It might be interesting to compile a list of the most common noob sub warfare misconceptions. Personally, I don't have enough experience with veteran and new players to know.

For example, when teaching online air combat, noobs almost invariably believed that dogfighting was the art of yanking the stick and turning as hard as possible into your adversary.

The availability of online play shouldn't require restricting publishing and access to information and techniques. In that regard, the Battlefront forums for the Combat Mission series provide a very positive example. The forums are incredibly educational despite the fact that many players play PBEM or TCP. Although I only play SP, reading posts from online players has greatly enriched my experience.
