Hi Meta.
The only problem I see is that Spartan 2s wouldn't be able to be infected by the flood, due to Mjolnir.

I think the genetic modifications the spartans go through make them immune to the flood infection. I know the SPARTAN-1's(ORION Project) were immune, because that was the reason Johnson was able to make it out of the chamber where the flood was released.

Yes Bourrin, On First Strike. Sergeant Johnson was immune because high raidation caused by a crate of plasma grenades which he refused treatment for gave him Boren's Syndrome, which somehow messed up his nervous system.
The flood control a host by matching the host's nervous system or some sci-fi bull like that, but Johnson's was so muddled up they couldn't. As I quote form Johnson himself, 'They passed me over like I was undercooked spinach at a turkey dinner.'
And all this, from memory. Heh.

Sgt. Johnson was immune because of the ORION project, aka SPARTAN-I's. The whole radiation cause of a crate of plasma grenades was a cover story in order to not reveal the ORION project.

Um. Yea, Reaper. Can you tell em where this comes form? Doctor Halsey, the one in charge of the Spartan II Program, knew about ORION. It wasn't a cover for ORION. If you had read first strike, you would know his nervous system was too jumbled up.
And how could he be immune? Is a necessary augmentaion for ORION candidates a jumbling up of their nervous systems?
Come up with a good argument next time, Reaper. You're way outta yo league.

A query by the A.I. Cortana into Johnson's medical history revealed that he had a false condition known as Boren's syndrome. This disease was supposedly contracted while he was stationed at Paris IV. When the Covenant attacked Paris IV, Johnson fought valiantly; during the battle, he repossessed a crate of Covenant plasma grenades when his troops needed them and used them all against the enemy troops to keep them at bay so his fellow soldiers could evacuate. He received a commendation for bravery, and a twelve-hundred-rad cumulative dose of radiation as an unanticipated "bonus" from all the plasma detonations. However, the Boren's syndrome apparently had an unexpected side effect, as it made him effectively immune to infection by the sentient alien parasite known as the Flood because the radiation scrambled his nervous system so much that Flood Infection Forms could not force a match. This rendered the Flood unable to control him. However, the Boren's syndrome story (referred to as the "Paris/BS Spoof"), was a hoax to cover up Johnson's involvement in the ORION Project, and that his immunity to Flood infection is a result of the procedures performed on him to make him a SPARTAN-I.

Well, thank you for showing a source, BUT WHAT THE HELL IS THAT AUGMENTATION THEN?
If somebody gives me proper, full evidence of the augmentation performed on him to make him immune, tell me. I'm dying for an answer.
So, what you're saying is that they just 'happened' to augment him so he was immune to a crazy evil hungry parasite that wasn't even discovered yet, and the only way to be immune to that is to have ur nervous system jumbled? They accidentally did that?
Please don't think this is a flame war. I am simply pointing out that it is a load of rubbish that they accidentally augmented him to be immune to a hungry, mouldy parasite?

Yea, but how the heck did he get the accidnetal augmentation to be immune to an uknown alien parasite that doens't pass up anything? Hell, it probably woulda consumed the chief. Cortana seemed pretty panicky when that infect form got to chief. Why wouldn't they accidentally make Chief immune to flood then? Was it a novelty sort of thing with the augmentation on Johnson?
Sorry if I sound a little angry, but it annoys me how they simply just make it seem as if they accidentally augmented him to be immune, when they didn't know about flood in the first place,and that they didn't happen to give this accidental augmentation to the chief.
Raargh!
Anyway, are people gonna post bipeds, or is this just gonna descend into meaningless chatter?

The procedure changes the central nervous system enough that the flood are not able to control the body. That does not meant that the flood cannot try to kill them anyway. Immune does not mean ignored. And the chief is immune, but that does not mean that anyone outside of the spartan or ORION projects knew about it. Besides, this is hardly the first time an accident or something similar, is used to save one of the main characters in a series.
Also, this is not "meaningless chatter". It's a discussion of the plausibility of a biped concept within the Halo canon.

Truez.
I admit I never heard of the central nervous system thing. Might check that.
Sigh, I concede. You have won this battle yet. But why don't you try and beat me on another important subject... Then we shall see.
However, it said nothing about the Boren's syndrome for th spartan IIs. Which means that chief could've been floody.
Oh dear. Hell on Halo.He would be unstoppable. Absolutely no pain, massively powerful muscles and stuff, even higher jumps, oh god. He could be a boss for something.
However, whopever said John was immune anyway was wrong. So...I HALF WIN!

Spartan-IIs were even better than Spartan-Is. I'm glad the idiotic Boren's syndrome argument is over, you don't realise how many people said "ooh, you're making that up. Spartan Is lived in ancient greece". Bloody hell.
Spartan IIs had no need for the Boren's syndrome cover-up, because, unlike Spartan-Is and IIIs, they were in the public eye to boost morale.

Probably because she couldn't take that risk, but even then it might have just said "Well in that case i'll just cut all the connections to your brain and leave you a useless hulk". Reasoning behind why they didn't do this to Johnson: The flood weren't at a high enough level of ability to realize this was an option, so they just left him.
