So I get over an enemy base to drop bombs on a hanger. I look down and I see ALL la7's except for 2 planes (an la5 and a 109).

I'm not talking about figuratively there were a lot of la7's. I mean literally.

I expect this going into a rook base, but not a bishop base. Cmon guys.

Learn to accept it. La7s are a great base defense tool.

Is that a whine?

No, it's not an La7 whine. It's a bishop whine.

Sad to see such a fine team degrade to crap like that.

I recommend that, prior to traveling over in a buff to pork a base, you call ahead and give instructions as to which aircraft type you would prefer to be intercepted by. We are afterall, not mind readers. I myself would be more than happy to accomodate your choice.

I'll be the guy in the 109g10 that kills all three of your planes before you get a shot off.

I learned to stop respecting chess pieces representing contrived and essentially random stratifications of people in an online game long ago.

I flew some w/ the bish recently. They've got a bunch of good guys to fly with, just like knights, just like rooks.

Get off your knit perch. The knits are no different from anyone else, lasersailor. I remember several sorties (from March 4th) when the rooks had a CV not far from a knit base. And the knits flew nothing but Spits and LA7s. Fortunately, I kept the film...

Boring knit defence pic #1 - 3xSpit, 4xLA7

Boring knit defence pic #2 - 2xLA7, 6 Spits

... and people wonder why I don't get excited about new planes being added to the planeset. This game will always be a "grab the best plane for the job" game - until maybe AH2/TOD comes out. It will always be P51/LA7/Spit.

As for making this thread a complaint against one particular side, my considered opinion is... bollocks. There is NO difference between the sides. Some sides might have a few more missun leaders - is all. The evidence is shown above.

Lazer! If you're reading this, ~~. You landed 10. And you gave me several useful 6-calls and pulled a couple of nice drags! Nice flying with you that night.~~

LOL! Beetle.. you need to stop being such a *****. You do realize you're whining about what people are launching at a field that's being vulched while you're flying a perk plane don't you?

The same goes for the author of the thread. You don't like what you're seeing down on the deck at an enemy field, don't fly over an enemy field. The fact that defense in AH is always a response to an attack that has already hapened means the defenders are going to look for any advantage possible.

No, they weren't being vulched or anything. I only saw one friendly within tag range. But he was being chased by the other half of the La7's.
