I thought it was rather obvious that the Mark-VII would be used on the Spartan-IVs. There's seriously no confirmation in Glasslands or anywhere?--File:PENGUIN4.gif|15px]]''[[User:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Fluffy</span><span style="color:gray; font-family:Verdana">Emo</span><span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Penguin</span>]]<sup><small>([[User talk:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:gray">ice quack!</span>]])''</small></sup> 16:58, 6 May 2012 (EDT)

Thorne said in [[S1/Didact's Hand|Didact's Hand]] that he enlisted. Don't the IVs have to be chosen rather than enlisted?

:I'm guessing when they started they chose people who would undergo the procedures to become a Spartan if they agreed, then as time went on they also allowed people to enlist but they'd still have to meet a set of requirements.--[[User talk:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] 22:12, 1 December 2012 (EST)

==Timeline of Roster changes==
Based on Palmer's comment about "Old Hands knowing what they were in for" and how Spartan Ops' story begins with a number of SPARTAN fireteams arriving on the infinity--who it appears have never been aboard before given how they didn't recognize their own commander--is it fair to surmise that the Infinity "restocked" it's SPARTAN contingent between Halo 4 and Spartan Ops?  Should this be added somehow?  -- [[User:Spartan 501|Spartan 501]]
==Mountain Squad==
I was discussing with [[User:Guardaxion|Guardaxion]] earlier on whether or not Mountain squad should be named <u>Fireteam Mountain</u> in order to be consistent with the naming of other Spartan fireteams aboard the ''Infinity''. Reason for this is that I noticed, at least when it comes to Spartan Ops, that the words ''team'', ''fireteam'' and ''squad'' were synonymous to each other (i.e. Castle Squad = Fireteam Castle, etc.) However, I noticed that while writing my draft for chapter 3, episode 2 of Spartan Ops, Mountain squad was a UNSC Marine unit, not Spartan. My quick "canon explanation" was that Mountain squad had Spartan-IV members serving as auxiliary units or something, or was an error from the developers (which I highly doubt). In either case, I'm wondering what we should name the article. Something more akin to a Marine Corps unit, or leave it as a Spartan team? -'''{{User|Killjax}}'''
:If it was called ''Mountain Squad'', then its ''Mountain Squad''. No need to interpret 343i's intentions on this one. {{User:Grizzlei/Sig}}
::Alrighty then, thanks. -'''{{User|Killjax}}'''
=="Spartan rank" (Sr) cannon?==
Is the Spartan rank system we see in War Games a cannon thing? Much of the stuff we see in War Games is, yet this isn't mentioned in the article (I think), so I was just curious. [[Special:Contributions/68.99.133.219|68.99.133.219]] 08:25, 28 December 2012 (EST)
:In Spartan Ops, when we receive transmissions, we only see "SPARTAN PAUL DEMARCO" on the corner of our HUD. But I'm guessing the rank we have in War Games is canon because in the Briefing Packet, Palmer wrote a letter to all S-IVs about getting "specializations at level 50" (or rank 50, I forgot), which corresponds with how players need to achieve SR-50 to get Specializations. This is just my assumption though. —<span style="font-family: Eurostile;">'''[[User:Spartan331|<span style="color:#000;">SPARTAN</span>]][[User talk:Spartan331|<span style="color:#888;">331</span>]]'''</span> 09:05, 28 December 2012 (EST)
::Like Spartan331 said, Commander Palmer refers to the Spartan rank system in the ''Infinity'' briefing packet. It's canon, but of course it doesn't reflect a Spartan's actual rank. -[[User:Braidenvl|Courage never dies.]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|talk]]) 10:52, 28 December 2012 (EST)
== Fireteam Kodiak ==
Murphy mentioned Fireteam Kodiak got their Pelican shot down, looks like they're KIA. 1-1 Marines
:True, but Kodiak leader radioed in after it was shot down, so some may have survived.[[User:Spartansniper450/IRC Quotes|<span style="color:#000000">''Col.''</span>]] [[User:Spartansniper450|<span style="color:#00416A">Snipes</span>]][[User talk:Spartansniper450|<span style="color:gold">4</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Spartansniper450|<span style="color:silver">50</span>]] 10:32, 20 February 2013 (EST)

:::False alarm, their Pelican was shot down AFTER insertion. 1-1 Marines
== Fireteam Castle  ==
Is it me, or did no one but Roland, Palmer, Lasky and Crimson know Fireteam Castle got shot down and killed? No one in Majestic says, "Man, can you believe the Hinge-heads got Castle?" or anything. Tex the Spartan
== The fate of ODSTs ==
Has anyone else noticed the similarity between Spartan-IV MJOLNIR-Recruit armour and ODST helmet? Is it possible one branch is about to supplant the other? - anon
== Images of SIV NPCs? ==
I think we should add in images of NPC Spartan-IVs from the campaign. I can't do it since I don't have a capture card. :( — [[User:Hacame|<span style="color:#6699FF; font-family:Futura; font-size:14px; font-weight:bold;">Ha</span>]][[User talk:Hacame|<span style="color:#6699FF; font-family:Futura; font-size:14px; font-weight:bold;">came</span>]] 06:26, 25 July 2013 (EDT)
