Yeah, I couldn't believe us Rooks actually had a leg up on the FesterMA map.  Usually when I log on its either a stalemate or the Rooks are in the hole.  Of course, the downside to being on the winning team is that all of the Rooks are capping the same handful of bases, which makes any sort of dogfighting a bit troublesome since so many are fighting so few.

And no, it wasn't a joint operation.

1st time I ever saw a map reset by popular choice and consensus. :D

Maybe in the past, but lately the numbers have been a lot closer. I guess because of the RJOs lately, the Bish and Nit's whines have gotten louder.

Not during the day they dont, normally it's Bishop's with the numbers during the day ;)

Numbers are never that high during the day, as you approach prime time yes, I don't recall exact numbers from the dayshift, but I do know they weren't close to that :)

Oh Boo Frikken Hoo  

If you remember correctly until about 4 months ago maybe 6 rooks have been on the low numbers for the last 2 1/2 years i've been playing.

I do believe Bish were the dominating force for most of that time.

Now the poor bishy wishy dont like being in the ****.  :lol

Actually maybe it hasnt even been that long, noticed a big number swing when I got back

Just got back from a 2 month game vacation.

I do agree I liked being in the hole as well Lots and Lots of targets, not that I could shoot many of them down.

First 1 1/2 years Knights were the largest country and strongest, Rooks and Bishops were roughly equal.  However over the past 2 years Bishops have got the better hand, on the whole.

However last night was quite amazing.  Down to 2 airfields and a CV we managed to take a nit field inbetween vulches! :)
