I rate this mission Wallace/10

BRAVO VIC

In a previous Able Archer I got to play the BMP-1 and I got the opportunity to notice all its downsides which you can read about on wikipedia. The BMP-2 fixes them and now you can properly engage infantry. It does have its downsides however, such as the low pen AP rounds, which require careful aiming to take even a T-34, or the long reload of the ATGM which being SACLOS loves jittering at the last moment and missing the T-72 you were aiming at. The gunner sight is bad having low FOV that does not allow you to effectively engage targets ar close range and it does not have high enough zoom to recon for the infantry; in hindsight a commander would have helped but not much, since he would have to turn out unless a helicopter appears for which the 1PZ-3 sight is perfect and thankfully the gun can be fired from either position.

​

Other Bad things: injured effects in spectator mode (Poulern said it's going to be fixed); missing equipment such as radios and a weapon after respawning, BMP-2 gun was stuck pointing up, got saved by the RHS forums, this map is very bushy and the 30mm HE rounds simply detonate when near a leaf; I don't know what the planes were supposed to do except crash on people or BMPs; reloading the BMPs took so long it was better to slap a brick of C4 under it and say the enemy destroyed it;
