Rally Point Main article: Rally Points Request Main article: Request Reinforcements War Assets Main article: Steel Rain If the squad is inside a platoon, the squad's waypoint will become a squad-colored waypoint labelled appropriate to that squad (such as 'Alpha Squad Waypoint' or 'Bravo Squad Waypoint'), and all fireteam waypoints will also have their colors changed to the squad's color. The squad leader does not need to place members into a fireteam to have access to its waypoint. However, the squad leader is the only player with access to these specific five waypoints at once. The platoon leader can also place and move that squad's waypoint at any time, and the fireteam leader appropriate to the given waypoint can do the same to their fireteam's waypoint. The squad leader's waypoints are not unique. The squad waypoint is visible to the entire platoon whereas fireteam waypoints only the appropriate squad, if the squad is in a platoon. Squad leaders, alongside their personal waypoint still only visible to them, also have access to a Squad waypoint, as well as squad-specific fireteam waypoints, one for each individual fireteam-Diamonds, Spades, Hearts, and Clubs-which the leader can place at any time. Squad leaders have access to an expanded selection of Waypoints to place on the map.

Squad leaders gain access to an expanded arsenal of map options to choose from. Map Options are available on the map and minimap if the user right clicks in a space not occupied by a friendly player, and allows them to place a variety of waypoints and other tactical icons and deployables.
