Construction
Barricade Formations
First lets talk about how the FOB is supposed to function in game-play. FOB, or for those unaware, stands for Forward-Operating-Base. As the title suggests, it is meat to operate as a offensive base used to creating a hard-point for static defenses, resupply, and observation of enemy movement. This means that it must be capable of withstanding counter-offensives, resupply the marines, and is able to keep track of enemy movement, in this case, xenos.
Lets talk about how to set up the backbone of a FOB, the wall.

There are many things wrong with this setup.
1. The barricade lines up with the walls.
2. There is a gap in the wall.
3. Plasteel barricades are not lined up.
A better way to have set this up would have been this.

1. The metal barricades are separated from the wall line.
2. There are no gaps in the metal barricades.
3. Plasteel barricades are lined up.
Static Defense
We can't always stay at the base to defend it, and sometimes we lack the manpower to defend all of the FOB. This is where static defenses come into play. Marines have access to many static defenses.
- Barbed Wires
- Automated Turrets
- Mounted Machine Guns
- Explosive Devices
Anything that can be used to deter hostile offensive is great for this role.
Barbed wire is the most common type of static defenses. It is cheap to make, only costing 2 metal per wire, and can be transformed into razor wires, which is great for keeping your main walls alive. It deters xenos as it damages them when they attack the wire, and it also increases health of the barricade it is applied to.
Automated turret is next. They are versatile, powerful, and very effective at keeping small skirmishes at bay. They are mostly used to make up for the lack of manpower at the FOB. They are much harder to acquire than barbed wires, but they make up for the fact that they are ranged and can effectively replace marines in times of need.
Mounted guns are force multiplier for marines. A single marine on a mounted gun effectively becomes an automated turret, as the mounted guns have high DPS and large amount of ammo ready to fire. It is fantastic for pinning down a chokepoint.
And lastly, explosive devices. These are great as the xenomorphs will not be used to dealing with traps, especially claymores. Claymores are extremely powerful, as it can stun a xenomorph that gets in front of it, and can even kill it outright if their health is not full. These are perhaps even better at keeping skirmishes at bay, as xenomorph castes with low maximum health can be one shot by it.
Defense
Now that the construction of your mighty base is finished, it is time to work on actually defending the damn thing.
