Unggoy Minor

The Unggoy Minor is the lowest and most common infantry unit in theCovenant Army.

Description
Minors are the lowest form of rank in the Unggoy ranking system, essentially being little more than expendable cannon fodder, although they prove much more of a threat in large numbers. They are one of the most common enemies, rivaled only by the Flood Infection Forms. However, on higher difficulties such as Heroic and Legendary, they became somewhat uncommon, mostly replaced with Unggoy Majors and Ultras.

Bearing light-orange methane breathers and armor, Sangheili and Jiralhanae often send them into battle with little or no compunction.

Minors are the rough equivalent of the UNSC Private. Theoretically equal in rank to Kig-Yar Minors, they will often be seen in groups with several other Unggoy Minors, usually being led by an Unggoy Major, Sangheili, or Jiralhanae. Minors exhibit various combat behaviors when their commander is killed; the most common combat behavior being to simply retreat and seek cover, but sometimes will arm themselves with plasma grenades and attempting to perform a Suicide Attack by charging towards the enemy.

Trivia

 * Minors usually do not throw Plasma Grenades, but when they do, they sometimes throw them at point-blank range and accidentally kill themselves and/or their allies instead of the player.

 * The only levels where they don't appear are The Library from Halo: Combat Evolved, The Arbiter, The Oracle, Sacred Icon, Quarantine Zone and The Great Journey from Halo 2, Floodgate, and Cortana from Halo 3.
 * In Halo 3: ODST Minors, Majors and Ultras regularly wield Fuel Rod Guns in Firefight.
