If squad leaders set an enemy squad as the objective, the other squad will remain marked like they are spotted. Even if they go out of site.

Wow that's interesting, I can see all of the TG players getting tagged by the enemy and being hunted every map!!

Wow thats great and it never occured to me to try that !

when running a squad you can go into manage squad then select player and click finish to invite them, to goto page 2 of the player list, use the arrow keys

**Redginald** · 03-25-2008, 11:08 PM

Sweet, never could figure out how to get to page 2 lol

I dont know if everyone knows this yet but land mines will explode if the enemy walks right on them. Not sure if it is safe to crouch over them or not but if you protect a flag that only has one way in you will kill the enemy as they are comming in or if they shoot them you will have a warning that they are comming.

Silver taught me this one: Any point that is a capped by explosive device can be quickly repaired and turned back with a torch. This works great on maps like Invasion on the middle and East points. You can turn them back in a fraction of the time it takes to blow them up.

I thought the ones that were destroyed can only be recaped by by fixing them and nothing else.

Using the repair torch seems to work faster than pressing E to change it back to repaired.

The point that gets exploded that looks like a generator needs a repair touch to fix
other ones, like the missiles, can be repaired by any role

**jb4** · 03-26-2008, 06:44 PM

CPs like the center point on Invasion that look like radar can be repaired by E or the torch.

**Scarface6174** · 03-26-2008, 10:53 PM

That is true jb. however, I believe that a torch repairs faster than the 'use' button.
