The lives of your crew and your marines are precious, try not to spend them on stupid decisions.

Difficulty: Medium

Difficulty: Easy

Playstyle: Follow the orders of your Commanding Officer. Help him do his work or lessen the burden by taking the initiative. Command the Corps if the CO is busy piloting the vessel or coordinating with the other officers. Make sure the vessel is running smoothly and that each department is doing their jobs.

Difficulty: Easy

Playstyle: Distribute weapons to the marines and ODSTs. Coordinate with the ship's marshals to ensure peace is maintained in the lines. You are also in charge of logistics, so it's your task to supply ammo to the ground forces.

Marine

Description: The rank and file of the UNSC. You are a Soldier of the UNSC Heaven Above. Many in number, deadly in combat. You are the back-bone of the many Ground Operations that this ship has to encounter. Stick together with your fellow marines, there is strength in numbers.

Difficulty: Easy

Playstyle: You follow the Marine Squad Leader. There may be one or multiple at the same time. Stay in a squad, and maintain a good spread-out formation when moving. This helps avoid getting your entire squad killed in close-quarters combat, or by a any explosive ordinance thrown at you by the enemy.

United Nations Space Command Navy Special Warfare Branch:

Roles Description
ODST.png

Description: The Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (ODST), informally referred to as "Helljumpers" are a special operations component of the UNSC Marine Corps and the Corps rapid reaction force. One of the primary special operations forces of the United Nations Space Command, the ODST's are under the administrative and operational control of Naval Special Weapons(NAVSPECWEP).

Difficulty: Medium/Hard

Playstyle: As an ODST you are assigned to the UNSC Naval asset in system. ODST's deploy when the situation is deemed to be beyond the capabilities of the marine detachment to contain. ODST's work in fireteams and do not deploy unless ordered by their commanding officer or any other competent command authority. ODST's utilize specialized weapons and equipment for this purpose.

As an ODST you are specialized in boarding operations, and will be the unit of choice to inspect and/or neutralize other vessels. ODST's are also experts in counter terrorism operations and guerrilla warfare. Expect to be dropped beyond enemy lines as a matter of course.

Motto: We go feet first!

NOTE: THE ODST ARE CURRENTLY WHITELISTED. YOU CAN APPLY FOR THE ROLE ON THE FORUMS.

ONI Sec.png
ONI Security Squad Leader Close

Description: ONI Security are a unit devoted to the protection of highly classified ONI research bases. Drawn from the Marines and Army, they are outfitted with heavier Marine army with more protection. Squad leaders in ONI act as the on site CO, as all ONI Security personnel share the same rank. Squad leaders make sure the security doesn't slack.

Difficulty: Medium/Low

Playstyle: You don't sit in checkpoints when other Sec agents are available. You can order around any rank lesser than yours and officers can order you about. However, you are NAVSPECWARCOM, so Naval Captains shouldn't be distracting you from the job (ODSTs are SPECWAR, thought). Be wary. Your only form of secure communication to other soldiers is through the shipcom (:s) so chatter and reactions from other personnel is quite possible. Just patrol and make sure everyone is safe. Encourage the use of MA5Bs and M6Ds for surface operations, but M7s or M90s for below level. While you have access to an armory full of every weapon, you have limited access to them and the danger can be elevated if Insurrection get their hands on a BR55 or M395. That is your call to make.

There is also a onsite Nuke. Do not rely on it to function 100% of the time. The Nuke is for self detonation in case of a breech that overruns tbe facility. Arming it and getting behind adequate cover is necessary. Do not mess this call up. You are responsible for any mess ups.

ONI Sec.png
ONI Security Close

Description: ONI Security are a special NAVSPECWARCOM unit meant for protecting the scientists and the research they have. They use heavier but more protecting armor than Marines and have access to better equipped vehicles and weaponry to defend their stations. They are the first responders to a situation.

Difficulty: Low

Playstyle: ONI Security can be boring, but when it kicks up you have to know what you are doing. Unlike Marines, you are strictly to defend the covert operations below ground. Protocol 1 is to immediately demand for the targets to lay down. However if weapons are out, KOS can be enacted, unlike Marines who can only be fired upon. You are also E-7 Gunnery Sergeants. If need be, you can make orders for soldiers to carry out. However, this is ill advised if they are doing their own tasks.

Most work would be manning the gate confetti maker, and the sublevel check point. Any others can guard towers. MA5Bs are fine for surface work, but sublevel 1 can call for M7s and M90s. Do take a M6D and holster it to finish off any hostiles beaten.

DO NOT SNOOP AROUND THE RND BASE! YOU ARE NOT A SCIENTIST! SUBLEVEL 2 IS OFF LIMITS UNLESS WITH A RESEARCHER AND SUBLEVEL 1 DOESN'T NEED UNNECESSARY PATROLMEN! LISTEN TO YOUR SQUAD LEADER!
