Talk:SPARTAN-III program: Difference between revisions

Line 379:

Concerning the ''Fleet Battles'' stats table on the page: does ''Fleet Battles'' specifically mention that the Spartans in the game are Spartan-IIIs? Superficially it just looks as though they're "Spartans" in a general sense, which could mean either IIs or IIIs especially given the canonically malleable setting of ''Fleet Battles'' (as an in-universe simulation). In case there's no specific mention of them being IIIs, the [[SPARTAN programs]] page would probably be a more suitable place for the section. On that matter: I've been wondering if it would be better if the "SPARTAN programs" page were renamed just "[[Spartan]]" and slightly re-focused on the soldiers themselves. We could keep the page's existing content virtually unchanged but I believe the title would simply be more encompassing for topics that concern Spartans in a general sense but are not tied to the Spartan branch either. --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|Contribs]]) 00:06, 24 February 2016 (EST)
