Marine operations are a rare sight in civilized space and a strong indication to anyone in the region that a location is to be avoided at all costs.

The selection criteria are never published and remain intentionally vague. No one applies to be a Marine, and candidates who make it known that they are seeking to serve with the organization are often passed over regardless of merit. Many theorize that the process is intentionally vague (and may be altered regularly) so that hopeful candidates cannot follow a precise model of Marine qualification. Although the vast majority of Marine trainees are selected from exceptional recruits during the boot camp process, it is not unheard of for outstanding soldiers and spacemen to be inducted into the corps after distinguishing themselves in action. In addition to initial Army or Navy boot camp, Marine candidates must undergo six \u201chell months\u201d at Marine Base Corin prior to being considered for induction.\n\nHistory\nThe Marines began life as the Advanced Special Operations (ASO) unit of the UPE Army, an elite corps charged with undertaking particularly difficult or unorthodox missions. ASO teams comprised the Army\u2019s top soldiers, and were provided millions of credits of advanced training with a focus in spatial combat (including zero and high gravity fighting). ASO units racked up a string of celebrated victories during mankind\u2019s expansion into the stars. During wartime, however, this changed. With the onslaught of the Tevarin, the division-strength ASO found itself playing a support role more often than not. Used by Army field commanders as a source of reinforcements in ordinary operations, rather than as a special operations group, the organization\u2019s training went to waste. A noteworthy 2558 Quantum Obelisk Computer analysis of infantry actions during the conflict resulted in a flurry of changes to organization and tactics, chief among them the need to disassociate the ASO from the Army\u2019s command hierarchy.\n\nThe ASO was reorganized into the core of a third spatial service.

A number of smaller Navy organizations, including the Space Combat Team and the Naval Future Weapons Office, were rolled into the newly-christened UPE Marines. With the advent of the Second Tevarin War in 2603, the wisdom of this policy was proven time and again: Marine units bested Corath\u2019Thal\u2019s forces every single time they were present for an engagement.

Located outside the system\u2019s Green Zone, Corin boasts massive tundra plains, jagged rock caverns and little else. The majority of the command base is located underground, with boot camp and wargames taking place on icy vistas and within natural ice trenches. The planet is protected by at least one Marine-crewed Bengal carrier at all times, and landing there is absolutely forbidden. The orbital guard forces have a standing weapons-free order allowing them to engage and destroy anyone approaching Corin airspace.\n\nUnlike other UEE forces, Marines do not deploy indiscriminately. A Marine is either stationed on Corin for training or he is actively engaged in a combat operation. Marines do not protect convoys, interdict pirates or garrison jump points: they invade planets, strike back at the Vanduul and personally protect the Imperator. The most famed specialty of the Marines is space-to-surface landing operations. Marine shock troopers can drop from the sky in specially constructed individual rocket pods, known as \u201cNails.\u201d Featuring the same internal dampeners as a Hornet, a Nail can deliver a trooper from the drop ship to a specifically targeted location on a planet\u2019s surface within 90 seconds.\n\nIn addition to their landing forces, the Marines operate an elite aviation arm.

