| The harness used by Imperials was also issued to some troops during the [[Human-Covenant War]],<ref>'''[[Halo: Initiation]]'''</ref> and is more resilient than the [[Unggoy Storm|Storm]] version. The helmet is a heavy armor faceplate which protects the whole face. The methane tank resembles a [[Balahoan octopoda]].{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}} A similar configuration of harness was issued by [[Banished]] [[Unggoy Assault]]s, albeit more comparable to a more resilient version of the normal standard [[Unggoy combat harness|combat harness]] similar to those used during the Human-Covenant War, which was as well as used by Banished [[Unggoy Conscript]]s.{{Ref/Game|Id=HINF|HINF}}

| ===History===
| | |affiliation=[[Storm]] |
| Imperials in Mdama's Covenant are veterans of the [[Human-Covenant War]], having served under the [[Covenant]] [[Covenant military|military]] in the hegemony's prime. As befits of their history of service, they are given slightly higher rank privileges and more durable armor from their [[Sangheili]] superiors.{{Ref/Reuse|h4guide}} As Jul's Covenant faction gained permanence, it is not known if Imperials will keep their status or will be assimilated into the larger Unggoy population.<ref name="VIS">'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''' ''- Page 37''</ref>

| | | The '''Unggoy Imperials'''<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/Universe/Detail/character-enemy-renders/421563ab-3b18-4e29-8487-3dd79b627a70#imageNumber=17 '''Halo Waypoint:''' ''New Halo 4 Renders'']</ref> are a rank of [[Unggoy]] serving under the [[Storm]] faction. While the vast majority of the unggoy exist outside this role, the Unggoy Imperial class is anything but small. Earmarked by their experience in the First Covenant, Imperials are experienced soldiers from the previous war and have in turn, been granted a slightly higher position within the new Covenant order. Although they are generally equipped with normal infantry weapons, they wear more resiliant armor and protective face-shielding, increasing their overall durability on the battlefield.[http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-US/halo4guide] |
