::I'm trying to get some clarification from 343i on this but I doubt they'll answer it until the game ships. But what would be the point of releasing the Mark VII after the war (in which the Mark VI just came out a few months before) just because the GEN2 was on it's way. Maybe the Mark VII is the bases of GEN2 systems? And a new upgraded Mark VII was set into the GEN2 systems and is renamed into "GEN2 Mark I"--[[User talk:ADinoSupremacist|ADinoSupremacist]] 02:21, 6 September 2012 (EDT) | ::I'm trying to get some clarification from 343i on this but I doubt they'll answer it until the game ships.

:::Or, MkVII marks the end of the MJOLNIR "Mark" system and that subsequent upgrades to the armour system will be referred simply as GEN2. Note, this was done to MkI - MkIII which did not receive the MJOLNIR designation but is still part of the MJOLNIR development.— <span style="font-size:16px; font-family:OrbitronMedium;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 02:26, 6 September 2012 (EDT) | :::Or, MkVII marks the end of the MJOLNIR "Mark" system and that subsequent upgrades to the armour system will be referred simply as GEN2.

::::Technically, the Mark I, II, and III exoskeletons were not part of Project: MJOLNIR, which began a few years later. They were retroactively shoehorned into the MJOLNIR family when the Mark IV designation was added in 2535. Anyway, I think we should wait to see if ''The Thursday War'' clarifies where the Mark VII fits into MJOLNIR's production history. Maybe the Mark VII is part of, or an alternate name for, GEN2. However, it could just as easily be a limited-production model introduced after the Mark VI but before the issue of GEN2. I'm afraid it's a bit early to say for sure. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|Courage never dies.]] 10:10, 6 September 2012 (EDT) |
