    I'd be grateful if someone could point me towards an explanation of how to use these items as I haven't been able to find one. Also V1 rockets.

    I found a jeep sitting next to my gold airfield on an island. How did it get there?

    The following are the commands you seek. When typing commands, it is not necessary to include the [ or ].

    .mine [distance] [azimuth] fire mine to distance (feet) azimut(degree). Available in JU52 only. Can be launched while airborne.
    .zalp [n] fire n minen at once. Available in JU52 only.

    .startfau [distance] [azimuth] [0|1] start V-1 missle. Distance (meters) azimut (degree). 0 - not as observer 1 - as observer. Distance and direction from launch, and not available from small fields.

    .commandos [fXX] launch commandos to destroy enemy field. Distance to launch not more 20000 ft and not less 1000 ft from target tower. XX = field number eg. f21 Available from JU52 or LI2 only. Can be launched while airborne.

    .hmack start human ack. Only available from tower, at land based field. Also works with tank - use .tank instead of .hmack. To get out, simply eject.

    .hmack - turn left 5 degrees. While in jeep.

    .hmack + turn right 5 degrees. While in jeep.

    .hmack -N turn left N degrees. While in jeep.

    .hmack +N turn right N degrees. While in jeep.

    .hmack [XXX] move in XXX direction. While in jeep. Also works with tank - use .tank instead of .hmack.

    .hmack stop stop moving. While in jeep. Also works with tank - use .tank instead of .hmack.

    .remdron remove your own drone from arena. (commandos or V1)

    Most of these commands are available in-game by typing .help while in the tower.

    regards, Oz

    I try to explain.
    1. JEEPS. These are mobile ack ack guns. To get jeep type in".hmack" . you move jeep by telling it where to go ie N=360, S =180.etcc.

    2. Commandos . These are troops deployed from a JU 52 or Li2 (whichever red/gold.) onto enemy airfield. To drop commandos type ".commandos fxx" where "xx " is field number.

    3. V-1 Rockets. These are rockets deployed from your own med/large field. To start V-1 Type ".startfau xxxxx yyy 1(or2)" where xxxxx = distance and yyy= direction in degrees. Ifyou want a free ride type in "1" if you wanna send it without pilot type "2"

    Hope this helps someone....GL

    Mines, those are aimed mortars to be fired by a commando...

    No?

    Consult Nicae's site to make sure :)

    Mines are availeable for Ju52/Li2 pilot to shoot the field. Commando has his own armament. But to shoot mines while airborne? I have enough trouble aiming them while landed near enemy field ... :D

    Mines are for those dang moments when you sneak up on a field and instead of landing near it ditch. Then you can shoot your mines at the buildings at the field, hopefully destroying it so you can release your paratroopers.

    BUT, they are too small to hurt buildings much (approximately same as commandos mortar I think) AND it's hard to pinpoint your shots.
    As Oz, said: heading + distance.
    Ya right :p I think I need at least 4 or 5 mines to get the aim good...

    ...but then I suck at this
    :D
    ...also

    BTW, Imo only JU52 has mines, aint it so?
