Sorry, but I just had to jump on the "I Gots a theroy! LOL!" band wagon....

(Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I searched and couldn't find another topic, so bleh if this is a clone topic)

I was being bored at work today, as usual, and a thought hit me. I was thinking about how many people wanted to see Spartans in H3, and then I thought to myself "Hmm... what about the Spartan I's?"

Anyone who has followed the books and/or listened to the ilovebees episodes will know that MC is part of the second "generation" of Spartans, the Spratan II's. The first generation, Spartan I's are currently living as civilians.

Wouldn't it be badass to be able to team up with the origional Spartan soldiers? I think it would be sweeter than sweet if you could fight alongside Janicary James, from the ilovebees episodes.

Anybody agree?

I agree with your notion with fighting along with Spartan I(s). After all, who better to live through an all-out ‘world ending’ battle?

Answer: The Spartan I(s)!

Exactally. If any civilians have the kick-assery to be able to survive, it's the Spartans.

I'd really like to see how the ILB characters look like, according to Bungie.

Yes, but they wouldn't die of old age, they're basically superhumans. ILB proves that they're alive, ya know. Although they are getting old, they're still operating like they're young.

Well, The Spartan I(s) does have children, and they were preparing for the Covi assault (At least in ILovebees.com story line). So they will have a comestible fire power. Which include some assault rifles.
