i agree!

we could make a sub game for rooks, where all bases start at 10,000ft asl. then they could fly as high as they like.

bish and nits also get high, but fly low while doing it :D

Has some good fun last night.

Landed some 10+ kill sorties. Even flew the Chog for the first time ever since AH2 came about.

Never got above 10k. Just capped inbetween a few bases and played around.

And oh yeah I was rookie last night. :)

Tomorrow I may just be Bish for a day. Who knows. :)

Its not the country, dudes... Its the numbskulls who are flying.

Oh, here's the symbol of the Finnish Defence Forces:

Hopefully you'll notice the rook symbol in the background. So no, you can't ban all the rooks, at least leave us Finns alone. ;)

how bout divide it up between more historical sides. ohh wait! the germans have more planes in this game:rolleyes:

wish it could have been more axis, allied sided.

if you wanted to fly nothing but la7's then you'd log in on the russians side, german, jap, italian, would be axis and last but not least british, and american (allied).  but sucky thing with the allied would be the low perky's on thier best planes.

could use more allied tank's also.

The only way a 2 sided map can currently be designed is to take the third country and move it way off in a corner of the map and disable all it's planes and vehicles (like in the CT and event map designs). It's hard coded into the server, I believe. Trying to run such in the MA will undoubtedly result in a clueless dolt bombing the third unused side, resulting in a map rotation ... which would pork the works and be an endless nightmare for everyone - player and HT support alike.

However .... I completely endorse HT considering changing the game's parameters on his end to ...

ADD an additional (or a few additional) side(s).

And no ..... the map DOESN'T require that every side share an equal boundry with all other sides. That's where .... diplomacy ... comes in (heh). Yes .... form treaties, men.

Still - here's a potentially even 4-sided set-up:

So what country should be died.

Bishops?
Rooks?
Knights?

Personally I'd like to see 4 countries battle.
Please add Queen.

Please change Bishops to their true country queens, and add kings.

HiTech has made his position on a 2 or 4 country system known several times.  It'll never happen.

would be kind of interesting though.

2 teams would only make sense if they had it axis and allied with respective planes only, like TOD and CT are.
