Hi this is Robert Stewart with Hill13.com. The first of these team strategies we’re going to talk about is called the strong side of the hammer offense. Now you have to keep in mind when you execute this maneuver the opposing team may do exactly the same thing. At which point you may have to break off and amend your plans. ßut we’re going to look at this and assume that the red team is not communicating or they don’t have a lot of experience. So as they move out they’re going to take the field in nearly a random fashion at the break. They’re going to begin moving out with just a diaphanous awareness of what their objective is, and they’re going to move on that without a lot of squad base tactics involved. The green team however, is going to take a little bit of a gambit on defense. They’re going to have one positional defense player here, guarding the flag. And then they’re going to have one deny or situational defense that may have to break away from here, but for the time being he’s simply going to try to deny access to this side of the field. And keep the opposing force from moving on the flag. At that point the team lead is going to move his entire force, roughly down the tape on one side of the field. Now you may encounter these players along the way, but if at all possible they should not know what is actually occurring until it’s too late for them to react effectively. So if you can avoid first contact, do so. Move your team in, take up positions that afford you the best shooting angles, and eliminate their defense. At this point you have their flag. They’re spread all along a line, roughly, actually I’ll do it in red. Their players are now spread out in lines across the field, having met the defense and being fired upon from more than one different set of shooting lanes. At this point, on your way back with the flag, you can split off the runners to take the flag back to your location. While your players move in on the opposing force, and begin eliminating their players from behind. That is a well played capture the flag.
