*Several details and characters in the novel, originally planned to be included by Troy Denning, were changed at 343 Industries' request. For one, Denning originally planned to include twenty Spartan-IIs, but was told by 343 Industries to reduce their number, resulting in a squad of twelve Spartans in the final novel.
