Who am I?
Hi, I'm Sargeantmuffinman, the current wiki maintainer that will add various things to areas of the wiki.
I mainly work on the marine side of things and will do general grammar changes to here and there. If other things are needed then I'll usually be the person for it.
This will also be a place for where I test wiki code.
Note worthy things
If you're uploading a new image from the map and want to add text. The font we use is city light.
To-Do List
Add that one last image/gif of the research document
Create a set of video tutorials on each and every occupation that is non-whitelisted.

Squad Marine Sub Roles
Marine kits allow you to acquire a set of equipment from your Colmartech Automated Closets at the cost of 45 points. These sub roles give you access to an array of weapons, support equipment and utilities. Some are specifically made for certain purposes. Like the First Response Medical Support kit, it gives you access to medical equipment and the ability to use more medical items efficiently though not as well as your designated squad counterparts.
Combat Technician
The Combat Technician kit offers you the knowledge and abilities to construct metal barricades, barbed wire and tools to help fortify locations.
You are given knowledge on how to repair and construct metal barricades and use C4. This allows you to be more versatile in the battlefield when the need to breach or fortifying is needed.
First Response Medical Support
The first response medical support kit gives you access to knowledge on the effective use of auto-injectors, pill bottle access and a limited amount of medical supplies. You'll be more effective in the use these medical items allowing you to heal other wounded marines in the absence of qualified medical personnel.
Frontline M40 Grenadier
The frontline M40 Grenadier kit provides you access with a belt of explosives, containing the 3 common grenades in the marine arsenal. These explosives are used in tandem with the underslung grenade launcher or they can be hand thrown if you wanted to.
L42 MK1 Sniper Loadout
The L42 MK1 Sniper kit offers you attachments to modify the L42 Pulse Carbine MK1 into an effective designated marksman rifle. This allows you to engage enemies farther away from your usual field of view.
The M240 Pyrotechnician
The M240 Pyrotechnician kit gives you access to the uncommon M240 flamethrower with a spare fuel tank and USCM technician welding pack to refill your flamethrower. The flamethrower will allow you to effectively clear enemy encampments and also providing a weapon for area of deniel. Additional, the kit comes with fire extinguishers to extinguish fires on the ground as well as any friendlies.
JTAC Radio
The JTAC radio kit gives you access to the JTAC radio channel along side a pair of tactical binoculars, signal flares and a flare gun with a holster for it. Being a JTAC operator means you'll be coordinating with dropship pilots and other fire support assets to launch strikes against enemy positions. You'll be mainly coordinating with the close air support dropship to launch devastating airstrikes against entrenched hostiles.
In The Field
When you've deployed to the combat zone you're going to need evaluate the battlefield for key points to call for an airstrike, mortar strike or orbital bombardment. When finding targets, you must take into account which support is available to you, when they'll be ready and the delay between you call for the strike and the time of impact.
Your primary tool you'll be using to co-ordinate these strikes will be the tactical binoculars and the JTAC encryption key :j.
When lasing a tile you must use the tactical binoculars on the red laser mode. Firstly you must activate it in your hand to zoom out to have a wider field of view. The direction you face will determine where your field of view expands, e.g facing north will expand your field of view north. To finally lase the tile you want, simply ctrl+click the tile.
Tactical Binocular Different Modes:
Rangefinder Mode: After Ctrl + Clicking the desired target a green laser will appear after which that tiles Longitude and Latitude coordinates will be displayed in chat. Coordinates used for Mortars and Orbital Bombardments
CAS Mode: After Ctrl + Clicking the desired target a red laser will appear from which any pilot doing a flyby mission can select this mark as a CAS target.
When you're calling for an airstrike it is best to first contact the dropship assigned to provide close air support on the JTAC channel that you're requesting air support. It's best to confirm that your response has been received and that wait until the dropship is in the air. Once they confirm they're in the sky, you may begin to laze the tile.
You will need to assess the place you're lazing with the follow questions:
Where is the enemy?
What offsets and directions do I need to relay to the CAS pilot?
Is there a way for the enemy to escape?
Will the airstrike reach the target in time?
Has the enemy moved from where you want to strike?
