Line 214: Line 214:
In the gym confrontation, the attacking group is made up of three ODSTs instead of four, the Sergeant never appears and John is only interrupted when Mendez orders him at ease. John is clearly bothered with having to injure and kill fellow soldiers while defending himself for a test, saying that the men were "wasted, not spent", and it's stated that he continued to be bothered by the incident even though it was accidental. In the novel, John has 'an odd feeling in the pit of his stomach', and felt 'strangely sorry' for the men he had killed. However, after reflecting on being told that his priorities were to follow orders and keep himself and his team safe, he concluded that he knew his duty and it's all he had to focus on, and so did not give the incident another thought.

During the [[Battle of Chi Ceti]], the Spartans use a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]] taken from one of the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}'s Pelicans to destroy the ''[[Unrelenting]]''. In the novel, they use warheads from [[Anvil-II air-to-surface missile|Anvil II]] missiles while the Pelicans did not carry nuclear weapons. Additionally, the ''Unrelenting'' is depicted as a {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}} being crewed by [[Sangheili]], [[Kig-Yar]], and [[Unggoy]] while the novel shows it as being around a third the size of the ''Commonwealth'', a {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}}, and only crewed by [[Kig-Yar]]. As well, the ''Commonwealth'' itself is depicted as a {{Class|Charon|light frigate}} instead of the canonical ''Paris'' class.

The tree-carving scene does not take place in the book, rather the children head directly to a single rendezvous together.
