All compaines recieved the first four augmentations, but the last three, only Gamma Company. -ED 01:55, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Which Is better?

Does the Spartan II augmentation have better results than the Spartan III because I thought that the loss of the mortality rates would mean it wouldent be as good.TheBlueBlur 19:22, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

• The CHRYSANTHEMUM augmentations really weren't any less effective than those of the SPARTAN-IIs, as they were really just a refinement upon the originals. However, the decreased mortality rate was certainly a benefit. As for Kurt's secret administration of illegal drugs during Gamma Company's procedures - that's another story. --"A government strong enough to give you everything you want...is strong enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson 19:41, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

In Comparison to Spartan-IIs

This whole section should be removed. It has no citations to official sources for all its claims, and Ghosts of Onyx clearly shows Spartan-IIIs operating well alongside a veteran S-II (Kurt-051), and working well with other Spartans, despite lacking Mjolnir armor.

I agree with the above, calling them inferior is stupid, i don't see the same mention of inferiority on the Spartan IV page. The III's were not in the same circumstances; had they been feilded in teams of 300 all equipped in Mjolnir armour and aged 20ish (so their augmentations would have settled and maybe increased somewhat)and had the same mortality rates in combat then yes, they would be inferior compared to handfuls of II's destroying cruisers and space stations....this however isn't the case. The III's are pretty much thrown out straight after augmentation and wear, in essence, glorified ODST armour. To my knowledge Tom and Lucy are the only III's to date of any appreciable age that can be compared; and they do just fine alongside the Spartans of Blue team without all the advantages of a super suit and as many miles on the clock. The enhancements (fair enough they don't all have 'perfect genes' - but do we truly know how much of an effect this has?) make them comparable, the level of training is comparable (arguably the III's is better than the II's as they had a II training them - who better to know how to train someone with their abilities?) - the only appreciable difference is Mjolnir.Qzmju123 (talk) 14:05, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

I agree with the above as well. If there is no citation for it by now then it definitely should be removed. That's a pretty strong accusation to say that the Spartan IIIs are that inferior without any source for it at all.
