so i'm coming in on page 101 of this thing. so maybe this has already been discussed...maybe not could this have anything to do with the halo 3 diorama that was released before the game came out? it never made a whole lot of sense to me after playing through the campaign as to why it was there. (i must admit, i'm not much into the halo books, so maybe that's where my answer was). all i know is that i really wanted to play in that battle, and was kind of disappointed when i didn't get to.
