wrobel 40 Posted July 27, 2012 This is a question on squad leadership. I have a group member who insists he would be a better sniper than me, and he wants to take my position during raids. I told him that he would be allowed to take one member and raid Cherno, as he provided overwatch. If his mate died, I would kill him. I don't want to lose all of their gear ,as I have no faith in their success. Anyone have a better idea for squad leadership. I just need to prove that he can't snipe.

premiumkrap 41 Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) both of you take on overwatch with your sniper skills...no one said you can only have 1 sniper...use your skills together, this isnt a pissing match.and if he cant snipe...then let him go, so he can become a better sniper....

Todds 3 Posted July 27, 2012 Yeah what the above said. Sounds like a petty dispute. Why can't you work together instead of have to be better then one another? Killing him also made me giggle a bit. I see your group getting very far. /sarcasm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
premiumkrap 41 Posted July 27, 2012 yeah. dont kill him, it will only make an enemy. and an enemy that likes to snipe is not the enemy you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FrankTheDuck 99 Posted July 27, 2012 Too many snipers not enough soldiers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
csharp 47 Posted July 27, 2012 Sounds like pretty damn bad squad management. We dont have specific leader, we plan things before, together. We have no permanent roles. We are pretty successful squad, everybody has nvgs, weapons we like etc. If you insist to be the leader, and you want that your squad listens to you, dont be such an asshole.
