== Compared to Marines ==

Grunts are slightly weaker than the [[Marine]] counterpart. This is because the Squad consists of 3-4 [[Grunt]], 1 [[Brute]] or [[Elite]] and 1 [[Deacon]]. While the marine squad contains 4-5 marines. Making a slight damage diffrence. It is recommended that you use two grunt squads against a marine squad or use the grenade attack straight away and shoot them to death. Grunt Squads are better with jackals staying back and shooting the marines from a distance. This has proven well when facing scout marines or [[Rebel Infantry]]. In [[Halo 3]] a grunt squad would rip apart a marine squad if carrying [[Needler]]s or [[Fuel Rod Gun]]s. In [[Halo 2]], grunts squads and marines are quite equal as long as the player doesn't give the Marines diffrent weapons. In Halo:CE, the Grunt squad is slightly stronger than the marines as you can see that marines always run to the warthogs/cover from the grunts. This makes the marines quite pathetic as help against the squads and their mighty [[Elite]] leaders.
