I must say I admire the way you guys stick with your country.  It's gotta be fairly boring for you each weekend evening, searching for an enemy, finally spotting one, and then having eight of your countrymen nail him first.  I salute your team spirit !

Heh, our encounter happened in the afternoon, prior to the evening Rook Hord Festival.  You handled that 110 very well, and had I loaded a tad less fuel...., but you nailed me fair and square.

I got nothing against any player in AH.  But 5 to 1, and worse odds all along the Rook/Bishop border every weekend evening gets old (and this for well over a year now).  When I start getting stomped by multiple cons each sortie, I get frustrated fast and just log early.

Call it Bish Karma.

How soon we forget.

1 ray of hope: if rooks can turn things around, anyone can.

Organise some BJO's until you kick butt again then you will have all the numbers.

Or complain on BBS.

Choose which ever suits your nature.

Rooks are under Dogfight Embargo.
The 20k chicken tourists.
Im wondering what are these guys paying for ?
After many lost hours of hunting them i now fight only against
knits. When i have not knits, (give me back my knits:) i destroy rook fields but i dont bother to hunt and fight this trash.

We dont forget. We had our hordes but we was not hiding over
20k. We was dying like flyies (not all of us) but we was dying in the field of battle, we was not hiding in earth orbits.

Keep your numbers, but Stay to fight. There is not more discusting thing than a rook with 3-4k more alt runing.
And a big loss of time.
Many Bishes have become Rooks and some good sticks,they know
who they are.
I call them to learn these chicken newbees to fight and die and learn ofcourse.
Im more than 2 years here not even average and dont afraid to fight and die for the pleasure of the battle.
Thats the spirit.  And the pleasure for every one.
It doesnt matter who wins.
Its the fight who counts.

That's a whine if I ever saw one.

PS - As for the "repost", if you can't take critcism, don't dish it out to begin with and stop your rhetorical spewing.

you know its funny today I saw one Rook being chased by 5 Night cons.

Then 10 minutes later at another base I saw the same situation only this time it was a rook being chased by 5 or 6 bish.

YOu know whats even more funny!

When I go Bish and when I go Night I see one Night being chased by 5 or 6 Bish. Or 1 Bish being chased by 5 or 6 Nights and so on and so forth.

Stop whining!

the horde
« Reply #11 on: July 05, 2004, 07:23:02 AM »
Just a question -- I notice most rooks include sunday night as squad night, hence the horde effect. Is this the whole story?
Do Nits and Bish squads generally mark sun pm as squad night too?

In other words, are the country numbers the same but differently distributed?

If so, the obvious answer is for each country to encourage sunday squad nights. Unless done, other countries' members will likely avoid Sun pm and thus worsen problem.

It must be close to a year now that the Rooks mass on a Sunday (night for me).  I'll say what I said then.  Well done who ever organised the initial mass meet.  It takes some doing to get an extra 50 to 70 players on board at the same time.

The first time it happened (rook mass meet) they had us (Bish) outnumbered 2 to 1 but what they actually did was awesome.  They had 20 + b17's with drones (60) hit all bish strat.  It was like proper .  Bish front line feel on the first wave of attacks (AHI).  Panic was the rule in the bish camp.  Only after some of us killed barracks did the bish slow any of it down.  Rooks started to look at Knights then.

So they still meet on a Sunday.  Do we (Bish) kill barracks on a Sunday...err no  lol.  Do we have fun ?  Maybe not but i'd rather be outnumbered than chace 1 con with 5 or 6 countrymen after the same kill.

I dont see what the complaints are all about, I mean you all complain you want realism right well here you go. When I fly fighter sweeps with my squad we fly in formation, look for enemy fighters then move to intercept. Looks like you should find someone to cover your 6 so you dont have to worry about getting hit by people flying well organized flights.