Are there any friendlies in the area and will they be caught in the blast radius?
Is the place I want to airstrike in the viewable by the pilot or is it obscured?
(Optional) What are the weapons dropship is equipped with.
Etc.
There are more variables in the equation but these are the most common of which you'll need to learn.
Field Intelligence
The field Intelligence kit revolves around collecting documents, retrieving items and scouring the area of operations to find data disks to lower the DEFCON threat level. You're equipped with a document pouch for storing said documents and data disks. In addition to this, you'll be given access to the special Intel channel as well as a pack of Fulton recovery devices to retrieve the fallen as well as alien corpses for study.
Wondering if the below sub classes are really needed
Forward HPR Shield
The forward HPR shield kit provides you with the powerful heavy pulse rifle along side a deployable barricade. This kit revolves around the rapid deployment of the barricade to quickly provide rapid fire support with the HPR. If modified with a quickfire adapter and bipod, it'll give a substantial boost to its fire rate when deployed.
M39 Pointman
The M39 Pointman kit provides the limited submachine gun arm brace for the M39. This allows the effective use of using the SMG with one hand. The kit also comes with a machete for the off hand. This combination allows the user to clear the way for other marines with the machete while also being able to defend themselves effectively.
M-OU53 Sapper
The M-OU53 sapper support kit provides the limited break action shotgun along side the old M15 frag grenade and some grenades. The break action is primarily used as an alternative to the standard M37 for a better fire rate as well as accuracy. Though it can't use buckshot shells, it is quite lethal in using the slugs and flechette shells.
Section 4
Using the Tank
This is where I would write the guide for using the tank, IF I HAD TIME.
Choosing your loadout
The tank has 3 primaries and secondary armaments, a choice between 4 support modules to equip the tank and 5 different kinds of armor. You can only choose one of each category. There a multiple combinations of to choose from but the most common are the most successful in the field of battle.
Loadout 1
STUFF:
Equipment:
Description:
AC3-E Autocannon
The AC3-E Autocannon is a primary armament for the tank. It fires explosive flak rounds that decimate enemy combatants within a tight area, damaging anyone in range with its flak. Holding 40 flak rounds in its magazine, you won't be frequently reloading, but do keep an eye on your ammunition count.
Secondary Flamer Unit
A heavily modified incinerator unit made for tanks, uses standard incinerator fuel and sets the enemy and your surroundings on fire. The secondary flamethrower unit excels at warding unwanted guests near your tank. Best used to deter any hostile from getting close to the tank.
Artillery Module
Enables the gunner to see further. Similar to binoculars in function. Though the Artillery module doesn't see as far as standard issue binoculars.
An M4A3 Service Pistol, the standard issue sidearm of the Colonial Marines. While it is reliable in the arms of a crewmember, it is best used as a fallback weapon in case if a one doesn't have any more ammo. Fires 9mm pistol rounds.
This is one of the three handguns that the marines have stocked in their combat prep vendors.
All Cargo Technicians start with one.
Holds nine (9) 9mm pistol rounds. Has lower overall penetration but better damage. Smartgunner belts come with one magazine. More can be obtained through the Surplus Ammo Crate which can be ordered by Requisitions.
Holds nine (9) 9mm pistol Incendiary rounds. Will set ablaze any and all targets hit with this round. Obtainable through the Surplus supply crate in Requisitions.
Holds nine (9) 9mm pistol cluster rounds. Designed to attach tiny explosives to targets, to detonate all at once when more than 15 cluster bombs are attached to the target.
Holds nine (9) 9mm pistol Toxin rounds. Temporarily lowers alien armour through every hit with a maximum of 75 toxin applicable. Once the toxin level is above their armour, they will receive full damage from all sources.
A rapid-fire sidearm issued mainly to company response teams, but also issued to the USCM in small numbers. Based on the original VP70 more than a century ago. Fires 9mm armor piercing pistol rounds and is capable of 3-round burst. It rivals the M4A3 service pistol in capacity, armor penetrating ammunition and its burst fire mode, but loses it in raw damage.
