Worms playing possum

In Response To: Re: Hunters don't make much sense. (Omega) : That makes sense, but on a creature that size, I think that it would be : necessary just to move around. If it was covered head-to-toe in all that : armor, there'd be no way for the creature to fight, or move. You could go : up behind it, melee it, and it would fall flat on it's face. I like the breathing idea. After all, they could just have chainmail over the flexible parts, or look at crab joints, they are weaker but still covered. Remember that Flood fighters would sometimes get up again for no apparent reason in Halo. But in H2 we found out that this happened because another infection form reanimated the 'corpse'. They probably just didn't have enough time to put the animation/ai for reanimation into the original Halo. Maybe there is still time to change Hunters in H3. Maybe H3 Hunters would fall aprt when massively damaged and the individual worms could come after you, or slither for cover. Maybe the worms could do as much damage as original Halo infection forms when your shields are down. Maybe they can gnaw away at your shields for longer as they wouldn't pop like infection forms would. They could play possum until you go over to melee or teabag the corpse, then catch you by surprise. That would be a shock!
