Lynx, please...while I respect your virtual pilot abilities, don't ask me to get a grip right now.
If you research my card you will find that I fly rarely fly the La7, have a great disdain for it as a matter of fact. I do like the FW series and have enjoyed the dora pre-AH2, my pre-AH2 fav ride was the 190a5.
My problem is, I have a squaddie who couldn't up a p38. That hampered his fun of the game earlier and I just don't think it's right at all.
I hated the idea of a a time limiter, I don't want to sit in a tower for 5 mins waiting to be able to up. I also don't want a friend not be able to fly his favorite ride.
Some of my squaddies I have flown with for over 9yrs in this game and another (AW). These are guys are people I wold accomodate more than most of the people I have worked with for the past 7 yrs.
I agree, i don't like it when the rooks have the huge numbers. I hate RJO sometimes. I also, however, remeber what it was like when rooks were the inferior numbered country. HT tried to fix that problem by adjusting perks only to realize that didn't quite work.
I really think with the normal ebb and flow of the game the sides would have balanced and that this drastic measure was not needed. Now, it's rediculous because of plane limitations. If I wanted to be limited by what was available to fly I would be in the CT.
