Covenant: Difference between revisions

Engineers appear in three games: ''Halo 3: ODST ,Halo Wars'' and ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', however they finally make an up-close appearance in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' as "floating bombs".<ref>[[Naughty Naughty (Achievement)|Naughty Naughty achievement]] for ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''</ref> In ''Halo: CE'', one would need ''Halo'' Map Tools to bring Engineers into the game. In ''Halo Wars'', it is a support unit used to heal and repair Covenant units. In military terms, they are a non-militant race. They are needed to maintain the Covenant war machines and will only converse with the Prophets (also individuals who learn their language). This, however, indicates Engineers are very high in the caste system, probably because the Covenant are aware of how much they are needed and that the Engineer's grasp on Covenant '''''and''''' foreign technology, constantly examining or repairing any nearby technology regardless of affiliation or taking things apart and then reassembling them either to original shape or something new. It is believed that the Engineers helped the [[Covenant]] to understand how to use the technology effectively.<ref>''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''</ref> Engineers are actually an artificial species created by the Forerunners, which could contribute to their high status. They are called '''Huragok''' in the [[Forerunner]] and Covenant language.
