Royal Flush, one of two singleplayer campaigns included in this first expansion for Armed Assault, opens with one of the most painful exercises in Cutscene Theatre ever committed to disc. The horrifying creepiness of immobile models spouting misogynistic Hur Hur Guns dialogue, like Barbie for NRA members, is all the more bemusing for being so unnecessary.

If I had anything close to a decent PC, I would be all over this. Arma II is f@cking awesome.

Artillery
Howitzers and mortars provide decisive long-range support to advancing troops. Many artillery pieces are capable of firing special ammunition, such as flares or laser-guided rounds, or even to lay down a smokescreen.
