In ''Halo Wars'', Flood dens ceaselessly produce Flood forms. Flood dens can not be destroyed, but the player can damage them enough to force them into a withered, dormant state.

They can't be destroyed by "conventional" weaponry, but players can damage them enough to force them into a withered, dormant state. The effect is only temporary, and given enough time, the Flood Dens will recover and begin producing more Flood forms. It is speculated that the Flood Dens will only produce [[Pure Forms]] as it is a natural "building" and [[Combat Forms]] require a host to be created, although it has been stated that the Flood have not achieved the "Pure Form level" at this time, as the [[Gravemind]] has not been fully spawned yet. If this is the case, it probably "stores" [[Infection Forms]].

The den is an organic structure that gestates various Flood forms. Such structures are only known to have been used during a battle on a Flood-controlled Shield World in February 2531.

Gameplay[edit]

In Halo Wars, Flood dens ceaselessly produce Flood forms. Flood dens can not be destroyed, but the player can damage them enough to force them into a withered, dormant state. The effect is only temporary, and, given enough time, a den will recover and begin producing more Flood forms. However, they can be destroyed by Sentinels.