This is one of the three handguns that the marines have stocked in their combat prep vendors and is issued to the Corporate Liaison for self defense. It is also a standard sidearm for Corporate PMCs.
Holds eighteen (18) incendiary rounds. Will set ablaze any and all targets hit with this round. Obtainable through the Surplus supply crate in Requisitions.
Uses the same calibre bullets as the M4A3, allowing you to refill it using bullets from an Incendiary M4A3 Magazine.
Holds eighteen (18) cluster rounds. Designed to attach tiny explosives to targets, to detonate all at once when more than 15 cluster bombs are attached to the target.
Uses the same calibre bullets as the M4A3, allowing you to refill it using bullets from an cluster M4A3 Magazine.
Holds eighteen (18) Toxin rounds. Temporarily lowers alien armour through every hit with a maximum of 75 toxin applicable. Once the toxin level is above their armour, they will receive full damage from all sources.
Applies 10 toxin per hit.
Uses the same calibre bullets as the M4A3, allowing you to refill it using bullets from an Toxin M4A3 Magazine.
A bulky revolver, occasionally carried by assault troops and officers in the Colonial Marines, as well civilian law enforcement. Fires .44 Magnum rounds. It's usually held in speed-loaders, and holds a maximum of 7 bullets.
This is one of the three handguns that the marines have stocked in their combat prep vendors.
Holds seven (7) cluster.44 rounds. Designed to attach tiny explosives to targets, to detonate all at once when more than 15 cluster bombs are attached to the target.
Holds seven (7) Toxin .44 rounds. Temporarily lowers alien armour through every hit with a maximum of 75 toxin applicable. Once the toxin level is above their armour, they will receive full damage from all sources.
The Armat Battlefield Systems M-39 submachinegun. Occasionally carried by light-infantry, scouts, engineers and medics. A lightweight, lower caliber alternative to the various Pulse weapons used the USCM. Fires 10x20mm rounds out of 48 round magazines. No movement speed penalty while wielded.
The M39 uses 10x20mm SMG rounds, and holds 48 bullets with an optional 4-round burst fire mode.
A 10x20mm caseless high-velocity submachinegun magazine. Powerful propellant allows the bullet increased velocity and minor penetration capabilities, noticeably improving its efficacy at medium ranges, although it still suffers significantly compared to a rifle bullet.
A 10x20mm caseless armour-piercing submachinegun magazine. The bullet tips are made out of high-density material, allowing them to pierce straight through armour, but also reducing the raw stopping power and velocity of the ammunition.
Holds forty eight (48) 10x20mm AP rounds. Has better armour penetration, but lower overall damage.
A 10x20mm caseless cluster submachinegun magazine.
Holds forty eight (48) 10x20mm cluster rounds. Designed to attach tiny explosives to targets, to detonate all at once when more than 15 cluster bombs are attached to the target.
Holds forty eight (48) 10x20mm Toxin rounds. Temporarily lowers alien armour through every hit with a maximum of 75 toxin applicable. Once the toxin level is above their armour, they will receive full damage from all sources.
This is the standard issue pulse rifle used by the Colonial Marines. A reliable, robust and overall effective standard issue weapon, the M41A must be held in two hands to accurately fire. Unlike the M41A MK1, which holds 95 rounds, the MK2 holds only 40 rounds but offers the user greater capabilities to customize their weapon with attachments. The M41A MK2 has 3-round burstfire capabilities as well as a standard-issue UGL which starts unloaded, but can be loaded and reloaded with grenades (ask RO for grenades). Chances are, the M41A MK2 might jam and will fail to fire for a second, though very rare.
A non-standard alternative to the standard issue M41A-MK2 available to the jarheads of the USCM. Renowned for its high accuracy and superior stopping power compared to other rifles. Can very quickly change barrel attachments. Due to its superior accuracy, all shots, regardless of range, will have no loss in velocity. Holds 25 rounds in a standard magazine.
Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm rifle rounds. Uses the same calibre bullets as standard M41A magazines, so it can be refilled using bullets from standard M41A magazines.
Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm AP rifle rounds. Has better armour penetration, but lower overall damage. Uses the same calibre bullets as armour piercing M41A magazines, so it can be refilled using bullets from armour piercing M41A magazines.
Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm incendiary rifle rounds. Will set ablaze any and all targets hit with this round. Uses the same calibre bullets as incendiary M41A magazines, so it can be refilled using bullets from incendiary M41A magazines.
Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm cluster rifle rounds. Designed to attach tiny explosives to targets, to detonate all at once when more than 15 cluster bombs are attached to the target.
Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm Wall Piercing rifle rounds. Able to penetrate through up to 6 solid non-indestructible walls and people/aliens alike. Uses the same calibre bullets as Wall Piercing M41A magazines, so it can be refilled using bullets from Wall Piercing M41A magazines.
Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm Toxin rifle rounds.Temporarily lowers alien armour through every hit with a maximum of 75 toxin applicable. Once the toxin level is above their armour, they will receive full damage from all sources. Uses the same calibre bullets as Wall Piercing M41A magazines, so it can be refilled using bullets from Wall Piercing M41A magazines.
An Armat Battlefield Systems Shotgun utilized by USCM Marines. This weapon is powerful in close quarters combat and is capable of killing even the strongest of hostile targets. Due to its sheer power, the M37A2 is capable of stunning even the mighty Alien when fired from close range, but users should still keep in mind that the M37A2 must be pumped after every shot. There is no default hotkey for pumping the shotgun, though you can set up one as a Macro.
Single Slug Projectile. Effective in ranged combat. Armor Piercing. Heavy damage. Stuns and knocks back humanoid mobs for about 1 second out to 6 tiles. It will slow down enemies hit by it and will prevent them from swapping abilities for a second. Holds 25 shells.
Fires multiple small projectiles. Deals massive damage up close, knocks back and stuns humanoid mobs for a random duration out to 2 tiles. Fires in a 15-degree radius. Use harm intent and click on xenomorphs directly next to you to point blank them, it will cause all of the 4 buckshot pellets to land. Holds 25 shells.
Single Slug Projectile. Will set ablaze any targets it hits and slightly damages everyone else around them. Can be found in certain planetside armouries such as the Armoury on Solaris Ridge, Fiorina Science Annex and in the Surplus Ammo Crate. Holds 25 shells.
Single Slug Projectile. Will cause pain to any human targets it hits, used for non-lethal takedowns. It does 0 damage but causes pain crit. Only found in the brig armory. Holds 25 shells.
Fires multiple shrapnel projectiles. Projectiles fan out in a cone 5 tiles in width out to a distance of 7 tiles. Consequently deals massive damage out to ~2 tiles, heavy to moderate damage out to ~3-5 tiles, and light damage at ~7 tiles. Doesn't stun or knock back. Holds 25 shells.
The standard issue bayonet knife issued to Colonial Marines. A sharp cutting tool that can be hidden in your marine combat boots or held in your teeth (Mask slot). Very useful for cutting through materials as well as grass, but it should only to be used as a last resort against enemies. Can be attached to weapons that allow bayonets on the muzzle.
Latest issue of the USCM Machete. Unlike the Survival Knife, this can not slide on to marine boots, but it can fit on to your waist. Great for clearing out jungle or brush on outlying colonies. Found commonly in the hands of scouts and trackers, but difficult to carry with the usual kit. It comes with a scabbard which can fit on to your back, belt or armor. Cuts vegetation in one hit, as opposed to the M5 Bayonet.
Commonly found in requisitions and the Automated closets of most marines.
A high power sniper rifle, this weapon deals a considerable amount of damage per bullet and is capable of attacking and hitting targets at extreme ranges, additionally it has in-built IFF meaning that it can be fired past USCM and corporate personnel without having to worry about friendly fire. It comes equipped with a high power scope allowing the user a wide range of vision. For drawbacks, this weapon is limited to fifteen rounds per magazine, a very obvious and loud firing noise, and the fact that it is wholly ineffective in close range combat as bullets fired too close to the user will miss.
This is only available for Specialists using the Sniper Loadout.
Holds fifteen (15) 10x28mm Flak sniper rounds. Upon impact with the target, the round will have an Area of Effect, hitting other nearby targets near the original.
Aimed Shot: 108 Damage, slow down and no flak AOE.
