<b>anti-gorge</b>
when you run into a gorge save your primary ammo and pick him off with your pistol, if your out of ammo run at him with your kamikaze knife and slash him a few times, because gorge's are real slow and cant out run the marine tirents <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->

<b>envirement and tactical building</b>
dont do stupid things and build turrets right under or beside a lift where aliens come from! thats a giant lerk/gorge/fade target, they can throw there stuff down and hit you without getting shot at and hit!
make the turrets away from lifts so they have to jump down, they should get shot alot out of this even if they find a way to get out, and use tubes and stuff for your sentries as well, like tubes up high out of meelee range (dont use this til you have jetpacks!) its fun to see onos's getting confused because they dont know whats shooting at them
and its an easy way to get atleast a few injuries for the aliens <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
----------
<b>always have your troops travel in numbers!</b>
if a marine wonders off by himself give him an order to regroup, because even though there good scouts its stupid to see marines and frontiers men wonder off by themselves and get killed always have support and cover fire, like if you have 4 marines have two of them cover the builders because if your all building whats going to save you? 2 marines building is enough
----------
<b>hive assault</b>
when your a marine and you and your team are attacking a hive get your commander to build a seige turret group <b>COMING SOON TO A FACTORY NEAR YOU</b> uhm, i mean, like 3 seige turrets this will be very helpful on assault, and use grenade launchers excesivly grenade launchers can come in helpful for killing buildings, aliens and make the aliens scatter out so you dont run in and get yourselves killed, instead they will run into you and you'll shoot them... or you'll get EATEN ALIVE! which you dont want that <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo-->
and its a good idea to wait for the seige turrets to shoot atleast 12 shells first before rushing in just be be safe :|

<b>WHEN YOUR ALONE</b>
i hate being alone <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> well anyways, when your alone check your six (behind you) every few seconds to make sure nothing is following you, and dont stand right by doors when you start opening them or you might get bombarded by offense chambers or bit by the mean dog! now you wouldnt want that would you? <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> and use your pistol when your in a long hall instead of wasting your primary ammo trying to kill something on the other side, the pistol is a real reliable weapon, one you'll really need especially if your desprete (i know thats not spelled right)
<b>preserve resources!</b>
dont start placing weapons as soon as you get 30 resources! preserve it until you have 100+ because resources are the soul of the marines, so is a good commander and reliable marines but resources are real important, put resources more into upgrading and research and get motion tracking ASAP because motion tracking is most helpful for the troops in the field, motion tracking and lmg's should be good for awhile as long as the aliens dont have fades, then there kinda screwed in the field <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
<b>always keep contact with the commander in battle</b>
if the commander is in the middle of building and stuff and your in the field with your fellow marines, keep in contact of the situation like what your fighting (alien type) and how your doing, and if your troops start falling back try and get them to hold there position behind things until reinforcements or ammo and health comes in, dont fall back because that give the aliens a good chance of advancing and taking hives/resources
something you wont want to happen if they already have quite a number of resources <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
and make sure you have someone watch your 6 because aliens find a way to even get behind you <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

killing gorges can be quite annoying but its possible
and killing fades is very hard but its possible
and killing onos is extremely hard if you only have a pistol, knife and an lmg, but its possible
