[Update]Rain of the MRF

Bah. The whole Lone Wolf thing just doesn't work for me, haha. I love to command other players as a fireteam leader when I can. If you ask me, four mediocre guys that know how to work as a team can beat one seasoned player any day. I've been lit up by players playing their first game when they worked as a team, and I've been able to take on seasoned "vets" by working as a team.

+1 the more angles you have on your OPFOR than just your own...the better chances at winning. There really is strength in numbers, even in airsoft.

Odd coming from a guy named "Lone Wolf"

Oy...I lurk the forums!!!

Agreeing with LWs post pretty literally; I've found in AS during firefights, the team with the better angles always wins. Always. Atleast where I play. And not even neccesarily better angles, sometimes just MORE angles. Angles angles angles, that's what it's allll about I've come to find. That's why getting flanked, though simple, is so effective. The more angles you're recieving fire from, the more pinned down you feel, and...really are.
and...well it's kinda hard to achieve this alone!!

I wasn't saying its just me v. all, just that i prefer to not carry around a four or five man team. I need guys on my team, but i keep in contact on a radio...plus, how would it look if its me with a four foot long rifle and then a bunch of guys with AEG's? .....just not my style

You would probably look like a DM....

I agree with DT and LW. Using fireteams/squads/platoons will increase your chances of defeating the enemy no matter what the objective is.

sticks

Very clever, Sticks. ha....ha...ha....But i just don't see myself with a bolt action rifle with a scope on top in the middle of a squad turning out well. But to each his own.

I do think you have a point there. I've seen people at my field who stick in squads and really stand out because they've got an L96 or BAR 10 in a firefight, and, well...they're not really doing much, to be honest. They're just pumping out a round every time they work the bolt, and it's just that they could be better off for themselves and the team if they were somewhere else, perhaps alone, not fighting down in the grit with the CQC and other field players.
If that makes sense
