Ok so you are all cadets in the same military academy, you all study the same basics and are similar levels of intelligence and physical skill. That doesn't however mean you don't have your own areas of expertise. You are all 19 or 20.

These areas are summarized below and DO affect your stats, a full base stat sheet will be posted later and at that point I'll show what each specialty effects however it's fairly obvious if you think about it.

All marines can handle the standard handheld weapons with slightly varying degrees of ability, all are basically trained in driving the warthog and all have basic tech knowledge.

One thing that you must note (for both roleplaying and for a few background rolls I will be making if the need arises) is that none of you have ever seen actual combat before or even dead bodies. Unless you have a very good reason in your back story. Most of you are sent here by parents who are already in the military, high standing in society or wealthy while others sent you here to gain prestige and move up in society. Not all Grunts get special academy training, most get boot camps. You are expected to be the ones working your way up to positions of command.

A possible reason for you having seen bodies or combat is if you were present in an insurgent attack, you would have been a child or young teenager at the time and NOT a combatant. Include this with some detail in your backstory if you want but not everyone can be an 'insurgent orphan'.

All-Round Marine

The good at everything but not specialized in anything marine. This GI has done all the standard training along with the basic training for MOST weapons in the standard UNSC arsenal. He is proficient in most standard weaponry and is capable of using sniper and heavy weapons but he is no trained marksman with them and don't expect him to have experience with EVERY big gun you find. He has also taken all basic vehicle training so can drive most of the ground vehicles found on base but don't expect fancy maneuvers.

The Marksman

The ranged weapon specialist. This marine found that while others put 3 out of 5 in the black mid-range, he put 5 out of 5. Trained in all ranged and sniper weaponry this marine specializes in ranged warfare whether it's trying for head shots with a BR or DMR at 100 yards or sniping at over a mile, he can give it a good try. He has seen many of the heavy weapons in the armoury but has little to no training with them so really don't expect him to sling a rocket launcher onto his shoulder and pick off a moving target. He can drive the warthog but has little practical experience.

The Heavy

After going through the standard weapons training he was seen to always have the biggest smile on his face when explosives were involved. Having taken advanced training in heavy weaponry and ordinance this marine is a specialist in everything from rockets and turrets to demolitions. If you want something big removed fast then this is your man. He can handle almost any standard explosive device or heavy weapon the UNSC has to offer however his marksmanship is somewhat lacking at range and his driving isn't the safest option.

The Grease Monkey

The resident mechanic in training, this marine has a an affinity for machines and driving them. If its human and moves he can probably fix or drive it. He doesn't excel at weaponry and only gets average scores at the firing range but his ability to fix vehicles on the go and to drive just about anything with a high level of skill is what he banks on.

The Tech

The electronics and technology specialist, often called the hacker. This guy knows human electronics inside and out and given the right tools can get into most human systems and devices that aren't locked down by ONI (their encryption is on a whole different level and trying to hack them leads to people being hastily relocated... At 3am) he is an average shot at the range and has rarely if ever used sniper or heavy weapons however his information is usually way ahead of his fellow cadets and he has intimate knowledge of the bases systems, whether he is supposed to or not. He can drive but nothing fancy unless it's in a computer game.

The Medic

This marine was an average shot on the range and an average driver in the warthog however he had the guts to put down his gun and take out bandages instead. He has advanced triage training and if he has the kits can provide much better medical aid than a standard marine, possibly even saving a life where others couldn't. Just don't put him in charge of the sniper rifle or rocket launcher.
