Platoon Leader Rules
The PL should always keep in contact with the other SLs and vise versa. You can do this by using the /pl [text] command.
A good PL will always be AT LEAST CR1 (so as they can set WPs). The WPs for each squad vary in color (Yellow [Primary Squad], Purple [Secondary Squad], and Orange [Tertiary Squad]) All the WPs show up on all the Platoon's Members Map and MiniMap. The map drawings also show up too. The Squads recommended troop type are now bigger, meaning that you have much more room for just grunts, you don't need all the skills and special armors. You can have a half a squad be infiltrators and the other half be all MAXs. Then have one squad be all skills (Advanced Medic, Combat Engineer, and Advanced Hacker). And then have one squad be pure force (Heavy Assault, Sniping, Special Assault, ECT...) The three Squad Member recommendations are below...
Primary Squad (Recon/Support)
Secondary Squad (Assault)
Tertiary Squad (Air Support)
These are just some ideas on how to set up your Platoon Squads. Platoons will be mostly used by Outfits, for more organized missions.
