KiraTomato and I recently downloaded the latest add-on for BF2, Armored Fury. True to its name, the three maps included are heavily based on armor to armor combat. Each side starts with at least 5 or 6 tanks with multiple APCs causing the engagements to be very very hectic with shells and cannon fire everywhere. Not surprisingly, most people tend to play Engineer/AT/Spec Ops.
Now, most would think I would just go tank-whore crazy considering my past, however Kira and I have actually spent most of the time using the attack helicopters. With so much armor and no fighter jets, the maps provide an excellent opportunity to use the TV missile. There is one great danger to attack helicopters though; it lies in the new light helicopter: the "Little Bird"
This chopper is very lightly armored but it has a very very powerful and highly accurate minigun. This minigun is controlled by the pilot and is exceptionally easy to aim while doing tremendous damage to choppers/light vehicles. It also has a built in radar sweep (Much like having a UAV taped to the bottom) that is always on.
The icing on the cake: for those of you who loved the original BF1942 theme (dun dun dun dun dun!!!) with all it's percussion and trumpets, too bad, as that's not in Armored Fury. However, the Armored Fury theme is the closest so far to the original.