The grenade launcher is a two-handed weapon that can hold and fire up to five grenades of any variety. The most lethal aspect of the grenade launcher is the stunning effect it has on even larger versions of an Alien.
This weapon is only available for Specialists using the Heavy Grenadier Loadout.
This weapon is able to fire through marines and aliens alike, allowing it to bombard the enemy.
This weapon has a minimum range of two tiles in front of you, if you try and fire at a closer range you will not be able to.
An outdated USCM Fragmentation Grenade. With decades of service in the USCM, the old M15 Fragmentation Grenade is slowly being replaced with the slightly safer M40 HEDP. It is set to detonate in 4 seconds. Slightly better radius than the M40 HEDP.
They're only available in by ordering Explosives crates from Cargo.
Exploding in a 5x5 radius, these Grenades also have the potential to damage nearby walls. Take care when using near structures leading to space or even near your own marines!
Both the Demolition Specialist and Heavy Grenadier Specialist have these grenades in their vendors at round start. More can be ordered in Cargo.
Explodes in a 5x5 blast radius with a large shrapnel range. High-Explosive Fragmenting-Antipersonel. A small, but deceptively strong fragmentation grenade that has been phasing out the M15 fragmentation grenades alongside the M40 HEDP. Extremely lethal near the epicenter of the explosion. Capable being loaded in the M92 launcher, or thrown by hand.
Exploding in a 5x5 radius, incendiary grenades are a powerful area of denial weapon that can deal immense damage to a hostile target if it's caught in the fire. The difference with this grenade is that its effects linger for a while making it useful in keeping Aliens back.
Combat Engineers start with 2 of these in their vendors at round start. Corporate Commando Units start with one as well.
Exploding in a 30 degrees directional cone with concentrated jagged shrapnel. M74 - Airburst Grenade Munition - Fragmentation. This grenade must be launched with a grenade launcher, and detonates once it reaches its destination. It disperses jagged shrapnel in a cone in front of itself, tearing through sinews and armor alike. Dispersion pattern is optimized against large target. Suffers from overpenetration on a direct hit.
You get six of these in a rig. Order more via cargo or your vendor.
Exploding in a 60 degrees directional cone with concentrated flaming shrapnel spread and a cone of fire. M74 - Airburst Grenade Munition - Incendiary. This grenade must be launched with a grenade launcher, and detonates once it reaches its destination. It disperses a cone of lingering flames in a small area in front of it. The warped pieces of the grenade can also set fire as they fly away.
You get three of these in a rig. Order more via cargo or your vendor.
A large custom grenade developed by the Ordnance Technicians. Explosive power varies depending on the payload they made. Maximum explosive potential is larger than the standard issue M15s the casing is modelled from.
A reloadable, single shot RPG. This weapon carries the most powerful ordnance available to marine infantry in the form of either High Explosive, Armor Piercing, or White Phosphorus 84mm rockets. Operators should keep in mind that M5 RPG ammo is scarce, while the launcher itself can be unwieldy to deploy and take a few seconds to be ready to fire from a resting position. Operators should also keep in mind that the Almayer's M5 RPG model is reusable, but lacks an auto-tracking feature.
By default, the M5 RPG comes loaded with an HE rocket, it can be unloaded if needed.
This is only available for Specialists using the Demolitionist Loadout.
Deals high damage to soft targets on direct hit and stuns most targets in a 5-meter wide area for a short time. Has decreased effect on heavily armoured targets.
Deals average damage to target on direct hit. Affects most of armoured targets due to increased penetration characteristics. Deals very little to no splash damage. Inflicts guaranteed stun to most targets. Has high accuracy within 7 meters, that drastically drops beyond that range.
Has two damaging factors. On hit disperses X-Variant Napthal (blue flames) in a 4-meter radius circle, ignoring cover, while simultaneously bursting into highly heated shrapnel that ignites targets within slightly bigger area.
An experimental designated marksman rifle of the USCM. Has a relatively slow rate of fire but deals slightly more damage per round while also possessing a functional burst fire mode. Uses special A19 high velocity rounds.
This is only available for Specialists utilizing the Scout Loadout.
