Rook tendencies for anti-logic
« on: September 17, 2006, 02:44:16 AM »
So we have this game with 3 countries at war, why is it Rooks insist on dividing the knits & bish? more often than I care to count I have logged on & seen that the rooks have taken most if not all fields between the bish & knits. What could possibley be gained from this strategy?

A few rooks tried to take an outside the middle base, and we came very close to doing so, but the knits were able to switch to defense as they had available resources due to the fact they were only fighting 1 front. They had only 1 front because rooks had separated them from the bish. Meanwhile the bish & the knits BOTH held bases on the outside edges that were originally Rook bases.

This scenario happens often & I just can't comprehend why.... whats the logic?:O

Naw, I got a better one for you.

Rooks have like.. 4.5/9 of the bases, Knights have 3/9, and the Bish have like none. They have one zone base left though. What do the knights do? THEY ATTACK THE FRIGGIN ROOKS!!! We had a CV moving in, we troops AT the zone base, we just needed a few more people, but NO! The retards wanted to hit the ROOKS!!! WTF?!? Plus, nowadays, no one cares about friendly carriers, so why have them?!? Knights need to learn some tactics...

Shifty is right ... splitting fronts has been a strategic death knoll since the dawn of Aces High ... nothing new there that can be directly related to the recent changes.

Whatever team splits the fronts by base capture ... is to blame.

The splitting the map is lame I agree but I say that with the lower numbers in each arena now it will limit any strategy. I am not into landgrabbing so it won't effect me but to say that it isn't changed with the new arenas is laughable.

this is a common way of doing things on all the countries i think. has been going on more and more from the time i logged in the first time to aces high . nothing new here but with the changes to the arena and the lower numbers it brings it more and more to the front of the class

You don't get it ... its the players (whatever country ... whatever arena) that choose to take the bases that splits the fronts. They still, and always will, have a choice NOT to get stupid and take bases that will split the front.

The new arenas DO NOT force them to take bases that split the fighting fronts ...   get it ?

Then blame it on player stupidity and greed to W1N TH3 W@Rz!!!! for the almighty 25 perk reward ... not the arena ... nor the amount of people in the arena.

It's the people.
