I think I could make it down to London on the 5 September:-)

Also note that ingame VON is kinda badly optimized in arma, and is heavily dependant on the server load/bandwidth. Usually big numbers will mess up VON (yesterday, at the beginning of Running Rabbit, I couldn't hear a word Strang was saying, it got better as the mission went on), and if you happen ...

No I wasnt using a beta patch. I have tried adjusting the mic settings in the arma2 options menu but nothing seems to work

Running Rabbit Did anyone else have a really weird start to this mission? At the spawn point I found that everyone including myself was buried up to their waists in the ground (in the spectator view as well). I have never seen that before.

I would like to see more of these sorts of missions where support weapons are available under ROE with the proviso that if you take that slot you need to be damn sure that you have the situational awareness and discipline to use the power of the weapons platform judiciously.

Hmm being shot in the face at point blank range by a minigun is a novel experience I haven't had before!