An extended magazine of 10x24mm rounds for use in the M4RA battle rifle. Holds thirty five (35) 10x24mm rifle rounds. Available through the black market crates.
A magazine of incendiary 10x24mm rounds for use in the M4RA battle rifle. Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm Incendiary rifle rounds. Will set ablaze any and all targets hit with this round.
A magazine of high explosive armor piercing 10x24mm rounds for use in the M4RA battle rifle. Holds twenty five (25) 10x24mm high explosive armor piercing rifle rounds.
A variant of the M240 Incinerator that was developed with extensive usage in mind and as such it's compatible with much larger incinerator tanks as well as two experimental fuel types: B and X each with their own set of unique attributes. The M240-T additionally allows for the usage of the M240's Incinerator tanks, so you never have to worry about running out of fuel during an operation. For the ability to swap between fuel tanks on the fly, you must have the Broiler-T flexible refueling system equipped in order to use it. Otherwise you can load it like a normal flamethrower.
This is only available for Specialists using the Pyrotechnician Loadout.
Holds two hundred and fifty units (250) worth of ultra thick napthal. This will set ablaze any and all targets hit. Has a range of five (5) tiles and will deal thirty (30) damage a second.
Holds two hundred and fifty (250) units of Napthal Fuel type B.
A large fuel tank of Ultra Thick Napthal Fuel type B, a wide-spreading sticky combustable liquid chemical that burns up fast with a low temperature, for use in the M240-T incinerator unit. Handle with care. Will deal fifteen (15) damage a second.
Holds two hundred and fifty (250) units of Napthal Fuel type X. Utilises X-Variant Napthal which is a lot stronger than its counterparts and has a longer range. Has a range of six (6) tiles and will deal forty (40) damage a second.
A large fuel tank full of heavier gel fuel. Unlike its liquid contemporaries, this stuff shoots far, and burns up fast. Handle with exceptional care. Holds two hundred (200) units worth of gel fuel. Will deal (15) damage a second before instantly extinguishing.
This version of the Mateba revolver is a limited edition produced for the USCM, and issued in extremely small amounts. Was a mail-order item back in 2172, and is highly sought after by officers across many different battalions. This one is stamped Major Ike Saker, 7th 'Falling Falcons' Battalion. This autorevolver (as well as its other variants) has a special execution attack that can be achieved by firing point blank into a human target as long as the target is still. It comes with a customization kit to change to one of the three specialized barrels if the commander sees fit.
A formidable .454 speedloader, made exclusively for the Mateba autorevolver. Packs a devastating punch. This standard-variant is optimized for anti-armour.
A formidable .454 speedloader, made exclusively for the Mateba autorevolver. Packs a devastating punch. This high impact variant is optimized for anti-personnel. Don't fire this at anyone you want to stay alive.
A formidable .454 speedloader, made exclusively for the Mateba autorevolver. There's an impact charge built into the bullet tip. Firing this at anything will result in a powerful explosion. Use with EXTREME caution.
A bulky combat revolver. The handle has been polished to a pearly perfection, and the body is silver plated. Overall, a slightly better version of the standard issue revolver in terms of damage and accuracy. Fires .44 Magnum rounds. Carried by Senior Enlisted Advisors and Requisition Officers.
Holds seven (7) cluster.44 rounds. Designed to attach tiny explosives to targets, to detonate all at once when more than 15 cluster bombs are attached to the target.

A massive, formidable automatic handgun chambered in 9mm rounds and contains 14 squash-head pistol rounds in the magazine. In addition, this sidearm has 2-burst capabilities. It can be found in the Personal Self Defense kits in the ColMarTech Automated Closets.
Holds eighteen (18)) 9mm cluster squash-head pistol rounds. Designed to attach tiny explosives to targets, to detonate all at once when more than 15 cluster bombs are attached to the target.
Holds eighteen (18) 9mm Wall Piercing squash-head pistol rounds. Able to penetrate through up to 6 solid non-indestructible walls and people/aliens alike.
Holds eighteen (18) 9mm Toxin squash-head pistol rounds. Temporarily lowers alien armour through every hit with a maximum of 75 toxin applicable. Once the toxin level is above their armour, they will receive full damage from all sources.
