    TEAM: RUSH RUSH RUUUSH!

    TEAM: [Bluff] (to let them know that u are going to bluff)

    Global: everybody run to thus-n-such hive, quickly

    Global(teammate bluffing): TEAMCHAT, U ***!

    or

    Global(you): d'oh!! :\

    maybe not the best example, but just an idea I sorta had. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    This happens a lot in RTS games, you'll try to mislead the opponent by purposely broadcasting your intents, and then actually doing them. Sometimes me & my friends play Warcraft 3 and text-message our strats in-game to throw off hackers, and a lot of times it works. The key to defeating the strategy is to attack first and mess up whatever they were doing.

    love doing this, but gotta admit it don`t always work to the best advantage.

    <global.me on alien team>: Get out the comm chair i got a great strat that`ll make us win.
    <global.me again>: be their in a min just leave the comm chair open for a few minutes

    <global, me on aliens>: drop some ammo in X position.

    and always the fav!

    <global, me on aliens>: Comm drop me a res HERE!
    <global, me on aliens>: No comm, drop me a res HERE its clear, open!!
    <global, me on aliens>: drop some ammo health and a res node HERE commander!

    And this only works of course if your team follows orders or works together in the first place...

    I saw a pretty nasty tactic the other day...

    If you put (TEAM) before your name and use globalchat, it looks like the other team can see your teamchat broadcasts. Causes a bit of confusion before someone figures out what's going on.
