The Covenant have leaders that double as in-game units while the UNSC leader powers vary greatly and are numerous. Hero units are more adept to fighting, possessing more armor for protection against enemy units as well as access to unique weaponry and "special abilities" (such as "Rage mode" for [[Ripa 'Moramee|the Arbiter]] or special upgrades like the ODSTs for Captain Cutter). | ||
In [[campaign]], leaders can be revived if they are killed in action, as long as the life bar is halfway full. The life bar automatically regenerates while the leader is knocked down.

The life bar automatically regenerates while the leader is knocked down. However, in [[Skirmish]] or multiplayer if they die they die for good and will have to be purchased again to be on the battlefield, though only Covenant hero units are present on the battlefield in Skirmish and multiplayer. | ||
