First, sorry of any of this has been done before, if so, I'll hope for a lock on the thread or something similar.
To the thing: in this thread, I'll post difficult situations, fictional and real, that may happen in Halo Multiplayer. I'd like every visitor to throw their two cents in and and tell about the best way they would tackle it. When I have asked myself "How awesome isn't that tactic?" or "Why didn't I think of that?" I'll come with a new situation. (If discussion doesn't bring forth any good tactics in a certain situation during a limited amount of time, another scenario will come too.)
First scenario: You're on Sidewinder, a 1v1 slayer game (a tad unrealistic, but hey, it was the best I could think of) and your enemy is a coward, sniping you from afar, and always being on the "shelves" that you can come to by teleporting out of base. He's switching between the two shelves on a regular basis, and takes cover in the teleporter caves more time then he spends spotting you.
You also know that he has the control of the rocket launcers, a close range assault would be dangerous. He is a good sniper too, but not divine, yet spending time anywhere he can see you mst certainly leads to death if he can fire a clip non-stop at you.
You've got access to warthogs and ghosts, start with pistol and AR, and the weapons that the map designers put in is where the map designers put them.
How would you tackle this situation?
Version Two: You're on a team slayer game, (chose somewhere between 4v4 and 8v8) and the other team has taken control of the "shelves" and has put snipers there, and they use someone to drive a warthog with gunner around the map, which means this warthog has possibilities for covering fire backing it up.
Now, how would you advise your team to act?
