The ma has gotten so bad lately that...  Oh well... I think the only way most people in the ma want to fight is if they can get planes landing or taking off or.... in that first visor down jousting head on charge.

The ma has proven that teamwork and organization lead to boredom.

The ma has proven that if you have a game with a really low price per month you get a whole bunch of guys that you would be better off not having to play.

All are very good reasons that Ah2 needs a Fighter town of sorts. Think of it as an AVA with a full fighter planeset. No base capture possible...and no vulching possible. just massive fun fights

Exactly, couldn’t of said it better myself.  Makes you a better player. Cool thing is if you get tired of being disadvantaged you can switch any time. You can work together to overcome disadvantages. You can up the better plane and engage multiple planes or attack at a disadvantage.  Last night was pretty much a big furball, was great fun, other times the game play is quite dynamic.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen the LA7 in the AvA.  What a beast.  You can get really aggressive, down and dirty, with that thing. Be fun to go in the MA, up a 7, play the dweeb to lure some spitniks away from the crowd then turn all Cujo on ’em.

kong...  I guess that is where we differ... I don't play AH to become a better player.... I become a better player because I enjoy playing... It is a subtle difference I know but to me.... an important one.  

I first of all want to have a fun and fair fight... If I die... fine..  It is my fault and I will just keep plugging away at it.  

I think that a lot are like me...  we don't want to start out with a big disadvange or.... equaly...  we don't enjoy a big advantage.. this would seem to no be true tho based on the MA style of play but... when there is a close fight you see fair fights and fun ones.

mugs... I have no idea what you are talking about.  I seen no furballs last night in the ma... I seen one horde of one side or the other doing endless circles above a field in the hope that someone would take off and give them that all important skilless and risk free kill in their late war B&Z metrosexual plane.

In the MA probly 90% of all kills are on planes just taking off or just landing or by a plane being chased down by more than 4 to 1 odds or... the visor down, HO joust.   A real furball happens only at the very few close fields or when a CV is involved.    The ava is way different... most fights involve getting on a planes six who is aware you are there and either killing or being killed... rarely do people HO or shoot runway ducks.

There were at least 10 fights I had in an hour or so that rivaled an entire MA tours worth of the best fights.

When people tell me that the MA is chock full-0-furballs all the time I have to wonder if they even know what a furball is.
