Gofaster,

It's not really a problem, they can only do it once a day.

>>Gofaster,

The annoying thing is WHEN they do it. Hehe, if the jump is timed just right, you can get 25 free perkies if you hang around long enough; just move on over to the side that is winning ;(

WRONG ... you can change countries every 6 hours, but I believe that you still have to remain in a country for 12 hours to get the perks.

Even if HT did change it from 12 to 6, you still can't jump to a side just before a reset and collect the "Win the War" perks.

Interseting thing happened last night. I was in a 38 again and along comes this higher P-51D. The P-51 driver dives on me, I evade his first guns pass and watch for his zoom climb......which doesnt materialize and.....I CANT FIND HIM!!! ACK! I roll my 38 to the right a bit to check my low 6. Lo and behold there he was!! :rofl I turn into him, nose low, he follows, as we cross I reverse my turn to follow him, after about 3 nose low turns I am roughly 15 seconds from a kill shot, the P-51 driver wisely disengages and dives away.

This 51 driver (unlike the one I spoke of earlier) actually showed some aggressiveness and brain power. He knew exactly when to disengage and how, instead of making a single high speed pass and then running out of icon range, this guy actually tryed to fight, and he lived to tell about it. I didnt follow him home to vulch him landing like I did the other guy. I let him go because he tryed to fight, and he also flew smart. Sure, he took a huge gamble in trying to turn with me, but he was trying to do the unexpected and grab a quick kill. Nothing at all wrong with that :)

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Wish my flight was like that last night.  I run into Fuse flying a Spitfire Mk IX with about 3,000ft advantage over me and he dives down for the merge and keeps on diving to the deck for the protection of a horde of his fellow Bish.  He then starts up on the radio telling me to come down off my perch and engage him.  Timid.
