That's why at the end of Halo 2 and into Halo 3 they received armor. In Halo wars however set well before the Halo C.E. They can be upgraded, this however is hardly considered a flexible view in this cannon.

Oh. so it's between the events of halo 2 and halo 3 not during the events of halo 2 as I thought.

Is Halo: Reach during or before Halo C.E.?

If you remember that the trailer/demo as well, show a slipstream over New Mombasa in Halo 2. ODST takes place at least a day or so after that in Halo 2 and Halo 3 is a several months after Master Chief fall back to Earth as seen in the first cinematic in Halo 3.

Reach (also refereed to in the Halo novel The Fall of Reach) Is before Halo C.E. most likely up to. That means that you will see 200 or so Spartans falling in combat beside you.

I liked the books, though I never read some of them. I besides spending my time researching plots I research crossovers. The best know one being Bungie's Halos and Marathons, since they both have colliding stories
