But his platoon commanders would probably all be shitting bricks.

Oh I would have to disagree- the following video is after the initial start of a fairly heavy contact. The lad talking at the start of the video is the platoon commander.

Seen that before, we probably all have, but he's not surrounded, taking effective fire at all (let alone heavy) and seems to have plenty of ammo.

just as another random thought/suggestion. and i would like constructive comment here.
is it impossible to replace the wrench and wrench functions on a combat engineer, with say a oxy torch(the small handheld one), and if possible how much can you tweek the functions of a wrench/oxy torch to perform more tasks?

I think this may unbalence the game??? maybe i dunno.... As for making it do more thats coding witch is someone elses job :P

i am really only thinking of a aesthetics change, to change the look of the wrench more than any thing, i didn't really think we could make it do other stuff, (just a wild fanciful wish). and i guess you'd be right. probably be very unbalanced.

(and to kill the comment that i know will come, i did use search, and no those threads are not the same)
