Survived as a SL while constantly pushing at the front lines with my squad (Alpha) and Bravo all the way to Lambda Labs with four broken bones for the entire campaign while constantly getting FF'd, UGL'd, put on fire, and nearly OB'd to death.

So you got lucky?
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Oh, yes. Yeah, absolutely not: that push was fun as hell and had a lot of teamwork and skill, but Jesus you took so much abuse and got critically injured at least four times.

Fucked up, and hilarious moment from a few days ago: Spawns in as PO, Acting commander orders only 1 ship be used the whole time and there were 2 of us. I take a few trips and the other PO gets bored so I say, alright you can go now. Spent the next 80% of the round playing Blackjack with Kyomi, an hour and a bit later, the PO tells me that he needs a break and that I should take the next flight. Next flight happens to be the emergency evac flight....

I get down there, cockpit is overrun I help defend the rasp with a shotgun and I tell Command to launch the shuttle. The Commander tells me he can't and I have to do it manually, I look at the cockpit........holy shit a runner, a crusher is on its side, and a queen not far off. I go "FUCK IT, COVER ME!" and open the cockpit doors, immediately a marine FF GLs me, before it explodes I set the dropship to launch, Crusher goes inside whilst im downed, Runner tries dragging me up, I go NOPE and run in, getting shot in the meantime. Dropship takes off, I go in and kill the crusher with close range buckshot as other marines around couldnt do it for some reason.....pass out and start dying from my wounds of FF, slashing, GL and crusher.

I get healed up somehow I had no broken bones. Aliens invade, kill a carrier in engineering and weld as many vents as I can in the upper deck aft side. Then GL kill the queen and die. For someone who spent the vast majority of the match playing blackjack, I got a crusher, carrier, queen kill and took the dropship off like a hero.

Got left behind when the shuttle took off with shutters closed. Me and about 3 or 4 other marines held out for a while, until it was only me and a bravo left over. We held out for a little bit longer, until we both got pounced almost simultaneously.
Phillip Driver, jack of all trades, reliable in some. Your typical jumpy flamer PFC or ammo fumbling CPL, always has a pair of ballistic goggles on him for unknown reasons. Will probably die mid sentence, because he talks (and gets bullied) too much for his own good. He has his moments though.

Jim, a Gen 2 Synthetic. Has a tendency to get melted to bits when planet side, and that's when he's behind barricades. Despite that, he's vigilant and always ready to drag you out of danger, even if it damages him in the process.

I was walking towards the dropship when I was face to face with a runner. They seemed to have snuck on the ship, but I had a machete and killed it one on one, and won.
Look, I've heard your cries, and your calls.
I know you're mad at Command. I know you're angry. I know you're angry that those dinosaurs killed your fellow men.
You told me this, and I heard you.
But you shouldn't be angry at your command. If you're angry at command, you're saying that command sent those men to die. But command didn't kill those men. The enemy killed those men. They took your comrades from you. That's the important thing to remember, it was the enemy who took your friends, and you should be really REALLY mad at them.
Before you go back down there, I'm reminding you who your enemy is. The enemy.

One time a drop ship left behind a couple of marines including me. I went with a Shotgun/Pulse Rifle combo, when the ship left me and 4 other marines started running away and shooting at basically the entire hive but they swiftly captured and infected all of us. I had lost my shotgun and they put us all in nests. The other marines basically accepted that they would die but I was fucking pissed and still had my pulse rifle so when I broke free I just did a run and gun and killed off a runner and 2 drones before being killed. I didn't save any marines but it was so awesome I didn't care

The two most "robust" things iv ever done was
1: call an OB on top of myself which crited the queen and (so im told) allowed the marines to drag her still living corpse onto DS1 as a war trophy.

2: 1v1ing a runner to death with a boot knife as a ravager took off my entire right arm mere seconds ago, said "heroism" allowed my Squad Spec to be deffibed.

Edited, forgot
3: killing a Drone and Praetorian as a CL with the Mod88, in atmos breached maintenance tunnels.

Still living corpse...I uh. I don't know if you know what corpse means...It means they're dead. The queen just sometimes doesn't have her green guts spilling out because reasons.

Step #1: Need a fire--ax.
Step #2: Need a Xeno.
Step #3: Kill xeno (ax).
Step #4: Crusher/rav kill you.
