Funny way to make marines fall into a trap, go STRAIT into the marine base, get 4-5 skulks to follow you, then go gorg. The marines will come up to you and A.Try to shoot you, or B.Try and knife you. While they are concetraited on you, the skulks rush in, then kill the stupid marines <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

my score sucked (because I died so much) but my other teamates score was massive. <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--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-->

thats usually a good way to defend hives

instead of the gorg hiding, let the gorg show himself and the skulk ambushes whichever marine coming to shoot the gorg.

this only works if theres some def chambers to heal the gorg up afterwards of course <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Thats a pretty hefty (13) cost in Res to be just throwing out the window, eispecially in early game where rushes make the most impact. Eispecially if the Aliens Res are maxed, the Res cost 13, plus up to 33 that the Gorge was carrying. 46 Res at any point during the game is a substantial setback.

When you die you don't lose all your resources.

13 res to finish off all the marines and thus having the time to kill more buildings (perhaps even portals, but you don't want to win that fast).

even if the commander uses distress, it'll still cost him 2 more.

And you're assuming you can survive long enough to actually start gestating int her marine base? What kinda crappy marines are you playng against? Besides, marines concnetrate their fire ANYWAY regardless of whether or not an aliesn is gestating. If you kill those marines it isn't because of your trick or whatever, it's because they can't aim, or you outnumbered them too much, or something else. Good marines won't let you live long enough for you to gestate.
