Berlork heavies poured fire as they moved, pursuing the Homo Sapient targets.  Heavies were the more advanced troopers, who were granted heavier armor and weapons naturally, but also kinetic barriers to shield themselves.  The average soldier was a Thrall, a barely thinking individual whose only task was to fight and eat.  During times of war, Thrawls were harvested from the swamps, where they were little more than savages who hunted for food in roaming packs.  By fitting them with armor and weapons, they were cannon fodder for the Heavies to use as living shields to soak up enemy fire.  Since many of the Thralls were shorter than the Heavies, firing over their heads was a simple matter.<br/><br/>One of the heavies heard the order being given by the humans and saw them begin to retreat.  He charged forward, knocking Thrawls out of his way in his pursuit of the humans.  He saw one that hadn't retreated yet and he used a mental command to his suit to switch to stun rounds.  A burst of stunner was leveled at Jules' chest, and fired.  The slugs were designed to cause a two-part punch to the target, striking the target with enough kinetic energy to briefly stun just from the shock of impact, then a burst of ionized plasma caused muscle spasms and convulsions, putting the target down.  It wouldn't last long, but it would be long enough to get overwhelmed and taken into custody.
