Shotgun tactics-woodland
16 May, 2010, 17:55
Hi all,
I was just thinking what the most effective tactics for woodland shotgunning would be? I know in CQB it is your job to be the pointman, but what about in urban/woodland?

Re: Shotgun tactics-woodland
Run, fast, very fast.
Dart between trees and other places of cover to get close.
Don't get pinned down by AEG fire, because if you do, you've already lost.
I sometimes when want to do something different/stupid.
Oh and downing energy drinks before is a plus hah.

Haha this is so true!
I would simply say Dont tbh! Ive tried it and up against spraying and praying constant AEG fire, it gets a we bit painful from time to time! haha

Re: Shotgun tactics-woodland
if defending stay low, ambush, then run like feck. Remember on TM shotguns you've got a decent range and spread so aim to hit groups of bunched up guys.

Re: Shotgun tactics-woodland
Ambush, ambush and ambush.
Depending on the type of shotty you have, you may have a big advantage in the woods. A 3 barrel shotty isn't much good in the woods as there is a little spread to the shot, but not enough to compensate for a lack of full auto. A single barrel, multi shot, gas shotty though punches 3 to 5 BBs down the same path in a split second. This will get the shots through bushes far more effectively than an AEG can manage.
My M500 is firing at roughly 300fps, fires 5 BBs per shot and I can pump 2 to 3 shots per second. Each shot leaves the barrel in roughly 1/50th of a second. It's like having a real steel shotty firing slugs, rather than a 3 barrel which fires like weak bird shot.

Re: Shotgun tactics-woodland
in the past i tend to use ambush or lonewolf tactics and get a surprising amount of kills tho it can get boring if you get the ambush location wrong or your waiting for a while b4 getting the kills
If Carlsberg made Airsoft teams..............They would still get raped by the G.Z.C.F

Re: Shotgun tactics-woodland
Bukkerz,
Don't use a shotgun, especially one that has an annoying habit of double cocking. Get a cyma g18c and run round the woods skipping and laughing.

Thank you toby for that subtle kick in the teeth,
And yeah running fast does help; if your against someone who can't pick yout targets quickly than you're probably going to win. Also, i once did ambush a group of people, from the other side of a rather large bush. There were about three of them, and two shots from a DE m56 got them all! I have got a TM Spas12, so I'm guessing that i can look to get a few more long range kills. However, i reckon that the thrill is in getting close to them without their knowing it.;[smilier=new_blackey:

Re: Shotgun tactics-woodland
I did'nt think a shotgun in th woods was the best idea I had until I ambushed a rather large team, taking them all out with the ten shots I had. Nice little stealth attack. Best advice travel light so you can move fast and get up close. Get yourself a shotgun belt to keep your shells in for fast reloading.

Re: Shotgun tactics-woodland
Either;
- get something like an mp5k on your back, just in case it all goes to sh!t, then you can spray and pray while running away,
- get lots of smoke and pyro and run around going mental shot-gunning anyone the pyro doesn't get
