Tactics Open field attacking.

How do you attack an enemy position in an open field with no cover is a good question.

The answer is to split in to two teams and have one team provide the initial supression fire while the other team sprints ahead in zig-zag (no bunny hopping, lol) style, going prone and then taking the role of supression team while the previous supression team then sprints ahead in zig-zag style about 15 yards ahead of the other team and then, as before, lays down and provides the supression fire.

Repeat the process untill either team gets close enough to frag the enemy position.

It's a sure fire way to attacking enemy positions in open, cover-less fields with minimal casulties. Ideially though you should never attack from open fields unless it's absolutely necassary.

If your a clan, pre-determine who will be the team that provides the initial supression fire and the team that will do the initial sprint forward. That way you can perform this tactic the instant it's required.

I oringialy came across this in the Comanche III manual, and this can be applied to any real combat senario, tanks, men, vehicals, girlscouts.... its a good and very flexible tactic, as it can be used in alot of situations.
