My mother is Gallente, and my father is Matari. My father was a mercenary himself, and he taught me the art of combat at an early age. Hence, I was born into the Federation and am an active Federal Marine, yet I prefer Matari technology. I often liaise with the Republic Command and have participated in joint task forces.
My father being a Matari combat veteran, I inherited my preference for Matari tech from him...and I use it to its strengths, always flanking, always making the most of my speed and agility on the battlefield, rarely if ever attacking in a full-on assault as is often the Gallente way.
I am of rather large stature, and so he groomed me ever since I began to shoot to be a Matari Commando. The day I obtained my first Matari Commando dropsuit with a combat rifle and mass driver was one of the happiest in my life!

((Ok, so
cloned mercenaries have been a thing for only about 2, maybe 2.5 years now. Your father could not have been one.
And people all too frequently misuse the term 'Doctrine' when referring to combat.
"Military doctrine is a formal expression of military knowledge and thought...describing how the army thinks about fighting, not how to fight. As such it attempts to be definitive enough to guide military activity, yet versatile enough to accommodate a wide variety of situations."
Saying that rushing in with a 'full-on assault' is the Gallente way is as incorrect as saying always staying at long range and using only long-range weapons is the Caldari way, etc etc.
Space combat =/= ground combat. ))

Correct, hence why he was a perfectionist
It kept him alive.
Also, Dagger, I was in the military (USAF). I was trained in air combat as well as ground.
Gallente tech is more suited to a head on assault when compared to Minmatar. This is all I was referring to.

My dad was Minmatar but never taught me anything. My mom was Intaki, and as far as I know, never learned how to fight.
I learned how to fight in an isolated Gallante outpost. I was the only person being trained and had about four instructors. They taught me all the basics. I learned how to use dropsuits, hack, basic melee and how to use a variety of armaments. My more advanced skills were learned during my two tours of duty in the Minmatar-Amarr/Ammatar Wars.
You'd be surprised at all the applications a Minmatar SMG can have in the right hands. Those Minmatar guys are some real hard asses, and if you think their army is twisted just wait till you meet their militias. Those SOB's don't care what gear you have or what gear they have, if they don't kill you they'll beat you an inch away from death.
Killing, it's what I do.

This is a bit awkward, but I never actually went through the same Academy training as most other State citizens have to go through when they are teenagers. My father was a mercenary who fought in the Waschi Uprising under Mordu's command. When I was growing up he made sure to teach me taistoiitsu so I could defend myself from any of the other kids at the Legion Headquarters who'd pick on me for being a half-breed. Those skills taught me breath control and hand-to-hand combat from a young age, and set me up for all my training later in life.
For a while a majority of my training comprised of VR simulations that showed me how to pilot dropships and other light cavalry units. I think what really shaped my combat style in the end though was my time in the Legion. While taistoiitsu taught me how to handle myself in a fair one-on-one fight, a majority of my missions out in the field were unconventional operations with an asymmetrical fighting force. The Academy might build up soldiers for head to head combat with external support, I had to learn how to fight under circumstances where I might be up against groups three or four times the size of my squad.
In that case, you have to stay mobile, ambushing and flanking the targets at every opportunity and moving to a different position just when they have you zeroed. If you can't pick off targets from long range, then you infiltrate the enemy and place charges in strategic locations to systematically break apart their ranks into groups you can manage.
Oh, and always have a fallback firing position. I can't tell you how many times I've managed to eliminate a squad by falling back about ten meters or so just to start a counter-assault from an area with even more cover.

Father was a minor gallente diplomat, mother was a caldari loyalist. Got in a lot of fights when I was little and developed a fighting style consisting of headbutts, locks, and good old fashioned slugging it out with the prick until somebody fell down. Mom taught me to fight in the old ways, archery, swordsmanship, and hunting.
Got expelled from school for fighting one too many times, and my father expelled me from the grounds. Being the half breed child who's only known for beating up someone else's kids does not make for a good interview. Turned to a life of crime and I took to it well. Was later "asked" to join the black eagles.(Turns out, several guns are a powerful motivator for taking a steady job, who knew?)
Underwent aptitude testing, worked as an individual operative on stealth and assassination assignments, with very few squad assignments. Even for those, I was brought in as a specialist and given basic autonomy pertaining to getting my objectives done. Some... events happened that lead to me leaving in a rather unconventional manner and joining clone ranks during Mordu's trials.
I'm actually not very used to working with a team and as such my performance noticeably declines when I fight as an integrated unit. I prefer to be somewhere high up, providing overwatch where I can be alone.
If you hear the words "WORTH IT!" look about, something hilarious just happened.

