Talk:Operation: KALEIDOSCOPE

Untitled
FYI, the minor edit I made to this page on 26 April 2007 at 2:41AM (EST) involved the year of Operation: KALEIDOSCOPE, which was listed (erroneously) as 2505. The date/time stamp on the images of the spotter/shooter team that made the kill clearly reads '2502:03:13:14:50:23:09'. Just wanted to make sure all the T's were dotted and the I's crossed.

Er...yeah, you know what I mean. =D

If I'm not mistaken, I would have taken the "sniper rifle" as a machine gun, because there were chains (or a belt strap) attached to it and no one really holds a sniper like that. (I think) Plus, a sniper cannot inflict that much damage on the jeep. --B le mo http://www.wikia.com/skins/common/progress-wheel.gif TALK • CONTRIBUTIONS • ARMORY 13:19, 5 August 2007 (UTC)


 * The box-like device on the image's right is a portable generator as seen in Halo 2, notably in the armory on Cairo Station. That's one of the cables. The other cable coming off the Stanchion is going to the laptop of Johnson's spotter for the operation, also on Sniper Team A. -ScaleMaster117 (talk) 14:13, 13 April 2014 (EDT)

Map of Harvest
Does anyone know if the picture in the background of the page is some kind of grid or map of Harvest? -- UNSC Trooper File:unsctrooper_small.jpg|14px]] TalkMy Work 19:59, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Contact Harvest
Page 64 of CH seems to refer to this event: "He'd only stayed on Harvest long enough to acquire his target, plan the hit, and reduce the number of corrupt CA officials by one. It was his graduation mission from Navy Special Warfare (NavSpecWar) sniper-school. And he'd passed with flying colors." --68.44.252.167 02:16, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Other operatives
I noticed that on the main ORION in "KALEIDOSCOPE and deactivation" section that there were apparently other ORION soldiers with their own assignments for KALEIDOSCOPE: "Many ORION supersoldiers were deployed to take down insurrectionist strongholds...". I don't know how true this is, as I haven't read any of the material that uses the SPARTAN-I stuff except Contact Harvest, but I would like to know if 1. there were other operatives, and 2. if there were, if that information should be added to this page as well.--Aspari (talk) 00:25, 6 February 2014 (EST)

Johnson's final exam
I fail to see how this operation is tied to Johnson's final exam at NavSpecWar Sniper School. Can someone clarify?  ΩPer Mare,  ΔPer Terras , ΨPer Constellatum 13:33, 13 April 2014 (EDT)


 * The discussion comment two spots above here answers your question. -ScaleMaster117 (talk) 14:13, 13 April 2014 (EDT)
 * Even if KALEIDOSCOPE and the exam where both sniping missions, it doesn't mean they were the same mission. Plus, I don't see where in the KALEIDOSCOPE pic of the Graphic Novel it is said that Ander was a corrupt CA, as said in Contact Harvest.   ΩPer Mare,  ΔPer Terras , ΨPer Constellatum 15:05, 13 April 2014 (EDT)
 * I don't have any page numbers handy, but I'm pretty sure that in Contact Harvest Johnson mentions he had been to Harvest only once before the events of the book and that his sole visit was the assassination mission, which kind of narrows it down. --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 15:11, 13 April 2014 (EDT)
 * That was the exact piece missing to me to understand. Thank you.   ΩPer Mare,  ΔPer Terras , ΨPer Constellatum 15:13, 13 April 2014 (EDT)
