This. I was in a squad last night and we were all recon. Funny thing was, the other squad was getting their asses kicked and couldn't get out of the spawn zone so me and other guy in my squad ended up blowing up the MCOM stations.
I use the hell out of my mortar strikes. I love calling it in on the top of a building where a squad is camping in. Plus, when a tank is just camping = easy points.
I also try to spot as many enemies as I can - because not only does it help me keep track and snipe, but it also helps my team and gets me points for the kills.
