Assault and Support units' role | Tactics Battlefield 2142 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Rule number 1 - give ammunition, heal and revive your teammates
Assault soldiers, as the only one, have medic hubs and Support units carry boxes with practically unlimited ammunition of all kinds. Supporting other soldiers by supplementing the reserve of bullets and healing allows soldiers to live a bit longer and perform duties on the battlefield. This aspect of the teamwork is significantly useful inside Titans, where instantaneous death is the surest thing and ammunition required while attacking consoles and the reactor core runs out extremely fast.
Soldiers playing with the Assault kit are equipped with the defibrillator, which is used - mainly- to revive wounded teammates. If one of the soldiers is down and needs an immediate medical assistance, an Assault unit may get to him and use the device mentioned above to put on him some electroshocks. Teammates requiring reviving are marked with a cross on the map of the battlefield.
Rule number 2 - kill enemy infantry, cover friendly Engineers
Units playing with Assault and Support kits are equipped with weapons, which are excellent during struggles against enemy infantry. That is why they should take care of the soldiers fighting for the opponent team and provide cover for teammate Engineers, which have to attack and destroy enemy heavy vehicles.
