Strategy
This ability is best used against groups of enemies near a choke point, like a door way or a small hall way. The barricade, combined with your team, functions as a blockade, and your team will be able to take out the foes immediately. Use a flamethrower with the barricade to quickly take out your opponents in the choke point.
