P.S. I like the way you made this Fets. How there is really only one good awnser. whereas the others have had multiple anwsers. More tricky and really lets you second guess yourself. I learned from this and i think others have as well.
I do believe Koolaid's answer is the best solution to the problem. This scenario was taken from a real live event we found ourselve's in last Sunday. We did exactly what Koolaid's solution suggested (Koolaid was not with us, it was Phiberoptix Gibby and myself).

In the end our scenario ended by me shooting the OpFor in the back. It was absolutely perfect execution.

The one key take away from this quiz is that you never abandon that tape line position. You can't lose perspective on where that OpFor is. Even though we couldn't see exactly where he was we had an idea and he wasn't moving because we were still in his way (one of us).

I know several suggestions included falling back but I feel that is not at all the right response. You are just opening your entire team up to the possibility of that guy back dooring you at some point.

So make sure if you engage the enemy you hold him where he is until your team can flank him. Never fall back to re-engage if you have teammates working with you.
