− | Where do the PCs fit in a large and complex organization like the Marine Assault Unit? They are the members of a rifle squad in the 2nd platoon, Kilo Company. Their platoon commander is Lieutenant Maria Casados, assisted by her platoon sergeant, Staff Sergeant Szymborska. The platoon has a single android, named Roy, assigned as a technical specialist.

− | In a Colonial Marines campaign, the four- Marine squad provides a perfect roleplaying-sized unit. The squad is divided into a Rifle Team, consisting of a pair of riflemen, each armed with the M41 pulse rifle, and a Gun Team that consists of a machine gunner (armed with the M56 Smartgun) partnered with a rifleman. Two squads form a section, commanded by a sergeant, which means that if there are more than four players at the table, then the fifth player can take the role of the section commander (if possible) but for the first mission there could be a very mixed bag of different Colonial Marines or even non-Marines in the game.
