Fun tactic: AT & Littlebird

Problem with that is when the BH hovers still for a shot/volley or even slows down, it makes a nice big target for anything that locks onto aircraft, and damn near everything else with reach.

....Once they know just what that BH is actually doing.

That and most people know that the BH can fire back with the mini's, so they take cover usually. The transport LB's are generally ignored because they usually don't shoot at you!

The H-AT has double zoom, so your pretty safe from RPGs. Apart from that the pillot needs to be extremely dextrous, and there has to be constant communication.

cant wait to see what 2 javelines and 2 support gunners could do on a lb
talk about a 1 crew army

In Baghdad, we had a squad and we basically took down mostly all enemies from a LB. Our entire mission was on the littlebird and we did not land one single time. Effective VOIP, good pilot, 1 sniper, 1 heavy AT, and you've got an unstoppable force at the air.


After that, we did everything in the BH..though LB is much better since it is harder to shoot down the sky and is more flexible for the riders in the LB. It really isn't hard to shoot from a LB because of the stability.

Oh, you mean the LB doesn't have guns? LOL! A couple times an LB was shooting stuff at me, and I thought it was actually armed! Guys up there were really coordinated, since the LB looked like it was firing--no awkward stuff. It was really smooth.

Edit: Wow, I'm an idiot. It seems that there is an armed and an unarmed LB. Oops.

As mongol and other members of ARRC at the battle of Jabal can attest, it is very effective.