This special variant of the M4A3 Pistol has an ivory-colored grip and has a slide carefully polished yearly by a team of orphan children. Looks like it belongs to a low-ranking officer. It is slightly better than the M4A3 Service Pistol in terms of statistics, in terms of damage and accuracy.
Holds nine (9) 9mm pistol rounds. Has lower overall penetration but better damage. Smartgunner belts come with one magazine. More can be obtained through the Surplus Ammo Crate which can be ordered by Requisitions.
Holds nine (9) 9mm pistol Incendiary rounds. Will set ablaze any and all targets hit with this round. Obtainable through the Surplus supply crate in Requisitions.

Holds nine (9) 9mm pistol Toxin rounds. Temporarily lowers alien armour through every hit with a maximum of 75 toxin applicable. Once the toxin level is above their armour, they will receive full damage from all sources.
The SU-6 Smartpistol is an IFF-based sidearm currently undergoing field testing in the Colonial Marines. Uses modified .45 ACP IFF bullets. Capable of firing in bursts. Found in the Experimental Trooper Kits located in squad requisitions or requisitions itself.
A limited flare gun issued to JTAC operators to use with standard flares. Operators used flare guns since the 20th century for signal flares or SOS signals from a large distance. Cannot be used with signal flares. Comes with a miniscope pre-attached to the weapon. One shot, one... life saved?
A red USCM issued flare. There are instructions on the side, it reads 'pull cord, make light'. But in this case, load it into the flare gun. This cannot be used in lit or dead flares. It can be used to light up enemies. Last for roughly 10 minutes.
A green USCM issued signal flare. The telemetry computer works on chemical reaction that releases smoke and light and thus works only while the flare is burning. Used to signal for CAS.
The most complicated weapon available to a marine. It has an impressive 500 round ammo pool to draw from the 500 round drum magazine. It also has an optical infrared sensor allowing great visibility in low-light conditions, deals a good amount of damage per bullet with an extremely high rate of fire with burst fire capabilities. The coup de grace being that due to the gun's toggle-able complex targeting algorithms each bullet will not hit any fellow marine due to the enabled IFF tracking. This allows a Smartgun operator to fire freely through a group of marines without fear of hitting them. The Smartgun requires a special harness to lift.
The Smartgun has several different options for the operator to configure:
Smartgun Modes:
Description:
Accuracy Improvement
Modifies the smartgun to fire more accurately at targets.
Power usage: Low
Ammo Type
Swaps the ammunition type the gun will be firing. It swaps from standard high precision munitions to armor shredding munitions.
Power usage: None
Auto Fire
Enables the ability to occasionally fire at hostile targets automatically without you directly clicking on them. You must be facing the enemy to be able for it to work.
Power usage: High
Lethal Mode
Toggles the ability for the smartgun's bullets to hit friendlies or not.
Forces it to use High Precision rounds.
Power usage: None
Motion Detector
Toggles the inbuilt motion detector that scans the area for hostiles.
Power usage: Low
Recoil Compensation
Modifies the smartgun to adjust for recoil, allowing it to nullify the screen shake when firing.
Carries five hundred (500) Smartgun rounds that passes through friendlies by an IFF (Identify Friend/Foe) system.This one is a drum magazine that can be reloaded similar to standard issue firearms. Click on the smartgun with the Drum magazine. Once loaded in you'll be able to fire five hundred rounds (500) without stopping.
A unique corporate made semi-automatic shotgun with a rapid fire rate and an attached Underslung Grenade Launcher. Holds 8 shotgun shells in the chamber.
Can be found in the Military Police armory and each department's Red Alert armory. A few can be found in various planetside armories as well, notably Solaris Ridge's Lambda Labs, Prison Station's Research Armory, and Corsat's Security Department Armories.
Single Slug Projectile. Effective in ranged combat. Armor Piercing. Heavy damage. Stuns and knocks back humanoid mobs for about 1 second out to 6 tiles. It will slow down enemies hit by it and will prevent them from swapping abilities for a second. Holds 25 shells.

