The Ranged Carrier Form is a type of Combat Carrier Form with the natural ability of mid to long range combat without the use of weapons. Two types have been encountered, the ODST and Elite Combat Carrier Forms. The Combat Carrier Form is a sentient being infected by the Flood Infection Forms and serves as a basic combat unit and transporting Infection Forms. However, when under the control of a Proto-Gravemind they can be coordinated and deadly. They are extremely dangerous, but can be easily defeated when alone or feral. Only one Proto-Gravemind is encountered in SPV3.Ī Flood Combat Form is a sentient being that has been infected by the Flood parasite via an Infection Form or Flood Spores, mutating the victim into a basic combat unit for use by the Flood.

The Proto-Gravemind, also known as the Proto-Compound Intelligence, is an advanced Flood form created from the biomass of the most intelligent living organisms available, with the ultimate goal of creating a fully-functional Gravemind. While they don't use a rank structure, there are a variety of types and Combat Forms. This powder was actually Precursor remains. The earliest known instance of the highly infectious viral super cell later known as The Flood form to be encountered came in a fine desiccated powder, contained in cylinders. They were first encountered in the Milky Way galaxy by an Ancient Human empire 10,000 years prior to the Forerunner-Flood war.

Also unlike carrier forms, they retain the arms of their host.

Unlike the other human combat forms in the UNSC Tactical Simulator, they have red clothes. While their upper body looks very similar to that of a normal carrier form, their lower body is more similar to that of a human combat form.
