    commonly found on the Voogru servers, the plugin allows a marine to take direct control ot a siege cannon. Sieges do hurt alien life forms, but only target automatically alien structures

    Eh? That sounds odd. I have yet to play with it though. Sounds kinda cheap.

    lol it is. But there is a delay and a skulk can take down two people before he "dies".

    Ahhh so thats why, I guess I'll keep the manuel seige thing in mind next time I play though it does sound cheap.

    Thier great for defending locations with 1 door but u have to bare in mind that if u fire it to close to yourself you kill the alien and you, as the siege blast does FF to you.

    It's not very good tbh.

    I've only seen it on ns_seige maps though, but it's impossible for the aliens to get out the door with this mod. I can only imagine it's similar on other maps.

    having never used it, i can only guess that you walk up to a siege, press use and then get use the crosshair to aim where the siege fires.

    Mods like this may be fun, but as you all suggest they are rarely balanced.

    One fairly balanced version of this is the old 'siege parasite' mod. Im not sure if this is still going, (nor where to find it, nor whether it works with NS2 or not,) but it was great fun. It simply replaced the skulk's parasite with the siege weapon, AND the marine's pistol with a siege weapon.

    Unforutnately this meant any group of three marines could take down a hive in seconds, and any group of skulks could do the same to a marine base. It totally ruins the game, but it is great fun.

    If anyone knows where to find the mod please post it. Ty.
