Remember they spawn there.... and if the map is redone for the new objective mode, spawn flags wont matter much to them. Think about it 3 AT ST's 2 on front lines 1 guarding the tiny bunker entrance.
However, you could spawn a whole team right before the base by just getting everyone on one of four squads, getting a SQL on each bike drive to point and poof you appear on the SQL.
Could you use your R2 unit to open the gate xD?
