Fun with high explosives?

Tonight I have come to the conclusion that the C4 is by far the best implement of deviant mayhem. One APC, 2 or 3 trucks, and about a dozen infantry would be forced to agree, if you could collect all their bits.
We were on Fools Road as Militia, closing in on the final CP from the south. The Brits suddenly capped one of the CP's behind us, but we thought we'd take it back, so two squads pressed on, only to be met right at the doorstep by an APC and a fierce infantry counter attack. I took some rounds, my squad mates bought it, and I go prone... then see an APC rear up in front of me, facing off to my right. Ten feet away, through my blurry, mortally wounded vision. Up, sprint, prone, plant, count 5 one thousand... BOOM!!!!! Launched into orbit, scratch one APC.
So I respawn at our rally about 200m south of there... we're already taking sporadic fire, no doubt they are pressing onwards looking for the rally. Two of us stay behind and die repeatedly holding them off while the SL crosses the river to set a new rally.
Finally, they're in sight of the rally, and we have some brutal close range fighting in the dense trees. The SL needs another man for the new rally, so I leave a little present in the old one and run down the hill. On my way down, another squad mate spawns there and keeps fighting. As I slide down the clif and land in the water, I pull out my map and tell him to get out, but both he and the spawn wink out on the map. Red button.. BOOM!!!! Scratch 5 Brits, cue maniacal laughter.
And so on.. got another half dozen infantry and some trucks later, in hits ranging from last stands to sneaky ambushes.
