After playing some games this evening, I had a thought - what about a squad of three engineers, one tactician? I had one of these and it was pretty amazing. Basically, right off the bat we sprinted as far into enemy territory as we could and dropped three sentries next to a decent choke point, along with a spawn grenade. It takes about ten seconds to have an easily defensible point anywhere on the map, and every time the engineers die they can come back and drop another turret. Even though the turrets aren't very powerful, the hits confuse people and cause them to look for cover, making it easy to hold ground
This works out great on several modes. During search and destroy it gives you an offensive point close to the target to spawn at, or to defend from. On the propaganda missions we'd set it up near the destination zone, to help cover the runner. It's also solid for defending a point.
Anyhow, just a thought, and I'd love to play in this sort of role.
Also, can I request that everyone be on mic? Bluetooth headsets are cheap (heck, the sony one is awesome, and you get socom with it), and it's really key that everyone can talk with each other.
