I love the halo marines and ODSTs but they seem a little "plain", bungie should introduce some specialised versions of the marines to give them more of a military feel to them, plus the covenant have already got specialised units (elite=commander, grunt=inflantry), each marine should have their own weapons, appearance and personality which sets them apart from other amrines. So here's a few of my ideas for some specialised marines:
RIFLEMEN
WEAPON: assault rifle, frags
APPERENCE: the riflemen should have the same kit as the marines in halo 2
DESCRIPTION:backbone of the marine corp expert at assaulting enemy postions, armed with a assault rifle and grenades
PERSONALITY: scared new guy
AUTOMATIC RIFLEMEN
WEAPONS: light machine gun, frags
APPERENCE: same armour as riflemen, but with a bush hat and a belt of bullets across his chest
DESCRIPTION:support trooper of the marine corp able to throw down mass amounts of fire onto the enemy, armed with a light machine gun (a SAW like weapon)
PERSONALITY: cocky bastard
GRENADIER
WEAPONS: shotgun, rocket launcher
APERENCE: more armour than a riflemen, goggles on his helmet, and a back pack full of extra rockets
DESCRIPTION: heavy inflantry able to take out enemy vehicles and hard targets, armed with a shotgun and a rocket launcher
PERSONALITY: loves guns and thing that go boom
SQUAD LEADER
WEAPONS: assault rifle, radio pack
APPERENCE: sargents cap, a headset and litle computer screen over eye, and a field radio
DESCRIPTION:experienced combat leaders whose tactic can pull his squad out of a tight spot, armed with a assault rifle and can call in air strikes with his radio pack
PERSONALITY: by the book professional
SNIPER
WEAPONS: SMG, sniper rifle
APERENCE: less armour than riflemen, covered face, some camo
DESCRIPTION: long range killer trained to work seperate from marine squads in teams of 2 snipers, armed with a sniper rifle and a SMG (which should be made into an uzi like weapon)
PERSONALITY: loves his job to much, kinda pyhcotic
PILOT
WEAPONS: SMG, vehicle
APPERENCE: same armour as pilot at start of outskirts, pilot helmet
DESCRIPTION: these troopers pilot the vehicles of the UNSC they are skilled and good at their job, burning enemies from the air, armed with a SMG (to defend themselves if shot down)
PERSONALITY: smart guy, vehicle lover
MEDIC
WEPONS: SMG, health pack
APPERENCE: riflemen armour, medic cross on helmet
DESCRIPTION: the real heros of war risking theie own lives to save other, equipt with a medic kit and defend themselve with a SMG
PERSONALITY: religious guy or the guy thats seen to much death
a squad code should be put into halo 3 which makes a squad of marines always sicking together, a squad should contain: 1 squad leader, 2 riflemen, 1 automatic riflemen, and a grenadier.these soldiers are linked by a code to keep them together so u dont get those marines that run off and die
Snipers, pilots and medic move around the battle feild doing their own thing
so what do u think?
