Combat Tactics
Flanking:
Flanking is one of the simplest tactics we have. One group advances from the front and another advanced from the side. It negates cover, limits the enemie's movement, and hits fast. Easy to set up, gets results.

Pincers:
A pincer is basically flanking, but each team hits from a side. It's more useful when the enemy is stationary and in cover.
Wedging:
Wedging is when one group stays in a defensible position perpendicular to a moving stream of enemies. For example: in Warzone, uncoordinated groups of enemies will move towards bases in ones or twos. A group of Sierra Company fighters would form up in cover, and pick them off from the side. This tactic is used effectively in raids against uncoordinated attackers.
