BackDraft

I use the armory in ARMA 2 to get some practice in. It's not exact... But you can pick your vehicle.

I had admins (wont mention the server) spawn in a v-22 osprey and chase me in a Huey, typing in the side chat that if I landed, they'd kill me.... I thought, no big... I'm a decent pilot, I should be able to make them crash... Then I saw it... red text in the chat saying Server reset in 5 minutes. They forced me to stay airborn until the reset. Didn't die, but heli was toast. I don't normally get attached to gear....but I worked my ass off to fix and fill that damn thing, for them to just take it away. Ran to the coast, gave all my gear(Alice full of med sup. food drink. An m4a1 CCO w/ 7mags, PDW) to a Bambi, and logged out. Never to return.

A backdraft is when a fire inside a closed room burns SUPER HOT and eats up all the oxygen. It's still hot enough to burn, and has lots of fuel, but is starved of oxygen so it smolders (waits) until oxygen is introduced. Once oxygen is let in (door opened, window broken) it rapidly ignites everything, even the air inside the room, so fast the it causes explosive-like forces. As a firefighter it is one of the aspects of firefighting that still scares me. Plus it describes my playing style; lay low, blend in as best I can, stay out of everyone's way.... Then BOOM! You strike :)

Somewhere between the bloodsuckers beady red eyes and the children's screams floating on the wind, I actually got a little freaked out last night... Playing on good headphones the first time the bloodsucker growled at me = shat my pants Love it! Could do without the EVR tho.

Did you log out while the combat countdown was going on? that is programmed into most servers, if you log out while in combat, you lose all your shit. :)
