 After you've picked a weapon, remember to vend yourself some ammo for it. You can also store [[File:CombatKnife.png]] '''Combat Knives''' in your boots and [[File:M9.png]] [[File:SmokeGrenadeUNSC.png]] '''Grenades''' in your armor. As these are the bare essentials, you'll be left with some room for variation in your kit; you could try pairing an MA5B with a Magnum and a hardcase with ammo for it, or a [[File:Machete.png]] '''Machete''' if you're feeling brave.
-Once you're geared you must also ensure that you're well fed, as it will allow you to move without a hunger slowdown and help your blood regeneration, useful for avoiding plasma bolts and not dying from them.

 This method of entry forces most species to bring internals and use [[File:Box.png]] '''Ranger Gear''' (available from equipment vendors), sacrificing some of their protection in exchange for resistance to the vaccum of space.  Unggoy and Yanme'e, however, are naturally resistant to vacuums, and the Unggoy also spawn with internals as they breathe methane instead of oxygen.

To fire them, use the "Launch Pod" verb in the "Vehicles" tab once you're in range. Note that you don't have to be inside a pod to launch it, so you can send a few ahead to act as decoys.
