The '''Skirmisher Commando''' is a rank held by a select number of [[Kig-Yar]] [[Skirmisher]]s in the [[Covenant military]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach Official Strategy Guide]]'''</ref> Commandos are essentially the special operations division of the Skirmisher contingent.<ref name="HE157">'''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]''', ''page 157''</ref> | |||
==Description== | |||
Skirmisher Commandos are a part of the [[T'vaoan]] Skirmisher contingent that are deployed by the [[Covenant]]. Commandos are specifically trained and designed to form specialized combat [[file]]s and infantry hunter-killer units. Commandos operate in discrete close-knit groups with extremely specific mission parameters. Other members of the [[Covenant military]] recognize Commandos on the battlefield for their incredibly proficient unit cohesion. | |||
The first Commandos were selectively picked from sectarian societies from the [[asteroid]]s that orbit [[Chu'ot]]. The Kig-Yar on these asteroids were sustained by [[Wikipedia:grey market|gray market]] trade and developed free from the government that dominated the Kig-Yar homeworld of [[Eayn]]. They were employed by the original [[Kig-Yar]] government's militia to fight off recurring looting and [[piracy]] that was common on the asteroids and other Kig-Yar colonies in an extremely ruthless and precise fashion. When the [[Covenant]] first arrived in the [[Y'Deio system]], the Commandos joined forces with the pirates in an attempt to fend off the intruders.{{Ref/Reuse|HE157}} | |||

Occasionally in combat, they will utilize [[Type-27 hologram|hologram]]s of themselves in order to fool their enemies in attacking it instead of them.
