	*ATGs take more then one bullet sometimes. 3 shots to each crew does the trick till later when you’re surer of your aim. Never rely on the "one shot he's dead" expectation, you probably aren't that good yet. Firing until they despawn is a safe tactic a lot of the time, but don't run yourself out of ammo unless resupply is close at hand.		*ATGs take more then one bullet sometimes. 3 shots to each crew does the trick till later when you’re surer of your aim.

	*When defending towns look for friendly MSPs/FMS outside of town. That will usually get you out of the attack area long enough to get your first kills. Spawning inside a town you are defending when it is crawling with the enemy is often too late to be effective, especially if you are new to the game. Spawning outside the town you are defending and working in behind the attackers is much more effective.

	*Never put up a MSP/FMS on the "main defense mission" in a town. It’s extremely frustrating when you for example are defending the AB/bunker area and someone set up a "defensive ~~ms/fms~~" on that mission and you end up in the middle of nowhere instead of where you needed to be while you are being over-run, and time is critical. Frustration never helps win battles.		*Never put up a MSP/FMS on the "main defense mission" in a town.

	*Patience - one shot can kill you, no massive health bar or healers in this game. Play it like you would a real war game and you'll live longer.

Stopping in a safe (that means concealed) spot and looking around (binoculars from a distance is what the pro's use) is vitally important, as there are so many wily veterans playing this game that simply rushing in is a quick way to certain death.		* Patience - one shot can kill you, no massive health bar or healers in this game.
