Spartan Team Omega Leader

I'm a very articulate person. In engrish.

It's never easy, is it?

I couldn't find a better place to put this and I knew for a fact that B.net Universe users could answer these for me.

I realize that Spartan I's were the first to experience physical changes (Orion Project). What are the differences between II's and III's?

Why is there a lot more III's than there are II's? There are currently 9 or 10 II's and over 200 III's.

Thanks.

It's debatable but Spartan IIs are generally stronger, faster, taller, and basically technically better than Spartan IIIs in every way. Of course, individual skill plays a roll in this, as with everything.

And it's simply cheaper/easier to create SIIIs than SIIs because the gene select pool is wider, training is less thorough, equipment isn't as good and the augmentation process is cheaper.

So would the Spartans on Reach most likely be III's? Because John could have easily mastered the missions that Noble Team faced without any casualties or difficulty.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Pretty much what Wolvers said.

The main thing that distinguishes a S-III from an S-II is the extra augmentation kurt introduced into Gamma Company. It alters the subject's frontal lobe to enhance aggression to the point where they can take the worst kind of damage and still be standing.

For instance, in GoO Dante has his entire mid-section blown apart from concentrated needler fire. However he is still capable of blowng up the bunker and sprinting to Kurt before he dies.
