[edit] Height of the infection form

I don't know but 88 centimeters or 2.9 feet is VERY high! I would say they are maximum 50 centimeters because 88 centimeters is just to high, that's only 12 centimeters to one meter! it's too high. can someone look for the right height of the Infection form?

[edit] Grunts/Jackals not compatible

There's a lot of stuff here saying that Grunts and Jackals cannot be infected. Just because it doesn't happen in game doesn't mean that they can't be; its even mentioned somewhere that Grunts CAN be infected, they just don't become combat forms. The only species mentioned to have insufficient calcium for the Flood are the Lekgolo.

It says in one of the books (I think) that the Jackals' low calcium (as low bone density) makes them unsuitable for Flood hosts. The Lekgolo are not able to be infected by Flood because they are a community of many organisms. Still, by the quality of the Notes sections on this site, this will likely never change. -Guest

Ah, that makes sense. I'm still pretty sure that it mentions Lekgolo as having insufficient calcium reserves as well, but that's just extra defense I suppose! The thing I thought I seemed to have read is that Jackals and Grunts are unsuitable combat forms, so go straight carrier forms, or at least, go through the combat form stage very very briefly.

Grunts and jackals are relitively weak compared to humans and elites, this would explain why infection forms seem to resist infecting them. Imagine a small, slow combat form with little melee power that is very weak.(Drone232 13:24, October 30, 2009 (UTC))

[edit] Comparison between Versions

Just wondering, it seems to me that the Flood Infection Forms in H:CE have much better textures than its successors (H2 and H3). Just try to compare between the three and you will notice a huge difference in texture... - ^H107_SubtleTank 16:05, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
