The General harness is a series armor designs employed by the Sangheili.

OverviewEdit

VariantsEdit

Valiant Prudence harnessEdit

This variant of the General harness was employed by Sangheili Generals serving in the Fleet of Valiant Prudence during the Fall of Reach. It features enhanced energy shielding and a command helmet.[1]

Post-war harnessEdit

Following the collapse of the Covenant empire, a number of post-Covenant warlords chose to don overly complex sets of armor - looking to fill the power gap left by the collapse of the empire or to reclaim a far older sense of honor.[2]

Jul 'Mdama's Covenant variantEdit

Commonly employed by the Commanders and Generals serving under Jul 'Mdama's Covenant, this harness design bears notable similarities to the Valiant Prudence variant.[3]
