Major is an Unggoy rank of the Covenant Loyalists [1][2][3].

Background

Role

Unggoy Majors are higher than rank than Minors and are slightly more powerful than their lesser counterparts in terms of strength and leadership. They often lead Minors in battle, and sometimes entire Lances when no higher caste species are present. However, even these higher-ranked Unggoy hold no power over any other forces in Covenant society.

Description

They wear red armor as opposed to the orange armor of Minors and are more courageous as well, often staying to fight under conditions that would make their lesser brethren flee. If all their commanders, Sangheili or Jiralhanae, are killed, they will sometimes stand and fight. However, they still aren't very courageous and can often be observed fleeing along with Minor Grunts, but more likely to go suicidal than the minors. They usually fight alongside a combined team of other Unggoy and Kig-yar, and have command over lower ranked Kig-Yar and Unggoy.

Deployment

During combat, Majors are usually the first one to jump out of the Dropship. They are known to combine their forces in battle often the Majors will pair up and fight together with numerous subordinate Unggoy and even Kig-yar or Yanme'e soldiers. On the level Two Betrayals, a pair of Major Grunts were seen using Fuel Rod Guns with considerable skill against the Master Chief, suggesting that at least some are issued heavy weapons.
