Thanks INSPIRE for the mirror _b _b

Comes with a new map "Road to Jalalabad". Which is another street fighting one like Karkand. But the best bit of this map is no planes or helicopters.

Sweeeeet we managed to get 16 odd people on the other night!
Started out as a few of my clannies mucking around and soon enough we had a full compliment of nz players (including noon who rudely ignored my microphone!)
