There are no Spartan I's the greek spartans are the spartan I's thats why they call the new ones Spartan II's because they are the second ones, (after the greek Spartans). Just for an idea of how good the original spartans were:
At thermopyle 300 King leonidis (spartan king) told 500 athenians to flee to safety while the spartans hold off the persians. What happened was the 300 spartans killed over 12,000 persians before being betrayed by a bribed athenian who told the persians about a secret pass that would lead the persians around the spartans and behind them. The persians surrounded the spartans and killed them. If the spartans hadnt been betrayed they had a chance of killing all 20,000 persians and winning the battle. Thats how powerful they were. the project that is just now happening, is named after 7000 yaers spartan 2s, spartan is just the codename for the project. the greek spartans were in a fort, and had catapults, and ballistas to wipe the board clean with, plus archers. every time they all fired at once it would kill 100- 200 people, and they were almost invulnerable behind the fort, so they continuallt bombarded them for days, and got that many kills.