The ultra-deadly M240A1 is one of the most fearsome and savage weapons in the arsenal of the Colonial Marines. Firing extra-thick sticky napthal fuel from detachable fuel tanks, the M240A1 is able to both set hostiles ablaze and to section off an area with a wall of fire. For extended field operations, users of the M240A1 often find themselves refilling their tanks with whatever flammable material is available, usually from the G-41 fuel tanks. Welding fuel is an alternate choice, readily available though not as effective. Additionally, one can ask the Pyrotechnician to refill your empty fuel tanks. To turn on the pilot light, go to the weapon tab and click unique action. There is no default hotkey for activating the incinerator unit, though you can set up one as a Macro.
They can be found in the Squad Leaders Equipment vendor, PFC Kits or incinerators can be ordered from requisitions if required.

Use a security access tuner (multitool) on the deployed mine.
Tactics:
Deploy the mines where Marines will likely be present/guarding (and within view range), thus more likely to result in a kill.
The trigger area is two tiles, the mine's tile and the tile it's facing. Cover the whole two tiles corridor instead of leaving one tile open.
Conceal the mines with (lit) flare, empty flare box, wood plank, unfolded roller bed, empty backpacks, etc.
Deploy the mines facing north or west, because they can easily be concealed with a lit flare.

Manual, crew-operated mortar system intended to rain down 80mm goodness on anything it's aimed at. Has a minimum range of 10 tiles. Can only be obtained via Requisitions.
Deals additional damage upon direct hits and provides a moderate napalm coverage of the surrounding area, additionally causes a small explosion upon impact.
Causes direct impact damage upon the tile hit after which it releases shrapnel in all directions.
Usage:
Anyone with a Trained level of engineering (Level 1 in engineering) can deploy and use the Mortar.
Recruit a squad member to be your spotter and make sure they have tactical binoculars.
Send your newly recruited spotter to ascertain coordinates of enemy positions. Once in your active hand click on the binoculars then Ctrl Click an enemy position and wait, once the binoculars beep you'll be given coordinates in chat.
Upon receiving the longitude and latitude coordinates, enter them into the Target section.
Note: After entering in a target the mortar will fire upon being loaded.
Load a flare shell by clicking the mortar with a shell in hand and after it has fired notify your spotter to inform you of any corrections that need to be given.
Once the spotter has relayed any corrections to you, enter them into the Dial section.
Note: The further away your target is the less accurate the mortar becomes so you will have to correctly offset it more.
Keep firing on that position until new coordinates are given or until the spotter tells you to stop.
Example: The flare lands and the spotter notices that it missed the targeted area by 4 tiles east and 3 tiles south and relays that to you. You would then dial the offset as -4 Longitude and 3 Latitude.

A high power sniper rifle, this weapon deals immense damage per bullet and is capable of attacking and hitting targets at extreme ranges. It comes equipped with a high power scope allowing the user a wide range of vision. It also has an ID tracker to prevent non corporate personnel from using it. The IFF features for this weapon only work for the PMC team.
This weapon is limited to six supersonic rifle rounds per magazine, combined with a slow rate of fire, a very obvious and loud firing noise and the fact that it is ineffective in close range combat as bullets fired too close to the user will miss. However, despite these drawbacks, the M42C is an exceptionally effective weapon when properly utilized.
It is the standard sniper rifle for Corporate PMC snipers.
A special variant of the M56 Smartgun only issued to PMC Gunners. It has an impressive 500 round ammo pool to draw from the 500 round drum magazine. It also has an optical infrared sensor allowing great visibility in low-light conditions, deals a good amount of damage per bullet with an extremely high rate of fire with burst fire capabilities. The coup de grace being that due to the gun's toggle-able complex targeting algorithms each bullet will not hit any fellow PMCs due to the enabled IFF tracking. This allows a Smartgun operator to fire freely through a group of PMCs without fear of hitting them. The Smartgun requires a special harness to lift.
The PMC variant has the nickname of Dirty because of the irradiated bullets they fire.
Only Corporate PMC Heavy Gunners and Death Squad Terminators can use this weapon, it's only available to them via the Emergency Response Teams.
