Nothing takes down Speeder Bikes in the open like a Combat Speeder's repeating blaster, to my experience.

We need to get a death speeder squad, fill it with soldiers, throw nades, mines, all out everywhere, park rearm, repeat!

I mean speeder bikes . I know there are speeders, as they're pretty much my favorite vehicle. Get in position one, go find an enemy, jump to position three, throw grenades, jump to position two and start shooting the vehicle's repeating blaster at whatever survives, go to position one and boost the speeder out of there if you start taking significant damage... it's an awesome vehicle. The only problem is that since you're exposed to weapons fire, you'll need a support and medic on hand, or preferably with you in the speeder, to get you back in shape between encounters.

No, the 32 player version doesn't have speeders. In my opinion, there should be one available to the Empire, as they're damned useful.

Sniping is very, very, very easy in this mod, and the fact that the sniper rifle seems to have just about infinite range doesn't exactly ease matters.

I once got 33 sniper kills on mos espa and nearly all of them were headshots.

Sniping isnt difficult, especially when some people help by standing still

I kinda like being a standard trooper with an inaccurate blaster firing off hundreds of shots!!!!!

All the different classes have strangths and weaknesses. Best thing is to squad up and if your playing sniper then a least spot the enemy if your not certain about hitting them.

Have any of you guys played Mos Espa? The hill tops and roofs are filled with snipers...

And sniping is easy as pie...
