User blog comment:Western Gen/Speculations for Season 12/@comment-10990964-20140715130719

OK, here's the MAIN question:

Locus, Felix and the other mercs were a team in THE GREAT WAR. So how the fuck did they get their hands on Forerunner weaponry? Noone knew about this kind of technology until the events of Halo 4, wich creates a time gap of 7 years. I really doubt it passed that much between Season 10 and Season 11, not to mention The Merc Team planned this operation even sooner.
