Folk ARPS

Redbears : B2 AT. After scoring a direct hit on a Marid cruising straight towards us, it decided that I wasn't on its Christmas card list anymore. AirEola : Indfor Alpha Medic. Mostly hanging out with ASL Dogface. I followed him into town where he mounted a truck and took fire from a technical up t...

Fluffeh, you beat me to it, and you have practically the same footage as I do because you followed me after you died. feN_0Afs5L8 Soon after touchdown I saw the BTR-40 cruising towards us, shouted for stff to get set up in that direction, and then tried to get him to follow me to a shed next to the ...

Nope. You should come along for the main session on Sunday.

A healthy dose of night time with no NVGs. The Back Foot : Opfor MMG Assistant. MMG and a two-man Bravo 1 (AR & AAR) were sent far South as a BOF. We bumped into EI at ~50m in the trees, engaged, and since we didn't have any nearby supporting elements, made a smoke screen and retreated to reposition...

Snipe Hunt : Blufor A1 FTL. We were dropped off to the SE of Zargabad + 1 Tired Hippo and slowly made our way to the mosque taking light resistance before the mission was over. I had my team switch to 343 channel 3 to cut off A2's comms bleeding into ours. Main Focus : A1 AAR. I was the jackel driv...

I've got Black Shark 2, A10C, HUEY, and Mi8 MTV2. I'm better at the Ka50 than the others, but even then I'm only at the stage of being proud of trimming a smooth flight and not entering a vortex state. The A10C seems easier to fly but I don't really know the systems. If this is going to be a (semi) ...

Maps wise, I agree with a fair few of the suggestions so far (Clafghan, MBG Nam, SMD Sahrani in particular) and would have to add F.A.T.A. to the list (http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=22057) since it's absolutely beautiful. I just checked out F.A.T.A and it's fantastic. Also, those MRAPs you p...
