Well this would be a complete bugger to model but i think the crappy BF2 (tiny) SAM sites should be replaced with this crazy *** mofo of a SAM (its used by the British Artillery obviously)

Agreed. There should be SAM sites that take a while to reload.

Stingers should not be used against F-35s/Mig-29s/etc

Actually being worked on, so a little patience

niceee

arnt they called rapiers?

yup, rapier is not artillery though, its a surface to air missile, for british artillery we have allready got a moddled AS90 (in the image gallery).

What weapons do the brits have?

Apache
tornado
rapier
AS90
merlin
Harrier
FV-series of vehicles
Land rover
Warrior
Challenger II
SA80 II
LSW (hopefully)
Minimi
LAW/Milan
Browning.

Not a final list but a start, we are also modelling charchters as we speak, so they should be coming soon!

Cool any idea of new maps you will be adding? Also after the brits is there a chance of the iraq army?

Yeah, a huge majority of BF2's few maps are pretty bad. More urban maps or more maps that cover a large open battlefield.

Most bf2 maps are big and hilly and deformed. I would like a flat little hilly desert map with the us v iraq. With tanks and trenches. Also some kind of bombing planes like the blach hawk. Urban maps a good but i would like some gosh dare trenches. They are still used in moderen combat but i havent seen any in bf2. If the urban maps had trenches they would wook great for AT.

blach hawk? black hawk? helicopter?


i agree with the trenches though, those were used by iraqis in the begining of the war there now.

Yer i was gona post about an new arty idea but then i saw that picture and posted about that without changing the subject title.

Didn't that Rapier manage to detect some US stealth jets during an exercise?

The RAF Regiment were using them at the time I believe;

It's not hard. "Stealth" doesn't actually work all that well. They show up on old low-wave radar systems which are very common among poorer armies, and most modern armies use long and shortwave in tandem "just incase". Oh and they don't work at all when it rains.

Looks like the good ol' UK's pretty much immune from Stealth attacks then.

Yes i know that the ardy is used by itself. But i would like some self used ardy like bombers. Or mortars its would make it more real if you guys would make some bomber planes. Also maybe a class with mortars.

I like the idea of Artillery being replaced alltogether by B-52 strikes (for the USA & UK sides anyway), maybe there could be a small model made to appear really really high in the sky just before the bombs hit...

i like my idea better

If bombers are added I hope they're not player controled. Plus most air strikes are carried out by fighters these days like F-18's and Tornado's. Only the really heavy bombing is done by big things like the B-52's.
