I had a thought. A few of the phrases you used wouldn't really fit, but I was thinking of how to make it convenient to access these phrases without giving people hellish key layout issues, and it came to me. Make it one key, say the t key or the f key or something relatively close at hand to the left hand, and when you press that, it makes a radio mic activation sound to let you know you're ready, and then you press a key that corresponds to a function, so say you want people to hear "Fire" or "attack" or whatever, you press t and then left click. Say you want people to follow your or advance or whatever, you press t and then right click. Or "fall back" or "wait here" could be t and then s. "I'm out of ammo" could be t and then r. tuff like that. That way, even if you did have non function messages, it would be a short list of f-keys or whatever rather than a whole load of them, and it'd decrease the learning curve on the sounds. Learning curve, after all, is a huge selling point of this game. The keys are simple and really quite intuitive.
