Once a [[Skirmisher Minor]] gains enough experience, it is promoted to the rank of Major. They are moderately stronger and more durable than Minors. Majors are often deployed because of their speed, with some squads being tracked at running forty-five miles per hour in open environments. They are often seen leading low-ranking [[Kig-Yar]] and [[Unggoy]]. The Majors with the highest combat-rating are selected to become [[Skirmisher Murmillo]]nes. | Once a [[Skirmisher Minor]] gains enough experience, it is promoted to the rank of Major.