I used to work on a mining team with a bunch of Matari a few years back. We were like brothers. And they were the only family I ever had.
Every day after we finished our mining runs and send the raw Ombar off to the refiners, we would always go for a work out (those damn pods cramp your muscles badly).
Sometimes while we worked out we would take a few rifles down to the firing range. I always found the Gallente Rifles a bit too small for my liking. Then one of my mates told me to jump inside this suit I swear was made for obese people and shoved a Heavy Machine Gun in my hand. I fell in love with it and have been using it ever since. |

While my combat style has been versatile, my grandfather (in real life) was a sniper in the defense of Stalingrad, a decorated war veteran with 26 confirmed kills in Stalingrad alone.
Our family has continued his legacy. My father had Spetsnaz training and fought in Afghanistan amongst the Red Army, and I myself fought with OMON in Chechnya, 2003. I was my squad's sniper specialist.
I have carried my skills over to FPS games. I continue to stalk the shadows, and snipe from afar, always taking point and dropping UP from vantage points.
I can also play assault, when need be. But if there are no snipers on the field, I wield my rifle with pride and authenticity of a real sniper.
There is nothing more pleasing than watching cloaked scouts and logis cry against me and send me hate mail when I peg them in the head. I apologize for my eyes being overpowered, thank you. And by the way, I kill with Militia Sniper Rifles. The only way to go--skill, not power ))

Is it rude? I think not. When one is scarred from actual combat, is it wrong to drink vodka and let loose a little bit? To have seen your comrades die in front of your face at the hands of Taliban scum and know that you could have done fairly little to prevent it? Can you ever know that feeling of helplessness?
I can no longer atone for my mistakes during the Chechnyan War. I could only fight to defend the honor of the man who took that bullet for me, because he believed I had a future. I saw what I meant to him and fought that I might have a future.
More than half of my squad was wiped in Grozny. I had just taken vantage point over a small portion of Western Grozny, when some Chechnyans had leaped behind Lieutenant Kostov and three of my fellow soldiers and slit their necks. I had stopped one moment to check my magazine, and more than half of my squad had been wiped out. While they were gloating and spitting on my comrades' bodies, I took the oppurtunity and killed two of the four assassins, but nothing hurts more than knowing that if only you had moved quicker, if only you kept your eyes open wider, you might have seen those damned Terrorists...
Until you have experienced the gore and violence yourself, I don't know what to say. At times I've been lost for words. I don't think I could have recovered from depression, had not that missionary come along and give me hope when I lay in the hospital.
War is brutal. I cannot fight in real life war again, so the very least I can do is to prevent others from dying by taking out the enemy in front of me, albeit this is a video game, and it has no effect on real life whatsoever....but I do not ever want to have that feeling again. I want to protect my comrades, my nation, my people.

Thank you. I am glad that you respect your soldiers...
It saddened me to see, that, on a trip to New York to visit some of my Russian relatives, I saw American veterans on the street, homeless and hungry.
Please, do a favor for me, anyone who sees this...the next homeless vet you see, invite him to a meal with you, anywhere, be it fastfood or formal dining. Whether it is in your budget to go small or go big, even the smallest bit of gratitude to those who have been denied...it is warming.

Where I got my Combat style? For me and my entire family was it the rather regular Caldari way, first there was the military academy or "boot camp" how I like to call it and every Caldari who lives in the state has to join after his/her 16th birthday . This gives one the basics and if you were good enough could it happen that you get a job offer from the security office or division of the corporation you live in.
I was the only one in my family to ever get this opportunity and the payment was way better than being a steelworker even as a foremen, which made this decision very easy.
Like other sec divisions did we have to act as crime investigators, espionage defense, riot cops, security guards during mining operations on the planet and even if someone payed enough or if war broke out on our planet or station, also as soldiers on the field.
I worked in every part of it because it was in the contract that everyone had to have experience in every part of the job, except for being a guard during a walk through the swamps, that was regulated by a monthly shedule, a regular officer had at least I think 3-4 shifts in one year on the planet.
I worked most of the time in the C.I. and Riot control and im damn good at cutting up some of the damn local wildlife. |

I don't recall ever knowing my real family, iv been in the military for over 10 years now, my combat style has evolved from the standard gallente assault force to an elaborate wave of techniques designed to combat bolt shots, plasma shots, knifes and everything else that would be shot or thrown at me. all while doing the heavy hitting at the price of speed.

The ways of combat first came to me at the hands and voices of my uncles and cousins. The Metsar family are lower holders and retainers to the Ardishapurs. We tend to have many children and close ties to our family's cadet branches. Our purpose is to serve the Ardishapurs as military enforcers of their law, in their space. Hence from youth I was reared to fight in the family guard. My father is the head of the family, and I as his youngest son of many was most likely never to be heir. And so I pursued a military career in first the Imperial Guard, then the Amarr Templars, from them I learned discipline and precision. Then in a low point in my life... Bitter and broken... I joined the Bragian Order... And it was from them my poise structure was tempered with rage, ruthlessness, and brutality... A fury, when unleashed, apalled me... Thus I swore such a state could only be used for the Almighty... For in no other cause could such abominable emotions be just. So I gave my sword unto the Praetoria. In their guidance, I fight with both fierceness and restraint, like a flame dancing with the winds.

My combat style is, is many ways, my own. As an instructor at a prominent Khanid military academy I taught tactics for several years before volunteering to have (second generation, of course) implants placed to return to the battefield myself.
I have modified the classic Amarr battle tactics I once taught to account for both the new implants and uplink technology and have promulgated them through my old professional network so that they may be studied and disseminated through the other royal academies as the individual commandants see fit.

