Spartans were designed for a specific purpose, they are not a standard

The autodrive rules were excellent.

The dreadnoughts still have living pilots. the pilots are mortally
wounded marines who are hooked up to life support and stasis systems.
It is often considered a fate worse than death to be trapped inside a

You may think you can fly, but you better not try it
