Alien RT's need no defense at all, they take forever to kill with a knife and any half-brained skulk will run for it at the prospect of eating a knife.weilding marine. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> Nobody's forcing you to take our your knife, crouch right next to the tower, and swing like a blind madman. If you can't deal with the occasional skulk coming along because of it, either bring backup, or hit the resourcer and wait for the skulks to arrive with your LMG out.
Furthermore, marine RTs can be recycled faster than a lone skulk can take them out--if the commander is attentive.
Accualy the chance that a welder will get caught by a skulk in time to save the RT is VERY low, mainly because a single welder hitting a RT will kill it so quickly skulks may not have even figured out exactly where the res nos was before it is down.
And I accualy roam for the random res if the comm is being too retarded to give instructions, probubly why I prefer being gorge, I just wander the map after I get the 2nd hive started and cap everything I find... Usualy by the time I start the 2nd hive I am ready to build the 3rd...
