k, bottom line is i've got a group of 3-4 people who we consistantly go out together, and typically get stuck on the same team, 2 days ago was the first time we played together, and we were able to win about 2/5 rounds against a group of guys who looked like typical weekend warriors, all gear, pants, jersies, spare tubes, etc.

while all we rock are T shirts and our own guns

now is there anything u guys can recomend besides say, flanking? we came up with a couple little strategies such as maintain like a horizontal line, which each person is about 15 feet apart, and from the outside person, each person is 10-20 feet behind the last, on an angle back towards the starting corner

but tacticts, in high intensity scenarios seem to fall apart, or just not work

is there anything u guys can recomend, or the only thing that will work is experiance?

The best laid plan falls apart in the first three moves. A tacticly good team has the ability to adapt the plan on the move to keep the team moving to the objective while keeping your opponents off balance. There is no formula to do this except practice. Communication is also very important. You must keep track of what your team is doing at all time. Next break the team down so each player has a job to do that when all is combined together to make the whole plan. Like a play in football. DO NOT get tunnel vison. While committing your strategy be aware of what is going on around you. If you lose a team member your have to know how to "fill the gaps". PRACTICE your communications!! PRACTICE your team work!! KNOW your field of engagment!!!! LEARN to give cover fire while your team mate advance!!!

TB definatly said it. But for some teams the chemistry of the team just needs a layed out plan. When me and my friends go out and play woodsball we usually have a general plan (because you can't predict how you're opponent is going to move, so you can only lay out a plan of attack so far) We range in sizes of teams but its usually teams of 3 or 4. Most of the time we take it like we're playing in an arena we have backs, mids, and fowards. The only difference is we are much more stealthy then when we play arena. We usually move up the field in a 2-2-2 form. But then one of the backs breaks off and starts moving up the center or the field. as that happends the fowards usually post on the far sides and allow the mids to move up and if not advance farther with cover. When we have one back up it usually means the one left fills in the spot for anyone who gets hit. It works pretty well for us.. we have to switch it up depending on who we are playing but for the most part, its usually solid.
hope that helped a little.
any questions just add me on aim or msn

cover fire is crucial, if your teammate yells give me some cover, spray until he gets to cover. note: getting to cover does not mean all the way to the object unless necessary. if you know the angle the opponents cannot hit your teammate at, fire until then. a common formation my team used was the diamond. have a lead front man with good eyes, and a decent shot. The middle men are your average guys can shoot decently and can lay some paint if they have too. your rear man is specifically for cover fire mostly. Note: this can be good or bad depending on the skill of the other team, experienced teams will see this and know what you up to. Use it the first game to toy with them so you can get a feel on their strengths and weaknesses. Also this is only a patrol formation, be ready to break to defensive pos. as soon as the fire happens. also, remember there is no shame in losing the first round, to get a feel, as long as you win the rest of the rounds.
