Re: How do you get commander points?

According to the manual, the final score is the average of your teams running score (it takes into account people who play but don't finish the round).

You also seem to get points when you use 'commander actions' i.e. when a squad leader asks for supplies and you drop them you get a point, but you don't seem to get the point if you drop it w/o being asked.

There are a load of threads about this in the general forum (some of them a bit heated too) :)

You don't get points for arty and never did.

It's really really amazing how many people recently have said "Don't you get point for arty" and have been playing commander for months thinking that they did. MAybe now that the word is getting out that they *don't* get points there'll be more room for *better* commanders.

what do you mean by teams running score?

You get one point for artillery not 2 per kill and its just one even if you kill 10ppl. The rest are a mix of supplies orders, etc. Hard to tell.

i think i've worked out that if you say *class* spotted and one of your teamates kills the thing you've spotted you get a point.

SerbSniper1 and lil_jimmy, I'll have to see scrteenshots before I'll believe that


The running score means that the game takes into account all the players in the team, even those that may have only player for a couple of minutes, and not just the final score of the team at the end of tha game.

Re: How do you get commander points?

i just played commander and at the end i had a score of 46 under the trophy icon, no teamwork points, no kills and no deaths. We won the round. Does that mean i got 92 commander points?
