| - The following unit composition compilation, derived from a discussion held in the official First Strike forums, was made to give you ideas on how to set up your squads for various tasks in First Strike matches. As it is based on a forum thread, further fireteam/squad ideas submitted to the forum thread should be transferred here, and the other way around. Important: When reading the article, note that with the exception of fireteams that require more than one officer to get up and running, 'Composition' refers to only the members other than the squad leader (officer), who is considered to be a 'given' part of any squad. So for example, the 4-man sniper fireteam consists of two snipers, a medic, and an officer, even though the latter is not listed. It should also be mentioned that the suggested composition of each unit described here are just that - suggestions. The mortar fireteam, for example, calls for three heavy weapons specialists with mortars in addition to a Support player to provide ammunition. However, you may find in-game that a different setup entirely works just as well in your situation. Feel free to experiment, adjusting squad composition as called for by the combat situation.
