Saving Marines and XCOM style usage on missions.

I was thinking that it would be cool if when you saved Marines or ODST perhaps spartan 4’s, being able to send them to a headquarters like in XCOM and training them and taking them on missions with you. Like flying your pelican in eith a swuad of marines you trained and fighting. Might add some unique experiences. Also hidden Chips Dubbo to save somewhere? Wanted to hear other peoples opinions on this.

I look at any opportunity to make marines useful as anything other than fodder as a good thing.

I appreciate some players like taking marines on missions, and I’m always up for new ideas. As long as taking them on missions is optional I’m ok with it, I hate babysitting AI characters. I usually avoid games like that.

Just like you said, that’s XCOM Style, not Halo style.
Completely different genres I really don’t wanna see combined in any way.
