How To Be A Commander (Dwight D Eisenhower Edition)

A Simple Guide On How To Become An Effective Field Commander , This Guide Will Teach You What Kind Of Loadout , Armanents , Tactics And Formation Commander Can Utilized To Become Better In Combat.

Introduction

Hello , As You Should Know , I Admired President Dwight D Eisenhower A.K.A General Ike During Wartimes Of WW2.

During That Time , He Proved Himself To Be A Capable Commander , Hence It's Inspired Me To Wrote This Guide , To Properly Explained How To Be An Effective Commander In Field.

For A Start , I Will Cover The Security Commander First.

I Will Make A Guide About The Insurgent Commander Next Time Featuring A Special Guy From Middle East ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Without Further Due , Let's Go !

Commander's Major Role

Technically , Commander Is Just Essentially A Rifleman + Binocular , Not A Big Deal , Except That Puny Binocular Can Rain Down HELL !

In My Opinion , Commander's Main Priorities Are To Watch His/Her Team , Planning An Offense , Putting A Defense , So Prioritise Your Explosive Is Not A Good Idea.

Instead , Maximize Your Weapon's Effectiveness By Adding Multiple Attachments , As I Mention In My Guide Previously , You Can Just Pickup Dead Enemies Explosives And Grenades.

Your Main Priority Are Heavy Bags And Light Armor For Your Loadout.

You Will Need Heavy Bags That Cost 3 Supply Points Because You're Gonna Do A Lot Of Shooting Alongside Your Fellow Teammates.

Light Armors Are Good Against Pistol Rounds That Could Be Lethal In Close Range.

Some Of Them Stated That Light Armor Are Useless , Hence Don't Use Armor.

Well , Since It's Only 1 Supply Points , Why Not?

Besides , Armor Only Offers Protection For Your Torso , Your Head , Arm And Legs Still Vunerable Though And It's Better To Have A Little Protection Than Nothing At All.

Spend An Extra Point For Mask If You're Confident That The Enemy Might Use Chemical Mortars.

For Your Sidearm , I Always Suggest Using PF-940 , M9 Or Browning HP.

For Your Primary :

Use M4A1 For Short To Medium Range :



Use FAL For Medium Range :




Pro Tips : Never Open Fire When Friendlies In Your Line Of Sight , Teamkill Usually Occurs In That Kind Of Situation.

Commander's Armaments

Commander Are Equip With A Binocular That Can Call A Heavy Fire Support That Could Turn The Tide Of A Battle.

Quick Reminder , After Successfully Called A Fire Support , You'll Need To Wait For 60 Seoonds For It To Become Available Again.

Fire Support Ranges From CAS ( Close Air Support ) , Counter-Offensive Support , Aerial Cover , And Gun-Runs.

1. Artillery ( Explosive Mortars )



Explosive Mortars Is A Basic Fire Support That Have A Capabilties To Deal A Massive Damage To A Group Of Infantries And Vehicles At A Designated Target.

Codename STATION Is The Security Team Firing Base That Responsible For Providing Fire Support For Their Team.

Explosive Mortars Can Be Used For A Normal Defense In The Early Stage Like Objective A , B Or C.

But I Recommend You To Not Using This Early As It Becomes Valuable As You Move Into The Later Objectives.

On The Other Hand , Your Teammates Can Handle An Early Counterattack.

2. Smoke Artillery ( Smoke Mortars )



Honestly , I Rarely Used This Becase It Serves Not Much Purpose Besides Turning Bot Into AIMBOT When They Could One Tapped Me Using A Mosin-Nagant While Being In Smoke.

I Only Use This As A Final Resort If All Of My Fire Support Are Diminished.

Better Be Utilized On A Potential Enemy Spawn Point As You Can Easily Spots Them Coming Out From Smokes.

3. A-10 Gun Run ( Strafing Run )



They Called This " The Sound Of Democracy " For A Reason.

This Armanent Have The Highest Probability Of Friendly Fire Because In A-10's Eyes , You're Just Same As Everyone Else ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Only Use These For Destroying Weapon's Caches , Softing Up Enemies Position And If You're Out Of Fire Support Beside This.

