Marine Rush

<div class="IPBDescription">Works Very Good</div> On ns_caged almost all the time the aliens own the marines. But i was playing on www.guns4back2school.com (plug) And Found that rushing thier main hive is really effective. Based On Expirence, longer games go in favor of the aliens. And the games end up as, seeing how long the marines last. Well we found out what hive what they were in, took a welder (for ventalation) and a couple mines. Rushed in the hive and blew them away before they got any chamber or res. And if it fails it slows down the aliens quite alot because they dont get res for killing you. And if for some reason, it doesnt work. You can always back this up and have one guy go around the map capping res.

    Are you crazy? The longer the game lasts, the better chance the marines have of whipping out a crack-team of HA+Hmg to ronage the aliens hive after hive. I've seen it happen time and time again (on g4b2s.com (plug) <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> ). Most likely if the marines look like they are doing ****, it's because they are saving enough res to equip 8+ people at once. It works great, even against several onos as long as you have some normal lmgers ready to chase down the limpers. And of course, those weap upgrades are vital before any rush.

    300-400 res seems to be what I always save then I give everyone a HMG/HA/Welder combo. Then, it's over.

    As a fellow commander, I feel it is my responsibility to let you in on the fact that Aliens get resources for killing Marines just as Marines also get resources for killing Kharaa aliens. So I don't see how the breakdown of your strategy would slow the aliens down. They'd get a whole bunch of resources.. and you would have spent all of yours on...... mines, most of which would probably not have gotten placed with the popularity of sensory chambers. And the only consequence of that would be a complete obliteration of your chances of winning.

    I'v seen shotty rush work alot, but if you fail all your res is gone, also this worked in 1.X build as many IPs as you can and just RUSH RUSH RUSH wave after wave never stoping, you will win sooner or later because you can spawn in up to 8 people at a time they can only spawn one a time, this only works in big tames 8 people on marines and over to get the full effect.

    Maybe you should take after your name sake?

    Caged isn't that bad. You just have to control chokepoints. Or save and pray. Or be really creative (like a rush).
