I don't really have anything else to say that hasn't already been said, other than that the boring jobs should be a little more appreciated more in games. Boring jobs like repairing, doing recon, or guarding the base (I remember that one time I was a lone gunner defending the barracks, which was our only structure left, while every other person was out attacking. I think I got about 5-6 kills because noone got near )

It is important to act as a team player in laddered games, lest you want to be flamed by your teammates . But most of the time, i'm in unladdered games to have fun, which is where I pick a lot of the fun units like aircraft and snipers.

But the truth of the matter is, the ones in battle get most of the glory (just look at history).
