Adrien Shepherd's story is my favorite out of all of the Half Life lore and characters. I know that the HECU were the antagonists to Gordon and the science team, but they were just following orders. They were sent into an incredibly hostile situation as a "clean up" crew. They were basically sent to their deaths. Seeing the emotions the marines have as their brothers in arms fall to the invading Xen forces is so intense. They obviously are still human and care, but they're given a gun and told to shoot or die.

Of all the Xen aliens that where send to invade Black Mesa i think the Mantas are the most terrifying.

Man this is pretty good! Its impressive to see how far SFM animation has come these days. Also I always found it sense of disbelief breaking that the military was sent in to kill everyone at black mesa.
