| ||||
The S&W was the standard revolver for the marines. | |||||
Phase One: M39 Submachine Gun |
The M39 was a freshly designed submachine gun for the marines to use. Later on the sprite was improved upon nearing the end of pre-alpha.

File:Pre-Alpha M41A.png Phase One: M41A Pulse Rifle |
The M41A replaced the CR20 from Infestation Station and became the primary rifle for the marines. The Colt M1911 was additionally the predecessor to the M41A Mk2 Pulse Rifle. During the late stages of Pre-Alpha the sprite was improved upon.

Heavy Machine Gun |
The HMG was the backbone of the Marines during the Pre-Alpha stage. To use the HMG all you had to do was stand on the same tile as the HMG and make sure it was anchored down with a wrench, after that you just clicked on the enemy or a tile to fire. Do note that the HMG could only fire in straight bullet paths, though this did make it extremely useful for defending long hallways. One was available to each squad. |
Ammo Bag |
Previously used to store multiple magazines and shotgun shell boxes. One was available to each squad. |
