The '''Gorgon''' was intended to be a [[Covenant]] anti-air oriented ground vehicle to appear in ''[[Halo Wars]]'', likely filling a similar niche to the [[UNSC]] [[M9 Main Anti-Air Tank]]. It used two sturdy legs to carry a bulky chassis, which was equipped with several [[Heavy Needler]]s, capable of shooting down enemy aircraft. It was eventually deleted in favor of the [[Vampire]] unit for two reasons: it created a recognition problem, confusing players as to whether it was infantry or a vehicle; and the Covenant had too many ground units already, and needed more air units. Its successor would retain the Heavy Needlers, but would receive several stasis-related abilities as well.
