Crawlers are often directed by [[Promethean Knight]]s, who regard them as cannon fodder. They are protected by [[Promethean Watcher|Watcher]] [[Sentinel]]s, which can offer them cover in the form of small [[Z-90 hardlight shield|hardlight shields]] or create new Crawlers from raw materials in the ground. In addition to the basic type of Crawler, [[Alpha Crawler|a more heavily armed unit]] and [[Crawler Snipe|a long-range unit]] are also employed.<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/blogs/Headlines/post/2012/06/20/The-Halo-Bulletin-62012.aspx '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''The Halo Bulletin: 6.20.12'']</ref>
