Suggestion Title: Sentry guns
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Add sentry guns to the marine arsenal.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It's a way for marines to have their flanks covered.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): I don't think they should be deployed until first contact and know that they like to lurk in the dark. I think they should spawn in cases, with several components that you have to put together (barrel assembly, gun battery, ammo drum, etc.) They would have a 500 round ammunition drum that could be refilled with the machine gun ammo box. Any alien that comes within a... I dunno, five tile range? It'd be fully automatic like the stationary MG is. Marines would
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): I guess it'd be recycled turret code? It'd probably have to be messed with since it's ballistics, not energy projectiles. Stamos would probably sprite this.
For reference, it's this: http://avp.wikia.com/wiki/UA_571-C_Automated_Sentry_Gun

RE: Sentry guns
Totally +1 Sentry Guns are cool. Especially if there will be Variants. Don't see much point for the Laser one( except obvious OP'nes) but a Grenade launching Turret that's say loaded with weedkiller's Set up that with another Normal turret or 2 and you got a neat automated Defense. Which also opens up various possibilities if Yautja and WY PMC are in play. Imagine a Group of PMC flanking the turrets and making theyr way to the Controlling Console and hacking it? And instead of firing on Them it starts firing on Marines? Or if Yautja do the same? AND GODS I already imagine that scene from Aliens where turrets keep hordes suppressed but then suddenly Motion detectors pick movement yet turrets won't fire. Uuuug awesome. *is having a nerdgasm*
