*[[SPARTAN-II]]: SPARTAN-IIs are individual units who are superior to Marines. They begin with dual-wielded [[M7/Caseless Submachine Gun|SMGs]] and can hijack enemy vehicles (although this is not the case against uber units), bringing them under player control. They can also be outfitted with [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun|chain guns]] and [[Spartan Lasers]] as well as Neural Implants which help them hijack vehicles faster.<ref name = "IGN E3 2008: ''Halo Wars'' Hands-on">[http://au.xbox360.ign.com/articles/890/890357p1.html E3 2008: Halo Wars Hands-on]. ''Alex Simmons''. Accessed on 2008-17-07</ref> When a SPARTAN pilots a vehicle or hijacks an enemy vehicle, their rank is added to the vehicle's rank and the captured vehicle's stats are increased. Only three SPARTANs can be deployed at a time. They are outfitted with the [[MJOLNIR Mk. IV]]; the in-game units posses traits that are trademarks of the Mk. V armor, however this is for gameplay considerations and is not accepted as canon.

*[[Flame Throwers]]<ref name="Forum">http://www.halowars.com/forums/thread/242938.aspx</ref>: These Marines are specialists equipped with heavier armor and flame-throwers that can used to torch entire infantry units. They can be upgraded with Flash Bang Grenades, which stun enemies when hit, napalm ammunition which allows their attacks to burn slightly afterwards, and oxide tanks, which also increase damage. They can somewhat run faster than Marines.<ref name = "IGN E3 2008: ''Halo Wars'' Hands-on"/>

*[[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC Marines]]: Marines are the basic infantry of the UNSC who are armed with [[MA5 Series]] rifles and have the special ability to throw [[M9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose Grenade|grenades]].<ref name = "CES 09">[http://www.g4tv.com/ces2009/hdvideos/36151/Halo-Wars-CES-09-Cam-Footage.html Halo Wars CES 09 Cam Footage].

However, the medic can only heal existing squad members, not do so and bring back dead members consecutively.
