Minors were considered the lowest-ranking of Unggoy in the Covenant's war machine for many years. Minors saw action in a myriad of theaters during the decades-long [[Human-Covenant War]], during which time they would typically be treated as expendable cannon fodder. In the conflict's final year, Unggoy Minors fought in during the [[Fall of Reach]], the [[Battle of Installation 04]], the [[Battle for Earth]], the [[Battle of Installation 05]], and the [[Battle of Installation 00]]. When the [[Great Schism]] broke out, Minors found themselves falling on a number of different sides of fighting, often in accordance with the wishes of their superiors at the time. After the war's conclusion, large numbers of Unggoy Minors fought on behalf of [[Merg Vol's Covenant]] during the [[Battle of Draetheus V]] in [[2554]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]''</ref> Although Minors were not prevalent in [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]], they were employed by the faction during the [[Battle of Installation 03]] in [[2557]] | Minors were considered the lowest-ranking of Unggoy in the Covenant's war machine for many years.
