In Response To: Re: Halo/Marathon Timeline (Tynskel)

: It is a possibility. Marathon could have taken place after the Covenant wars,
: except, that would mean they went from Mark V to Mark IV cyborgs, and that
: the weapon technology, except for the fusion pistol, would have been back
: water. Plus, humans had jump technology, yet the Marathon doesn't.... and
: one more thing.... It says in the Bridge of the PoA that there is a
: "colony ship for sale, cheap."

I beg to differ--

The Marathon Timeline states that the Marathon launches just before "This century left blank". The Mark IV (4) would have been on the Marathon, and the Mark V (5) would have come afterward and occured in Halo. Scientific developments would still occur on Earth, hence the weapons developments, and Jump Technology being developed. It would seem that the FTL technology would have been developed AFTER the MArathon launched.

Or have i missed something here?
