All hail the scimitar, the vehicle that can easily get to places other vehicles cannot reach. (Yes i know someone has parked a CH2 in some good places too).

Post your screenshots of the tightest holes your scimitar has gotten into.

(N.B. I would recommend reducing them to at least 640x480 to avoid the thread getting too bloated).

#1 Up the stairs and against the wall.




#2 Up a very steep hill on Mestia overwatch.



#3 On the wing of the crashed plane.



#4 Within defensive sandbags too small for a warrior.



#5 And you thought Landrovers were the only vehicles who could do this on Mestia.



#6 Using the fieldgun-pit for a new purpose.



#7 Concrete defences in Helicopter-Base - Fools Road (Perfect defence of the stairwell)



#8 Urban Steps



Hope you enjoyed them, i want to see who can do better, and post funnier pictures of the scimitar in hard-to reach places.

Hopefully some of these have some tactical value too.

Haha! Fuzzhead and I parked it at the bottom of Storage Bunker on Mestia. We had to use a Land Rover to help push us up the ramp, as we forgot to install the high torque engine back in base. Good post! I got a nice chuckle.

lol ya I found a great spot today. The insrgents hated it. We killed a truck and bomb car from here. then as foot inf we killed about 20 trying to get there uber kits.

Let me guess, you and fuzz spend the whole round trying to get that thing out?

Fuzzhead wasnt there (I guess thats who youre talking about) I had to abandon her after about 10 min of trying to get it back up

Haha, Nice PantslessMidget. Imagine doing that with a whole squad breaching and clearing, but clearly distracted by the cute RV tank spraying the hiding Militia down.

Ah, my mistake, Fuzzhead was telling us how he got his scimitar stuck in the same area. He also could not get up because of the lack of torque and what not. Said something about getting a Landie down there and pushing it out.

The scimitar is my favorit vehicle right now, you can get up on every hill on fools road

But it can get blown up by small arms fire

Is it just me, or is this part really funny? Or I just have a dirty mind?

Wow, brits ride with style.

And props to getting it into the storage bunker on mestia. That would be an unpleasant surprise....

you expect us brits to go anywhere without tea or coffee?

i for one want tea facilities in my typhoon!

Somehow the Scimitar is smaller than the ATV, but it is not at the same time.

Saracen APC's used to drive round with big urns of tea strapped to their back in N.I. Squaddies used to run up, grad a brew then back on with the job at hand...

Lets see those screenshots. I'm sure you can do better than I. Of course try to do it on a local server, don't disrupt the op for the team for scimitar art.

I can't blame you there, I game while drinking sweet tea, I guess it's a southern thing here in America.

I always seem to notice that the tank in the loading screen after logging in has a cooler strapped up on top.
