General Tips
• When a team is shot at or spots an enemy for the first time, the team cancels
its goal. For example, if you issue a Move command and the team is fired on
for the first time, the Move command is canceled.
• If the team leader is wounded or killed, the team’s goal is canceled.
• The more intense the suppression fire, the closer safe terrain must be for a
team to move to that terrain.
• You cannot place individual soldiers, but you can issue a Defend order with a
very narrow scan arc in the direction you want the team to cover. This causes
the team to reevaluate their cover based on the new scan arc, and position
themselves better.
• Rallying troops doesn’t happen immediately. Any leader can help to rally
a soldier; the chance of doing so is based on the leader’s proximity and
leadership ability. A soldier can also rally himself given enough time.
• When you have no specific plan, put troops into defending mode.
• Don’t assume that because you can see the enemy, your soldiers can, too. Hide
your team, but don’t forget about them.
• Set up your teams to enfilade the enemy (catch them in a crossfire)
whenever possible.
