Seems no one mentioned this, so I will. A tactic for infil I heard a while back (but never used) is once you have someone in your sights (ie sniper, resting soldier, whatever) send them a tell (like 'hey man, haven't seen u for a while'). While they puzzle over who the hell u are and type a reply, pop them in the back of the head. No mess, no fuss, and damn nasty to boot.

I've had enemy stealthers asking me if "we" have an AMS nearby. Naturally nobody ever asks something like that so it's obvious they're enemies, but it's always fun to jerk them around a bit.

Another great tactic is sneaking into a spawn room, waiting for any spawning troops to get their gear and leave, then hacking a term, throwing on an AV MAX and going to town. I did this last night on Oshur, Markov and racked up about 20 kills before finishing off the tubes and getting a decimator in the teeth. I want to find a TR infiltrator buddy who wants to make this a regular routine... 2 cloakers switch into a Pounder and DC in the spawnroom and open up. Not only are the looks on their faces funny, you can finish the tubes off much faster than the annoying inventory game of boomer, right-click, boomer, jammer, repeat.
