9. How do I devour as an alien?

Drag/grab your target then click yourself. Be careful though, marines can reverse burst out of you if they wake up inside your stomach and have a knife. Everything will slowly die in your stomach so don't keep them there for too long.

10. Can I mutiny?

Do you have a valid reason for mutiny? And can you get 5 other people who will mutiny with you? If I PM them about the mutiny, will they say yes? If you can answer yes to all these questions, ahelp again and someone will authorize your mutiny shortly. Remember to give the Commander a chance to stand down instead of just shooting him.

No.

OR As a marine, will I be banned if I kill X player?

It is a custom preference for the map Whiskey Outpost (WO). If you have it set to yes, you may be chosen to become a Doctor or Commander on that map instead of a standard grunt.

15. What is the difference between Marksman and Recon?

Recon comes with a VP70 (or 88mod4 as its called now) pistol and a variety of ammunition. Marksman comes with a camo tarp which allows you to hide from Xenos. The tarp functions like a body bag but the sprite looks like a grass tile. Both sets are cosmetically different. Thanks spriters!
