Now that I have a decent amount of content with the TacticalWhiteBoard, I am taking the liberty of making a topic for my collection.

Below is a list of all presentations I have made as of 06 June 2005 (D-Day, by the way). I intend to add more as I progress, and into SOCOM3, providing they keep their word:

(I will keep this thread updated as I make more)

Feel free to post complements, complaints, and the like in this thread to your heart's content. I will edit this original post and comment about it in a following post if I update this.

And now without further Adieu, I present to you my ever-growing collection of SOCOM strategies, tips, tactics, and overall help throughout the game. All by me . [unless stated otherwise]

Nice thread. Better than adding a new thread every 2 days with another strategy.

Well the player watching the left has to move closer to the indention or snipe from the spanwn. The right side is harder to snipe, so with a small amount of people I do not recommend it. Also this strategy may only work for a round or two. They will get smart and maybe play a camping game or just gernade the hell out of you. The terrrorist willl throw gernades from over the bridge, bell tower, or anywhere near the right to hit your claymore and you. Also I like to lay down with gernades next to the pot on the other side of the halfwall because they willl throw gernades over once they figure out your strategy, which could hit the player on the left if he doesn't move up to the indention or if he is lucky he can hit someone in the base without even going over the half wall. Also don't forget the dumpster camping spot at the left side along with the claymore spot at the pot on the other side of the halfwall.

Great strats, wanderer. Damn, today I thought "hey, I'll make a FH! Wanderer hasn't done a FH!"

....godammit, lol
I probably will put up a FH one in the next few days though, since I've found some good strategies there lately.

Nice, I checked out your newly-added ruins one. I liked it, this is for the most part what me and my clan go for anyways, but you made it clearer and added some good points. The only problem I saw to the 2 paths shown is the unpredictability of enemy snipers. A few good snipers could fock this up somewhat. Otherwise, they seem pretty foolproof.
