Single
Player and Cooperative Tactics
|
| This section will
provide a few basic Rogue Spear tactics and how to use NATO 3 with
those tactics. |
|
| The mission is key |
Intel is vital, pay attention to what
kind of mission it is. Specifically, what are the Tangos wearing,
what sort of ranges will you be engage them at, do you need to
disable vehicles, and is it a hostage rescue mission? Do you need
silenced weapons? If in doubt, take them anyway. Better safe than
sorry.
Here are a few types of missions you
will be involved in and some ideas as to how to equip your team.
|
Hostage Rescue (short ranges)
- Use submachine guns for the assaulting teams with JHP or
JSP
rounds to avoid overpenetration. Also consider shotguns, but don't
use them in the rooms with hostages. They have a fairly wide spread
and can easily have stray buckshot hit hostages. Example, Rogue
Spear mission 1 (Museum),
|
Hostage Rescue (medium ranges)
- Teams entering rooms with hostages should have the same sort of
weapons as the short range hostage rescue scenario. Other team
members should take SD or SP weapons, either SMG's or assault rifles
depending on whether the Tangos have body armor or not. A sniper
rifle may also be needed, take a SP version, either the T.C.I. or
the Acc. Int. AW-SD.
|
Recon-only (any range) -
Basically take no weapons they just weigh you down and make you
noisy.
|
Assault (short range) - SMG's,
shotguns, or assault rifles. Don't bother with a sniper rifle on
these missions. You won't need their accuracy and they are all quite
heavy. Don't forget that stealth is your friend. Try the SP and SD
weapons first.
|
Assault (medium range) -
Assault rifles and usually at least one sniper. Consider a support
weapon or a Frag grenade launcher, but don't give the GL to a
computer controlled operative, they don't know how to use them.
Don't forget that stealth is your friend. Try the SP and SD weapons
first.

| Other conditions |
Against armored Tangos - SMG's
with AP rounds, shotguns with slugs or
flechettes, assault rifles
and support weapons with FMJ or AP rounds and any of the sniper
rifles.
|
Against unarmored Tangos -
SMG's with JHP or JSP rounds, any of the shotguns, and any other of
the rifles with any round except AP.
|
Anti-vehicle weapons - Barrett
M82A1 with FMJ or AP rounds is your first pick. The Walther
WA2000 with FMJ or AP rounds is your next choice because it is
semi-auto and can get off rounds quickly. The Accuracy International
AWSM and Remington M700 with FMJ or AP rounds are your next choices.
After that, and of the 7.62x51mm NATO or
7.62x54mmR Russian rifles
but they will have a hard time even with AP rounds.
