My friends, I propose a debate:
Surely by now everyone has seen this video:
So. You're playing Domination and it's the inevitable grind to get past the cooling towers and the bunkers to get to the gates to reach the objectives. It's hard work, not many teams actually pull it off.
Up to yet, I've only ever seen a company attack from its starting position - that is, they advance to their default objectives and attack them. But aren't OIC's missing a trick here? Allow me to clarify:

Definitions of spearhead on the Web:
- someone who leads or initiates an activity (attack or campaign etc.)
- the leading military unit in an attack
The way in which we're seeing Domination games played out currently is that there is no leading unit. Every squad and platoon is on an equal footing, each with an equal amount of defenders to fight past and an equal number of objectives to capture. I pose the idea that this is not how Domination should be fought.
Picture the scene:
The battle begins - Raven are defending. valor - attacking.Immediately, Valor neutrialise the defender's Command Network.
Alpha, Bravo, Charlie and Delta emerge from their respective bunkers and take up positions. They wait....
...and wait. Nothing.
The Command Network comes back online, Raven's OIC SCREAMS down the mic: "EVERYONE TO THE NORTH SIDE NOW! There's hundreds of them! WHERE DID THEY ALL COME FROM!!!"
Within the three minutes Raven's Command Network was down, Valor had manuevered their entire force to the north of the map, taken all four bunkers and cooling towers, and were proceeding to take A & B. The whole defense is in panic, no one knows what to do, squad members run in different directions as their values clash. Taking advantage, the attackers respawn in their default spawn points and attack the remaining objectives. Battle won.
I, my friends, pose to you the argument that attacking your default objectives constantly is an abuse of tactics. The Mob Mentality is far better than a skirmish.
Discuss.

i thought about this earlier, but i doubt the people on the south side who'd have to respawn very far away would be happy with it all, plus they'd have to run past everyone first...
so sadly it wouldn;t really work which upsets me as much as you, trust me
Couldn't they parachute in or use helicopter? make it a bit quicker anyway
My mistake.
