In the last entry of Battlefield Royale we covered the basics of the Assault class. Well now it is time to go down the list with the next class, the Engineer. When you first look at this class you may feel that you can use an SMG from the same distance as a rifle. Well the fact is, you can't. You will have a very hard time dealing with enemies from vast distances with the recoil and accuracy of a submachine gun. The sooner you realize this, the better. And once you realize this, you will be able to utilize this class more effectively.

     With that said, Engineers are meant to get into the nitty gritty. You will be knee deep in war.  Explosions occurring all around you. Bullets whizzing by your head constantly!! YOU WILL BE LOOKING DEATH IN THE FACE! *Ahem* Sorry, I get carried away. Enough of the nonsense and back to the tutorial. The Engineer class is the guy on the front line, and this is for three reasons. First, the submachine gun as stated is terrible at a distance and with it's crazed movement you will need to stay as close to enemies as possible. Just a few rounds for each enemy and you will be golden. You always want to have a good line of sight with an SMG because it's clips go very fast.

     Secondly, the Engineer class is will be one of the two classes (second is Recon) that is taking out the enemy tanks and APC's. They have the good ol' rocket launcher and a good 2-3 shots to the side or the rear of a vehicle will destroy it. Aiming head on will do nothing as this is the area of the vehicle with the most armor. Remember: Side and Rear.

     Lastly, the irony begins. As the Engineer destroy enemy tanks, he will also be repairing his own. They have a magic wrench/soldering gun that, in seconds, repairs even the weakest of vehicles. Be sure to spawn as the Engineer when spawning into a vehicle because you play a crucial role in that vehicle's survival. Be sure to find good cover behind whatever you are repairing, because the five seconds or so it takes for a full repair could mean death for you. Always be cautious on the battlefield. Don't just go to any vehicle in need of repair. If you feel it is a lost cause then don't even risk it. Play smart.

     So let's recap the Engineer:

1. Shoot at close range! The SMG's are horrid at long distance

2. Shoot in bursts! I will always say this but it is a vital rule for the entire game.

3. Destroy all moving metal objects on the double.

4. Repair your friendly vehicles

     Well, that does it for this edition of Battlefield Royale. Next up will be the Medic class! Stay tuned.
