Excuse my ignorance, but I have some Halo cannon questions.
Note: I'll re-post this in the Reach thread if needed. It's mostly multiplayer talk over there.
If I remember correctly from "The Fall of Reach" book, Master Chief was testing out his new power armor when he first got word that Reach was under attack.
George was a Spartan II. We all know from the part from the Halo: Reach game when Halsey asks George what he did to her armor, that Halsey must have given George that very armor sometime in the past when he was still under Halsey.
My question is: Why did it take so long for Master Chief and the rest of the Spartans to get their power armor, when George had his for quite a while? Is this just another cannon breaker from Reach?

I'm sorry, I'm sticking to my guns on this. If Mark V is just a shielded Mark IV Chassis then it should have been a variant, not a successor system. 25 years of service with the Mark IV and 4 months of deployment with the Mark V. Shielding should have been introduced years earlier than it was. You can't spend 25 years trying to crack personal shields, then claim to produce a superior system in 4 months. It doesn't make sense to me, although I have this creeping feeling that this particular issue accurately parallels real world Military R&D. [Edited on 09.09.2012 12:07 AM PDT]
