You can now use the two boxes in the truck to build 2 more garrisons and by the time you did that the support players cooldown on supply box should have finished and he'll be able to drop you supplies for a 4th garrison. He puts his supplies down, you build a garrison, back in the truck. Truck can't drop supplies in first sector, so drive to a spot near your teams last point, get supply guy to get out with you. The other two key bits of advice - if you have a choice of locations for a garrison that are 50m apart, but one is in blue territory and one in red, build in blue (enemy have to get a lot closer to "lock" it).Ģnd is, if you want to be be the team garrison builder in warfare, get commander to drop you a supply truck and get your support player to ride with you. (I'm simplifying a bit as ideally the team should have close to the maximum of 8 garrisons at all times as possible). This makes a huge difference as on very powerful trick with placement is to put a garrison up that can be used both to spawn defenders and as an attack jump off.įoy for example - if we are defending mid point and its at Southern Edge, and the point we're attacking is Cobru Factory, I might build a garrison in D5, as people can spawn there and head either way.ĭ5 would be less optimal if the next point was Flak Battery as it's a long way the other side of the map. The tricky thing about planning ahead is the cap points are randomly selected - each of the 5 sectors has 3 possible objectives, so you won't know before the game which you'll get. Just pick the map you're interested in, tap any of the guns (as you just want to see the maps) and you get a scrollable map of the game. There's a site that was designed for artillery calculations (I haven't tried it for that so I can't vouch for its effectiveness) but it has the maps with all the possible cap points. Prepared is good, but you also need to "learn on the job" - a great garrison position in one game might be terrible in another (on the same map) as you generally need to keep the flow of the game in mind - and if you build the garrison in the same spot every time you play the same map the enemy are more likely to find it. Seems an obvious thing to say, but little friendly nudges like this keep the squad feeling involved/appreciated. Player gives you Intel on a tank, mark the map, tell command chat, then tell player command have been informed and thank them. Last piece of advice - keep morale up be thanking people/giving praise where it's due. Other squad leads let you know enemy pressing from west, warn the squad. Outside that, it's mostly keeping the squad updated with Intel from leadership channel.Ĭommander tells you a bombing run is coming, warn the squad. If your team doesn't have all 3 nodes (so the resources don't show +60/min on scoreboard) tell engineer and support players to get some built. But you're back to the herding by putting your OP down. Squad management is hit and miss depending on them having a mic and/or listening. There's some good YouTube videos on garrison placement and squad lead/commander, but you can't go far wrong by simply saying in command chat "let me know where we want garrisons and I'll go help". You're basically building spawn points to herd the swarm of blueberries to the right place. If you have a mic and an attitude as good as yours I'm not sure you can say you're too low level to SL.īefore you try it be mentally prepared to manage all three chat channels (squad proxy and leadership).ĩ5% of the SL job is putting OP down in a sensible place and building garrisons. I’ve enjoyed what I’ve experienced so far and really want to learn so I can be more of an asset to my team. I love sim games or any game that’s hella immersive honestly so this is right up my alley. I feel like I haven’t learned much overall in game because there’s just so much going on and to a brand new player with no tutorial type access at all trying to learn all these things mid game is kinda difficult. Like how to read it what the icons are etc. I’ve been soaking up a bunch of YouTube content in hopes to learn much more than the in game resources have given me. irl my leadership skills are great so I’m eager to take on the role, but the know how isn’t there yet. So from my perspective I don’t want that role yet simply due to lack of overall knowledge. I noticed what you mean about people not wanting to start squads, myself included.
