Sup all? I play karkand like crazy. I have been commander for the MEC team for a while now. I found out a way for those of yall who are not so good at commanding your troops at karkand (no affence) This technice is a way to get you Gold star, commander points, round won, and troops happy!
After being commander tell your troops that YOU want them to make sure that NO american troops get a flag. That lets them know your trust worthy, and that you will alow them to get kills and not drive em crazy! Now make sure theres at least 3 squads. For this reason two squads stay and help deffend the first flag. And this leaves the other squad to go get the flag that is being caped if it is. Tell them that YOU want at least one squad to go re-cap the flag that is being taken over. Make sure that there well suited for it (meaning Spec Ops, Anti-tank, medic, and supply). Keep the UAVs up and going, Commend the squad constently, spot anything and everything, Tanks and APCs mainly. Spot the enemy that got threw the lines. Trust me some one will be waiting for em! Be at the Main MEC base. Keep the ARTY going, and tell em that its comeing. Drop supply box were it is easy for them to get to, and not so easy for tanks or APCs. When commander, go with a ground deffence weapon TOW or a SAW of some sort. This allows you to do several things. 1. Commander points. 2. Ground deffence time. 3. weapon of choice time. Follow these guidelines if you chose to be the commander of the MEC team and I guarentee you wont lose! I do this everytime I am commander and it works. Oh another thing. When playing on a 24/7 server play a couple of rounds as commander and let someone else be commander. Helps not cause tention amoung other players that want to be commander. If commander for 3 or more rounds ask em if someone else would like to be commander. Sometimes you get someone saying I do, and some times you dont. Have fun and hope to see yall on the battle field!

Ask me any questions requarding this if you like I will be more then happy to reply!

hmm aren't some of those pieces of advise, general things u ought to do? .

I know when i play commander, i tend to stay near UAV, SCAN and arty to protect it. I play engineer most of the time (repair those things). Try to give orders, lay mines etc. etc.

DONT compliment groups all the time. If u compliment someone all the time, it looses it's meaning. When i'm not a commander i run a solo squad (no one but me in it since im spec op). He wanted me to blow something up and i refused cause i was on another mission (defending and killing) and he kept on telling me that i was the worst squad bla bla bla... that's just annoying. Just keep the orders comming and quit the "ohh your doing such a great job" crap. It's just another annoying piece of chatter on the radio.

Ofcourse if a squad manages to do something great, then u can compliment them

I always - when I arti - select all squads and say move artillery.  Just so they look at the map.

Unfortunately this doesnt always work. and of course I get punished because they drive into the big red gun flashing on their mini-map.

I ask them to get into squads - and I always get one smart ass squad leader - what do you think Im in.  then I inform him that its not just him its everyone else that is "Unassigned."

Just do your best to keep arti on this map until you see people trying to cap the back flags.  keep the UAV's up front but if you can arti those capping back flags since no one seems to follow orders usually they just accept them and ignore them.

But its just a game :-)

Oh I only compliment them when they do something good several times. But I had people that command and cant understand why they lost at karkand. So this is for you!
