Guardsman

Guardsman is one of several different types of Marines exclusive to the Planetary Campaign DLC. This marine costs 5 Build Points to train.
== Description ==
Guardsmen are tough front-line infantry that can take a lot of damage (Planetary Campaign description).
* Fires long-range machine gun
* Personal shield protects from attacks
This marine upgrades the weapon of the Rifleman with the shield ability offered by the Medical Pod when towed.
== Usage ==
While having a higher damage imput and better defense capabilities than a shotgunner, they are also quite vulnerable to swarms. It is a viable sidegrade if there is a sizable static defense around the alien hives.
