Marine Sergeant

"You will stand your ground!"

Veterans with centuries of service, Space Marine sergeants are able to inspire their men to fight harder against long odds. Their rank entitles them to better equipment than the men they lead, including powerful close-combat weapons capable of tearing through the strongest armour. However, like most of the leaders in the game, they have lost their helmets.

Tactics

The addition of a Marine Sergeant provides two major bonuses to Space Marine Squads. These are enhanced melee damage and the ability to restore morale through the use of Rally. The Power Weapons and Power Fist upgrades greatly increase the squad's damage in melee, though not enough to make it a match for true melee specialists.
