capturing outposts

[Army Musician]

As we all know In Game we have to capture specific outposts set.

For me that gets rid of any tactics playable by the commander.

Me I was playing commander in a game and I wanted to implement a flanking manouver but unfortunately I couldn't do it effectively because of the outpost restrictions.

Is it possible for the commander to set the outposts you go to and you section/squad is the only squad who can take that outpost unless told to.

Why couldn't you outflank the forces on the current CP?

A few move commands to circle around behind the enemy, shoot them in the back, easy capture, move onto next.

when you caputure an outpost it means enemy have to go and defend it therefore creating a weak point in the enemies lines, and thus allows you to push through

[bobfish]

That, I would say, is a case of map design then. If you have three "front line" capture points, then you can direct a small force to one to cause a diversion for the main force which is attacking another..

Outpost restrictions are what? I'm not understanding your post.
The Commander cant flank?

[Army Musician]

as in you have to go for outposts already set in a particular order.
What I am saying is when you flank and and take out post the enemy then has to go and defend/retake it, thus creating a weak point in the enemies main line from which you can exploit.

Being a commander, is where you are in charge of tactics

All I say is it possible for posts to be only cappable by sections set by the commander

so commander could say 1,2 and 3 sections hold the enemy and advance, while 4 section go round and capture point x etc, I wont go into any particular strategy, because I dont want you all knowing what I am going to do.

By doing it, encourages teamwork even futher both within section and sections working together aswell