Marineoperationen sind ein seltener Anblick im zivilisierten Raum und ein starker Hinweis f\u00fcr jeden in der Region, dass ein Standort um jeden Preis zu vermeiden ist. Der Imperator ruft seine Marines zu nur den wichtigsten Missionen und niemals zu Routineeins\u00e4tzen auf. W\u00e4hrend ihre fortschrittliche Technologie und Ausbildung ihnen die M\u00f6glichkeit der extremen Pr\u00e4zision bei ihren Kampfman\u00f6vern gibt, erlaubt ihnen ihre Charta einen extremen Spielraum bei der Projektion der Kraft. Im Umgang mit einer Attentatsmission zum Beispiel ist es ebenso m\u00f6glich, dass eine Marine-Fliegerbomberstaffel eine ganze Stadt verglasen k\u00f6nnte, wie eine Scharfsch\u00fctzeneinheit f\u00fcr einen stillen Tod eingesetzt werden k\u00f6nnte.\n\nDie UEE Marines sind buchst\u00e4blich die Besten der Besten: Marine Kandidaten werden aus den besten Rekruten ausgew\u00e4hlt, die sich in der Ausbildung der Armee und Marine befinden. Die Auswahlkriterien werden nie ver\u00f6ffentlicht und bleiben bewusst vage. Niemand gilt f\u00fcr\nein Marine sein, und Anw\u00e4rter, die es bekannt geben, dass sie suchen, mit der Organisation zu dienen, werden h\u00e4ufig vorbei unabh\u00e4ngig davon Verdienst gef\u00fchrt. Viele theoretisieren, dass der Prozess absichtlich vage ist (und regelm\u00e4\u00dfig ge\u00e4ndert werden kann), so dass hoffnungsvolle Kandidaten nicht einem genauen Modell der Marinequalifikation folgen k\u00f6nnen. Obwohl die \u00fcberwiegende Mehrheit der Marine-Auszubildenden w\u00e4hrend des Boot-Camp-Prozesses aus au\u00dfergew\u00f6hnlichen Rekruten ausgew\u00e4hlt wird, ist es nicht ungew\u00f6hnlich, dass herausragende Soldaten und Raumfahrer in das Corps aufgenommen werden, nachdem sie sich in der Praxis ausgezeichnet haben. Zus\u00e4tzlich zum anf\u00e4nglichen Armee- oder Marinestiefelager m\u00fcssen die Kandidaten der Marine sechs \"H\u00f6llenmonate\" in der Marine Base Corin durchlaufen, bevor sie f\u00fcr die Einarbeitung in Betracht gezogen werden.\n\nHistorie\nDie Marines begannen ihr Leben als Advanced Special Operations (ASO) Einheit der UPE Army, einem Elitecorps, das mit besonders schwierigen oder unorthodoxen Missionen betraut ist. Die ASO-Teams bestanden aus den besten Soldaten der Armee und erhielten Millionen von Credits f\u00fcr die Weiterbildung mit Schwerpunkt im Raumkampf (einschlie\u00dflich Null- und Schwerelosigkeitskampf). ASO-Einheiten feierten eine Reihe von Siegen w\u00e4hrend der Expansion der Menschheit in die Sterne. In der Kriegszeit \u00e4nderte sich das jedoch. Mit dem Ansturm der Tevarin spielte die Divisionskraft ASO in den meisten F\u00e4llen eine unterst\u00fctzende Rolle. Verwendet von den Feldkommandanten der Armee als Quelle der Verst\u00e4rkung bei den normalen Operationen und nicht als spezielle Operationsgruppe, ging die Ausbildung der Organisation verloren. Eine bemerkenswerte 2558 Quantum Obelisk Computer-Analyse der Infanterie-Aktionen w\u00e4hrend des Konflikts f\u00fchrte zu einer Vielzahl von \u00c4nderungen in Organisation und Taktik, vor allem die Notwendigkeit, das ASO von der F\u00fchrungshierarchie der Armee zu trennen.\n\nDas ASO wurde in den Kern eines dritten Raumfahrt-Dienstes umstrukturiert. Von diesem Zeitpunkt an w\u00fcrden die Marines v\u00f6llig unabh\u00e4ngig von der Armee handeln. Eine Reihe kleinerer Marine-Organisationen, darunter das Space Combat Team und das Naval Future Weapons Office, wurden in die neu getauften UPE Marines aufgenommen. Mit dem Beginn des Zweiten Tevarin-Krieges im Jahr 2603 wurde die Weisheit dieser Politik immer wieder unter Beweis gestellt: Marine Einheiten \u00fcberholten Corath'Thals Streitkr\u00e4fte jedes Mal, wenn sie bei einem Einsatz anwesend waren. Die Armee und die Marine konnten nichts beanspruchen, was sich dem n\u00e4herte, wobei ihre F\u00fchrer mit der immer noch laufenden Behauptung begannen, dass der Braindrain der Marine die Wirksamkeit ihrer Streitkr\u00e4fte minderte.