I like how you used the fancy name for the assault rifle. Anyway, even though the Spartans are super soldiers, they can be overwhelmed by numbers (reach is proof of that) and as I stated before, even with out the other trooper corps (scout and what not) the stormtroopers still number in the billions or trillions. I Don't know the numbers of the 40k side, but I do know that there are only a few thousand Spartans, maybe even less than that.

The IG generally outnumber the Stormtroopers on the ground and if Industry regards wasn't a beef for the Imperium in general let alone the IG, they might potentially outnumber them in deployment as well. Though this one time I explained that I recalled that bit, I learned that the Stormtroopers aren't exactly the majority for the GE's ground forces either, and when I pointed out with how the IoM's PDFs are a size-based response to the GE's Imperial Army, the GE's Imperial Army has a response for that in terms of position rather than numbers. Needless to say, that freaked me out when I learned about it. O____O' |

Im confident the K/D ratio for the spartans will be heavily lopsided though. If the battle turns into the Empire throwing waves of soldiers it'll just be a war of attrition. |

The Spartans are gonna have to fight really smart, smarter than usual in fact. If they can learn how to operate the opposition's weapons in time from any enemy kills they can make, this may be of use for their survival. |

Well, they did figure out how to use an myriad of alien weapons during their war.

starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Stormtrooper_armor"protected the troopers from very harsh environments as well as projectiles and kinetic energy weapons.The armor significantly reduced damage to the wearer from a blaster bolt, but it could be completely penetrated by a more powerful cannon blast. The body glove allowed for operation in warm or cold climates, however it could protect the trooper from almost any environment -- from total vacuum conditions to the very extremes in cold and heat for a very limited period of time." Now forgive me but, last I checked the Assault Rifles used in Halo fired bullets. So unless they start taking weapons from the battle field or use armor piercing rounds (Im not sure those will work either) then they will be fighting hand to hand. (or trying to hit the stormies in between the plates.)

MA5D: M118 7.62x51mm FMJ-AP These rounds were powerful enough to pierce Covenant armor platting as well as vehicle hulls.
The M6G uses 12.7×40mm (.50 caliber) M225 SAP-HE (Semi-Armor Piercing, High Explosive). These rounds have a jacket of copper or cupro-nickel around the projectile while the projectile itself is hollow and filled with an explosive compound and a delayed-detonation impact fuse. When the round impacts a target, the jacket will initially help the projectile maintain its shape, allowing it to travel into the target before detonating almost immediately after impact, causing massive tissue damage and system shock.

Again troop numbers are equalized to 100,000 with the Spartans having an even split of all 4 Spartan types so keep that in mind. So for now I'm going to mostly watch unless I feel it's necessary otherwise.
