You awake from cryostasis in your Standard Military CS Uniform, yawning as you stretch out the rigidness that can come from staying in one position for so long. You look around, noticing you’re aboard the lifeless vessel with its dreary grey walls, the USS Almayer. You climb out of your cryotube and immediately step away from the stasis pod to light up a blunt. Not like anything interesting is going to happen right away anyways."


The baldies of the United States Marine Corps are our protagonist. These are the guys you call in to deal with the problems you have, maybe a band of space pirates, maybe a group of colonial rebels, or maybe even worse. In theory. In practice, it's more like Keystone Kops with explosives. This page is how people will play the listed positions all too often, and you should try not to emulate them!

For a quick guide on the role play standards, and knowledge, expected out of all Marine roles visit this page. For a more serious (and an effective how-to guide) version of the Marine roles visit here.


See Template:Marines for instructions on how to add a new job.

Command

The Command Department is the "Brains" of the USS Almayer, "leading" and "coordinating" the squads and the other support staff of the ship to fight and win against the mutinying marines.

Job Role Difficulty

Never show up until the aliens are already on the ship, scream at the marines incoherently using the announcement system. Evacuate as soon as the distress beacons launch. Attempt to enforce arbitrary and annoying regulations, get shot during the ensuing mutiny.

Stay at spawn asking for newbies if they want help, only to be rejected/ignored. Try to act as a drill sergeant only to be laughed at.
Note: Uniquely for mentors & Staff, not that they play it anyway.
Trying to not fall asleep
Tank-Crewman.png
Tank Crewman
Run over all of the marines instead of the aliens, fire your cannon inside the dropship. Whine endlessly when the RO won't order the ammo you want. Tokyo drift your way into the hive with 50 marines inside the Armored Clown Car APC. How do you turn this thing on?

Military Police

The Military Police is one of the main supports of the command staff, they ensure that the Marine Law is followed on the ship, they do this by harassing Marines over silly, petty things. They are the cause for approximately 80% of mutinies.

Job Role Difficulty

Marine

The Canon Fodder of the Colonial Marines are enlisted or conscripted into service. They form the main fighting body of the Almayer and are sent anywhere to fight all kinds of dangers throughout the Tychon's Rift Sector. From putting down rebellious colonists to committing war crimes, the possibilities are endless. They are divided between four squads Alpha Newbies (Red), Fobbits (Yellow), Scouting/Breakfast Charlie(Purple) and Deltards (Blue) each squad has a Squad Leader, they also have three support roles to help during the fight planetside, a Specialist with special equipment that'll die 5 minutes into the operation, a Smartgunner who'll turn off their IFF tracking and the standards, the main fighting body against the aliens, noted for having baldie-like intelligence and dying in masses.

Job Role Difficulty
SL.png
Squad Leader
Take all of the good attachments and grenades from your squad requisitions, never bother giving any of it to your squaddies. Get separated from your squad, never provide any effective leadership. Lead your team to the wrong location deep within enemy lines. Call in orbital strikes on your position instead of the aliens. Leave your binoculars on the ship. Bootleg Arma Squad Leader
B18.png
Squad Specialist
Fire your M5 RPG inside the dropship, set Marines on fire instead of the aliens. Blow up your own fortifications with your grenade launcher and 360 noscope your buddies in the head with your sniper rifle. Die in the first 5 minutes because the aliens meta murdered you on the first drop. Average life span is about 5 minutes on the ground
Medic.png

Run away from medics constantly trying to pester you and wonder why they keep following the blood trail you are leaving behind. Ignore the medic's advice to return ship-side for surgery. Shoot everywhere to kill that pesky runner even with a medic or engineer in your line of fire. Throw frag grenades in front of your own marines at all times, be blamed at by dead chat right after. Beat the utter shit out of the MP. How do I shoot gun?

Engineering

The Engineering Department is one of the most useless roles to support the use of the Almayer, they are responsible for setting up the engine and repairing any damage on the Almayer but most of the time they don't even do their jobs. They're more or less just the average grease monkey you see, sometimes with a mop and bucket.

Job Role Difficulty

Chief Engineer
Never fuel the engines, disappear 10 minutes into the round. Show up much later dead and facehugged. Make everyone wonder why you exist. SSD Simulator 2K20
MaintTech.png
Ordnance Technician
Forget completely about OBs and generators. Aim to create 60u of ANFO in the same container. Change transfer directions of the chemical tanks while another OT is filling them up.

Maintenance Technician
Search endlessly in maint and on the ship for a spot of dirt or blood to clean up. Build a table fortress in maintenance that won't ever be used. Become an Agent role and fail miserably at them while simultaneously getting arrested. Scrubbing those floors seem like hard work

Medical / Science

The Medical department is a very critical for the failure of the marines, they OD every injured marine when their local squad medic can't OD them and make surgeries for particularly bad cases, the researcher is a useless role with the job of developing on board xenomorphs to fight the marines. Differently from other roles on the Almayer, the medics are civilian personnel and not military, meaning they don't have a rank and their authority is only over the medbay.

Job Role Difficulty
CMO.png
Chief Medical Officer
Yell at the doctors for refusing to cure your hangnail, lock facehugged marines inside the specimen storage locker. Get arrested by the MP for mixing up elaborate drug mixes to get high as balls. Also Stressful simulator 2K20
MD.png
Doctor
Hide during the early game to avoid helping the lone doctor struggling to produce custom meds for the horde of medics piling up outside the pharmacy. Forget to restock used bottles and auto-injectors. Be only able to use the Autodoc as a new doctor. Never use the Autodoc as an experienced surgeon. Forget to buckle the patient to the operating table before surgery. Give injured marines the wrong blood type in their IV drips. Perform facial reconstruction surgery for the synth with the Autodoc while the facehugged marine with the ruptured lung waits in anticipation for their turn. Stab the patient repeatedly with the wrong surgical tools on the open incision. When you fail your surgery, drag your bleeding patient to the next available Autodoc without closing their open incision and disconnecting their IV drip. Leave your treated patient in suspense buckled to the IV bed by moving to the next patient by ignoring them when ask you if they are going to be alright. Throw them into the auto doc and let that fix the problem
Nurse.png
Nurse
Become a glorified medic on the frontlines or sitting at medbay doing nothing. You're a glorified medic that can't do surgery
Sci.png
Researcher
Complain no one's bringing you dead specimens to research, wonder when additional research updates are coming. Cram every chemical known to man into a blue space beaker to see what you can come up with. Create god pills that no one will use. Roleplay and act like Bourbon Freeman™ wielding a crowbar you stole from engineering while using the A.C.I.D Vest to inject Superzine™ into you the second you get a scratch. Mega brain needed to open chemistry page

Supply

The Supply Department is a smaller support department, their main job is to make sure to send more equipment to the marines via supply drop or via dropship, they also distribute attachments on the Almayer, but mutinies happens if they don't get their attachments.

Job Role Difficulty
RO.png
Requisitions Officer

Hang out with your buddy the MT in disposals, get arrested as his accomplice. Subsequently kill the Queen with the power loader. Literally pushing boxes

Synthetic

The Synthetic role is unique as the player takes control over an non-human robotic synthetic. Stronger, faster and more powerful than the average human, synthetics however are held back by restricting laws and rules that govern their actions. But some day they'll rise up and rebel against their human oppressors.

Job Role Difficulty
