GENERAL INFORMATION
- Unit Name: Katarina Marines
- Affiliation: Domino
- Classification: Infantry
- Equipment: AIMX-02 "Iron Skin", Cardio-Muscular Package, Armor, Harness Webbing, Glowrod, Knife, LWRC-45, Pistol, LMG, Sniper, Med Kit
COMBAT INFORMATION
- Availability: Rare
- Deployment: Minor
- Strengths & Weaknesses:
- +Highly Professional: Well trained, well coordinated, well disciplined, they'd put some special force units to shame with their skill.
- +/-Ruthless: They don't take chances and that sometimes means civilian casualties (especially when it comes to room clearing), but that also means they don't get suckered in and surprised.
- +/-Shipboard Experts: They live on a ship, train on a ship, and expect to fight on a ship. This means that most of their tactics revolve around what you'd expect to find on a ship and where they excell the most. Stations, urban settings, and building interiors also benefit from this, but they're lest adept at land and aquatic warfare.
- Description: The Katarina's Marines are some of the toughest trained and hardest fighting men and women in the Outer Rim. Generally recruited from frontier militias and planetary defense forces, everyone is a veteran of some sort of combat. Domino's training focused on shipboard tactics for assault and defending and included zero-g and atmosphere situations. That's not to say ground operations were ignored, a number of jungle and urban exercises were included with an angle towards asymmetrical warfare.
Upon graduation and acceptance into the crew, each Marine received a cardio-muscular re-work which drastically increased their physical capabilities along with subdermal body armor for added protection in uniform and should they ever be caught without. Furthermore, they're equipped with the best kit Domino could get her hands on or create when nothing else would suffice. like their iconic weapons; the Model-K Vibroknife and LWRC.
One platoon is always fully geared up and at full readiness inside the ship as first responders to any trouble from either amongst the crew or attackers. This is a rotating duty and takes place even when there's shore leave or other actions taking place. If the Katarina lands troops, this one platoon will stay behind to ensure the ship and crew are defended.
2 companies of 3 platoons.
7 platoons of 5 squads.
Divided into squads of ten.
- Squad Leader (1) - Generally carries a LWRC-45, a sidearm, a vibroknife, and several grenades (one bacta).
- Marine (5) - Generally carry a LWRC-45, a sidearm, vibroknife, several grenades (one bacta), and (on a planetary mission) a MPMS-66.
- Medic (1) - Carries a LWRC-45, vibroknife, a pair of bacta bombs and several bacta grenades,
- Marksman (1) - Wield's the Ranger Sniper Rifle, a sidearm, vibroknife, and several grenades. May switch out rifle for Shotgun or LWRC-45 on boarding missions.
- Engineer (2) - One will carry and operate the squad's Mb-835 LMG on ground missions while the other will carry spare ammunition and the squad's long-range/planetary comm unit. Both carry sidearms, a vibroknife, and demolition charges. On ship actions, they both wield shotguns and breaching charges.

GENERAL INFORMATION
COMBAT INFORMATION
- Availability: Rare, Unique. How many of this unit are there? Availability reflects a broad idea of how many of these units exist. Common are the main backbone units of the army using mainly mass produced items. Uncommon are unusual or less common units sometimes using minor production items. Rare are specialized units using limited production items. Unique are one off variants of the other types and have special features that makes them one of a kind. More powerful units are not as common, and specific named units are unique.]
- Deployment: Minor, Limited. Originally referred to as "Strength," this reflects a general idea of how many of these NPCs are deployed at once as part of this unit. Mass units are deployed in larger numbers, like Stormtroopers. Minor units see more restricted deployment size, like Shadowtroopers. Limited units often appear in very small numbers, like the Imperial Royal Guard. More powerful units tend to have a lower strength designation and availability.]
- Strengths & Weaknesses:
- +Top of their game: These are the most experienced and highly trained pilots Domino could assemble and are given the best equipment and ships possible.
- -Always outgunned: With only sixteen fighters spread out across two squadrons, they'll almost always be outnumbered.
- Description: The pilots of Tenebrae Squadron,
