Marine Techwebs

Overview

Marine Techwebs are unlockable upgrades that improve the overall effectiveness of the marines on the ground. In order to access them they must be deployed via orbital supply drop pods. The Squad Radio Telephone Operators will call them down, allowing marines to access different types of upgrades for themselves.
