As you can probably tell from my signature, SPARTAN-043, Will, is my favorite Spartan-II because he shares my name and if I remember correctly is known as the strongest and most adept warrior in the human race, but John is still luckier. I have no idea what the hell Halsey is doing with Kelly, though. It would seem the UNSC scientists have been -blam!-s enough to the Spartans, and now this? I hate those folks!
Anyways, I think the reason that 3 Spartan-IIs were left alive at the end of First Strike was because Halo 2 will have 4-player co-op, and this is the perfect explanation. I really don't want to see tactical squad combat in Halo 2, at least nothing more complex than the Marines that followed you around in Halo. It's just not that kind of game, and it would mess with the flow of the gameplay if there was a command interface or you had mission-critical guys following you around (remember Truth and Reconciliation on Legendary?).
