Here's a run-down of some of the important info:
- BT can be played through the Urban Operations mod interface
- The storyline is based on copycat tangos recreating terrorist actions from the past 50 years (not 10 or 30 years as other sites have reported)
- Names of 5 of the 16 maps
- A new multiplayer mode!
- The list of all the new weapons to be included!

(Just an aside: Notice how 5 of the 14 new weapons are made by Fabrique Nationale (FN) of Belgium? Good advertising or what?)

Well I could begin a reflexion about the machine guns and their use in Rogue Spear, and having tried those in Urban Ops I don't find them very useful (excepted, of course, when you lag like hell and that you need to unload a 200-bullet magazine to kill a single foe standing in front of you ;o). Covering an assault? They are too unaccurate to be really useful, and you represent an easy target when you stand over the battle field emptying (sorry, does this word exist in English? French-speaker here ;o) your '00-round magazines. But maybe could someone teach me how to use them efficiently?

Couple things:
1. I think Vega does get to use his M60 right at the end of the novel when they arrive by helicopter to assault the Biodome structure in Brazil. You're right that he doesn't actually use it in any of the earlier CQB scenarios though, cuz the other teammates are too good and take down the tangos within a matter of seconds like they're supposed to. He's mainly there for backup firepower

2. The best way to use the light machine guns in UO is to fire very short controlled bursts to avoid your reticle flaring too much. They are mainly useful if you are actually working as a team. The whole point is that you lay down cover fire while the rest of your team advances.

But I don't see yet the efficiency of it in Rogue Spear (well, I see that you can, at the image of Julio, take a good time shooting at the windows on chalet or nuclear power plant ;o)
