All right... with Haylie's and Evra's posts I will reveal the standard marine armament!

Your average marine is issued with a 40 ammo clip three round burst and full auto pulse rifle. The rifle fires light armor piercing rounds, and has a grenade launcher slung underneath. The launcher comes loaded with three fragmentation grenades.

Also the marine is issued a combat knife, pistol side arm, and nine hand grenades. The hand grenades resemble small cylinders, you pop the cap off of one and press the button down to set the charge. The hand grenades consist of three flash bang concussion grenades, three pepper gas grenades, and three thermite grenades.

There is also a 'heavy' loadout and a 'tech' loadout.

The heavy armament drops the pulse rifle in favor of a large caliber armor piercing machine gun. This gun is rather unwieldy, and is actually strapped to the marine via a harness. They also come equipped with a combat knife, a auto shotgun, and eight hand grenades. Half frag and half thermite.

The tech loadout comes with a sniper rifle, optical HUD visor, a computer slicing tool, a small toolkit complete with a laser cutting torch, a submachine gun backup weapon, and six grenades. Three EMP grenades and three flashbangs.

If you want to use your own personal weapons you can, to an extent, but you still are required to choose one of the three loadouts.

Bendak shall choose the standard kit!

Also...how many ammo clips come for the *cough* battle rifle *cough* on the battlefield, how many rounds in the pistol, and how many clips for it as well?

Does body armor differ from loadout to loadout?

[Knight Errant]

Good question!

...

I have no idea. But after doing some research I came up with the following!

Pulse Rifle: 15 magazines. Each holding 40 rounds.

Shotgun: 60 rounds. It holds ten shells.

Heavy Machinegun: 2000 rounds. It is belt fed from a dispenser backpack.

Pistol : 8 magazines, each holding 15 rounds.

Sniper Rifle: 12 magazines, each holding five rounds.

Submachine gun: 10 magazines, each holding 30 rounds.

I watched the movie, and actually enjoyed it a lot! I've never done a RP anything like this though, so apologies if I make mistakes. I debated long and hard over a female vs male character, and ended up going with one that feels a bit generic to me, but at the same time, it's very unlike my usual characters.

Name: Vic Gomez
Age: 26

Physical Appearance:

Vic is a pretty big guy, 6'2" in height, with broad shoulders and chest, thick arms and legs, all pure muscle. His head is shaved, and he has several scars across his tanned body (which is often visible), including one across his face that streaks right down from his forehead to the corner of his mouth, going right across an eye that is now covered with a black patch.

Service Tag: KT-320

Bio:

Vic doesn't come from a long line of famous military people, nor does he have any reason to want revenge on any alien life, he just wants to blow things up. Growing up on earth, he always wanted to become a space marine. He was never the smartest, but he was always the toughest. He's not the most skillful either, he's pretty poor with a sniper rifle, but he's not afraid of anything, and never gives up.

I'll put a sign up sheet ASAP

[Knight Errant]

So Harri... what loadout are you choosing? XD

[Haylie]

Paula will be the average marine gun-holder with the rifle. But she's got her own armor. Is that okay?

[Harri-chan]

I'll go with heavy!

[Knight Errant]

Heh, nice choice. Approved!

Name: Stryker Coleman
Age: 32
Load Out: Heavy
Specialty: Close combat and demolitions.
Physical Appearance: A 5'10 man with a muscular build. Tan skin, with a 5 o clock Shadow and short spikey black hair, blue eyes. He also has no left arm. Instead he has a mechanical one, though its well hidden thanks to his clothing.
Battle record: China 2052, Chibea Revolution. North Korea 2060, Dae-Ji's Uprissing.
Service Tag: DX - 619

Bio: Stryker comes from Scotland and a family of farmers. Battle runs through his blood as his grandfather was in the airforce, his Father in the army and now he was a Marine. His mother never wanted her son to enlist, but the thrill of the battle lured Stryker into joining at the age of 18. During training he exelled in all fields, though he hated having to resort to indirect combat. He preffered a more... personal approuch. At the age of 20, he was moved to the lunar base where he lost his left arm from a faulty Pulse Rifle. Despite this set back, thankfully medicine has advanced far enough that losing limbs is no longer something that cripples people. Stryker has been in 2 war zones already, all being civil wars around the battle, this will be his first out of planet mission.

Stryker likes to follow his gut and do what he feels is right, even if because of this he has gotten flak from supiriors due to not following orders. Though having a reckless behavior, he does carry out his mission successfully and with few cassualities to boot. Being recognized as a veteran at war that isnt the only side to him. Stryker has been known to be a bit devious and has a habbit of smoking, this has led to some discomfort amount teamates. Though thats usually just to hide his fears. No amount of expirience can stop a lucky bullet from hitting just the right place. He knows damn well that battlefield like the sea, is harsh mistress.

[Knight Errant]

Alright... I am SO still doing this. Mass Effect 2 has just taken over my life recently. As I feared it might. No problem though, I plan to do a lot of catching up tomorrow.

Orrr I could always play MORE mass effect 2...

[Haylie]

*I smack Errant over the head with a baseball bat*
NO! You will make this RP or Haylie will assimilate you!

[Knight Errant]

Right! Kaizer, approved! And good luck with that bionic arm! Make sure to keep it oiled.

Anyway... I think we have enough. So I will get things rolling!

Bio:
After studying Physical Geography in university on Earth, it quickly became apparent that there was little use for anyone with such a degree was no longer useful on the earth as it had been rather throughly exploited for minerals and precious metals.

With no use for his degree on earth and limited other options open to him at that moment, he would spent some time as an idle drifter, doing odd jobs and living off a government stipend until one day he came across a colonial recruiting office who were looking for people to colonize new words, setting up new colonies from scratch on some recently discovered planets. He signed up for this new life without a second thought.

Soon after he was taken to a space station in geo stationary orbit above the earth and before being frozen into cryogenic stasis, he was issued with a colonial service tag. After many months within the cryogenic tube, they arrived to a new planet and were landed on the planet, the hard work began on building the colony. To begin it was hard, trying work and the only thing that seemed to get through the work was a fellow colonist who had set up a home brew of ale which sustained him through the hard work..
