I meant the Snipers of Yore.

Do you mean to say that in the Halo: Combat Evolved remake (alleged,) the Jackal snipers are going to be made into Skirmishers? Or that all the Jackals we encountered in Old Mombasa were Skirmishers? No. They were Jackals.
Imagine it this way;
In Halo 2 the only Covenant we encounter (sans High Charity,) were those from Regret's fleet. He came to Earth thinking there was nothing here, so he brought very few heavy-class troops, no Skirmishers (as there was no need,) and certainly no Brutes. There would have been no need for a Scarab Assault Platform, so they simply brought a Scarab Excavation Platform.
On High Charity, we simply didn't explore the districts that Skirmishers populated.
I think Skirmishers were somewhat of a rarity too weren't they?
And didn't their fighting in the Battle of Reach severely diminish their numbers as well?
Yeah, Bungie stated that at the Fall Of Reach, the skirmisher ranks were pretty much exhausted due to the high casualty rate they suffered through out the invasion.
