I think the two images below should suffice to highlight how brutal the battle for Lakka was!

nice ones! Glad to see how much the arty actually does. It's a bit hard as an infantryman to see the bigger picture sometimes  

 

@Williams, who is the BMP to your right? Couse I was sitting in the one to your left when the right one got fuuuuuuuuucked up and you didn't even flinch

Haha, that was the FST vehicle. When it got hit, it blew out our tracks - after attempting to get the rusty can moving again, Scarle yelled at me that Ellis had been injured and wasn't responding. In my usual heroic way (lol) I jumped out to try and drag him out of the vehicle, but I assume he must have just got out himself because he didn't come up in the vehicle interaction. As I moved round the back of the vehicle I actually realized the FST vehicle had been blown up (I thought we had taken the hit at first), and was confronted with a burning wreckage. It promptly decided to blow a fireball in my face and alas, I was no more. 

 

Was a good mission though, eventually I got picked up by the CSM and spent the next half hour as his driver, ferrying supplies and people back and forth. That was pretty fun.

Aah, that explains it xD
