The Flood Bomber Form is an airborne Flood form and a Halo Wars Flood unit.[1] It attacks by dropping Flood Growth Pods full of Infection Forms on enemies. It is usually spawned through either a Flood den, vent or colony.
Description
The Bomber Form appears to have an abdomen similar to the head of a Flood Carrier Form, and this is likely where they incubate their Infection Forms. It is also probably where they hold whatever keeps them in the air, probably a lighter-than-air gas, similar to Huragok.
The front has a face-shaped appendage with two empty eye-holes. Because most Flood forms do not use eyes, but instead the sensory 'legs' on the end of the Infection Forms, to move around, it is likely this is a natural creature to the Shield World which has been taken over by the Flood and turned into a floating carrier. It is likely it was a floating creature already. It has two arm-like tentacles coming from the sack on either side of the 'head', and many tentacle-like appendages coming from the 'mouth'.
Trivia
- The Pain Train skull on the Halo Wars level Beachhead requires the player to kill 10 of these forms.[2]
- In an issue of GamePro, it was mentioned that there would be a second flying Flood incarnation besides the Flood Swarms. This turned out to be the Bomber Form. There was also a picture of the Bomber Form accompanied with the confusion of GamePro as to what it was.
- Although there are many rumors, it cannot be an infected Huragok as Huragok are artificially created. It is also too big to be a Huragok.
