Hints and Tips
The Assaultman has many useful tactics that assist in the platoon's missions. Although hated for many reasons, skilled players may find this MOS, a rifleman with a rocket launcher, a "blast"
Tip 1) The Assaultman works best with co-ordination from teammates. In umbrella mode, smokes and flares can assist in a good Assaultman's overall damage dishing, slowing umbrella units to almost nothing, making them an easy target for EMP and HEAT rocket strikes.
Tip 2) Most people think of the Assaultman as a camper. They are horribly wrong. Anybody good with a rifleman is good with the Assualtman, in terms of weapon useage. In fact, the Assualtman is practically based off the rifleman; so level up your BCT, turn on your riflebutt and start hitting zombies in the face!
Tip 3) Run n' Boom's. A harder tactic to use, but a good cliff jumper can get a large amount of undead freaks behind him, jump a clif and smoke the path they need to follow. When the majority arrives there, shoot a flare over them and proceed to EMP the center where there's more. Pick off anything that comes close with your gun, and use HEAT rockets for small groups and large targets.
Overall, whether you're out to see limbs flying past you in large explosions, put a bullet in a zombies head, or want to do almost anything, the Assaultman is worth more then a try.
