Hello guys, i have dispute with fellow what does mean "Frontiersmen" ingame context. As a prooflink i sent him http://wiki.unknownworlds.com/ns2/Frontiersmen link with game scenario...
As conclusion we have two different opinions "what does mean Frontiersmen say", and based on that, make exactly translate. Frontiersmen used in context as conflict side (as Kharaa & Frontiersmen nor Aliens & Marines).
1-st opinion: men, who defend borders
2-nd opinion: space marine
Which version is correct guys? (or you can write your version)
p.s. its important for correct translating dont blame us

A frontier is a boundary or border, usually in the context of exploration or settlement of new areas. The US would have been called a frontier (when it was being stolen from the american indians). As would the unsettled regions of Alaska during the gold rush. Frontiersmen are people who live or work on the frontier; the early settlers and pioneers.
In NS the frontier is the expanding border of human colonization of space. The frontiersmen are the space marines who defend the frontier from the kharaa. There may be other space marines who are not defending the frontier, they are not frontiersmen.
Frontiersmen are the people who allow us to expand and grow stronger. Normally, that would be settlers, pioneers, people who build infrastructure such as railroads and such.
In NS, they're simply the soldiers trained by the TSF to respond to the Kharaa threat.
