1-2 brought theirs back. I was carrying / manning it throughout the mission. You can see it on my shoulder in the picture at the end. My character was towards the right end of the line-up, crouching down in the front line.

Question for any of the sections peppered by the 7.62 and main gun of the MBT's along with the artillery barrage. How well did the trenches protect you?

Pretty well. I had vehicle cook off right next to my trench and start throwing ammo out in all directions. My trench protected me from that.

Rather well from 1-1's perspective, apart from the 155mm that landed in the trench.

Some people were creating foxholes, that afforded even better protection.

From memory and my perspective that 155mm landed outside the entrenchment but close. Shock wave rather than shrapnel perhaps?  They looked effective against small arms and MG fire though. I laced Bagel's with quite a bit of coax and it seemed pretty substantial. I put a missile into a position near th 1-0/mortar area, dunno if that had any effect.

Wish I knew what they were called in eden.

Yep, they were effective against arty and 7.62 (apart from when I poked my head up wich proved deadly).
