Rifleman Binos!

:grin:

I was reading the Wiki for the WIP changes for .6, and came across the rifleman layout!

Kit

Knife
Entrenching Tool
Assault Rifle with Optics (8+1 magazines)
Fragmentation Grenade x 4
Smoke Grenade x 2
Ammo Reupply Bags x 3
Binoculars
Field Dressing x 1
Body Armor

I proudly can say I always play the rifleman kit.. unless something is drastically needed ( HAT from that supply drop up the hill etc. )

Im psyched, not only do we get binos ( Im not much for wanting to be a spotter, but it helps out with those extremly long range stare at my ironsight for a second moments ) but we get 2 more frag nades 8-)

I think the only reason I would pull out the old "Spec-Ops" kit would be for the binos, but now I'm jumping for joy hoping all this will be set in .6 :D

I think its the tool rifleman/engineers use to make the bunkers for command.

Entrenching Tool.... makes a trench?

Its to build the commander assets.

If you don't pay attention you will miss these small details that have already been posted.

This is very very good news. I often play AP rifleman just for bins, so very useful on the PR battlefield. Give them to the Medics as well, just for me please, ;) as my middle name is MEDIC! in a firefight.

It's a magic shovel. Simply waving it in the direction of the enemy causes their vehicles to be turned into trenches. That's why it's called an 'entrenching tool'.

Yeah I don't like to take SpecOps/Grenadier often, but really the only time I take grenadier is on insurgents ( body armor really, otherwise insurgent for the standard AK ) or MEC because I despise the G3's current sights ( Yeah Yeah I know its getting changed later on :P )

Yeah I dread the M16...

Rifleman guns id like to use mainly is, in this order:

PLA
British
MEC
Insurgent
USMC

... I love the PLA gun, just LOVE it, though it isn't as great in CQB at times
Will say the M16 has some nice stopping force im just terrible at aiming it :)

Back on topic:

Woohoo spotting things with binos makes me happy... now im even more useful.. :D
