The best feeling is to call in strategems for the they haven't unlocked yet. They don't always want to take yours but often it's a lot of fun because they won't unlock it for a while yet.
Every now and then I do, but way more often than I'd like they just call eagles and orbarrages on your head without prejudice.
The last time I did that, it was on a flag mission with no reinforcements nor time left, I went for a desperate attempt to survive long enough for the flag to rise.
It was working too, thanks to a supply pod and hulk bodies acting as cover, but then someone called a 380 without me noticing and died; the same thing also happened twice before we ran out of reinforcements.
The only time I’ve ever really been really frustrated with it is on a defensive mission where we are holding position and some cadet literally blankets the map with a centrally dropped 380MM - which then proceeds to wipe every sentry, every defensive environment barrier, and team kills the whole squad for a solid 20s… no matter where you land.

I did something like that with a younger rookie diver at one point with the jump pack and feel like I made his day.
He was blown away by the Senator trick spin.

Closest I ever felt to the Master Chief to real players is when I drop in and help a squad of 3 rookies just annihilate mission objectives.

And when you drop into a level 150 solo farmer you become a farmer :)
