Chain of Command?

Post by Agrippa »

I signed up for the free trial and have enjoyed the experience, but I have a couple of questions. Is this game meant to be more free-wheeling or are you supposed to adhere to a chain of command. If so, what do the upper echelon players do and who are they?

If this game is trying to achieve a greater degree of realism, by having players work together in units, I am all for it. It appears, however, that there is very little coordination between infantry and support units. How does all this fit together?[&:]

HC control Area of Operations, fallbac, BDE postions etc. After that players post mission and you must take a mission to spawn, but after that you can play alone or with a group, or with your squadd. You will never be required to play with some set group.

Does your squad use formations and tactics, or do you just kind of link up and go for an objective in an ad hock fashion?

Hey Hardcase,

Just a quick note to say thanks for the air drop and glider landing the Black Knight Brigade organized over last weekend. After a few lawn darts, we finally made it and had a lot of fun. [8D]

Regards,

How do I find you on line? If I already joined a squad is it too late to join BKB?

You can always quit a squad. I would have to find a squad recruiter online to get you in the BKB.
