    It spawns all dead marines in your base. You probably used it when none were dead or just one or two.

    Hrmmm I never thought of this until now but does it allow you to spawn them even if you don't have infintry portals up?! It makes sense because if not then you'd have 5marines spawning in only 2 places lol...

    Its posts like this that make me want to shout RTFM... still, I wont. Its nasty to shout at new guys even if they dont read manuals and the doctor said shouting is bad for me. Instead I will simply whisper that oh-so useful acronym into your innocent ear while dancing (or doncing, whichever you prefer) in a mysterious manner.

    yup. It spawns them at the original spawnpoints the players used at the very beginning of the match.

    Which can be bad if your original base is toast and you have a new one... heh
