Welcome to Role Guide #7! This week we’re looking at a role that enables your team's dream strategies to become a reality – the [b]Support[/b]. If you missed the previous guide where we looked at the [b]Assault[/b], you can catch up [url=https://steamcommunity.com/games/686810/announcements/detail/1803034740772836984]here[/url]. [h1][b]The Support[/b][/h1] As a Support, you are the fuel that feeds your team’s strategy. Working closely with your Officer, Engineer and Anti-tank roles, you will provide them with the means to deploy game changing spawn points, heavy weaponry and fortifications. [h1]Key Duties[/h1] [b][i]Placing Supplies[/i][/b] [img]https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34012997/f92190eb778ef407fa5f4aa9d5e84217b293bc2b.jpg[/img] The pinnacle duty of the Support, placing supplies. As the only role that actively carries supplies in their loadout, your use of this valuable resource will be instrumental in executing your team’s strategy. Once a supply crate is placed, certain deployables can be built in a set radius around it. As mentioned in the introduction, your supplies can be used in a wide variety of ways with different roles: [list] [*]Officer – Garrison (Teamwide spawn) [*]Anti-tank – Anti-tank Gun [*]Engineer – Fortifications (Sandbags, barbed wire etc) [/list] Support players spawn with one supply crate in their inventory and once it’s placed, it can’t be moved. When committing to using your supplies make sure they’re in the best possible location for their purpose. [b][i]Support the attack[/i][/b] [img]https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34012997/2b73b75067fac294f601b6573960183d9886e892.gif[/img] [i]A Support soldier prepares for battle in the shade.[/i] Once you’ve deposited your supplies, you should focus on joining the Rifleman, Assault and Automatic Rifleman roles at the front, taking on the enemy and pushing the objective. Equipped with either an M1 Garand or the Karabiner 98k, as well as grenades, the Support can stand toe to toe with the Rifleman and put a dent in the enemy team’s plans. [h1]American Support Loadout[/h1] [list] [*]M1 Garand [*]Mk2 Grenade [*]Bandages [*]Supplies [/list] [h1]German Support Loadout[/h1] [list] [*]Karabiner 98k [*]M43 Stielhandgranate [*]Bandages [*]Supplies [/list] [h1]Combat Tips[/h1] [b]Supply and demand[/b] – Don’t just throw your supplies down at the first opportunity. Communicate with the roles that make use for them to ensure your supplies are placed in the most tactically viable location. [b]Eyes on the prize[/b] – Supplies can be destroyed by the opposing team! If you leave yours unguarded and the enemy find it, your supplies won’t be around for long. On the flip side, feel free to remove any enemy supply crates you encounter by moving up to them and following the on-screen button prompt. [b]Supports united[/b] – If your Commander decides to create a fortified location, or base, on the frontline, multiple Support roles will have to work together to ensure enough supplies are deployed to create the Commander’s plan. Talk to your Officer and use proximity chat to co-ordinate with your fellow Support players for maximum efficiency. [b]Support the attack[/b] – Your role may be called Support, but you’re equipped with a loadout that lets you hold your own on the frontline. Once your supplies are down, don’t shy away from combat.
