Pack hunter

Overview

A pack moves through stages — unaware, alert, stalking, hunting, retreating — and each member takes a role:

• Pressurer — keeps the target busy head-on.
• Flanker — circles round the side.
• Baiter — draws the target into a bad position.
• Reserve — waits for an opening.

Pack members chase where they believe their prey is, and only lunge at a target they can actually perceive. They never read where a projectile is going.
