This is, very roughly, a decent set up for the Marines end-game. It could probably have used two fewer Exo's, but it works on large 24 person servers. (Which I don't particularly care for, but sometimes they are the only servers with people on them.)

From memory it was 9v9.
I didn't see any macs with the first batch of exos. Macs would have been next to useless with bile out anyway.

Ah, there should have been 7-8 EXOs then. Skulks can chew down an EXO quite fast as we all know, you still need to have a lot of units. 4 exos, 2 gorges, a ton of bile, 6 skulks = rine fail. And keep them MACs coming, build continuously, trying not to push them too close, hence the need for EXOs to "step back" to get repairs.
