ZaZZo's Jihad tips

[ZaZZo]

First, you find a map playing Al Basrah. It is the best map for jihads in PR.
Go insurgent and make a "Jihadists" squad or a "Jihad" squad. Kick everyone who are not doing jihads.
Then you spawn with ambusher kit on the palace. Grab a dirtbike or a bombcar and set your C4 on it.
Now, if there are no warriors around you can jihad then go for the checkpoint. There is almost always someone up there.
You may go to the Airport once if there are no other targets, only noob jihadists jihad the Airport more than once. It also pisses off alot of people and you may get kicked for it.
After a succesful jihad always remember to type "ALLAHU ACKBARR!" in the global chat

If you are lucky to get some good teamplyers with VoIP in your squad, JD's way is probably the best.
However, if you're unlucky, wich you will be in most cases, flanking is the key.
Take the first bridge on the right hand when you leave the palace, then follow the main street up to the Norteastern most bridge and flank the Checkpoint from the North and blow some infidel IFV's up.

Jihads can also be done with great efficiency on foot. In urban areas where the fighting is inf on inf it is often hard to do jihads with vehicles.
Solution is to sneak around untill you find an enemy squad.
Drop one of your C4's so you can detonate the last one alot faster. Then find a sneak around til you find a good position relatively close to them behind them, then sprint and blow the infidels up in a cool Hollywood style explosion.

This is not exactly a jihad, but it still contains alot of explosives and wild explosions. You set IED's the bridge leading down to the Checkpoint, then hide in the compound East of it and wait for infidels to come across. The warrior can't swim so even if you don't blow him up but still manage to get the bridge gone under him he will die.


Will update soon with more tips and tricks, feel free to add your own.

The kits name is Ambusher so think about that. Jihad up a car with your IEDs and then find a position out of sight where a warrior is likely to go past or at least get near, or alternatively where the Merlin might do a drop. Now this is where your squadmates come in handy.

You sit in the car and once a Warrior is nearby have them distract the gunner so he is looking at least 90 degrees away from the direction you will be coming from. An RPG round will usually do this nicely Once the turret turns away from you, gun it and drive straight at the Warrior as fast as possible. Try to avoid going for its front as the driver will see you coming if its actually double crewed. Head for one of the sides or the rear. Get as close as you can and then blow it! BOOM! One dead Warrior.

If you are going to go for the Merlin then be careful to avoid any Wariors in the area but typically if you don't head straight at a Warrior its not going to go after you if it has someone trying to kill it. Drive up to the Merlin and then BOOM! One dead Merlin.

A squad of 3-4 is all that is needed to Jihad properly and its all about timing. If you drive at your target too soon its going to have time to see you. Too late and your risking being seen bu other enemy units before you can Jihad your target. The rest of your squad should move to a location away from the Jihad car and then try to distract your target or any Infantry trying to guard it. For the Warrior fire off an RPG and then have standard kits players run around in the open a little bit. This way you should keep the RPG kit alive and you can keep the target busy while you drive at it.

Well thats how I do it anyway. Hope someone finds this useful.

EDIT: Yeah I forgot that you MUST play the cantina music while you drive at your target for the shame value as yopu even give them a chance to hear you coming and still you blow them up!

Don't forget the Star Wars cantina music

The Star Wars bar music ROCKS!!! if i ever cap VCP with my squad i will always get in the red car there and play it personally i like to start a round with a technical strapped with C4 from the palace and go along the main road, past the VCP and bomb whatever i find, or sometimes go to the village and do the same, but flanking them and coming from the north

Don't forget your variations of "Allahu Ackbarr" either.

Admiral Ackbar, Allah guide me to the snack bar, its a trap, etc...

[Cerberus]

I typically start the cantina music right before the detonation, as it keeps playing after the jihad and humiliates your enemy while he's looking at his charred Warrior IFV.

The Basrah Bomb Bike

The bike is a very unstable platform, as it maneuvers much like a sex toy and blows up faster than you can say "Allah akbar!" However, its speed, agility, and quick respawn time more than make up for these shortcomings. Did I mention you don't need to detonate the C4, a la Toyota truck bomb?

If you wish to do a successful jihad against the enemies of Allah, you must remember that the bomb bike (it becomes a bike bomb the second you put C4 on it) is a very delicate instrument that requires precision second to none. When going over hills or changes in terrain, release the throttle until you return to flat ground. If you need to navigate through a series of obstacles, be sure you are not going too fast... one lag spike and you're done for.

Be sure that other people on your team are constantly spotting APC's and helicopters. A jihadist must always knows where the infidels are. Once you know the location of where you are going to strike, flank around the map and attack from behind. This is the least protected area and gives you the highest probability of success. On the contrary, an enemy vehicle in the city has much less time to respond to your threat and can usually be attacked from any direction.
If you are going up against a highly defended target in the open, such as the Vehicle Checkpoint, it is useful to use two or three bikes at once, from multiple directions. Using the semi, Toyota, or car for attacking something in the open is very risky and can lead to your demise as a result of the low speed of the aforementioned vehicles.

I might add to this later.

Find the area of dead ground just NE of the bridge N of VCP and wait until any engine noise receeds instead of increasing in volume.

Drive bike up warriors tail-pipe.

how do u play the music then?

[DarkTalon]

one thing be patient when you are jihading, theres is no point in wasting a jihad vehicle when you could just wait for the target to come to you. civilian spotters can best accomplish this.
