Command Circuit
Command and control tactical communication is accomplished via a linked encrypted radio circuit among the members of a squad. This feature is called the "command circuit" or (again in typical tribal parlance) "the Bleed." The command circuit, abbreviated "CC," enables a commanding officer to coordinate the actions of her squad, by setting waypoints, issuing orders, and providing other tactical direction as needed.
The tribals customarily maintain a sub-channel as a "public" frequency. Any tribal who patches into it can communicate with any other tribal within range-even the enemy. Nicknamed the "patch" or the "underbleed," this integrated radio channel is commonly used for taunts, challenges, and sometimes negotiations. It is an optional channel, and most tribals find it sufficiently annoying that they simply keep it mute.
