They specialize in counter-guerilla warfare tactics, and quick hit and run operations deep behind enemy lines.
My question for everyone is: What role do the Marauders play in your Joeverse?
My apologies if this has been covered in the previous pages, I haven't quite gotten through all the pages yet!
In my Joeverse, the Marauders are the main Armor element stationed on the USS Flagg... basically an amphibious armor/scout unit. I use all the vehicles, which I think were some of the best "tanks" the Joes ever had. I use multiples of each vehicle. The Marauders function as a Marine/Amphibious Armor unit from the Flagg, or they can dismount and operate like a Recon/Scout team... Sprit and Low-Light make an awesome Scout/Sniper Team. Basically, this Sub-Team functions like an armored Marine Recon unit. Considering their leader is Sgt. Slaughter, I couldn't help but make it an Amphibious/Marine unit.
In my Joeverse, Falcon commands all the Sub Teams... so having a Marauders version of Falcon is PERFECT for my Joeverse. Seriously, sometimes I think Hasbro reads this thread and says, "That OliverBox is really onto something!"
