-'''Field Master''' is a title given to a high-ranking [[Sangheili]] in command of ground forces. They are characterized by their gold-colored [[Sangheili harness|armor]].<ref>'''Halo: The Flood''', ''pages 150-151'' (2003 edition); ''pages 166-167'' (2010 edition)</ref>
-==Background==
+==Overview==
-Field Masters command large forces of [[battalion]] strength or greater. Unlike their [[human]] analogues, Field Masters take a much more active role in combat, charging into the battle with their troops rather than giving orders from headquarters far from the conflict. They are in charge of all warriors, as well as all armor, air support, and matériel, utilized by their army.
+===Covenant===
+Field Masters consist of select Generals, tasked with taking charge of temporarily-assembled large military groups such as [[warhost]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} They operate at a similar command level to the aforementioned Generals, or [[Shipmaster]]s.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc11|Enc11|Page=135}} They are typically signified by their golden [[Sangheili harness|harnesses]].{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}}
-Similar to the title of [[Shipmaster]], the position of Field Master is not limited to any particular rank, and that the post may be assumed by Sangheili of different ranks, such as [[Sangheili General|Generals]] or [[Sangheili Zealot|Zealots]].
+===Covenant remnants===
+The title of Field Master was continued by several [[Covenant remnants|remnant factions]] of the defunct empire, including [[Merg Vol's Covenant]] and [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]]. [[Merg Vol]] deployed a number of Field Masters during his [[Battle of Draetheus V|invasion]] of [[Draetheus V]] in [[2555]], using the unique magnetic signatures of the planet to hide their location. Ultimately, they were hunted down and assassinated by [[SPARTAN-IV program|SPARTAN-IV]] [[Sarah Palmer]]. These Field Masters were outfitted with {{Pattern|Nakata'vho|plasma repeater}}s.{{Ref/Level|HSA|Mission 8: Hunt for the Sangheili Command}} The [[Battle of Installation 03]] saw [[Jul 'Mdama]] deploy several Field Masters armed with {{Pattern|M'tara|focus rifle}}s onto the surface of [[Installation 03|Gamma Halo]].{{Ref/Level|HSS|???}}{{Citation needed}}
-During the [[Battle of Draetheus V]] in [[2554]], [[Merg Vol]]'s [[Merg Vol's Covenant|ground forces]] were led by a number of Field Masters. These commander's locations were well hidden by Draetheus V's unique magnetic signatures, but ultimately this did not stop [[SPARTAN-IV program|SPARTAN-IV]] [[Sarah Palmer]] from tracking them down and killing them. [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] employed Field Masters during the [[Battle of Installation 03]].

-They are one of the most powerful Sangheili fought on the battlefield. Their armor and shielding is much tougher than that of a Sangheili [[Major]]s and they rarely make mistakes on the battlefield. They are always seen commanding a [[lance]] of [[Covenant]] troops. They typically carry an [[energy sword]], but in some instances they carry a [[Plasma Rifle]].
