How even are the teams supposed to be?

<div class="IPBDescription">Does the commander count?</div>Some people on servers have argued that it doesnt matter that the marines have one extra guy since ther commander is not really fighting..

I think this is Bogus and the way things are now, aliens could use any help they can get..

Also, Alien Hint: remember to build at least three upgrade thingies of each kind for maximum effect.. i hadnt realised this till just about now.

The alien marine teams should be even, but with one more marine, commander doesnt count since he doesnt fight.

Of course the commander counts. His abilities make his team MUCH more effective, and a good commander can totally screw over the ENTIRE alien team.

IMHO, shouldn't the aliens always have more players?
Aliens rely on numbers and speed, Marines use big guns?

Commanders count. THey are a vital member of the team. If anything i would make them count for MORE than a single marine.

I was alone on marines (command AND builder AND fighter) and i won vs 5 aliens.

I agree, the commander's abilities make him even MORE deadly than a gun-toting soldier, he should definitely count.
