Bishop / Knight pact
« on: December 16, 1999, 05:50:00 PM »
This is getting already old, usually when I login at late times, when theres over 40-50 people online, I see Rooks being kicked into hell by Bishops and Knights (sometimes luckily both, bishops and knights have outnumber against rooks) together, but not a single fight between knights or bishops (well, luckily i've managed to start fight between knight and bishops myself couple times)

This is already getting too old, I've seen 3-country setups, which doesn't seem to work.
Always that third country (whichever it is, will be always that unwanted third party) has usually begun attacking mostly one side and had some kind of pact with the other.

Ok, I am heard now and everyone knows that I don't like that knight/bishop usually attacks rooks together...

Solution: only have two countries.

I've never understood why CK/WB and now AH have always had more than 2 countries.

  Since someone else brought it up   I as well believe 3 is a crowd. Even 4 might be better than 3, but I would cast my vote for 2.

If this has turned into some kind of unofficial vote, I'll cast mine: 2 countries, 1 front.

If there was an official pact, I think the bishcuits threw it out the window this morning.  The nits were down to 2 or 3 fields, with us Rooks holding only one of them when I logged on.

And I'll cast me vote for 2 countries as well.  Dinnae about the axis vs allies, though I have to admit it's an intriguing idea =)

In theory I'm all for Axis vs. Allies, but in the present form that would be baaaad. The Spits, La's, F4U's and 51's (not to mention B17's) would punish the 109's, 190's, C205's and N1K2J's. I think out of the average 80 arena pilots it would split 12 Axis and 68 Allied (and 50 of them mustangs!).

Wardog: I don't think that has something to do with the topic, so if you would quit waving squelch flags all around, thank you.

I think Axis Vs. allies would be great too.  Just my 2 canadian cents worth a half a penny.

Not that I represent or have ever represented anything to do with Canada in any way shape or form. Thank you

Axis vs. Allies would be neat.  AW did it but Im note sure how far they went.  Sounds awesome to me and especially for all history minded folk(I refuse to say BUFF now that I know what it means)

I'm game for a 2 country system.
Axis vs Allieds is the way I prefer it.
As to side inbalance, well it would help if they would model a couple more Axis planes.
(& I don't mean another 109 or 190 varient)
