Attention outfit leaders - request for comments.

Two Bravo Delta is forming as a faction-wide training "service" outfit with the singular goal of helping all NC outfits by providing standardized team-building training sessions and programs.

The training is infantry - based and, while it includes some very handy tactical procedures that you may find useful in combat, the primary focus is on teaching people how to listen, understand and take action in the heat of battle.

In as little as six weeks, people you send through the program will be noticeably more responsive, have better initiative and discipline, and will bring a positive and healthy influence to the other members of your outfit.

Some questions you may have:

Who is doing this?

The outfit that will provide this training is Two Bravo Delta, run by me and a staff of players dedicated to your success.

Will my people have to join your outfit to take this training?

No. Anyone can sign up for the training, which will be scheduled and listed on our website. All that is required is to show up on time ready to win.

What are some of the things you will teach?

Basic infantry tactics provide a great vehicle for learning effective combat teamwork. We will focus on squad and fireteam based drills and live-fire exercises to include topics like fire superiority, movement to contact, fire and maneuver, and breeches. We'll also focus on the basics that all outfits use such as recall, assembly, outfitting, loading and dropping.

What about weapons skill and CQB?

The focus of our training is how to work as a team, not as an individual.
While weapons skills are important, that's not what we're about.

Why should we send our guys to you? We have our own training program.

And if you're 100% satisfied with the results you're getting, you're all set. If, on the other hand, you find yourself wishing your outfit members were more on the ball, we can help you with that.

What if your training conflicts with the way we do things?

Since we base our training on basic real-world infantry tactics, chances are we're teaching things you already try to do. Most likely anything new your people learn will be helpful and easily integrated into your existing procedures if you so desire. Either way, you'll get back players who are better team players, which means a better fight no matter what your plan is.

Will there be a list of people who have attended training?

All trainees who successfully finish the different levels of training will receive a Two Bravo Delta certification, indicating they have the right stuff when it comes to teamwork and discipline. Please note that not all applicants will qualify or successfully complete the training. While we will strive to help as many as possible, this will not be a "gimme" - people are going to have to earn it.

Why are you doing this?

Because we can do better as a faction and I know for a fact, based on my own personal experience, that this type of training works in Planetside 2. Your members, and our empire, will be better for it.

Will there be training for VS or TR outfits?

No.

If the concept behind Two Bravo Delta sounds interesting to you as an outfit leader, please leave a comment. This is all about you and your outfit, and the NC as a whole.
