I think it would be quite neat if squad points could be spent by the squad leader for long range fire support. For example, mortar strike and precision strike etc. They would be "fired" from your HQ and have a high ballistic arc so they could strike most places on the maps.
Ideas:
-Mortar strike - Small-medium AOE of (essentially) RPG HEAT rounds (say 5-6) raining from the sky that have a extra damage multiplier against buildings.
-Precision strike - (essentially) A single RPG Tandem but that has an additional damage multiplier.
-Area Smoke - similar the mortar strike but with smoke grenades that cover an area for an extended time.
Make it cost say 750 points, take 5 seconds to call in, then the ballistic travel time, and have a 60 second cool down. And make it so only the advanced binoculars can use this feature.
I feel this could be an interesting way to add some gameplay elements and tactics. It could also encourage squadmates to chat to the squad leader if there's difficulty in an area.
