U.N.S.C.C.M (United Nations Space Command Colonial Marines)

This underused branch of the U.N.S.C was stationed as colony protection against rebels and their primary base was on Harvest. When the Covenant hit, the colonials held alongside the average marines but were no match in the end. However through a stroke of luck and great financing, the colonials were reestablished on December 25, 2555.

The Mk II armor was developed by the manufacturers of mjolnir armor to enhance or even replace the MkI entirely. It possesses a light shield barrier and standard bullet resistant armor. The visor links up to the firearm's ammo capacity similar to a Spartan's visor

Weaponry has developed gradually and the colonials are always tasked testing prototypes.Along with the standard MA5 and MA5b the colonials use a prototype of the MA5k to suit their enemy crushing needs.



The standard sidearm for these troops is known as the M4A3 handgun, a pistol modified to adjust firing speeds and take standard M6D and M7 ammo, virtually the same but stopping power differs. Relatively simple design, great effectiveness



For the larger set of weapons the armory is the WDT25,the "Waffe des Teufels" which is translated to "devil's weapon" and the 25 is to remind troops of the day the colonials were reborn into the U.N.S.C army. Firing 7.92X33 kurz rounds it cuts down enemies and light cover. Many colonials nicknamed this gun the MMG " medium machine gun" to humor the names LMG & HMG ( light machine gun and heavy machine gun) to say there's a middle type



A respected member of the colonials is Cpl. Anthony Danvers. Born on Reach, July 18th in the year 2530, Danvers was your average child who happened to have a fascination with the military life. At age 18 he signed up for the colonial position, went through the process of training and being a rookie, then finally passed with flying colors alongside childhood friends Andre Wilson and Woodrow McCoy.These three happen to gravitate toward the MkI armor with pieces of MkII namely torso armor they customized. Danvers has a fiance who happens o be his childhood friend named Marrissa and he swears to keep her and his family safe on Reach at any cost. " With all the devastating new toys we get, there's no way in hell covenant are gonna get to Earth without some serious bloodshed on their side and for damn sure aren't gonna touch Reach. Oorah !"



Vehicles are key to any army but these troops rely one standard vehicle and a few of their own:

The M17LRV is a prototype descendant of the warthog, agile and loaded with a rocket attachment on the turret it mows enemies down in seconds with 14x5 anti-material rounds and a SPNKR loaded in the second turret.MkI looks very similar to its predecessor but the MkII adds the rocket capability along with MG turret

Recon hornets have no armaments but is fast, about pelican top speed. It seats one pilot and contains a back storage compartment.A simple prototype, but only used on Reach since all blueprints were destroyed

Finally they posses their own pelican variant, known as "Marauders" armed with missile pods on top and standard guns for a true "iron fist in the sky" as Pvt.MCcoy calls it:

The U.N.S.C.C.M are the underdogs of the U.N.S.C. army core but perform well with the right amount of pressure applied, for example Reach didn't fall so easily with their assistance to Spartans and O.N.I. They are true grunts in the eyes of a D.I. but heroes to their fellow troops. "If it weren't for us, were would your precious spartan laser be? you're welcome"- Pvt. W. MCcoy
