OK, This isn't rocket science. I will admit that first off...
I have recently spent time this weekend skirmishing with my newly upgraded M24. I was actually rather impressed by my results and have learned some ideas and techniques that seemed rather effective. Some may be overly obvious and elementary, but oh well. OVERVIEW: Environments: Woodland, Hills, and Urban, low to moderate wind. Rifle: Upgraded CA M24 with 300% spring. Scope: 3x7 Results: Mixed 4 kills at 200+ feet TACTICS EMPLOYED: Woodland: As it would seem, this is a difficult terrain from the get go. In this case it was not only wooded but also on an incline. There were many dead and fallen trees for nice cover and many places to get a good rest for the rifle. But the most crucial element in this place was the use of a spotter. Even with a scope finding suitable targets can be very difficult. And even more, difficult is the task of pulling back an immensley heavy trigger pull. This causes you to lose sight of the round as it travels. Your spotter will be helpful in aim correction. It is in this environment I got a 150ft confirmed kill (with some very excited witnesses). Learning to contort your body to odd terrian can be plus in this area. Hills: This was the most diffcult terrain work in. There were a series of mounds and hills in an otherwise open field. Basically two teams charging one another. Very much in the nature of trench warfare. The most diffcult things being target aquisition and wind (due to relative flat terrain. Your average target was the size of a head. Actually your ONLY target was the head (unbless you got lucky. The most effective tactic seemed to be simple providing cover fire. Firing over your advancing team, and over the tops of the hills (average hieght about 6'). At the very least you can try to pin down any opponent you can't actually see (with any luck that is). You have major issues getting to the tops of hills to aquire targets due to the large amounts of cover fire heads your way. I was able to get in at least one kill at about 125'. Urban: Much easier to work in urban areas. this was due to have access to a second floor of a building. this provided the obvious advantages, clears shots for one. But again the wind caused problems. The area was divided in the center by yet again another hill. The same strategy is applied here. Providing cover fire for advancing units. I was did employ an interesting strategy when attacking units here getting too close. I would have a second man with a AEG lay down suppressing fire while I picked targets. Using all of these techniques I achieved 1 kills at about 175' and one at 215'. Now I am not saying anything I did was extraordinary or mind blowing, but I figured I would share a few things that wound up being very helpful during our most recent skirmishes. -------------------- <span style='font-size:10pt;line-height:100%'>Yod9
