Some can come away from reading "War and Peace" thinking it a simple adventure story, while others can read the ingredients on a gum wrapper and unlock the secrets of the universe.

In ghost of Onyx the "STARS" is featured as a small baseball sized intelligence satellite. STARS or Stealth Tactical Aerial Reconnaissance Satellite, are deployed by ONI in Ghost of Onyx. ODST features a 3D ma of the city, I think Reach should take it one step forward. When having an open view of the sky you could attach a secure link to the satellite. It would allow you to view the entire map from the sky, like Predator. It could also have certain features, such as infrared (there going to wish they didn't have all that plasma now), or night vision. You could also use it to make contact with isolated squads throughout the maps, giving them orders.

Lets say for a particular mission, there are 5 scattered platoons of infantry and scorpions. Use the satellite to establish communications, then order those platoons to regroup at any location.

So it would be a FPS strategy then?

In a sense, unless they decide to take out the communications thing.
