'''Pirate Militia''' are basic, expendable units of the [[Space Pirate|Space Pirate Organization]]. They were first commissioned around the events of ''[[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption]]'', before the [[Leviathan]] impact on the [[Pirate Homeworld]] and the Pirates' takeover by [[Dark Samus]]. Pirate Militia are based off of slaves and criminals from the Pirate Homeworld and are forced to participate in battle. Being among the lowest of the Space Pirate caste system, they obey their superiors with ease, and in return, gain survival and trust. If any disloyalty is sensed by a member of a higher Pirate rank, the Militia will either be killed or consumed by the other Pirates. The Militia are not equipped with [[Phazon Enhancement Device]] | '''Space Pirate Militia''' are basic, expendable units of the [[Space Pirate|Space Pirate Organization]].

Pirate Militia are based off of slaves and criminals from the Pirate Homeworld and are forced to participate in battle.

If any disloyalty is sensed by a member of a higher Pirate rank, the Militia will either be killed or consumed by the other Pirates. The Militia are not equipped with [[Phazon Enhancement Device Suit|Phazon Enhancement Devices]] like their superiors, however they have the ability to enter [[Hypermode]]. This is most likely caused by the initial [[Phazon]] takeover of the [[Space Pirate|Space Pirates]]. Pirate Militia are equipped with a weaker [[Arm Cannon]] than regular [[Pirate Trooper|Pirate Troopers]], but carry a retractable Scythe that is very similar to the higher-ranked Pirates. When battled by [[Samus Aran]], a [[Charge Beam|charged shot]] from the [[Power Beam]] or a [[Missile]] will easily kill a lightly-armored member of the Militia. | ||

==Trivia== | |||
* Hidden within the game's coding is unused logbook data for several Pirate Militia variants that are abesent from the final version of the game: the Advanced and Assault Pirate Militias<ref>Morphology: Advanced Pirate Militia. Expendable infantry units. Armor vulnerable to explosives. The additional armor of the Advanced Pirate Militia increases their resistance to Beam weaponry, but they remain vulnerable to explosive attacks. The Advanced Pirate Militia contains promoted soldiers from the Armored Pirate Militia. Once the pirate military is satisfied with a unit's performance, they will grant them a higher rank. With the promotion comes additional support in the form of an extra layer of ablative armor for combat.</ref><ref>Morphology: Assault Pirate Militia. Expendable infantry units. Armor vulnerable to explosive blasts. The heavy armorsuits of the Assault Pirate Militia provide adequate resistance to most weapon systems. This unit is the most skilled of all the militia forces. If able to prove themselves in combat, the pirate military will grant them admittance into the official army ranks.</ref>, both of which also have unused shield variants<ref>Morphology: Advanced Shield Militia. Battle shield deflects attacks, but can be pulled with Grapple Beam.The pirates in this militia unit wear an additional layer of ablative armor. Despite the added protection, the armorsuit is still vulnerable to explosive blasts. Their portable battle shield, while resistant to most small-arms fire, is also easily pulled off. Phazon-based attacks can also destroy the shield.</ref><ref>Morphology: Assault Shield Militia. Battle shield deflects attacks, but can be pulled with Grapple Beam. Members of this militia are well equipped. Their heavy armorsuit is resistant to most weapon systems, and their portable battle shield can withstand most small-arms fire. Their shields provide excellent protection, but are easily ripped from their arms. Phazon-based attacks can easily destroy the shield.</ref>. | |||
