To stop speculation.
TGU will be offering a 2142 specific SL course. The course will be a 1 hour formal instruction focusing on standard 2142 squad leading tactics from the basics to fairly advanced map specific tactics. Following this formal course students are expected to demonstrate proficiency by leading a TGU squad in a live fire exercise on the Conquest server under evaluation conditions. The TGU instructor will be in the squad and will provide feedback over teamspeak after live fire exercises.
Each course is expected to last about a week. Students are expected to be fairly dedicated 2142 players with 8+ hours of playtime a week.
At the end of the course, students will be expected to be proficient squad leaders for 2142.
No prior TGU training is required. We will give preference to anyone that has taken previous TGU courses but all are welcome to apply. Acceptance into the course offered for that week is at the discretion of the instructor. The kind of people we are looking for are those of you who really want to squad lead but don't really know how to do so effectively. Students will be hand picked from sign ups based on need and experience.
I will be offering the first go round in training but other TGU instructors may pick up it as the kinks are worked out. Sign ups for the course will be offered within a day or two of this post. Training will take place on Mon, Wed and Friday evenings for the most part. Individual training is also available on a time limited basis.
We may open the formal training up to a large number of people and then limit the live fire training time to a few individuals. It all depends on interest and instructor time. We will do what we think is best for the community.
