Just played an Oman server & I found myself a bit bored, so I went ahead & started using c4.
Instead of using the classic jihad jeep, I was setting up IED's with c4.

Just c4ing the sides of the commonly used areas of the map... Put the 5 pieces of c4 on the side of the road, perhaps in some grass to hide them a bit...and simply wait...

This only works on 64 man severs...because any smaller and you'll find yourself waiting for people to use the road, wasteing half the round.

So I was simply putting IED's all round on certain areas in roads and it worked very well.
I ended uo going 27-0 for the round...I killed like 6 tanks & the rest were APC's or jeeps.

I got a few pisses off players cursing me to lol...But its very effective especially if the roads used 24/7.

SO what terror tactics besides the jihad jeep do you use?

I guess I just dont have the "horse sense" you obviously do.  I tried the IED thing, and sat there staring an empty road the whole round.  I was obviously planting on the wrong roads.

Maybe I will have to try that again.

Well the server was full...64 man..so the roads were always being used.
Just make sure you find a good spot where you can see the road, but they cant see you.

I tend to use sneaky tactics, such as hiding behind/under things while someone rolls in, caps the flag, and rolls off again, so I can step out and recap it.

There's also the 'flying mine disarm', where you run an FAV at an anti-tank mine and bail so it trips it. Wasteful, but good for clearing the way for tanks.

There's also the age-old tactic of provoking an enemy into chasing me, and holding him off the rest of the team. Best done with the PKM and a chopper.

on same said map, camp the mec airfield (as usmc of course) from the hotel hill or the const. site hill with an eryx, preferably in a squad of said eryx players, with a support guy and rape the jets on the runway. from 250m back if you shoot an eryx just when the jets spawn you can hit them before they get airborne, time the spawns between kills.

Oh God, this reminds me of the thread someone started a long time ago about adding the need to urinate to BF2, tasteless (if funny) stuff...

Then again, you know what they say, when you're getting murdered, raped, or robbed, the cops are having donuts and coffee.  But when you can't find a public toilet and you need to take a piss or you'll explode, as soon as you sneak off behind some bushes a cop will be there to tap you on the shoulder...

Where does it say in your stats, the ratio of competent : incompetent players killed?
Or is a kill a kill?

i don't understand what makes this a "terror tactic," as in this is something only terrorists do?  it just sounds like a roadside bomb to me, a tactic any soldier who can would make use of.

Sneak into enemy bases and hide C4 on the vehicles, especially choppers and jets..  the just go away from the battle and hide- an unmoving spec ops is invisible on scan/uav, so you can just sit and sit, and wait and wait...

Don't blow the jeep, or the jet, or whatever as soon as you see someone get in...  no- wait until that tank pulls into a crowd of his friends/your enemies trying to cap a flag and boom!!  Get all of them at once..  Let that Mig get right over the carrier on it's next raping-run and boom!! Give your teamates the best fireworks show ever!


Or

Spawn as engineer and go to the rooftops.. when enemy armor/apc's come to cap your flag, drop your mines on top and around them from above..  I got expert explosives like this, and still use it frequently. Experienced tankers will jump out and wrench them away, but when his n00b teammate in the Jeep comes driving up, he will kill them both, and you just laugh!

Put mines about 2/3 the way down the runway, by the time the pilot sees them, he can't do anything about them, except divert and crash, of course.

Put mines in the backseat/on top of anything- maybe 4% of all players inspect their vehicle before operation,  I am one of them... because I am one of them that will booby trap the shit out of them.

Put a claymore in the back seat of anything..  just so wrong, lol.


Booby trap the wreckage of blown assets... when some hapless engineer comes for his point, let him get it to the point that it is just repaired and then blow it up again and kill the engineer in the process!


I am a firm believer in guerilla warfare in BF2, and try to employ as brutal and psychologically damaging attacks and traps as possible.  You know you have succeeded when enemies stop even looking in the direction of your chosen flag defend radius.

Not so muck a terror tactic but one that I enjoy that drives tank players nuts is when they are camping the airfield at Wake get in a fast jeep and start driving circles around the tank - it annoys them to the point they start spinning their turret trying to shoot you, but if you go fast and tight enough only the best will get you and the point of it is to give your anti tank guys clear shots at them.  Works every time.

I've recently been using downright sneaky tactics. Not exactly 'terror' per se, but heroic charges against enemies in order to take 4 or 5 down with me, pistol sniping the spec op gits trying to cap a base, running to enemy spawns in order to spot vehicles, and the like.

Also, hiding is another strategy I've taken to using.

is it posisble tokill the drievr ofa tank w/ a grenade by dropping it in the tank? otherwsie, i don't really use terror tactics. althouhg I ahve used some sneaky tactics before. on wake, i think I was PLA, landing on the arty island to mount an invasion of the carrier to blow the USMC assets ( it's a technique I like to use. I also tend to kill a few USMC while I'm at it, but I don't spawnrape.once, a guy discovered me, I think he was about to do a spot when I stoppe dhim by giving him a shower of lead. anyway, when I'm on the carrier, i usually blow the USMC assets, and once,i ahd JUST finished, and a jet spotted me, when it was landing. i opened fire, not really thinking I wouyd survive, when I got a kill. for the uninitiated, i had just sniped out the pilot of a F35 w/ a soec ops gun. either tyhat or the j10 had really done it's jon and the f35 was so wea I killed it. also, severlatimes I ave snuckup and pout C4on a tank. wait for ti to rumble out of blast range, and BOOOOOM. unfortunately sometimes the C4 misses and blows you up, but still...........)

Best place to set up ambushes with C4 is the pinch point road in Jalally right upto the mosque.  All their armor has to go through this point and there's  a lot of hiding spots there.
