Proudest Squad Leader Moments

Tipsi · Post by **Tipsi** » 2007-07-26 13:04

Hey guys. I was in the bath

today thinking about PR ( as you do) and I reflected on how much better 0.6 and my proudest achievements as a squad leader.

My proudest moment was on the very unbalanced(for USMC) map where there is an east and west beach, and a dam etc.

Not knowing of the current situation (we had lost the dam), I placed an RP just a few metres west of the bridge in a ditch next to the road and ordered the squad to retake the east beach.

We looked down the great hill of the bridge CP and saw that there was a convoy of jeeps and an APC just below. I ordered my engineer to place mines on the road so that we could ambush them. We managed to take a few guys out including the apc but we had to fall back as we were getting slaughtered.

We fell back the the rally point which was in a ditch just beside the road and decided to dig in to make our last stand. By this time we found out that our team was getting raped and had problems getting the dam back. I looked to the defences. We were pretty well dug in. By now the commander was screaming and pleading with me to take my squad to the dam to help get it back... but I ignored, knowing that if we lost the bridge, we would lose the ability to take the dam. Within seconds, the enemy pushed at us with at least 2/3 groups of infantry and vehicles. We were on the ridge of the ditch picking the USMC off as they crossed the bridge and onto the hills around us.

We already had a mine planted beside us on the road about 30mins ago so that even if we failed, we would take down at least one of the vehicles.

We battled on for about 30/45mins holding off countless attacks from the USMC, who tried and failed, to flank us, overwhelm us... But they did not succeed. We parried on till the last man, holding off what seemed to be possibly at least 1/3 of the USMC team of countless attacks. At one point they did manage to push through, but the well placed mine by my engineer halted their advance.

Given that the narrow hilly area helped us alot in our extraordinary defence, we did a great job holding the USMC off, for if we failed... I don't think our team would have successfully taken the dam.

We went on to win the game, taking both beaches with about 100-200 tickets remaining.

One of my proudest days of PR

So you people really mean that if I fire and hit a guy in this game he will go down? (just out of the sky)

can one shot kill, even if it wasn't a headshot?

Not usually, but 2 or 3 rounds will, depending on the weapon.

Okay, sounds good. In vBF2 (as you call it) i couldn't kill people even with 2 bursts.

Proudest moment has to be winning best squad 4 times on the trot with VOIP BLITZ!

Was a good day!

One shot can kill, but thats if the target is wounded or has no body armor

Usually it takes about 3 5.56 mm rounds or 2 7.62mm
No body armor, 2 5.56mm and one 7.62mm

Proudest moment was defending against waves of American Tanks assaulting the North Village with a pair of HATs, a medic who did not know what to do, and a "Im soo screwed" attitude.

Seven Gates as British, we headed toward the River Fort with the rest of the team, my squad had its own APC with a squad-crewman, all the squads attacked river fort from the west..we took a 'shortcut' and went from the south.
We started assaulting the River Fort with the APC covering our back, within minutes we advanced inside, cleared the local Chinese and decided to defend the fort as everyone else were advancing to the Temple and we had no commander, by this time the APC was a pile of smoking debris.

Couple of minutes later, a squad of Chinese approach from the north, we started picking them off from the Fort easily, allot of bullets later our sniper was running low on ammo, and to our surprise, the Chinese were attacking from both north and south, I asked the newly appointed commander for supply drops on the Fort so we can rearm our sniper, we got it.
So I split my squad, machine gunner, medic, me and a rifleman covering south, Sniper and medic covering north.
All of this is happening while the rest of the team is assaulting the Temple, and we're holding the Fort..we must have killed at least 40 Chinese.
Then a third Chinese squad comes and discover our RP - I go in to hiding so my guys can spawn on me..we were starting to get over run, the south entrance was crawling with Chinese and our machine gunner was having a hard time with them..but we were still holding it.
Couple of minutes later, more Chinese come on a vehicle and they go for the side entrance..South was completely over run and the Chinese were inside..fierce fighting inside the complex and I got discovered and died..we lost the River Fort and our pathetic team didn't manage to get the Temple, the game was lost, when the 'best squad' came we were number one squad with an insane amount of points that made me proud of my squad

You must not have too many achievements

There's nothing like grabbing a cold one and kicking it in a hot bath on a cold day while listening to some great chillout tunes.

Zatar Wetlands (Yesterday) I was SL because no one else was making squads. The other team moved quite swiftly and before we had our the first base, Farm, they had all the other bases. (We were MEC btw) So I took our squad around the mountains and came in from the south. Twice actually. The MEC and US scores were staying within 1 or 2 of each other and my squad finally got into the next base and captured it. It allowed the rest of the team to move in on Farm and we ended up winning by 30 tickets 5 minutes later.

w00t.

Proudest moment would have to be seeing the same people rejoining your squad every round.

When I as Sl managed to vote out of the server one of the worst smacktards known to mankind... I think it was nick_nack7 or sumthing..
Anyways he kept running into my tank with his vodnik untill he blew up and I got a teamkill for it, then he would proceed to blow our last armour up and teamkill everybody who spawned.. He lost us the round on that even though we could've won if we had had our armour in place.
