why do you think i said there was a specialist involved? the marines were operated on in order to support the spartan armor. in other words they wer upgraded. and yes i have never read the books. I actually just took what i have learned by reading posts like this and came up with the story.scynide wrote:I love this mod. Great job on it. You are really proving your self as an up comming master modder. But one question. Have you ever read all of the Halo books? This proves that you haven't or just did not care about this small detail.
In "Halo: The Fall of Reach" it told how the Spartans came to be and the testing of the MJOLNIR armor. It said it was originally tested by normal humans, but the suit enhanced movments so well and made the movements so fast that it crushed the human's bones. The first man in a MJOLNIR armor tried to move his arm and his arm broke because it was so fast and powerful. The man went into shock and died before they could get the armor off. The only reason why the Spartans can use the armor is because they have reinforced bones and stronger muscles. Lots of medical procedures were done on them to enhance their abilities. So no hell hound marine could use the MJOLNIR armor.RA1N THE ELITE wrote:You are a hell hound marine who was upgraded to a spartan due to exposure to the flood. In order to contain the disease the UNSC hired an expert in spartan technology to do the job. The suit itself will gradually stop the disease in it's tracks but until then you are the ultimate warrior. Plus the with the addition of the new standard special operations assault rifle, XM8, you are practically the devil himself.
P.S. At the end of "Halo: First Strike" there were 4 spartans that were still alive and on their way back to Earth. There was also no reason to believe that they did not make it. And 1 Spartan that had been druged and kidnapped by Doctor Hasely, the creator of the SPARTAN-II program. So you could just say the last team of Spartans were sent in. Yes, if you are wondering I am a VERY extreme Halo fan.

Most of the Spartans did not survive the body alterations. *cry* I don't believe that a fully grown marine would survive any alterations. The Spartans were only 13 or 14 when they were operated on. So this made it were they could adjust better. Nice story line, but I just wanted to fill a couple of holes. Sorry if I sounded like an @$$hole.
Are we cool?
