So I'm very happy and must share news with all of you. I pwnd the ASVAB which is a test for the US military to see how smart you are and what jobs you can qualify for. I qualified for every job the Military has to offer. Of all of the options i had i had to pick 3 options to bring to MEPS. Was a hard decision but I chose, Combat Engineer, Military Police, and Intelligence Analyst. The Intel one looked really interesting because I'd get to work with the FBI and get Top Security Clearance. But that's too much stuff for me so I'm keeping it Grenadier and went with Combat Engineer. I get to blow stuff up with this job. After a couple months in I'm going to a 39week AIT school for EOD Specialist. Explosive Ordinance Disposal. But just had to share my news. And when I go to basic which I don't think will be til January. It's 9 weeks long, of no computer use at all Sad but then for I'll be good to go after that. Woot!! Fer teh Grenadiers!!!

When you pull the pin out, don't forget to throw it... The grenade that is. Wink

I'm sure the Baron's Own Grenadier's explosives course will set you in good stead.  Cheesy

Congratulations chief, a little disappointed you didn't choose Intel since you could have been flying in a silent black helicopter and discussing the NWO with cigarette smoking man.

Nevermind !

I've found you some information which may prove useful for your chosen career.....

The Combat Engineer:
Combat Engineering is for those of us that enjoy the big bangs. In a Infiltration Suit, we never get to carry the big guns that can blow things up in a single shot or two. ACEs let us reassert ourselves.

In its primary setting, the ACE creates a boomer. Now MAXs are scarily vulnerable to you. While running around an enemy base, if you find a MAX, step back around a corner, plant the boomer, then go get its attention. A little movement, or quickly cycling your stealth on and off will leave them thinking they've caught you and give chase. Run back around the corner, wait for them to step over the boomer, pop the trigger and you just killed yourself a MAX.

Other Engineering Roles
It is worth setting up additional equipment profiles that don't use the Infiltration Suit. Use the agile suit here for additional carrying space. This lets you carry out three additional valuable tasks:

Repair Engineer
If you are respawning from an AMS, it becomes your lifeline. Having a profile with a repair tool lets you heal your AMS far faster than just about anything else can damage it. Once your AMS is back to full strength, grab your stealth gear again and go back to playing normally.

MAX Support
If you are part of a team that's hacking a base, the repair tool can greatly add to your team's abilities. Set a MAX or two blocking a corridor and hide behind them with your repair tool and an inventory full of repair cells. Now you should be able to heal them faster than they can get hurt while their bulk and heavy weapons block you from getting hit and mow down all comers.

Base Defense
If you end up defending a base, ACEs become a godsend.

Place mines at the top and bottom of every wall stairwell and outside the side doors. If you watch, most Infiltration Suited attackers run along the walls to avoid fire from above. They also run straight in to a base, along the side of a wall and dive into a stairwell to get some cover before running along the tops of the walls. Your mines will sit there collecting XP for you.

Spitfire Turrets, wherever you place them, are a great way of taking out the unwary. Placing them behind trees or just inside entrances keeps those who are trying to sneak in to a base from see them until it's too late.

Motion sensors become hugely valuable in base defenses. Place as many as you can and you will always know where the action is, where the Infiltration Suits are running in and which sides the squads of MAXs are approaching from so you can go set up a boomer or two.

Once you have set up all of your defenses, drop back to your Infiltration Suit, play as normal and collect the extra XP your automated kills gain you.


Teehee, watch out for the New Conglomerate, they're mothers.

(Seriously though, good job on passing the test you big hero Kiss)

Kinda like that marine caught in his pink heart  "I love New York" Boxers. Made it all over the news. His general, when put to task by the media for it, said " Hell no Im not going to punish that Marine. He should get a medal for Bravery"

(What many news media left out was that their unit was hit in the middle of the night, and that soldier jumped out of bed, into boots and a jacket, dove into position and started firing on the enemy.)
