Introduction

(Note - This guide assumes that you have read the Marine Quickstart Guide and wish to know how to be a better Marine.)

Playing the Marine

Your Squad

• The Squad Leader is your normal highest rank in the field that gives you orders. It's generally your number one priority to drag them to safety at all costs with Grab intent if they are knocked down, since they can get you some fun toys to play with (e.g. guns, explosives, airstrikes).

• The Squad Specialist carries heavy weaponry and acts as second in command to the Squad Leader. If they go down, drag them back immediately unless the Squad Leader is also down, or your squad will likely lose access to the Specialist's weapon FOREVER. (such as from being melted by xeno scum)

• The Squad Smartgunner acts as third in command. Listen to them if both the Squad Leader and Squad Specialist go down, and make sure that they stay behind you at all times (they can shoot through you safely thanks to IFF).

• The Squad Engineer is one step above you and typically plays a role in building defences and sentry guns. Listen to their advice, don't block their way when they're trying to build, and cover them with your life: you'll thank them later when you have to hold the Forward Operating Base (FoB) from a few dozen xenomorphs.

• The Squad Medic is one step above you as well, with their goal being to keep the squad healed up. Try to lighten their load by running corpses/wounded back to the FoB/the triage area for them and trying not to be too reckless in battle, or they might be too overwhelmed by 12+ marines needing a fix to help you.

• Your comrades-in-arms are the Squad Marines. Use them as meat shields, never move in a group less than yourself and another Marine, and try to stay out of a marine's line of fire if you like living a long life.