4. Minigun Helicopter ( Cleric )



Better Known As " Cleric " , This Monstrosity Could Rack Up Many Confirmed Kills In A Long Period Of Time.

Whatever Happens , Never Used This Besides For Final Objectives Because It's Crucial For Final Push.

When You're Calling For CAS In The Final Objective , Always Called Minigun Support First.

Why? Simple , They Provide You A Longer Breathing Room While They Try To Eliminate As Many Hostile As They Could.

Then If You're Feel Good , Then You Could Bring In The ASSASSIN.

5. Gunner Helicopter ( Assassin )




The Mother Of Security Team , The Hellbringer For The Insurgents , I Present It To You , The Assassin.

Assassin Is A Codename For The Apache Cobra Attack Helicopter.

For This One It's Very Simple , Always Use It For Final Push And Never Target It On Your Position.

Formation

There's Some Formation That I've Tested It With My Friends And Some Other Public Players And It Could Be Useful Against The Enemy.




This Is Perhaps The Easiest But Effective Formation I've Created.

The Green Couple Are Responsible For Calling In CAS. They Entered The Objective After Red Vanguard Secures The Perimeter.

The Red Vanguard Are The Advance Guard That Considered As Entry Fragger , Their Main Role Are S&D ( Search And Destroy ) Weapon's Cache And Capturing Objectives , They Grouped Alongside The Green Couple.

The Blue Guardian Is A Small Fireteam , Dedicated To Perform A Long Range Combat ( Recommended For Final Push) , They Have The Ability To Perform Covering Fire And Sniper Support , Plus They Can Tell The Green Couple And The Red Vanguard Where Usually Enemies Spawned.

Offense And Defense Tactics

The Broken Arrow Tactic :

Only Use This Tactic If You're Surrounded In A Tight Spaces By Calling A Direct Mortar Fire At Your Exact Location.

Quick Reminder , Always Prone To Abosrb Minimal Damage.

The Crossfire Tactic :

Form A Long Line , So You And Your Team Could Eliminated A Lot Of Hostiles At A Short Period Of Time.

The Wolf's Den Tactic :

Special For Objectives Clearing , Surround The Obejctives First , Breach The Door With Any Methods You Like , If You Have A Flashbang , Open The Door A Bit And Then Throw It , Or Just Kicked The Door Down , Plus SPOILER . Shoot Both Door Hinges And It Will Went Of Automatically.
Clear Every Room Until The OBJ Was Captured. If You're On Defense , Cover Every Entry . The More Entry Point You've Covered , The More Safer Your Team Become.

In The Nutshell...

I Hope This Guide Will Help You To Become A Good And Decent Commander.

And Remember , THE BULLET CASING ARE HITTING US !

Based off your previous guide history, I don't believe you one bit Maruki. This guide was pretty good, stellar compared to your two lazy guides.

[Kidd Dick Johnson]

good advice man , but makarov's free tho XD

[Daiku]

This guide doesn't cover most parts of the commander role itself.

- It's missing several critical points when calling in fire support, (directing a strafe run, etc etc)

- What are these loadouts? just stick to one gun for every range, hell you can literally run around with the M16A4 and still perform decently well from all distances.

Don't even bring a sidearm, it's wasting your points on adding more weight which eventually hold you back on calling anything in before the enemy commander does.

Heavy backpack is not needed for this situation, you literally get 5 magazines with the light backpack, which is 5 magazines of 30rnd 5.56, that should do plenty.


I will be covering an more in-depth guide about the commander, cross-referencing a few old posts which are far more detailed than this.

[PatrickIV]

I appreciate the guide and found it very helpful, but why did you capitalize the first letter of every word? Not upset or anything just curious.

[Kidd Dick Johnson]

Sorry Habit XD

[EmptyMag]

Please Format It In Standard English, Don't Capitalize The First Letter Of Every Word.

[NaCl]

TL:DR

[Robert Mugabe]

didn't read lol

[Kidd Dick Johnson]

I'm writing this coz through my observation , most of the player who choose the commander class plays like a nutjob , hence i wrote this guide

[kudash]

Nah, just sayin thah this guide is useless. Bots in this game so weak(yeah they still can one-shot you), that you don't even need to think. Sorry...
