle facility was left untouched and thousands of Covenant troops landed there and began digging to get ot the Forerunner artifact that was under the Castle. The whole time the Covenant were on the surface of Reach digging to get the Artifact they were being attacked by the remaining spartans that were initialy sent to the surface of Reach to protect the reactors that powered the orbital defense MAC platforms. While all of that was happening MC was at the first Halo. Did you even read the books???? Obviously you didn't or I wouldn't have to type all this out....
While MC was at the first Halo a group of Spartans were fighting to keep a Forerunner artifact away from the Covenant. After MC destroys the first Halo he links up with some survivers and they make their way back to Reach and save the survivers on the surface. So back to my original point. Halo Reach will be about the events that took place on the surface of Reach. MC was at the first Halo for almost the entire time the Spartans and a few others were on Reach fighting the Covenant. You will not play as Master Chief....
