Editing Surviving an Ambush (section)

== 1. Always assume they'll be an ambush ==

At the start of a scout you get to arrange your squad within the initial spawn circle.  Always study the nearby terrain and look for terrain features to allow you to quickly block an enemy vehicle's LOS.  Nearby hills are an excellent example, as are cliffs.  Position yourself so you have the ability to quickly break LOS.  One desperate tactic is to drive your vehicles off a cliff.  If your vehicles survive the fall, you can usually escape.  Most cliffs can be navigated without risk as long as your vehicles are going 20 mph or less.
