"Be Prepared and Semper Fi do or die"

Hopefully Halo: Fall of Reach(the book), it tells us about how the spartans came to be, their creator, and The Human-Covent war up to the fall of the human planet Reach the UNSC strongest military base besides earth.

Well if you want a game timeline here it is:

Halo wars - Halo Reach - Halo CE - Halo 2 - Halo 3 ODST then 3

If your wondering why halo wars is first there evidence right in the game.

THE SPARTANS ARE THERE if it were after reach no spartans would be associated with the game.

I think wars happens DURING the book. Before the book, there are no spartan IIs YET. After the book, there are only about 3.

True but are you forgeting that there are 3 spartan programs not just the spartan 2 program.

They never stated that they were spartan 1,2 or 3.

They can be part of any program. Oh ya forgot if there were no spartans before reach then explain the MJOLNIR mark 1-4!!!!

They were never worn by marines nor ODST due to augmentation

This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. We are eternal.
All this pain is an illusion.

Most likely it will be during the events of Halo: Fall of Reach, but will focus on an entirely different group of Spartan-II's.

No one knows exactly what the game is about except Bungie. Anything said on the forums is merely conjecture and should be taken lightly.

The only thing that actually is known for certain is that the game is based around the ultimate fate of the planet Reach.

I agree all speculations that anybody and I make are just a guess and should be disreguarded except for statments that show a timeline or Halo CE. I disagree on that only bungie knows. I have proof that people who read the novel Fall of Reach knows some backround story or most of the game. The proof is the novel The Flood which corresponds to Halo Combat Evolved

Go read Fall of Reach- you'll have time b4 the game comes out. You wont be dissapointed.

Reach was like this big military planet like thing and it was kind of like the human's biggest defense or something like that. It was thought to be impossible to destroy. But then the covenant came, got past the frigates and MAC guns guarding the planets or something, then landed a whole bunch of covenant on the planet, of which the Spartans were unable to defeat, and I think all of them died out except for Master Chief. So then human kind was like "awww.... crap." cuz now it's like a giant hole has been punched into their defense.

Man, honestly, have NONE of you read the book, "The Fall of Reach"? Wow lol. Even just based on what I know, I would assume that the game will begin at somewhere around the middle of the book. After John-117's inception as a Spartan II soldier, and at some point after his training and around the time Reach is suddenly invaded. But Bungie, I really hope that you don't mess this up and that the game is nothing like the trailer, seeing as how if you read the book the Covenant attack Reach unexpectedly and there is a huge space battle between the UNSC forces with fighters, frigates and the orbiatal M.A.C guns surrounding Reach, and it appears that the humans actually turn the tide of the battle, but the Covenant quietly drop down hundreds if not thousands of dropships beneath Reach's atmosphere while the battle still rages in space. So it's nothing at all like the trailer, where the humans don't even half expect an attack. There IS an attack going already when the Covenant get soldiers already on the ground. By the way, all of the Spartans except for one, Master Chief supposedly "die" during this attack as one squad (half of the spartans) are sent to defend Reach on the ground, and the other half is sent to maintain control of a satellite orbiting Reach. Master Chief appears to be the only one to have escaped, but that is a different story. Anyways yeah, basically I just hope Bungie doesn't mess up the whole storyline and completely change what has already been written in the books..
