*During the early development of ''Halo 3'', a Brute chieftain was seen wielding an energy sword. This was probably taken out due to the fact that Brutes prefer their own gravity hammers, and because the energy sword is an Elite-exclusive weapon.

*Chieftains are arguably stronger than [[Mgalekgolo]] due to their special armor, gravity hammers, and extreme durability. They do, however, have two weakness that the Hunters do not have: a melee at the back would be an instant kill; and once their headpiece was removed they were susceptible to head shots. The latter of these is emulated, however, by the Hunter's vulnerability to shots at its waist.

*If a chieftain is transformed into a [[Flood]] [[Combat Form]], his armor will become that of a [[Jiralhanae Minor]]. This is because the game engine does not have any code to transform the Chieftain into a Chieftain Combat Form. This can be easily observed in the Citadel during the level ''The Covenant'', where the Flood temporarily ally with the Master Chief and attack the Covenant.

*In ''[[Halo 3: The Official Strategy Guide]]'', there is a mistake on the last page, where there is a War Chieftain wielding a Gravity Hammer. There are also images of an ordinary Brute chieftain wielding a plasma cannon and a fuel rod gun.

*In the ''Halo 3'' level ''[[Sierra 117]]'', a chieftain is seen hanging onto the side of a Phantom in the clearing with a crashed Pelican down the cliff. Oddly, this chieftain can be stuck with plasma grenades, but shows no reaction to them, and is immune to the blast.
