Also, you need to squad with an SL who will be a bit more disciplined and not put themselves in the frontline all the time. Kit selection will be important as it overemphasizes medics, leaving squads more vulnerable to vehicles. I could see a squad of ground troops back by a squad of vehicles running over flags like there was no tomorrow.
BTW, the vehicle drop is an awesome way of covering ground while a commander is waiting for a radar to come back online. They may track a squad on foot, but will lose sight for a while. You can be on the other side of the map by the time the radar comes up. The key is finding a commander who will support the squads with drops vs. having fun killing fools.

I will give it a try again tonight after watching the season finale of Lost. In hindsight and after having a few hours to contemplate what transpired last night, I have come to the conclusion that it was mostly the 2MC guys hunting me down. Their commander was really good at spotting ninjas such as myself. His arty strikes seemed to kill at least 3 or 4 of our teammates each time.
I was too preoccupied being a medic and keeping myself alive instead of being the Master of C4 and pwning those armoured vehicles that were hunting me down on the other side of the river. But when I did start owning the armour they had ground troops supporting the armour so I had little chance against 3 or 4 guys chucking grenades at me and an APC causing splash damage everywhere. I was just frustrated that anything I did was quickly erased a few seconds later.
As you said, those 2MC guys were world class BF2 players. And it showed.

Hey Cack,
Yes that 2MC commander was excellent. He kept a few of us busy hunting down anyone who tried to sneak behind our lines. I've rarely seen a commander on the non-OMO side do that. Usually the non-OMO side is in disarray and has a commander who tosses out a UAV once in awhile.

OK. Next time they play, I go full time on his assets. See how he likes someone messing with his toys.

notice that the arty was already smoking, so it was severely damaged.
Still, you could smack down any crate that was dropped to repair something.
Hey....heres an idea for the next patch. Make it so that a vehicle can't be dropped unless its within a certain distance of a teammate.

I did notice that it was already smoking which meant that it was at least halfway damaged. But if you keep dropping your cars on top of the arty it will eventually explode.
HAHAH!! Today was pretty awesome. I was sniping and the commander on the other team tried to drop a car on my head. What did I do? I held E and I entered the vehicle!  So now when I am capping a flag I will hold down E and all will be well.

I believe BCO Fox tried this yesterday, and it worked! Have to get it just right. I had a ton of the enemies vehicles landing on me yesterday when capping a flag in a tank. Did little to no damage, but was annoying as heck!

1 drop arty destruction is possible and has been verified. Expect some nerfing in a a future patch or hot fix.
