    Anti-Tank a good squad killer?

    I happened to just think about how much damage AT rockets did and wondered if it did anything to people. If this is the case, I was just wondering what you guys thought of having a squad of AT and Support, cuz AT would have infinity rockets to totally deal massive kills to the enemy, and support has a great machine gun to make up for the ***** willow SMG AT has. Please remember I'm not ingame so take it with a grain of salt.

    that would be badass, but a squad of medics and assaults would destroy them. How ever on a pub server they would be unstoppable

      The splash on an antitank rocket is very minimal, meaning that you pretty much need a direct hit to kill.... saying that spam a rocket into a mass of bodies and medics trying to revive them and you will waste them all.

      Also the rocket is awesome to pick off snipers from range.... maybe its just me but i find wasting infantry from range with these rockets hillarious :laugh:

          The problem is the support guys don't really do a good job at suppression. The gun is pretty inaccurate, a better setup would be one support to resupply the AT's and some medic/assault to help take out infantry that get missed by rockets. But a single rocket guy and a single support guy do make a decent team, but don't count of the support guy for much help other than for spotting, resupply and the occasional pistol/mg kill.

            Ok, so something like 3 AT, 2 support, and a Medic Squad leader. Would that roxorz or not? That sucks about the splash damage, but I guess it makes sense...

            See, the two support can cross fire so that anyone who gets close gets killed and the AT would fire at them from afar. Then, if anyone gets hurt, or there needs to be some kind of accurate gunning, the medic is there just in case.

              It is funny when you put a rocket in a guy at 10ft but killing a sniper at range is great. i would have to say my favorite thing is firing a rocket at a buggy headed away from you and guessing just right and flying better BOOM!! I had a friend riding on the gun of an MEC jeep he watched me fly the thing right up there tailpipe...

                It is pretty funny to kill someone with a SRAW when they are not in a vehicle. I remember when I was playing a sniper and as I was looking around for a target, I saw a rocket coming right at me through the scope. I just looked at it like a moron and thought to myself "Agh Crap". Boom! I got nailed. I have hit people with rockets several times, and it feels good, it seems overkill though. The rocket is a lot more accurate than the gun the AT guys get though, so what the heck.

                  I laugh every time I do this and the guy that gets killed starts crying about it.

                    And more to the point, if you have the weapon out, are you really going to change it to engage in CQB with someone? In that time that you switch, you're dead. Might as well use the weapon you have.

                      Seriously, this is the best squad I can think of besides one problem. They wouldn't be the best vehicle squad. They have no engy but they could always call for one, but I can't see this one trying to work for a BH. But they could prolly own other vehicles. 3 AT, I mean c'mon, how can vehicles even stand a chance? Plus everyone has armor except medic so its prolly the longest lasting.
