Yes.it's based during halo 1 so is halo wars.( but that wasn't really a halo game)

No, Halo Reach shows what happened before Halo 1. In fact, in one of the missions in halo reach, you can see Master chief
after Halo reach,there is no more In total, there is :Halo 1,Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo ODST, Halo wars and Halo reach
this game is a prequel which means that it's before halo 1 and before the point in time where elites work together with the humans. hope this helped.
The books are based of the game (says in the back of the book) lol Their mostly for true halo fans that give them tons of back story of the characters in halo Example: you learn how John (aka Master Chief) came to be. fall of reach is before halo 1, the flood is halo 1, first cotact between halo 1 and halo 2, ghosts of onyx im not sure, contact harvest before halo 1 and just before halo wars, cole protocall i havent read yet.
It goes: Halo Wars, halo reach, halo 1 , halo 2, halo odst then halo 3. But there's a fourth halo coming out soon that it not made by bungie. If you want to know how it all started read the first halo book; contact harvest. It's quite good and explains a lot. By the way, planet Harvest was the first to be raided with the covenant. Only because it's the furthest planet from Earth.
