More I could not do, since he didn't have door gunners he wouldn't gain anything from getting closer.I see, but he wasn't around. He landed somewhere. Might have been a failed communication issue.

I can't really say why I was shot.You were shot from your back by two guys that flanked us (or chased us from the sniper vantage point). I don't think it was wise to make a frontal assault on that very long terminal. We were wiped out when we attacked from the right, but that was because of the Strider GMG, which we destroyed in this mission. Either that or from the left would have been better (I guess).

I was also still exhausted since I had to crawl forwards to avoid getting shot. Which really annoyed the fuck out of me, because usually I am really good with the RPG-42 (See "Hack'n'Slash video, or one time where I hit a driving BTR-K at 600 meters range with the thing. Blergh).nonetheless, we shouldn't have attacked with only one launcher at our disposal, there was that Marshal patrolling there and it also attacked us. My bad...

Unfortunately, it also proved quite deadly because one I crawled towards the edge of the narrow ditch I immediately got shot.Yeah, that was intense. It reminded me of the Bint Jbeil battle in the 2006 Lebanon war, probably because of that walled yard we were caught on when the enemy attack started.
