    [ATTACH=CONFIG]20509[/ATTACH]
    Today saw the release of the big, and free, Bushranger Content Update for Rising Storm 2: Vietnam. This update includes new weapons, new maps, a new ability for commanders, a new vehicle, and the Australians.
    The Bushranger Content Update for Rising Storm 2: Vietnam includes:

    New Weapons
    • L1A1 SLR – The backbone of the Australian Army’s arsenal, this 7.62 NATO semi-automatic is available for the grunt class
    • L2A1 LMG – Machine gunners will be able to choose this fully automatic version of the L1A1, with an added bipod and fire selector for precision aiming
    • Owens SMG – First brought into service during World War II, the gravity-assisted 9mm machine carbine was still used by troops during Vietnam
    • F1 SMG – Similar to the British Sterling, this 9mm submachine gun comes with semi and full automatic fire modes and a detachable bayonet
    • Browning Hi-Power Pistol – Semi-automatic 9mm sidearm sporting a 13-round magazine

    New Maps
    • Long Tan – NLF forces will be tasked with attacking a defensive position set in a rubber plantation on a dark and stormy night
    • Rung Sac – Battle in the Vietnamese marshlands, culminating with a last stand in an old Indochina-era fortress
    • Operation Forrest – A large-scale map taking place across swamps and farmland, this map features the games longest engagement distances to-date

    New Commander Ability
    • The Canberra Bomber – Australian Forces commanders can now call in English Electric Canberra bombers to carpet bomb an area along a set path. New UI features have been added to help commanders direct the trajectory of this ability as well as the existing Napalm Strike ability

    New Vehicle
    • Huey ‘Bushranger’ Attack Helicopter – Complete with folding-fin aerial rockets (FFAR) and adjustable miniguns for the pilot and co-pilot, and dual mounted M60 door guns for passengers

    • Bug fixes and improvements in response to community feedback

    In addition to this new content, Tripwire says that the game will be on sale from now until December 1 at 10AM (PT) for 50% through Steam. For those that like full patch notes, you can check out the full 1.05 changelog on the Tripwire forums.
