Movement in Urban Terrain

  • Avoid Silhouetting (even shadowing. in night lay in shadows)

  • Avoid Open Areas (easy prey in PvPs)

  • Visual Reconnaissance (look for possible danger - like BMP on crossroad on "sniper" in window)

  • Conceal Movement (its better not being seen - after you are seen - you are target)

  • Move Rapidly (from one cover to another (hard) cover - to limit exposure of enemy weapons)

  • Always assume danger (do not feel safe)

  • Failing recognize Danger Areas (Linear Danger Area - "LDA" - running over roads)

  • Weapon barrel visible behind corner (PvP like KOTH or else PvPs)
