You're full of sh**, Supahbadmarine. You know why?

One, I was accounting for the vehicles from Halo Wars. These vehicles include a wide variety of specialized vehicles for a variety of  roles. In addition, two of the three you mentioned were meant for specialties as well. A Baneblade wouldn't stand a chance against a Gremlin and Rhino, hands-down.

In addition, I must remind you that UNSC armor technology incorporates far superior energy shielding on a smaller scale than the Imperium, across the board. The Imperium, as you conceded only issues these to higher ranks.

Personal armor in the UNSC is far more advanced than the Imperium, with the laughably archaic Power Armor being in the Forerunner scale, a class 1 at the very most.

The second point of personal melee weaponary seems to treat the Energy Sword, a envelope of superheated matter/plasma wrapped in a forcefield as "just a sword".

Ranged Weaponary is yet again, treating weapons able to pierce Spartan Armor as laughably incompetent.

And might I remind you, Mini-nukes are quite common for the UNSC.
