My new move!!!

**Guardianx11x** · 05-11-2007 12:43 AM

Alright everyone, today at Fall of Berlin I brought out my new move. It's something I'd like to share with all of you. I've named it the "Squad leader EMP." Today’s test subject was Chiefmedicman.

Chief, as always, was leading a squad and, as always, I surveyed that squad for familiar names. When I saw him, I knew he was the SL and would be the target. So I then gently placed a bullet between his eyes. It wasn't instant, but his SM's reacted, first one came to revive. Chief was alive again! But in that faction of a second (since I knew his orientation already and where his head would be) I landed a second bullet next to the first. Chief needed a medic. His medics had run away thinking “job well done,” it took a few seconds but another medic made the run back. Again he was revived....and again he was quickly dispatched with a single shot from my rifle. More seconds pass, as the Chief waits for the confused medics to return. They probably doubt his competence in combat at this point. So, for the last time, his squaddies made the attempt to revive him. By now their stunted movement had put them in a bad place. My team was bearing down on their position. One last time a SM managed to bring Chief back from the dead. Luckily, I wasn't using the Zeller, and sent another bullet from my larger clip soaring into the Chief.
This was the end of our little game. His squad was killed before they could get another chance. I paused….then reloaded out of respect for the Chief, sacrificing one un-shot bullet to DICE heaven, where the Chief would be for another 15 seconds, hoping that it may find him there.

Special thanks to Silver. This technique was originally conceived in a match against him.

Poor, Chief. I joined his squad in a match at Fall of Berlin. This was my first game for the night and all he says to me after saying hi is, "you ready to face the 3rd and the 7th?"

I even heard your name a few times tonight and it went, "damnit, that guardianx11!"

Good times.

Hahaha, those were good rounds. Back when I only sniped, I loved doing this!! It was sooooo hilarious to setup far away and ping some poor guy and have their medic run out and help 'em. The best is if they miss the revive and you get them. Then its a great long chain of hilarity!!

Only you could pull off something like that guardian

But it doesn't work on me !

Oh man. I was in that squad, and I was as compelled as one of pavlov's dogs. I just kept running back and ressing my boss. WOOF!

**thedogwarrior** · 05-11-2007 09:00 AM

Ditto on the WOOF.. I'm an automaton medic.. SL down.. REVIVE!

Nice games last night. I was surprised to to 7th Santa on the system and other 7th members who aren't usually on.

**Relmar** · 05-11-2007 10:03 AM

That's right. You have to shoot him while he's trying to hide in a corner!

Yes, as a medic I've learned to heed carefully the word "sniper." Even if I go for the revive, I only make one attempt and if the SL dies again, I check with them to see if they really want me to try again, and usually they're smart enough to say no.

But yeah, if I was a better sniper, I'd do that just for laughs.

There are a number of valid reasons to not attempt revives on a SL(rocket/grenade spam; enemy vehicle camping the body; the area may be far too dangerous to attempt it; etc.), but assuming the medic has enough HP to survive a bullet, a sniper is NOT one of those reasons. It may be annoying as hell to die instantly after being revived, but so long as no one else is in danger, the only thing taking a beating is your ego. No tickets are being lost, and the only thing that changes is the sniper's score.

Fehmart is absolutely right. There is a reason why I didn't put this topic in the tactics section. That reason is (drum roll)....this tactic only works against an inexperienced squad! Luckily, while Chief does a great job leading, his SMs don't always make the right choices on their own. I should have been running from PK rockets after the second shot.

I've probably killed more reviving medics than most could claim, but despite ALL my efforts (against a good squad and by myself) I can't keep a single one of them down. In fact, I often opt. not to shoot the SL first and gun for his Otis instead! It stays dead longer and puts all them at a disadvantage.

Final Note: There has only been one time in my entire recon career where I was 100% sure I would kill the reviving medic. Well, at least the first one. It was on Cerbere. I killed Bommando by the boxes SE of the South Town flag, it was close range. I was packing the Lambert. At this point I made the smartest decision I've ever made in a BF2142 situation. I put an APM on the critically wounded Bommando. There ladies, is your sure fire revive medic kill.
