Undoubtedly; I'll see if I can update them
This is nothing more than adjusting to the setting.If it was just long; or just short; fair enough; it's when it's different ranges for frnd or nma it annoys, (ok, ok, annoyed).
We're working on this. I still think that ganging is less than it is in the MA.It's not the quantity; it's the quality. I've always found the CT particularly merciless in this regard. Contrary to the good old days of fighter town; CT guys seem to take _pride_ in ganging and unfair fights. It may be "historical"; but then so is the Axis losing. Is it fun?
And they haven't, in BoB scenarios, for some years now, Seeker.Very prolly true; but I reckon CV's and base grab are the bane of the CT (unless a specific CV recreation is attempted; in which case it's cool)
Which is fine in the MA, where the guy on the other side can grab a Spit and you'll be even. In an Axis v. Allied setup, where range is not a factor, the Axis has no equivalent to the Spit in the ETO (we had a fun match between Spit 9s and Niks one week, though). Your observation on this is shared by many others, so that when there are spits in a setup the vast majority of allied pilots fly spits, and it is unpleasant to fly axis.
The Axis has no equal to the Spit in the ETO? Did I just hear you say that the Axis plane set; which runs up to and including the Ta152 and the Me 109-G10 (not to mention the superlative 262) cannot match either a 1942 SpitV nor a 1943 Spit IX nor a 1944 Spit XIV? What about the Spit I? Will the leather boys risk their hot rods against a Spit I? Really; me thinks the wobbles protesteth too much.....
Obviously Brits should only be limited to Hurris (but only with 303's); because we're so over reachingly Uber!

But to be honest; the _real_ reason I don't fly there is the same as any one else confronted with the log on screen. Do I click on the line with 5 people; or with 450 people? A viscious circle I know.
I know that I _really_ want the CT to succeed; because I'd like to fly the Battle of Britain on-line 24/7; but when ever I've been there; the fun's been not so good.
I salute yours and +Tiff's efforts; and I'll try to remember to pop in a bit more.
