Recently, 343 Industries have made a post on Halo Waypoint that describes, among other things, three new SPARTAN-IIs set to appear in the Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare DLC (which you can read here). These three Spartans have brought the number of named Class Is up to 52, leaving 23 of the original 75 candidates. Because of this, it has come to the attention of the community that as new Spartans are created in canon, their numbers may overlap with the numbers of the Spartans created on this site, and therefore there needs to be a policy regarding the potential renumbering of Spartans. Therefore, I have created this blog post in order to give the community a dedicated place to discuss their opinions on this issue.
