Cocooned Base

The Cocooned Base is a flood structure encountered on the Ark in 2559.

Description
The cocooned base is a flood structure that is encountered in the Halo Wars 2 DLC, Awakening the Nightmare. It is fills the role of the flood main base and produces a large variety of flood forms ranging from combat forms to infected vehicle units. Though it re-purposes the Banished citadel's buildings, the cocooned base does not make use of the turret placements outside of the base.

Tactics
Since cocooned bases are the source of a large amount of the floods units in game play, they should be destroyed with haste to prevent endlessly spawning flood units being produced. Cocooned bases can be attacked using similar tactics to attacking a normal Banished base, with leader powers and a large group of units. It can even be said that they are easier to attack than a regular base, due the lack of turret placements or shield generators. Alternatively, a large group of anti building units such as Locusts are also effective.
