Flood root

Roots are biological "structures" used by the Flood for defending their hives. They attack by whipping threats to the hive with great force, easily killing infantry and heavily damaging vehicles. They are also capable of grabbing lifeforms and converting them into Flood biomass. Flood roots were encountered during a battle on a Flood-controlled Shield World in February 2531, and during the Banished occupation of Installation 00 in 2559.
