'''Stalks''' are a type of biological structure grown in areas of high [[Flood]] infestation. Their precise functions to the parasite are unknown, though they seem to consist of larger growths on which several [[Flood blister|blisters]] are grown. When disturbed, the blisters on the stalk explode and release various [[infection form]]s - predominantly [[Flood spore|spore clouds]] and [[pod infector]]s.{{Ref/Game|Id=HW|HW|Flood Stalk in-game unit}}

The '''Flood Stalk''' is a [[The Flood|Flood]] structure in ''[[Halo Wars]]''. When destroyed, it releases a couple of groups of [[Pod infector|infection forms]]. It seems to consist of a few of [[Flood blister|Flood Blisters]] on a biomass stalk. Flood Stalks, like [[Flood blister|Flood Eggs]], are benign and only act when harmed. Unlike in the case of Flood Eggs in the game, they will not release resources so can be ignored with no loss.

Flood Stalks appear as a Flood structure in ''[[Halo Wars]]''. When destroyed, it releases a couple of groups of infection forms. Like [[Flood blister|Flood Eggs]], stalks are benign and only act when harmed. However, unlike the eggs they do not drop {{HWResources|resources}} when destroyed - leaving little reason to attack them.
