Attack Pattern Double ALPHA-> APAA = Everyone charge over find the first mech A and alpha him..then do whatever else you want.

APCOD(Letter of target) = Circle of death

APPT()= Pop up in jump jets and fire at target

APHR()= Hit and run the target

APFluffy= charge in soften up the first target you see and run out.

APL(ord)P(sycho)= charge around or flank behind enemy lines hit them in the back and run back out



APH-(#)L =Hold the number line, incidentally APH-A3 means hold A3 block.





APDFA()= highland Burial when collisions are brought back .. *cries*


any suggestions?


might drop AP just to make this easier.....

I still think we should memorize things like...

Attack pattern Picard alpha 3 etc. I am pretty sure the crew of the Enterprise didn't know what the hell he was talking about. Then again maybe the Sfx guys did and Picard was talking to them...

WTF - What the fizzy are you on about?

Drop with a team.. plenty of well known terms already out there. Even names for pretty much every spot in every map (except alpine - we're all still kinda derping around that one)

Just to be the spanner, I didn't know what it was 'til now. I thought it was some strange form of "roll the dice," I didn't know what the heck the b could have meant.

Pretty sure the picard maneuver was just to run away a little bit to get someone to chase, and then turn around and blap them one



Also no idea why it got named after him, they been doing it since WWI

He said that to the ships computer, and obviously the computer knows all the patterns.
