well as you know, john-117, linda and james were the only spartans in the blue team. why do you think so many were in the red team, and so few were in the blue team? maybe the blue team had specials jobs of great significance? im not too sure, but would like to know your thoughts!

Because for the spartans more numbers would not make the mission all that much easier.

Read about my gaming here.

I'm sure it says why in the books, which you got it from, and, tactics and less chance to be detected and less chance of mroe getting killed, as all the spartans are needed

I am...whimsical today.

Many Spartans were needed to repel the Covenant forced ground side. A team made up 4 Spartans would not have been that much more effective than a team of 3.

(And also to make it believable that John was the only one able to fight on Halo)

Read the freakin books dude. The smaller team was set to invade a covenant ship, if you have too many spartans its not exactly a stealth operation. The larger group of spartans was set to defend Reach from Covenant ground invaders.

i cant get my hands on the books :( are they good?

Yes, they are extremely good. There is no reason why you can't get your hands on them. You can get them at a library or buy them for a measly $6 each at the book store. How did you even know that there was a smaller team of spartans and a larger team if you havent read the books?
