** on the subject of "squad tactics" I wonder this: Why is it that if 3, 4 or 5 friendlies who are not otherwise affiliated all dive in on 1 con while he is engaged to a single friendly, it is referred to as "gangtarding" yet if all or most of the 3, 4 or 5 attackers are in the same squad it is considered "good squad tactics?"
I would not consider that good squad tactics, myself....... Reaper
if one was already engaged with the bogey........... depending on how good or how bad the squadmate was doing would be the deciding factor in if it was necessary for 1 other squadmate to come in...... then their is the skill level factor of the 1st one in to help the squaddie already in the fight, it might be beneficial to send in a backup wingman....... something like this would be hard to factor or discuss, just going by generics........
but I do understand fully your statement
