Death Warrant Forums

It's almost not fair , sort of like bringing a knife to a gun fight . :rr:

I'd hate to be the guy in the road...

Hate to be anywhere near that area!!!!

ouch. We have one difference between OpFor and the real-life Insurgents : We have Helis and they don't xD

I would rather be the guy on the road, he never even saw it coming and most likely didn't feel a thing. Now for the guy in the ditch, he just caught his buddies bone fragments to the face and most likely lost a limb or two and while screaming in agony, took several large rounds that most likely ripped him in half and then his head watched his torso bleed the death... Now that is hating life!

IED's were our number 1 fear while in Iraq. when in a convoy we didnt care getting fired at our armor and weaps can hold them off, but IED's were invisible to us. They would hide them in ditches, piles of garbage or bushes or anything on the sides of the road. Roads in that country were always littered with crap everywhere and you would never know where one could be at. The insurgents would use old bombs from other wars they found somewhere in the dirt and wire it with a cell or car battery. Alot of them blew up before they finished wiring them or didnt work when they wanted, but when they did there is nothing that our armor on our vehicles could do. Thats why i was glad i went everywhere in a helicopter.

Yea, my brothers were there early in the battle but I think at that point, RPGs and mortors were more of a problem, at least that is all they spoke of. My one brother was calvary and watched his buddies get blown up before his eyes. He would tell me he would hear incoming mortors through the night, sometimes very close but most of the time not.
