Defence:
Group
Defending as a group
is more complex than defending oneself. While each member wants to remain
dry while dishing out the water to the group's adversaries, one must take
care not to have any members caught up in the crossfire. At other times,
sometimes the best types of defence is a good offense.
GENERAL TIPS
- when
in the open field, keep the group moving.
A moving target is much more difficult to hit than one standing
still.
- each
member should keep an eye on their water level. One cannot
attack if one is out of water. When one or more members are running
low, it is a good idea for the group to look for a filling station
before being caught at less-than-prime condition.
- look
for cover. Groups that are not seen are much harder to
soak.
- carry
extra water (if possible).
Just in case one runs out of ammo and there are still enemies
between one's location and a safe filling station.
- know
the surroundings.
It helps to know the battlefield a bit before engaging the enemy.
If this is not possible, do scouting runs before any serious engagement
with hostile forces.
- know
allies' positions.
When travelling or defending an area, if hostiles attack, knowledge
of where other members are will allow those who are isolated to
quickly locate support while preventing mis-targetting allies
during a heated fray.
- open
communication methods between allies.
To prevent confusion and co-ordinate proper defence strategies,
all members should be aware of the general status of their other
teammates. Thus, if one team member is in trouble, others can
quickly come to their assistance.
