There's loads in the new update, some is pretty pointless......like the kozlice shotgun, it's absolutely useless. The trabant aint exactly a major addition but the developers are Chech (I think) and this 2 stroke, 78bhp heap 'o toejame is big in the east, apparently.

Yep I don't understand the Trabant thing but it's some kind of obsession. Get this:
Northolt Wing is at the USAF Museum, the largest military aircraft museum in existence. We can look at almost every plane flown by the USAF and their opponents since WWI. But noooooooooo, our Polish and Russian pilots want to stop and take pictures by the Trabant that is in the museum lobby!

I think the shotgun is for multiplayer.

M163 is fun as hell though. I made a mission with some INF squads and trucks and Scuds going down a road, then put myself on a nearby hill with Mr. Thundermaker.

Hehe the Trabant rocks - I've heard the bodywork is made out of paper or plastic and is prone to catching fire if the engine overheats...

More importantly, in Flashpoint I may have invented a new sport - see how far you can get a Trabant to go with only 3 satchel charges

I finally had time to play this sucker... Holy crap! The single mission where you make the attack with the Abrams platoon. Going through the trees buttoned up with all the smoke and fire and dust and noise and radio chatter... Best "boxed game" I have ever played.

Drill I bought mine here on Badger's advice: http://www.softwarefirst.com/Product.asp?WebRef=10094180

But it will be released in the US in a couple of weeks if you want to buy it at a local store.

Dont bother with multiplayer until the september patch, includes better net code and dedicated server software.

Right now it's warpier than a very warpy thing.