\n\nAktueller Status\nDas UEE Marine Operations Headquarter befindet sich auf Corin, einem Zwergplaneten im militarisierten Kilian-System. Der Standort wurde sowohl wegen seiner Verw\u00fcstung als auch wegen seiner N\u00e4he zu einer gro\u00dfen Marinest\u00fctzpunkt gew\u00e4hlt: Die raue Umgebung des Planeten ist die ideale Trainingsumgebung f\u00fcr Marines. Corin liegt au\u00dferhalb der Gr\u00fcnen Zone des Systems und verf\u00fcgt \u00fcber riesige Tundraebenen, zerkl\u00fcftete Felskavernen und vieles mehr. Der Gro\u00dfteil der Kommandozentrale befindet sich unter der Erde, wobei Bootcamp und Kriegsspiele auf eisigen Pl\u00e4tzen und in nat\u00fcrlichen Eisgr\u00e4ben stattfinden. Der Planet wird zu jeder Zeit von mindestens einem marinen bengalischen Tr\u00e4ger gesch\u00fctzt, und die Landung dort ist absolut verboten. Die orbitalen Wachtruppen haben einen st\u00e4ndigen waffenfreien Befehl, der es ihnen erlaubt, jeden, der sich dem Luftraum von Corin n\u00e4hert, anzugreifen und zu zerst\u00f6ren.\n\nIm Gegensatz zu anderen UEE-Kr\u00e4ften setzen Marines nicht wahllos ein. Ein Marine ist entweder zur Ausbildung auf Corin stationiert oder er ist aktiv an einer Kampfeins\u00e4tze beteiligt. Marines sch\u00fctzen keine Konvois, Piraten oder Sprungbretter: Sie dringen in Planeten ein, schlagen gegen die Vanduul zur\u00fcck und sch\u00fctzen pers\u00f6nlich den Imperator. Die ber\u00fchmteste Spezialit\u00e4t der Marines sind die Raumfahrt-Landeoperationen. Marineschocktruppen k\u00f6nnen in speziell konstruierten Einzelraketenkapseln, den so genannten \"Nails\", vom Himmel fallen. Mit den gleichen internen D\u00e4mpfern wie eine Hornet kann ein Nagel einen Trooper vom Dropship innerhalb von 90 Sekunden an einen speziell daf\u00fcr vorgesehenen Ort auf der Oberfl\u00e4che eines Planeten bringen.\n\nZus\u00e4tzlich zu ihren Landestreitkr\u00e4ften betreiben die Marines einen Elitefliegerarm. Marine Lufteinheiten zeichnen sich typischerweise durch robustere Varianten bestehender Raumfahrzeuge aus, die aus unwegsamem Gel\u00e4nde oder an Bord schnell reagierender Begleitfahrzeuge geflogen werden k\u00f6nnen. Marinekr\u00e4fte fliegen nicht von Marine-Gro\u00dfschiffen weg. Stattdessen betreiben und bemannen sie ihre eigenen Kriegsschiffe. Gem\u00e4\u00df ihrer Satzung betreibt die Truppe keine eigenen vollwertigen Trockendocks oder Reparaturanlagen: Marinesatelliten erhalten auf allen Milit\u00e4rh\u00f6fen eine bevorzugte Behandlung.\n\nObwohl sich alle Marines als \"The Imperator's Own\" verstehen, hat insbesondere eine Abteilung besonderen Anspruch auf diesen Titel. Das 1. Marine-Kampfbataillon ist die beste Einheit, die den Imperator bewachen soll. Nur die besten Marine Trooper werden jemals f\u00fcr den Einsatz beim Ersten in Betracht gezogen, und nur sehr wenige von ihnen werden sogar f\u00fcr eine einj\u00e4hrige Amtszeit ausgew\u00e4hlt. Weniger verdienen noch eine dauerhafte Zuordnung zu den R\u00e4ngen. Mitglieder der First tragen violett hervorgehobene Raumpanzer, wenn sie ausgestellt sind, und es wird erwartet, dass sie den Imperator um jeden Preis sch\u00fctzen.\n\nJeder Marine Trooper ist eine effiziente T\u00f6tungsmaschine und wurde in einer Vielzahl von speziellen Kriegsf\u00fchrungsformen ausgebildet. Die Truppe f\u00f6rdert die Entwicklung sowohl von Allrounder-K\u00e4mpfern als auch von extrem spezialisierten Experten. Der durchschnittliche Marine ist wahrscheinlich ein erfahrener Sch\u00fctze, ein Weltklasse-Athlet, ein taktisches Genie und mehr. Einheitliche B\u00e4nder, die au\u00dferhalb des sichtbaren Spektrums eingef\u00e4rbt sind (aber leicht erkennbar an den fortschrittlichen HUDs, die in der Marine Kampfr\u00fcstung verwendet werden), kennzeichnen weitere Spezialit\u00e4ten, die vom Bediener der Antimaterie-Munition bis zur Unterst\u00fctzung der Exolinguistik reichen.\n\nRangliste\nH.C.
