In the Spartan set you get 16 Spartan models and 4 Elites but you still have a game of 4 v 4 so it’s not crowded. It does however let you take more options and even take multiples of the same units if you want. The keywords in the reference guide are limited in the base set, you will only need to remember about 10 of them and they are rather easy to remember, as and when Mantic release new units you will also get introduced to the other keywords (some of which are only usable with covenant and banished…). Learn it slowly but don’t assume you have to learn it all at once :)
The knife having ap2 refers to the idea that Spartans know where to shove the knife between plates and into the neck seal etc, rubber has no armour against a combat knife. In the video game I whack from behind can instant kill you even with shields so it’s trying to keep in line with the game.
