A couple of thoughts
« on: March 10, 2000, 09:38:00 AM »

I just wanted to throw a couple of things out to chew on a bit.  

1. There has been a lot of talk of the 3 country arena since it started.  HT has stated on many occasions that this is the way it is going to stay period so yelling about it isn't going to do any good.  It is up to the community to make the best of the situation.  Keep your eyes on the dar and roster.  Attack the country grabbin the most land when possible.  Talk teammates into laying off a low # country that is already taking a pounding and attack the aggressor.
 During the hours that there aren't that many ppl online bish and rook please don't fight clear up north.  Grab a Knight field and take the fight down where they can play too.  Many times we have had to fly 30 mins to find a plane to fight to lose instantly ( I ain't that good<G> ) or shred wings and have to start all over again.
Overall the 3 country arena isn't that bad and we can make the most of it if we try.

2. A small strat note.
  If the enemy grab a couple of fields in your land try this to slow em down.  Target the stuff on the field that allows them to grab more easily and quickly.  AMMO and BARRACKS. No ammo they can't bomb and no barracks they can't land drunks.  It is only a temp. fix but very effective for a short time till you can hopefully rally help enought to retake the fields.  People have gotten into taking fields so much they sometimes forget that there are other targets besides the ack since we normally don't want to take ammo and drunks away from the field prior to capture  

S!

How about if we try to get everybody to fly for 1 of 2, say Knights and Bishops or some other combination.  If nobody flew for the 3rd side, it would, by player action, be a 2 side game.

You're right Karnak...
I think last weekend was a Knooks vs. Bish war. When I watched roster there were about 16-18 bishes against 40-45 Knooks  
(can send scr.shots if u like..)
At first that was quite fun and challenging but when it lasts 4-5 hours it really took fun out of the game...
(huh... I even think to change to Knits and start my own attack against Rooks from there... It looked so Quiet border line over there   )
This thing depends of ourselves and the way how would we like to play this game. I guess there is no my way but the Our way ? (Which is ?)
This is only a game and it should be fun. If you take that "Fun" out of the game there are no more reasons to pay or is there ?
I Hope this didn't sound whining... Just a couple thoughts...

 Well...comming from DOA which for the longest time had 3 countries, all I can say is good luck getting anyone to agree with that.  Been tried, didnt work.
