Clans

Clans are formalized (Although some only very loosely) groups that players join for purposes of battling other focused clans (clanmatch in matchmaking) in team games and for practice.

Halo 2 has a clan system that allows you to hold up to 100 people. In Halo 2, any given gamertag may only belong to one clan at a time.

Ranking System
Halo 2 clan system has a ranking system that consists of the following:


 * Peon- Lowest of the classes. Can only participate in clanmatches. Usually used as punishment within a clan
 * Member- average member of the clan. Can recruit people to a clan via clan invite and participate in clanmatches.
 * Staff- managers of the clan. They have all the privileges accorded to the lower ranks, but with the ability of changing ranks of lower ranking clan members (members to staff, member to peon, etc). Can also boot lower ranking members from the clan
 * Overlord- Admin/Leader(s) of the clan. Have all the privileges of staff, except with more power.

Halo 3
Current information on clans of Halo 3:

The first two clans, Unit DELTA and Sacred Honor, of Halo 3 were orrigionally the first two clans based off of highly trained UNSC SPARTAN soldiers and the honorific main force of Sangheili warriors from the ship Sacred Honor that combined together to form a SPARTANs versus Elites clan. The two leaders of the clans are DELTA 122 for Unit DELTA and The Shiina for Sacred Honor. The recruiting from Halo 2 match-making began 8/23/07.

These two clans come complete with training, rank, specialist classes, and over all a great story line of the two. So far, only the SPARTAN unit DELTA's rank's and a few specialist classes are known along with Sacred Honor's standard ranks. Unit DELTA uses every marine rank from recruit to Sargeant Major of the Marine Corps.
