        <![CDATA[ So after surprising a friend who didn't realize you could shoot a grenade over the force field relay posts, I took a few minutes to throw together some basic tricks I've learned over the past couple of months both from playing and the forums. I don't expect it's comprehensive, and it's mainly from a marine perspective, but I didn't find a lot of this sort of thing on the resource pages I did find. If you've got a correction, something to add, a better idea or way to explain it, etc. please do... ]]>

I'm sure that Commanders can blow them up tough.<br><br>A nice trick to remember is that you can blow the door switches away, and when you do so the lockable doors turn green (unlocked) for the rest of the game. If you ever need to retreat from a position and don't want to be locked out, use your Commander/Sniper/Grenadier to take the control down before escaping.<div class='signature'><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR... ]]></description>
