Assault Command for Teams?

[birdstrike]

I've had very positive experiences with using the Assault command since the recent patches, especially in MOUT. However, as we all know, this order is only available to squads, but not to split squads, scout teams or HQ teams. I figured the reason behind this was a design decision, because of a certain manpower needed to use leap-frogging effectively, but I realized that the Assault order can still be issued to depleted squads with only a handlful of men (4-5) left.

So I'd like to ask if it can be taken into consideration to add the ability to use the Assault command for split squads and teams consisting of 4+ men, too. This is especially needed for the MOUT HQ teams with their high manpower whose tectical usability would profit from such an enhancement, IMHO.

I'm guessing the way the 'assault' leapfrogging works is because the smallest directly controlled element is a 'team' whether that be one or five men, and squads consist of two or three teams. As this division is built into squads, even to Syrian squads though they can't be split (except the better branches), but not teams, it would require some new special coding to make teams 'assault' in similar way. Just my SWAG. It would be an improvement, I agree.

Yes, you're right. I fear that to be the case, too.

Though, I hope it's not and/or there's a way to implement it somehow.

When you have split teams, Assault them manually; i.e. move one team, then move another team, lather, rinse and repeat. I prefer doing this to doing Assault, especially in MOUT, because that way I have way more control over where the units pause.

Use quick to get the right movement speed when "assaulting" teams.
