Squad Tactics

Hey I'm new to these forums so sorry if I put this in the wrong place.
First of all I am JetFireIII, Leader of [iHoP] International House of Pwnage on Connery NC. In about three weeks we will be having an outfit scrim against [CSTB] Conglomerate Stratergy and Tactics Bureau or whatever new outfit the [CSTB] guys are making. We are a new "mini-ADK" and communications has been almost entirely ignored except for this scrim in which our best members who have also became our core members have begun to volunteer to fight [CSTB] on Test. Last night, me and another [iHoP] leader instructed a interestef member on some squad tactics.
So here is the situation. I'm fairly certain [CSTB] will be bringing their best members. My guess is I'll be seeing 2 excellent Infiltrators (one who is a hill sitter and one who gets quite close and personal), 2 or 3 Heavy Assaults who are very familiar with each other and know how to strafe as one person if you know what I mean where all three of them are shooting, but only one takes damage in return fire. We will also be dealing with 2 medics who are trained to revive after Heavies secure a small tight perimeter around the fallen, and we will be dealing with a light Assualt or two who spam Shotgun shells and are excellent at vanishing and reappearing half a second later with a one shot knife in your back. I know these guys well because the leaders of [iHoP] used to be in [CSTB] just days ago, but now since we are on our own, it's up to us to enforce tactics. Tactics that we worked on yesterday included staying in a column of two troops and having the rest lined up behind them. We also worked on breaking into a line or wedge at the sight of a contact. We also worked on minor revive cover tactics where one Medic would cover the other as we revived, but it still leaves flaws for the well known massing enemy Heavies. Finally; we worked on shooting smoke gernades and having the lead guy on a stacked door enter a room with HS/NV scope, down stragglers, then we push in as a squad and revive/give ammo to ourselves. We also worked on leapfrogging. Just for stats, we will likely have 3 medics, 1 heavy, 1 infiltrator, and 1 engineer for starters.
PlanetSide Community, please give me advice here! This is my first time leading a outfit scrim, and I'm leading members of a zerg Guild that's brand new who need a good reputation. I know some good tactics, but ANY advice would be AWESOME! Thank you PS2 Community!
JetFire,
iHoP, Connery NC
