Structure
The 1st NC Tacial Division currently consists of two unit types.

I. Infantry Squad(s)
II. Recon Squad(s)

Infantry Squad
The Infantry Squad member is the all purpose rifleman who can hold or take objectives or perform various mission specific duties.

Recon Squad
Scouts are a well camouflaged, lightly armed infantry group consisting of multiple trained individuals to provide intel on a specific target or area of operations.

They will not engage large targets (unless engaged or their life or mission is in danger), but relay the information back to the squads for appropriate action. In case of the loss of radio contact, one of the scouts should, if possible, return to the main Squad (or the closest infantry squad it there are several) with his intel. The Recon Squad Leader will make the decision to engage the target, hold position until the squad moves up, or avoid contact. The scouts will be required to utilize camouflage to a greater extent than the average rifleman to avoid detection.

The scouts will work with and support the squads to accomplish the mission at hand, or work to achieve an objective highlighted by the Recon Squad Leader independent of the main mission.

The ratio for Infantry to Recon squad members should be 75% (Infantry) to 25% (Recon) unless the mission dictates otherwise.


A note from the Recon Squad Leader

My thoughts ,
Scouts and Sniper teams and the like support the all important gunfighters
through timely intel and precise fires on high value targets. That being said the scale of and the time constraints of the games makes traditional scouting techniques difficult to pull off , "CTR "or close target recon hard to pull off because we aren't out there long enough for the bad guys to get that lazy , mostly anyway lol. Hard to do zone or even a good wagon wheel on most fields due to field size. We modify our tactics , follow the commanders' intent , focus on the mission and support it by showing up where the bad guys least expect , deny them avenues of approach to objectives and take targets that get sloppy behind the lines , counter enemy recon and plug holes in the defense. Get back to basics , this team was dangerous because everyone was a gunfighter and focused on the mission." Get me that tank " " Go get me an antitank gun " "Hold this spot" "go get me that pilot" flashbacks anyone ? and little groups of gunfighters would disperse with their squad leaders and handle it , no muss no fuss. Build your gun fighting skills : Speedball to get used to getting shot at and moving under fire , Lane training to learn how to take out small mutually supporting positions, Pistol work close range high speed movement multiple targets. Field craft the art of not sounding like a herd of elephants in the trees , when you are moving be looking for that next piece of cover "saying to yourself if I get shot at right now I'm ducking there" build up everyone's skill level to the point that we are one big dangerous box of Lego's , get to the point where the other teams only exist to provide us with pop up targets
