After seeing one too many fartillery strikes and faildams, we thought it was about time we overhauled the "Area Attacks" in PR to be properly representative of their real life counter-parts in terms of damage, firing rates and impact zones.
Mortar Barrage
This will be the primary area attack for our unconventional factions but will be available to all on smaller maps.
Weapon : 81/82mm Mortar x 2
Projectile : High Explosive
Projectile Kill Radius : 20-25m
Projectile Wound Radius : 40-50m
Impact Zone Radius : 30m
Barrage Length : 30 rounds in 30 seconds
Artillery Barrage
This will be used for conventional factions on select medium/large maps.
Weapon : 105mm Howitzer x 4
Projectile : High Explosive
Projectile Kill Radius : 35m
Projectile Wound Radius : 80m
Impact Zone Radius : 50m
Barrage Length : 24 rounds in 45 seconds
Laser Guided Bomb (JDAM)
This will be used for conventional factions on select medium/large maps.
Weapon : 1000 pound General Purpose Bomb (equivalent to a MK-83 or KAB-500L)
Kill Radius (regardless of cover) : 75m
Kill Radius (open terrain) : 175m
Wound Radius (open terrain) : 350m
I'd like to give a special thanks to [R-Dev]Ninja2Dan, who's vast real life experience as an artillery crewman was invaluable here. I'd also like to thank the Combined Arms team for helping fix the "faildam"
Side Note : For those wondering about having multiple types of area attacks on one map, this will be looked into after 0.9.
Hooray for Howitzers "fire for effect", daddy like, who knows maybe in the future the paladin system will make an appearance or MLRS which has to be one of my favorite military acronyms/words, second only to "Wet" Teams.

Being Ninja and Lone Wolfing FOB's is what PR:BF is all about, right?....
Training mode will no longer be supported in its current form in v0.9.
As some have mentioned here, its simply played too much like vbf2 with PR assets, which was not the intention of training mode at all.
just something I found while browsing the forums due to boredom.
I actually appreciate that there is something like a training server
well, I have to admit I sometimes do mess around, but not in a completely retared
way like for example celestial lol.
no seriously, I know there is PRSP and you can still creat your own local server
where you start to feel pretty lonely after some time, but at least I use the training servers
regularly to test some stuff I wouldn't dare to do on TG :O
any opinions?

Some more recent feedback from the 1stMIP videos on YouTube. I appreciate the feedback, but the professor in me cringes at the often appalling spelling and grammar . . .
