Insurgency: Sandstorm Commander Fire Support Reference

Excellent for blocking enemy sightlines and covering team advances. Large smoke cloud obscures movement effectively. Combine with an immediate push while smoke is active.

High-damage concentrated strike. Best used on known enemy positions or defensive emplacements. The smaller radius means you need accurate placement — use the target marker carefully.

Runs along a line determined by the target marker angle. Devastating against enemies grouped in a corridor or advancing along a single lane. Requires a target marker from the Observer.

Persistent area suppression — forces enemies to take cover and disrupts pushes. Long deploy time means you need to call it before contact, not during. Excellent for defending captured objectives.

High-precision attack helicopter strike. Best for hardened positions or vehicle-equivalent structures. The long deploy time makes it risky if enemy positions shift — target something static.

Fast-deploying smoke for quick area denial. Use it to cover flanking routes or protect a retreat. Faster deploy than Security smoke makes it more reactive in fast-moving firefights.

Standard indirect fire lethal strike. Larger radius than Security's explosive artillery makes it slightly more forgiving on placement. High damage against unshielded enemies.

Creates a sustained gas cloud that kills players without gas masks. Announce before calling every time — no exceptions. Devastating on objectives when defenders are unequipped.

Widest area coverage of all Insurgent fire support. Multiple rockets saturate a zone rapidly. Lower precision means it is best used on clustered objective areas rather than individual targets.

Requires visual confirmation of target. Precision drone strike suitable for single high-value targets or small groups. The drone can be shot down before impact — best used when enemy is occupied.

Kamikaze drone that detonates on impact. Very precise but can be shot down. Effective against enemies in cover who cannot easily dodge. Coordinate with a simultaneous push to maximize impact.
