Battlefield 1 is a cooperative game with each member of the team doing their responsibility. However, the leader has a bigger responsibility to bring his squad to victory. Here are a few tips to lead your team to victory if the leadership falls into your hands.

One of the first things to remember is that positioning is very important no matter what your class or position is. For example, you need to have mortars covered but should have a clear line of fire while LMGs should be positioned in mid-range. Keep on experimenting until you get the right position.

Another one is to play with the objective in mind because you will win points whether you accomplished it or not. Although it is nice to have a good headshot from time to time, it won't give you as many points as being focused on the objective. Aside from that, you also need to play with your squad because it gives you a better chance to defeat your enemies. Keep the squad balanced by splitting the classes evenly.

Next thing to remember is to adapt to the battle and terrain you are in. Always be on the look-out to the changes that are happening in-game. Be aware on the tactic changes, reinforcement Behemoths, destructible buildings, and sector capture and losses. Also be aware of what your squad is doing, keep an eye on the map and the objectives, and be ready to execute or make changes when necessary.

One element that can increase your chances of winning, is a vehicle. For example, if you are able to dominate the air, your assault team on the ground will have more freedom to attack and capture the enemy tanks and units. Air dominance, however, comes with a price as you have to sacrifice your bombing potential and choose air-to-air combat ships and fighters.
