C & G has some spammers, so I'll decide to post here:
I was experimenting with this for a while, and I found it to be quite interesting.
When facing in a war game or clan war, it is always useful to take a small band of soldiers together and unite them. Here are interesting formations that take relativley few soldiers.
Triangle(Delta) Formation:
-X XX
X=Soldier -=Extra Space
A Triangle formation is the easiest formation, taking only 3 people. It is effective so that the enemy easily can't flank you from the sides, which is typically the problem with a straight line formation.
The soldier up front usually has a better weapon, and is the first priority. The soldiers behind him, usually having ranged weapons, support the stronger soldier, and weaken the enemy before the stronger soldier finishes him off.
A Triangle formation can also lead to the following:
Reverse Triangle Formation:
-0 XX -X
Which then leads into...
XX -0 -X
X= Soldier 0= Enemy -=Extra Space
When approaching the enemy, the supporting soldiers go in front of the main one, attempting to weaken the enemy as he charges. Then, the supporting soldiers break up, allowing the charging soldier to get to the main soldier. If successful, the supporting soldiers will trap the enemy. If not, the charging soldier has the risk of the stronger soldier to attack him, since he is already weakened by the other soldiers.
Triangle Formations are highly effective. You can combine multiple Triangle formations to create even more effective bands of soldiers.
A(Alpha) Formation:
-X XX XX -X
Which turns into...
-X XX XXX
X= Soldier -= Extra Space
The A Formation is a combination of a Triangle and Reverse Triangle formation. This can be a very intimidating formation, making the enemy think that a sizeable army is approaching them. Using the similar strategies mentioned before, the first triangle does the same thing, while the second triangle can turn into a straight line formation, which supports the supporting soldiers up front, simply by breaking up the second row of support soldiers, allowing the stronger soldier in between them. The straight line formation can be applied here because essentially it adds another "Layer" to the triangle, making it even harder for the opponent to flank.
In the event that the formation is broken up, it can turned into two Triangle Formations. If only one or two soldiers die in the group, they stay behind the supporting soldiers, and fight alongside them when faced with an enemy.
Finally, we will discuss a formation requiring 3 Triangles, or 9 people.
Endless Assault Formation
-X XX
-X XX
-X XX
X= Soldier -= Extra Space
Now, what's the deal with 3 Triangles in a row? Well, following a similar strategy called the "Hanging Chariot", which was used several times in Japaneese warfare, it sends one army to fight the enemy, and then when it is tired or defeated, it is quickly replaced by another one. The defeated army stays in the back to rest while the others fight, wearing out the enemy. This creates the effect of an "endless" or "invincible army".
To effectivley use this, the Army Upfront (1st row) follows the similar strategies of the typical Triangle Formation. When formation is in danger of being broken up (E.X: Someone is about to die), they flee to the army which is furthest behind (3rd row). The enemy will of course try to chase after them. While they flee, the army which was behind them (2nd row) chases the enemy, and kills them. When the enemy is destroyed, they go back into their formations to rest and get ready for battle again.
In the event that there is a large number of enemies, the Endless Assault formation can also take the following:
Beehive (Beta) Formation:
-X XX
XXX
-X XX
X= Soldier -= Extra Space
This formation is a combination of two triangle formations and a straight line formation. The Straight Line serves as bait, and if the opponent tries to flank here, will risk being trapped by TWO Triangle Formations. If the formation is charging, the straight row can assume the A Formation with the 1st Triangle Formation, while the 2nd formation serves as support.

True. But if somebody can find a way to follow this guide, it would revolutionize how we play games on ROBLOX. |

Unfortunately call of duty has made a generation of gamers who use no tactics at all |

crouch, get up close, circle enemy with automatic fire to the legs, cutting off escape routes whenever possible
always works |
