For a single Arty IED:
  • 80m blast radius
  • 48m infantry kill radius (anyone within 48m is dead)
  • 19m G-wagon/Logi truck kill radius
  • 17m LAV-III kill radius

Those statistics have to be wrong. A HMMWV ran over my arty IED once and it drove about 5m before I detonated it, only started to smoke.

A Humvee is not a g-wagon.

I think it was a one off occurrence. I just tried it an arty IED on a humvee from 10m away and it destroyed it. You can probably destroy it from further away.

I'd keep arty IED's at least 100m away from caches (80m blast radius + 20m safety factor). The blast is kinda weird because it doesn't hurt you through walls or terrain but it can destroy vehicles and caches. However I know of people who lay IED's around the cache and blow it when the cache is destroyed but that has the risk of someone grabbing your kit and setting them off prematurely.

I'm sure you can, I destroyed a logi from about 15-17m on Fallujah.

If I may, my reaction now wiil be typing hugest OMFG.
I seriously thought the top picture is fake for moment.

Since its widely known now because of this post, Game play will be changing rapidly. We aught to see complaint soon, as no other map experienced such number of artillery IEDs.
I think this change was not announced widely on purpose.

Is other map with Taliban have this many IED kit too?
What other change isn't announced?
