The Blight was the largest organizational subdivision within the military of the Locust Horde.[1][2][3] Roughly equivalent to the Human battalion, the Locust blight contained approximately three hundred soldiers; however, the exact composition of the three hundred differed between each blight and could include Drones, Grenadiers, Theron Guards, Corpsers, and Boomers among others.[4][5][6] Within the blight, these soldiers were further divided into smaller formations called packs, each of which possessed approximately six members and served as the Locust equivalent to squads.[7][8] The hierarchy within each blight consisted of a commanding officer referred to as a Vold and a second-in-command known as a Vurl; however, in some instances, the blight was commanded by a Krav.[9][10][11]
