<div class="IPBDescription">Team Plays (B-23, Motion... Set Hike!)</div> Wouldn't it be more easy for clans if they practice football style plays for ns?
Like a play can be called 3 Rine Sweep where three marines clear a hallway in 3 secounds. It would be more organized, and result in less casualties. Different plays can result in different formations. There could be also differnet plays for different situations. Operation Res 2-2 can be a play where the team of 4 marines (not counting 5th person, commander and the 6th person who defends base) goes off to get the two nearist resources. Other plays can be tought of, and the clans can practice those plays to perfection. For aliens there can be scouts that spy and lead the marines to ambushes. THe map can also be divided into zones. A "full back" marine can camp the middle of the map (critical strategic point). That way the marines wont be surprised from an attack. Since marines use guns, and mostly aliens don't, it could be possible for a formation of postol marines to camp a long corridor. It could be like the revolution war (Battlegrounds mod) in space.

    alrdy have most of it. Hell, the 2-2 thing was actually used on ns_veil in the cal season 1 ns championship match of eR vs ham. 2 Unammoed marines went topo while the other 2 built the armory - ammoed, and went west skylight. They proceeded to push up while the bb (base ****) stayed at main to reinforce any patrol that lost a man and the dead marine rotated into the bb position.

    that kinda thing (i.e. the alien ambush etc) doesn't need any detailed planning... just a good sense of teamwork and understanding of the other player's style, so you know where to lead the marine etc.

    That and we have forums on the board specifically dedicated to Kharaa and Marine strategy. You might want to look in there before starting a topic in General Discussion, especially when your question(s) would have been answered by reading previous threads.
