If by "sort of logical" you mean I have the ability to distinguish a question from a compliant, then call it what you will.

You don't seem to posess any logic regarding the matter. If you do- you have been unable to present any, just derogatory comments with no fact or foundation.

Well there's been a lot of armchair philosophy & hot air about "strategy" and "winning the war" when the answer is simple & obvious.

Rooks are twice as talented and skilled as Bishops & Knights and therefore in order to bring a little competition into the game must fight on two fronts against twice the number of opponents.

Just wondering what the logic could be, behind dividing the other 2 countries so they cannot fight each other. Thats it.



There is no foundation or reasonable explanation for that type of logic.

It's the people.


Answer me this...

Why is there an entire section in the help files for AHII that outlines the capturing of territory?  

Why is this a part of the game?  

Why does the help file not outline when it is/is not acceptable to capture certain bases?

Where's the section in the help file about furballing?

Atool,

Since you “have the ability to distinguish a question from a compliant”, and your “reading comprehension is great”, and being “the logical sort” maybe you can figure out if the following is a question, a complaint, an insult, or a joke:

1) Because it needs to be explained for those who need to achieve that goal. All games have directions.

2) Because HT made it that way. I have heard that it was introduced to create confict which in turn would result in much Air-to-Air combat and those who fought the best ... got to take the base ... outside of that ... you need to get the reason as to "why" from HT.

3) There is no need to explain when it is/is not acceptable to capture certain bases ... HTC explained the goal, its up to the players to figure how best to achieve the goal ... much like Atoon has ... he has figured out that its not good to split the fronts ... looks like the majority of the others haven't ... live and learn.

4) What does furballing have to do with this post ? ... or are you trying to create a hi-jack of what this thread is all about ? Furballing (Air-to-Air Combat) needs no explaination.

Yep, bad decision. Same bad decision happens all the time. It's nothing new. People will jump from the base they just acquired to the next closest base that happens to lead them up the middle rather than all agreeing to go after some far off base.....that none will agree on which one that should be.

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


Well, if you could understand that, you would also be a General.  Just follow my orders and dont ask any questions.

I'll just take the high road here, and not make fun of your handle even though several good ones come to mind. I'll also let you think of your text how ever you see fit, it's way more important to you than it ever will be to me.

Have a nice day & thanks for your participation:aok


As for the few possible reasons for this situation, I like whisky58s the best  :rofl
