    IQ tests have "logic" questions with a right answer. Which not all questions on this have <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Combat situations don't always have 'right' answers. Half the questions I put in were to test things other than simple knowledge.

    The most common hive I put in as trivia. All the maps except Eclipse feature a hive in an engine location. Whether Bast's Engine, Nothing's Powersilo or Caged's Generator; those Kharaa really seem to like modern power generation equipment.

    The hive locations and weldable vent questions are about map knowledge. Ideally, the Comm knows the map like the back of his hand. Weld points, hive locations, routes to and from strategic points. These are all things a good commander will know and anticipate to help out his marines.

    The 4 man squad and 100 RP questions are to see if you have a goal in mind. Do you give marines what they <i>want</i> or what they <i>need</i>.

    Equipping the 3 man squad tests how "big picture" you look. Sure, it doesn't take much to drop 3 suits of Heavy Armor, but it takes a Prototype lab and several minutes of research just to get to that point. May seem obvious, but how many commanders have had to endure "GimmeHA/HMGkplzthx" two minutes into a match? You also probably have to drag marines off the front line to get them back to base in order to equip the suits.

    The Armory question tests miscellaneous knowledge. It's easy to overlook the fact your Armory shuts down and in the meantime your marines will be dependant on expensive ammo drops. Also, it no longer gives you the excuse of not having an upgraded Armory when you get HMG request spam. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The Onos evolution is a trick question. The correct answer is "Onos evolutions do not exist, because it is impossible for aliens to get enough hives."

    nice test... but...

    <b>

    </b>

    that'd be fine if the question was "How many hives does an Onos need to evolve?" but the question was "how many hives do they need before they evolve to Onos"

    or have I missed something <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You have 120 seconds. Good luck.

    What is the most combat effective 4 man squad?
    Depends on many situations to be honest. In the end I would like at least 2 with HA and HMG...one with a GL and one with a shotgun or another HMG, at least one should have a wielder and if an option one should have a jetpack if they are proficent with it

    What is the most common hive location?
    I don't...quite...know what you are asking, in most cases the first one is on the opposite side of the map from you I find.

    Map by map, name the hive locations:

    Nancy:

    Bast:

    Hera:

    Nothing:

    Caged:

    Tanith:

    Eclipse:
    I have not yet memorized these out side of the levels themselves. In game, I know them on each map, though I have not memorized or written down the names, it has not yet been nessosary.

    How much does it cost to equip a 3 man squad with Heavy Armor?
    after patch...75 RP's

    What is the most efficient combat use of 100 RP?
    Once again it depends on the situation, with that 100 I could barely equip 2 men with HMG's and HA. Sadly I would prefer about 3 men with shotguns and jetpacks and one with a GL but...one must adapt to the situation and men under his or her command.

    On what maps do weldable vents lead to the Marine spawn?
    So far in my expence I have seen at least 2...could be more but they have not yet been a problem

    What are the disadvantages of upgrading an Armory?
    During it's upgrading period my Marines cannot recieve ammo from it. It does not take long but requires me to be more attentive of my Marines so I can drop them more ammo when needed.

    How many hives do the Kharaa need before they can evolve to Onos?
    3, fortunatly.