My combat style isnt really a combat style at all, as i was never a soldier to begin with; i was a pilot and later, Captain of a mammoth-class ship, T.F. Se'terra. (non capsuleer, i was one of those extremely ballsy human captains who took contracts hauling cargo )
That ship would have the most diverse crew in the cluster working at the same level of efficency as a capsuleer cargo hauler, simply because i enforced one simple rule:
"As long as you are in this ship, there is no such thing as Minmatar, Amarr, Gallente or Caldari"
Take that rule and apply it to a logistics Suit and you have my "Combat Style" |

To elaborate more on my "re-education" as he called it.....
The man who taught me what I know was a hard bastard of a Brutor, and a Former Imperial Navy Officer, name Yurius..... a name he took after his emancipation and subsequent acceptance into the Imperial Navy.
I came to him as an arrogant youth, and he beat me for it, in the open courtyard before 200 other prospective recruits, bloodied me, bruised me, broke my bones. He stripped me of the name my Father had given me, told me I was unworthy to bear the name of Kador Family and did them disgrace.
He said to me. "You are weak Ouryon....weakness serves not the Empire. I shall teach you strength. With that strength you will have proven yourself worthy of bearing the name your father gave you. You will no longer stand as a living shame to the noble Family whose name you bear."
He forbade all the other recruits to call me by my name. I hated the man for a time.
We trained that way for the following 4 years as the man shaped us into proper soldiers.
After a time he took ten recruits aside and stood us before another 200 fresh recruits, myself included amongst them, and said to us all.
"These ten are soldiers. These ten are what I will shape all of you into. You shall be strong, like them, and with this strength you shall Reclaim the worlds of the Heavens."
I was never happier in life that when he said those words, he became as a second father to me, where my own father had disowned me. But it was because of this man that I could return to my Father and demand my inheritance passed down from soldier to soldier. Something that was wholly wasted on him.
"You are weak Ouryon....weakness serves not the Empire. I shall teach you strength."

I originally learned my fighting style by just surviving. my mother died when i was young and my deadbeat father left not to long after, with no idea what race i was or what planet i was on, i wound up on the streets. by hanging out in space ports over the years i got to know alot of merchants, so eventually i decided to travel with them. those merchants taught me the basics of engineering, mechanics, electronics and how to handle a weapon, it didnt hurt id had experience with some of this before because i always had to hack my way into a building or build a shelter of my own when i wanted to sleep for the night. but traveling with them, id always arrive on a new planet in a new city. id roam these cities scrapping by and fighting my way through life cause theres always someone bigger. i learned head on was not always the best way to fight, and i learned quickly how to make do with what i had. once i got bored on a planet though id just hop another merch ship and be on my way.
it was fun while it lasted but one day i screwed up. none of my merchants buddies were in port the day i decided to leave from the planet i was currently on at the time, so i decide to stow away on some other merchant ship, but instead of a merch ship i hopped onto a mercenary fleet supply ship. when i got off i found myself inside a merc mother ship. i managed to hide for while but they found me eventually. id been in some scraps before but nothing like this. after fighting off and avoiding more than a few security teams they finally detained me. but my luck hadnt run out on me just yet. the commander of that particular fleet saw potential in me. so instead of dropping me at the nearest orbital detention center. he decided to train me. i was given old hand me down equipment and had my previously rough jack of all trades skills honed.
as time has passed since then, despite my lack of gear, my uncanny fighting style and tactics make me a "annoying little pain in the a$$ to beat" in the words of my seniors in the field.
I ask alot of stupid questions, Dont hate, educate.

As I child, I would pick a fight with larger kids ((please remember raven is about 3 inches shorter than the average merc)) and well I got my ass handed to me, as I grew older I realised little by little how to fight, then one day I got in a fight and well, my opponent pulled out some Nova Knives, after I left him to die for such cheap techniques, I got into a fight with a cloned merc, and killed his clone, almost dying myself, I then became one and learned trial and error with most guns, with the exception of the caldari weapons, and that's it I guess

Perhaps we should consider formatting a contest of sorts amongst the Classiarii.

I was first taught by the Imperial Guard back before I got the implant. However, I would attribute most my combat knowledge to be learned from my time after a promotion when I was made an officer of a squadron of Kamieras. They may not be of True Amarr blood, but they are by far the greatest example of combining swift and precise combat excellence with the grace and justice of spirituality of the faith. They planted the seed which stemmed into most of my combat style.

Against...
EACH OTHER! Only the strongest may prove themselves!
Shofixti beats an Ur-Quan Dreadnought and a Kor-Ah Marauder.

That depends on whom you represent.

We Amarrians know life is too sacred to be killed purely for competition. Yes, even clone lives of an immortal soldier. If we shall run any form of competition on this matter, it will be in conjunction with our current efforts to wipe out Matari terrorists.
Amarr are the good guys
Their way of the Commando seems right and noble
