    Style of teamplay

    When playing as part of closely working team/squad/group of friends what is your preferred style of teamplay.

    1. Fire and Manoeuvre - sudden and surprising firepower before moving off and attacking somewhere else
    2. Aggressive Assault - rapid attacks with little regard for casualties
    3. Dig in and wait - find a good defensive position and wait for the enemy to come to you
    4. Tactical Advance - cautious advances made with every angle watched and covered
    5. Slow and Silent - stealthy advances leaving the enemy completely unware of your precence


    Do you have a favourite moment when everything just worked perfectly?

    Honestly I do a little of each.

    I love working closely in a squad and advancing on an enemy position, then pouring overwhelming fire on them when their out in the open But I also tend to dig in and wait if I know where the enemy is coming from, often times I have a lot of luck doing this

    Fire and Manovere is preferred, but all those work better in different situations. In defense, of course I sit and wait, and when attacking in say, forest or city, I tend to go for a more methodical, tactical advance. Then, at other times, the best thing is indeed a rapid, crushing advance.

    Personally I prefer to fire and manoeuvre but I agree different situations merit different approaches. The poll kinda assumes you aren't play defensively but advancing.

    I really like hanging around in the same position for too long - besides its always entertaining watching an enemy squad investigating where I was a few minutes earlier

    In most games I tend to play defensive, let the enemy come at me. Especially in FH2 it's the art of picking a good orthodox position and ambush many enemies.

    But I'm also a great fan of reckless assaults, throw the nades, suppress them and storm their position.

    But I mostly wait and fire, being quite good at anticipating where an enemy wont look while they do pass in the nearby area of it. Again in FH2; one takes an MG42/StG44 and a bush on example Hürtgen Forest and one can have alot of fun picking off Americans.

    Depends on the game really, if there's no penalty for being suppressed in a game by gun fire the whole suppression and fire and manoeuvre tactics become useless.

    Being an RnL player however, those two things work well to pin down enemies, as it forces opposing players screens to haze out and there weapons to be un-aimable.

    I'm also impatient so I can't wait with an mg in hand for 10 minutes for an enemy to walk past, so I would say aggressive assault - but only when its certain there's a chance of surviving/or making a realm impact to the enemy team.
