I think I prefered those xenos, these are mroe you get stuck on walls and objects and clipping, you often cant run up a wall and on to the floor or in a lot of areas jump up you hit invisible walls. but spitter wit hrupture, just get close n let the marines take themselves out! I currently have a squad of ultimate badasses, there's 5 of us and we can win the evac game with out a single death as a marine and take out 9/10 teams before they get passed the first door as xenos so it's fun, multiplayers better than the single player i think as it has better atmosphere and presure. Rummors have it that SEGA pushed for more CoD game play >.<

Sweet. I just submitted my request for a Colonial Marines service number on Alien Legacy today. Also saw that one of their members is the guy who is making my armor set, so I got a warm fuzzy feeling, and sent him a PM saying "hi." Also PMed a member who may be able to hook me up with a screen accurate Pulse Rifle sling, if he's still making them. Also, managed to nab an appropriate era Gerber MkII on eBay, so things are starting to come together.

Bah! This is what happens when you don't allow the Ministry of Pants to rig your election by deploying pantsmandoes in key ballot centres.
Trooper, man.. Please don't do the thing with the knife :/

Please don't do the thing with the knife :/ I actually spent a considerable amount of time playing the knife game with a pencil throughout my years in high school. Got pretty good at it, IIRC, and only stabbed myself a couple of times.

Mind you, it's a lot harder when you're doing it with a blade because your squad mates urge you on and promise you beer afterwards. The beer before didn't help either.

So not only are you doing it, but you're doing it fast, drunk and in front of others? Just make sure to take a medi-kit for the FNP bonus save.

Well, it wasn't that fast, since I was drunk, but yes, in front of others. That's the whole point, isn't it? Vegna: Nah, still have all of my finger. I also have a small scar between my finger and thumb but that's something completly different...

Holy crap, the Gerber Mk II is awesome! I just used it to demolish two large boxes I used when I moved that I am putting out with the recycling tonight. Serrated edge sawed through their seams in no time flat! ;D

Trooper, great stuff going on here. I'm a huge CM fan. It's interesting that you say the Salco is a bit of a bad luck ship. As per the original book ( great read and lots on inside info) the entire squad was considered turd birds by the USMC and Company, LT Gorman was transferred into the squad the week prior to the mission. They were setup to fail. Because of you now I'm on the hunt for that book. Funny fact, not one bad word was used in the book!

Thanks, Jackal! The Technical Manual has some information revealing that high ranking officers in the USCMC were directly involved, due to having considerable amounts of W-Y stock in their retirement portfolios, in the decision to sacrifice Gorman et al. in hopes of W-Y getting their hands on some xenomorph samples.

also isn't most of the colonial progame W-Y tech and equipment?

Much of the colonization stuff is, yes. But the Marines get their weapons and armor from other sources, while W-Y keeps the best guns and armor for themselves (going by the game).
