My Grandfather was a Desert Ranger, my Father was a Veteran Ranger in the NCR. My father was killed by Caesar's Legion and they took my Brother. It's now my responsibility to uphold the mantle of the Rangers and avenge my Father and find my Brother.

Hey there people of the interwebz! I'm bored so I've decided to write a fan fic! That's where you come in and HELP, me. I have a question. Should I have the group of Spartan III's have different helmet/armor variants or the same armor?

Seems like a very minor detail. Choose what best fits the plot environment that the S-IIIs inhabit.

Well actually I have another question but I don't know how to word it correctly....I'll try. You know how in The Fall of Reach or the other Halo books, there's the thing at the top of the Chapter that says "Reach Eridanus system" or whatever? I was going to do something like that. But I don't know how to write it in. Make sense?

Reach being the Planet, and Eridanus being the Solar System I believe.

Never mind it's something like this: "Location: Training Grounds outside of Camp Currahee, Planet Onyx, Zeta Doradus System
Time: 0834 hours, Oct. 24th 2552 (Military Calendar)"

Only when no Human brick is left atop another, shall we be satisfied with your destruction.

Just copy the format they use in the novels, it's just a little intro header to help you keep track of things.

This is what I used for a little fan fic I'm making about Alpha Company (the first chapter deals with them being augmented)

0600 HOURS, DECEMBER 18, 2536 (MILITARY CALENDAR) \ SECTOR K-009, ABOARD UNSC HOPEFUL \ MEDICAL BAY

It follows the setting used by the books (or at least the older print of TFoR).
