I think that the closest a SPARTAN program came to ethical was ORION. Because they used adult volunteers, like the IVs, but the augmentations weren't so drastic that they needed constant maintenance to not die. It can be argued that it was still fairly unethical, but as far as Spartans go, I'd say that Johnson got a better deal than Palmer

Almost forgot to answer this one!

Anyway: YEAH.

The end results still weren't amazing for ORION graduates, canon's a little loose on it but there's always been implications that they had physical/mental problems later (I just found out that one attempt at squaring up the "Boren's Syndrome" lore with Johnson was the 2009 Halo Encyclopedia stating that "Boren's Syndrome" wasn't real and was just the ONI coverup name for symptoms of ORION Project weirdness) as a result. But it's treated as an unsuccessful project and not oh yeah we gotta maintenance these literal actual people for the rest of their lives and that's fine.

Halo Wars 2 - Sgt. Avery Johnson Unit breakdown for Multiplayer

Following on from the breakdown for Sgt. Johnson’s Blitz cards, here is the breakdown for his unit’s in normal multiplayer. Lets begin!

Sergeant Johnson [Hero Unit] - 0 Population / 450 Resources / 450 Power

Sergeant Johnson is the hero unit for, ermm, Sergeant Johnson. Yes he is just like Kinsano, Decimus and Sgt. Forge where he would rather be on the battlefield then sat in the background. He will enter the battlefield in a mech suit that heavily resembles one of the original concepts for MJOLNIR armour for the first generation of Spartans, which Sgt. Johnson is, so the suit is very fitting for him. The initial version of Johnson has just a Minigun and the ability to drop a Repair Beacon on the ground to heal all friendly unit, it’s pretty much Restoration Drones on a unit, he does have some upgrades though:

Smart Missile - 450 Power Adds a Smart Missile onto Johnson's mech suit, this periodically fires a long range missile. This can attack air units!

Beacon Shield - 600 Power This upgrades the Repair Beacon so that unit’s inside take less damage and make the Repair Beacon last longer and heal faster.

Gauss Chaingun - 850 Power Replaces the Minigun with a Gauss Chaingun which does alot more damage.

Mantis [Ground Vehicle] - 5 Population / 400 Resources / 0 Power

Now aswell as the hero unit Johnson also has 2 other units that are unique to him and the first one if the Mantis. Now the Mantis for Sgt. Johnson doesn’t seem to make much sense since Johnson has zero connection to the Mantis, but since this is all mech themed it was a good way to bring the Mantis into Halo Wars 2. Now the Mantis replaces the Warthog and is much slower then the Warthog, but is much more powerful, not only that but the Mantis is pretty good against air unit’s aswell as ground. Now for the single upgrade for the Mantis:

Missile/Shield Req. - 600 Power Upgrades the Mantis missile to do more damage.

Colossus [Ground Vehicle] - 9 Population / 750 Resources / 120 Power

Fun fact about the Colossus, the Colossus is a giant Mantis, which you will notice very quickly, but the fun part is the Halo 4 map Adrift has a giant Mantis in the middle of the map that’s under construction, well we now know that is actually a Colossus that’s being constructed. Onto the unit itself for Halo Wars 2 and this is a beefed up Mantis and replaces the Scorpion tank, now unlike the Mantis this has a much larger attack radius and can still attack air. For the upgrade this bad boy has:

Stomp - 500 Power Allows the Colossus to stomp the ground, stunning and damaging all enemy ground units around it.

And there you have it, all the other units are the exact same as all UNSC leaders.
