Okay...since I just caused a Friendly Fire incident on the server, I'd like to help tweak a few things, just throw out my ideas to help keep FFIs from occuring so frequently. Especially the way my particular case occured.

One: Communications; Communications are Paramount to total unit coordination and Situational Awareness of ALL individual soldiers on the ground stomping boots, in an aircraft behind a stick, or in a turret manning a gun. Giving out small but detailed Comms about Location, Destination, (Unit) Strength, and Speed to Destination helps not only the Squad/Unit Commanders but also all the other men in the respective Unit.

Two: Fluid ROE; Sounds strange at first and the explaination will sound complicated to some, but it is VERY simple and Common Sense when you see it in practice. Fluid ROE is, simply put, the Rules of Engagement tweaked to a more urban environment where Situational Awareness is not only crucial, but a needed and very welcomed habit. The condition can and does change from Red to Green in a matter of nanoseconds for personal and unit defence, but the change back to Red or Yellow Conditions should automaticly take effect after the threat is terminated or indefinately suppressed.

In order for the later to work, the former MUST be established and kept at a high standard.

Communicate more, keep needless chatter to direct comms and texts, and be fully aware of pacified threats inorder to control the ROE and keep from having a Green Status after almost all initial engagements. Doing such will insure survival of your battle buddy and yourself in the field.
