Here's a good one.
wait on the wall of a freshly captured dropship center in an infl. suit. when the gals start to cluster and load up, let one off, rips em to shreds, tons of kills. i can't help but laugh whenever i see this happen

321's Steps to OS:

1. Get your command uplink device (CUD) out
2. Click then click again on OS
3. Point the OS at a friendly CY close to the enemy base you're attacking
4. Fire, don't worry about the hate tells the friendlies really like you

but when i OS i do a reveal enimes first then where ever the biggest cluster of dots are i os that spot. but if im not 100% sure there is one i scout out with a phoenix. when i find an AMS i lay a personal WP then i place the OS beam on the personal wp. then i OS.

the really sad part is when I see enemy commanders miss 3 times with an orbital strike against an ams out in the open, I suppose its just what happens when there are such a large number of retards in a position with such power that it balances out

also, if you want to save an ams from an orbital strike, land a mossie on top of it and get out, the os will kill the mossie but not the ams, and more likely than not, the remains of the skeeter will "sheild" it from any other OS's, its a bug, but it works

tactics for using OS? easy, find a lot of people, and nuke it.

OSs are not as exciting as you're thinking. The CR4 OS is so pathetic is only useful for destroying AMSs (when it actually does), the CR5 OS goes well with reveal enemies (which doesn't cover an entire cont like the description reckons). Reveal enemies during a very big fight, wack it down in the middle of the largest concentration of them, guaranteed to get decent kills. The CR4 OS is just painful and frustrating.
