So here are random ideas for FULL SQUADS iv'e been having lately. I think that individual gameplay is very fun but we have all explored to its full depth the limits of a single merc. Now its time to start getting into Organized squads.
The concept is pretty simple.
in MAG it was almost a RULE for high level players to carry the equivalent to our Dust514 Nanite injectors.
EVERYBODY would carry these and it was proof of MAG's superior teamwork strategies.
Now consider the following:
1 Cal Scout
4 Cal Assaults
1 Cal Logi
All 6 Soldiers would carry 1 Nanite Injector
the Scout should CArry The Nanite and a Cloak
The Logi would carry the Nanite, an A.scanner in case the Scout is downed and 2 Proto Hives.
The idea is simple.
Nanite injectors Recover a certain amount of Armor. But ,due to some strange reason i dont fully comprehend, shields are
always restored to their 100% capacity, or at least to 75% and then keep regenerating.
This means that This Caldari Squad would get in a room, clear, revive their downed team mates
and have them full shields inmediatley.
The cal scout always runs cloaked very close to the rest of the squad: he provides passive scanning , emergency revives and Covers the advance of the squad (their backs)
The Cal logi, hes a Tank. He soaks up bullets, attacks , provides ARMOR REP AND AMMO to the rest of the squad (though nanohives).
Of course he also revives and Scans in the case the Scout is not around At the moment (dead, hacking a not so close objective,changing fits etc...)
The Assaults would just KILL and Revive.Advancing at a solid pace with a variety of weapons that suit them L AR's and RR's for example.
would or wouldnt work? Discuss

Thats the point of my post. It is viable, at least for Caldari Soldiers....

If there is something i learned from MAG is that ta Zombie Squad always wins.
There is no way a single , or even 2 Amarr Proto SCR users can take down 6 Cal soldiers, Specially the cloaked Scout.
Amn only ONE is needed to survive and the whole squad is revived. How long can the Amarr soldiers keep downing the Cal soldiers?
Again,its not Equipment focused but more of a matter of skill.
If we talk about equally skilled players, at least 5 AMarr SCR users would be needed to down this squad.

Or 6 cal Logis With a pwerful defensive Nanohive spam? The thing is i wanted to abuse the fact Nanite injectors Restore Full Shields, and Caldaris are prime shield tankers XD
