Commander is a Sangheili military rank within Jul 'Mdama's Covenant remnant faction.
Designation
Role
Sangheili Commanders, like the Sangheili Majors before them, act as attack-and-command units within mixed-unit teams. They usually assert themselves as the leaders of local squads, and given their experience with mixed groups, they are valued for their expertise and intelligence on the field of battle.
Combat
Sangheili Commanders are battle-hardened warriors. Many of them have decades of experience behind them from serving with the Covenant, making them dangerous opponents on the battlefield. Commanders have been known to wield both the infamous Type-51 carbine and the devastating Type-50 concussion rifle.[1]
Armor
Sangheili Commander armor can be described as a more sophisticated set of the Sangheili Storm armor with both sporting the same lower body armor and chest harnesses; Commanders on the other hand wear more angular shoulder-pads, wrist-guards, a smooth bodysuit and a much more ornate helmet. Commander Armor appears similar to the suits worn by Sangheili Officers from the original Covenant in terms of design, although the Commander's set is colored a deep claret compared with the Officer's scarlet.[2] They can also occasionally be found in a green combat harness.[3] The raised claw on their boots are reminiscent of ancient ceremonial armor.[4]
