MC just left as REACH was getting glassed by the Covenant. What happens when a plent gets glassed everything dies. Another SPARTAN is floating in [Now Covenant controlled] Space around reach with a dwindling air supply..the other SPARTAN in the PoA cryo tubes is Linda, but she is medically dead. Wouldn't you think you were the last of your kind as well?


Umm...didn't we all just say that the books were not going to influence the game, and since everything there is from the books, then that would have little to no influence on the game

Umm...no, we definately didn't...the books and games come straight from the pre-existing Halo Bible..Look at everything Halo 2 had that was introduced to us in the books. If you have "missed" that popst, look in any one of these dumb threads stating there will be no more SPARTANs, and look at what I posted.

There really is no point debating this on any further. Shishka did not say "There is no Spartans in Halo 3".

Btw,think of it this way. As a lone Spartan look at you are able to accomplish. Now imagine if you had a squad of four Spartans with you. The game would be incredibly easy.

Look at the books, John couldn't take the Unyielding Hierophant over by himself, so he needed more SPARTANs to come with him. They all have different strengths...Linda was Sniping, Grace had their Heavy Weapons, etc. etc.

Who says they need to be together? They could be going for the same objective, or a different one..say, send Linda and Fred and Will to take out a Ship's Shield while you (and maybe Kelly or Johnson) go and plant a nuke in the control room. you wouln't see eachother, but it would remove the need t ogo out of your way for another objective, while keeping you up to date with happenings in Cutscenes.


They could even be on Coral taking the Forerunner Artifact talked about in the Conversations from the Universe...it could be the power source when the Ark on Earth tries to communicate, it gets to the Coral facility, and gets a boost in power so it can make it all the way to the Halos.

That would be an important thing to protect from the Covenant, no? That could also mean the SPARTAN IIIs are being trained there.

My original thread in the main forums is here, please contribute there as well so it will stay alive =D


So...everyone with the Halo 2 strategy guide, go through to the back of the book till you reach the "Extras" Section. Look at the two-page picture of the Chief looking out of the Pelican in outerspace in upgraded MJOLNIR armor...Look at the Pelican in the back.

8 Figures are jumping out into Space, but are these regular ODSTs? ODSTs jump in Drop pods. Also, Marines don't wear armor similar to the MJOLNIR that would protect them from entering the Earth's atmosphere...do they?

Here is the image:

Does anyone recall the number of SPARTANs alive?

1. John
2. Linda
3. Kelly
4. Fred
5. Will
6. Cassandra (From the Halo 2 extra booklet)
7. unnamed, too far to be recalled to the Front Lines
8. unnamed, too far to be recalled to the Front Lines
9. unnamed, too far to be recalled to the Front Lines
10. James, MIA in UNSC controlled space during REACH invasion


That makes 10...Master Chief is in the front, and there are 9 in the back...what do you guys think?

Yeah the best part about the books is the marines, not MC. hes more fun in the game. and the books only show some things not all so its not a good reference to what is going to happen just what has and how. like Johnsen and the Arbiter.
