I still want to know what happens if I didn't get reinstated as a Spectre in ME2, while Ashley is a Spectre, and I'm not.

That'd be so epic if Ash is given the Normandy. Though I can't imagine BioWare doing that, after all the Normandy is Shepard's ship. Nothin' else will do.


Yeah I know it will never happen but I thought it would be fun to think about.

Maybe she only gets the Normandy while Shepards on trial. Then afterwards Ash was supposed to get her own wings. But since the reapers invade, there is no time. And Shep and Ash are forced to share........ Posted Image

Two Spectres.
One Ship.
And a whole lot of reapers.


Well my Shep told the Council to cram their offer to be "reinstated" where the sun don't shine.
So it would make:
One Spectre.
One Shepard. (because he is his own classification)Posted Image
And a whole mess of Reapers.
Then throw in a Joker because someone has lighten up the mood in ME3.

@Tobi: Sorry I must have missed that post. With Kaidan being a higher rank it will be interesting to see how Bioware handles the two different situations. Hopefully differently because after all Ash and Kaidan are two different characters. Unlike in ME2 where Bioware suddenly made them the same. I mean come on Kaidan is going to shoot an assualt rifle at the swarm he is going to use his biotics. Also they aren't going to act the same exact way to Shepard working with Cerberus. Come on Bioware!

Sorry for the mini rant. lol

Edited for top page Ash and for mini rant:

Hope that's not one of the choices that have no effect in the next game (as in, the path in ME3 still comes out the same, whether still a SpecTRe or decommissioned regardless of your choice). Never liked the prospect of being a SpecTRe anyway.

Ok this is a topic from our friends over in the Kaidan support thread:
As we know Ash becomes a Spectre and the Normandy was given to her after Shep goes on trial. What if Ashley is in command of the Normandy for awhile in ME3 and Shepard is under her command? How would you think your Shep would react?

Mine would be somewhat cool with it and then become a proud Alliance soldier in the armory that can't take anything seriously. :P

I know this is way out there and will lead to too many plot holes but hey, I thought it was an interesting idea.


None of my Shepards would like it to be honest.  Posted Image

It appears that the canon plot has Shepherd no longer a Spectre (at least if you start ME2 from scratch with new council and Udina) because you don't get the chance for re-instatement.  In my imported canon playthrough, Shep does accept re-instatement as a spectre.  I thought it might be of some benefit.  Sadly, I have this feeling it will get revoked in the start of ME3.  Posted Image
When the reapers attack, Shepherd is the one human who has the ties and ability to rally alien species to help.  Both Ashley and Kaiden know this.  Should Shepherd be subordinate to them in any command scenario, I can see them being  heavily dependant upon him; rank or status not withstanding.

That actually sounds pretty cool, but I cant see it happening, as alot of people wouldn't like Shepard taking orders from a former crew member. And I think Ashley would rather Shepard be in charge, he is her skipper, afterall ''oh captain, my captain''.

Define awhile? If it's anything while she's still able to command like she always does I doubt my Shepar diwll be happy with that since she won't be in control of the Normandy and use her skills to the highest level since she'd have to run everything by Ash which would take time and the reapers would win....unless Ashley doe sthat think she does in Epantiras's mess perfects.Posted Image

Shep: Get your own Williams! *shakes fist*

I think probably even if Ashley were given command of the ship, Shepard would still be clearly recognized as in command of the *mission*.

Has a dev confirmed Ash/Kaidan as a spectre or is it still just speculation from that PSN article

I hope they aren't spectre I rather it be another badass N7 marine we've never met.

If Ash/Kaidan are spectres I wonder why Garrus wasn't made spectre since its possible for him to fight alongside your crew and he was a strong candidate before

They're Spectre's it seems. There is a spectre logo on Ashley's glove, and Kaidan's chest.


Garrus went of the map, as he became Archangel, nobody knew what happend to him. Ash/Kai could have been a Spectre during ME2.

Yes, it is confirmed. Also, Garrus wasn't a strong candidate. He says that he was only one of close to a thousand potential candidates picked from the Turian military.

Didn't the original Normandy (Alliance+Turian made) get blown up in ME2 and Cerberus hands over the Normandy SR2 to Shepard? With Cerberus now on their tail, my guess is the crew of Normandy now acts on Shepard's command and not on Alliance's behalf nor spectre. Ashley's probably be on board possibly to work together with them in stopping the reapers since she already saw them as a threat unlike Alliance or Council who's still unaware of it until the attacks on Earth start. Still, it's fun to speculate though.

This.^

Shepherd could be given operational command of the mission without being the Normandy captain.

Shepard needs all the help he can from the Reapers.

I would think--I would HOPE--s/he would be more interested in collaborating with others willing to help him/her, rather than the schematics of whose ship he's using to traverse across the galaxy.

Shepard has a lot to answer for regarding his/her dealings with Cerberus, a Reaper invasion happens while Joker and Ashley/Kaidan save his/her ass, and Shepard's going to get on their case about who is in command?

Where is it confirmed at besides the PSN article?
Garrus was on Shepard's squad just like Ash/Kaidan plus  he's a member of a COuncil race

He says himself in ME1 that he was one of a thousand when Shepard is talking to him, and tha this father didn't like the idea.

I don't see the logos at all could you show me pics.  nvm.  I see the logo on Ash's glove
Or maybe this means the catsuit is her default armor why would Ash have Spectre gear on at a formal trial.  The Alt. appearance must be her armor and helmet look.

I doubt they became spectres in ME2 I'm sure they would've told you or it would become public.Shepard becoming spectre was heard even in the Terminus Systems

If they became a Spectre its post ME2 maybe we will find out in the new book ME: Deception

They have Spectre insginia all over their armours in all released pictures so far. I would say that is confirmation enough.

You're addressing an entirely different matter here. Garrus wasn't a strong candidate because he was one among thousands of others. That doesn't have anything to do with him being on Shepard's squad later on and even then he doesn't necessairly have to be on Shepard's squad because his recruitment in ME1 isn't mandatory. In ME2, he is a mandatory squadmate but he's fighting at the side of someone collaborating with terrorists.

I would also suggest keeping this discussion about Ash since this is her thread. If you want to talk about Garrus, PM me.

I really don't care about Garrus
The logos sort of confirm they're spectres but until a dev confirms it I will hold my breath

I think Shepherd's view of the situation will be what it has always been - the reaper threat must be eliminated at all costs. Command is irrelevant. Spectre status is irrelevant. Uniting the alien races to eliminate the reaper threat will be the priority and survival the goal.  Ashley and Kaiden would both see eye to eye with him/her on that.

It's a given he will need help to accomplish this and I'm sure he will utilize the people and resources that have helped him/her before. Again, I see Ashley or Kaiden being a big part of that with status and rank not being a factor at all.

IMO,i think the games story will either force you to accept either alliance reinstatement or spectre reinstatement at some point or another that way you can be in command of the council forces and the SR-2.

i aso belive ash would naturaly hand over command to shep once they get settled.she already knows hes the best man for the job and the galaxays only hope.

I can see Ashley being the commanding officer if Shepard or Miranda isn't on the ship. I love ash but I'd rather Miranda be second in command since she's only half a step behind Shepard in that department.

Fine. I guess we didn't need to be consulted about any of this.
