Bravo squad always gets FoB duty, and they're damn good at protecting it (most of the time). I'm a Bravo but FoB duty is a bit boring, so I think I'll try out Charlie for some of that front line action.

What would an Echo Squad be best known for in our wave of purple charlies, deltards, FOBravos, and existential Alphas?
that's where we would send the edgy snowflake flavor text using marines, in a black squad to match the emptyness and hatred they feel inside



or i dunno maybe make it a penal squad like bad company

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.

Alpha squad is alright because they're ALPHA AF. They generally do alright but maybe that's just because they're usually stuck on FOB. A good base line to judge other squads off of.

Bravo is a punishment, if you roll it your in for a bad time. If you pick bravo your a beta loser who rolls #WorstSquadNA. Their yellow is to close to the engineering radio colour for my liking and the only RP I ever get out of it is from shitters being shit or the 3-4 cool people who do roll it for...some...reason? Squad consistently lets me down and generally fails at life.

Charlie squad best squad. Though there's often rounds where all the vets are offline or get tossed in other squads and the squad just eat the whole ass. When they do have their vets the squad is hype as fuck and carries like CHAMPS. True hero's who actually RP roll Charlie. My favorite people in the game roll charlie for a reason, and that reasons probably just because purple looks pretty game good.

Delta, when I first started getting into the game I rolled Delta for a few months because I noticed right away they were the real Ultimate Badasses, and I wanted to be just like them. Players in the squad like Spartan, Sleepy, Ellen, Murta, and prolly a dozen others I'm forgetting really inspired me to actually learn the game through and through and really kick some xeno ass. If I hadn't lucked out just happened to make a bunch of friends that only roll Charlie, I'd still play Delta. The squad has it's low points just like every other one but they're still the most consistently robust squad, even if the RP can sometimes be lacking compared to Charlie they're still the second best for it because of the chemistry of its vets. When it comes to it they're my first pick to fight with on the frontlines, even if the Deltard myth might make you fear a load of AP up your ass.

the few rounds i've played this week consisted mainly of bravo being weeaboos and talks about cat people
ayys crashed into the almayer on one round and four of us died immediately outside of medbay, i gave this motivational talk somewhere along the lines of "lets do this for our fallen"
i got ran over by a crusher trying to drag a buddy back into medbay and almost instantly died

time to switch to charlie

I like the image of Delta being a toin coss.

And I like Delta at all. I started as a Delta when Dolthgar taught me how to play.

Alpha and Bravos are cool dudes, but I don't count on them to save my ass on the frontline when I'm in a difficulty, I usually stick to Delts and Charls for better pushes.

Unless other squads, Delta squad can handle itself pretty decently when not having SL, due to its many vets doing whatever the hell they want. But Delta really shines when it has a good SL, or a good Spec taking the lead.

Charlie is quite good, as a matter of skills, but they are meany meany, so I don't like them.

Wrong ! You can expect the best squad comms of the whole battalion.

Though recently I've been seeing more and more Bravo's that just dick around too god damned much at briefing, I find that Bravo Squad gets a lot less credit than they really deserve.

We're often the ones who sit back and secure the LZ's and engineering so the rest of you have a place to retreat to. We set up gun nests, barricades, bars to give marines that little touch of home on the battlefield. We fight to the very last and make sure that every marine we can possibly get is evacuated before we call the evac for ourselves, we always move to defend Medbay and protect doctors and wounded when the shuttle is crashed into the Almayer.

I've seen Bravo wiped at the very start of the map, and I've seen Bravo absolutely devastate the aliens, even turning massive sieges from Medical on Big Red into marine majors.

Though the other squads taunt us and heckle us, we always pick ourselves up and go into battles with our heads held high and our guns forward.

Proud to be a banananana.

Charlie is a close second, I state this because they are the only squad in marine history to chug black goo like it was hooch.

Alpha and Delta tend to be the first into battle and the first wiped off the face of the planet, I'm sad to say that I have a lot of memories of our SO chiming in over comms" "Alpha and Delta just got wiped."

Deltas are the best. Generally a bunch of dicking around but usually we are halfway competent. Just the memers and a lot of the better known faces go there. My favoring of delta was just because back on Sulaco I got it over and over, rarely getting other squads.

Man, Delta since day one. The only bad thing about Delta is that a bunch of griefers and baldies hop into Delta Squad now and then and mess the flow up sometimes. And now that it became a 'meme', dudes are just joining to be the shit.

Bravo is the squad I've had the most fun in, delta is meh, I haven't even touched charlie and alpha is also meh. Sure it's a lot of FOB duty but I always have fun watching the bodies pile up until the inevitable FOB attack where we fight for our lives.
