Suicide
From TribalWar
In tribes, the key combination of ctrl-k caused your player to kill himself and respawn.
[edit]
Usage
A manual suicide is more than just dying in order to respawn with full health. It also features a very very tactical element. A tactical suicide can be performed to achief several goals. Some of those are:
- Friendly flag is dropped and secure, a suicide usually will cause a spawn at the friendly base providing the opportunity to defend and clear the friendly flagstand to secure a save return and avoid regrabs.
- You're somewhere rock bottom, totally lost in gameplay and the respawn will bring you closer to
- the enemy flag carrier
- your dropped friendly flag
- your friendly flag carrier
- the base, to re-equip
- avoid the enemy of killing you (duh!)
- Regroup for the next coordinated attack
- basically anything that's useful for your teams current situation
