It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank god that such men lived. ----------- No Bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country. (both by George S. Patton jr.)

What are the new spartans being used for? I have heard they are almost like a heavy lifting spartan meant for industry. Is this true?

Because Muslims surgically implant organic bombs in their testicles, which in turn will be injected into women during sex, which will grow into BABY BOMBS!

lolno, there are cheaper ways to lift heavy stuff.

There isn't really any info on them apart from the fact that the project was initiated.

The new Spartans are more like a plot device for future stories to be told. Kinda of cheap, I know.

Most of the Spartan IIs are dead, Most of the Spartan IIIs are dead. Humanity is in a Cold War-style era and without any new Spartans, they'd be royally screwed.

Also, plot device for the future.

As the guy above you said, most of the Spartans are all dead, and the galaxy is arguably a scarier place then it was when we were at war. We need as many super humans as possible to help set anything straight.

The industrial workforce idea came about because they are attatched to the Infinity project, which implies they may be helping with manufacturing it. This would not be their only purpose, but it could easily be a purpose for them.

We are all going to get banned aren't we?

I don't understand how Spartans being deployed on that ship can cause you to think of anything else other than just that. They were probably sent out there for augmentations or to get use to the ship.

Nah not JUST that. Too simple a task to send Spartan IVs to a ship. While what you mentioned is almost definitely correct as well, The Infinity is getting ready for a big mission, I'd bet. And when you send your finest ships, you're gonna send your strongest troops with it.
