Looks good. I can't wait to drop molotov cocktails on unsuspecting newbs. Death from above!

Personally, I'd love to drop a tigersnake from that gyro copter

I'd like to drop bullets. Hmm.....I just thought, maybe, just maybe, they'll make it so you can mount weapons on vehicles and such? That'd be cool having a gyro with a minigun or something....it'd kick it back so far, it'd be ridiculous. Heh.

That'd flip it right over. Which would be dumb for someone to do, but real, real cool to watch someone do.

What I really look forward to, is seeing a vehicle flipped over from firing a cannon. The picture i have in my mind of this mod, after reading the cannon description, is someone driving a dune buggy real fast, and some jackass on top firing the cannon as the driver makes a turn, flipping the whole thing over. So, so cool. I <3 wasteland 2042, already.

All you really have to do to see insanely stupid stunts being pulled by inept morons that end up killing everyone riding in the vehicle is join any Battlefield 1942 server...

Nah. Most people get TKed by plane campers before they can get into any vehicle anyways.
