Getting ready for some intense rounds of paintball?Any good websites or books discussing 2 man and 5 or 6 man battlefield tactics, guerrilla tactics.
Good advice! Be sure to specify 0300, too.Become a Marine - Contact a U.S. Marine Corps Recruiter Today

Ah, but every battle is won ... or lost ... before it's fought (see signature). Tactics are important, yes, but as important (if not more so) are the emotional and mental aspects of the battle. If you're not just as emotionally and mentally prepared as you are tactically, all the tactics and tacticool gear in the world can't save you.I don't endorse Sun Tzu if you want actual instructions on how to set up an L-shaped ambush as opposed to hearing crap like "Every battle is won before it is fought (insert gong sound)"
Agreed! You can be mentally tough and be so brave you run straight into machine gun fire and die or you can be trained in shoot, move, and communicate but be crapping yourself when the bullets fly and good luck flanking an enemy then!Ah, but every battle is won ... or lost ... before it's fought (see signature).

I have to know, did any of them yell "WOLVERINES!"?Good show, good gun handling. Makes you think when you see 15 and 12 year old American kids fighting a guerrilla war on home soil.
Which is why I said:It's a two edged sword, being prepared and not knowing the tactics is just as bad if not worse than knowing the tactics but not being prepared.

All of those aspects are specific to the battlefield. If you've studied the basics, which it seems you have, understanding the successful application of basics comes through experience. No one can zip open your head and pour in specific deployments for your battlefield.I under stand the tactics when it comes to evading, picking your fights, hit and run. I've read some of Che's book and others.
What I'm looking for is deploying your fighters, setting up defense. You know the specifics, this guy goes here, that one there, this one moves here that one goes there, type of strategies. Suppressing fire here while those flank this way etc...
