SOPs are the way by which we conduct all in-game procedures at the Coalition. Everything has a reason it is done a certain way, and if not, you're doing it the wrong way.

General SOPs

Leadership

Fireteam

Always mention what formation you want prior to movement.

Always mention what team you want on each side of your formation prior to movement.

Always place your fireteam members as priority.

Always keep your squad leader informed (Casualties, ammunition, TIC, etc...)

Squad

Always be as vocal as possible

Always ensure your FTLs have what they need

Always mention what formation you want the fireteams in if necessary

Always ensure communication is setup prior to safe start being disabled

Always keep your medic somewhere safe but mobile

Always ensure you have supply lines setup to your fireteam leaders

Always keep yourself out of danger, but in a managing position

Always inform the Platoon Leader on what is happening within your squad

Platoon

Always plan loosely and ensure your squad leaders plan

Always view the big picture

Always keep yourself out of danger and away from the frontline

Always know and use what supports you have available to you

Always ensure information flows as much as possible

JTAC/RTO

Be aware of support asset status (ammo, fuel, damage, etc), consistently request reports

Set ingress point (IP) and strike point (SP) for air supports when appropriate (e.g. danger-close rocket run)

Remain in close proximity to PLT

Be aware of friendly positioning, nothing is worse than mass friendly fire because you didn't double check with your binoculars

Manage 3 radios efficiently, do not drop comms, always respond even if it's just acknowledgement

Company

To be added

Line of succession

The Standard line of succession for both Fireteams and Platoon can be found in the Leading and Being led section of the wiki

Infantry SOPs

Always respond to contact with overwhelming fire

Always inform your leadership on your ammunition and supply status

Always be aware of your surroundings

Always use cover or concealment if possible

Utilize medics if you're hurt, don't scavenge for morphine unless you absolutely have to

If unsure about it, blow it up prior to going near it

If it seems like a trap or ambush, it probably is

If it looks dangerous it probably is

If a plan looks stupid, mention a better one

Ground Vehicle SOPs

When working with infantry, always be aware of movement

Always have a retreat planned in case you take a debilitating hit

Do not remain stationary out of cover for extended periods of time

Always place enemy ground vehicles as priorities

When in proximity of infantry, always be cognizant of gun over pressure

Convoy SOP

Define your speed and spacing prior to moving out

Pull off to the opposite side of the road as the vehicle in front of you (herring bone is the official term) when the convoy takes contact or halts.

Use your mirrors

Be aware of partial vs. full dismount orders, keep track of your vehicle for when it's time to remount

Air Vehicle SOPs

Always have an understanding of the battlespace

Always know where friendlies are located

If possible, always use your GPS when flying

When inserting or extracting, always inform infantry to use visual markers
