For the "I am loyal to my chesspiece and refuse to switch sides" types, I have the perfect fix.

Surprised nobody brought this up.

IF you are in an LW arena with a huge numerical advantage, then I bet that in the OTHER LW arena you are in the dog house.

Knit's (or Bish, or Rook) have 50 (insert huge imbalance # here) more players in LW Blue?  I bet they are down by 50 players in LW Orange.  (or vs. versa)

Change arenas.  You still get to be a knit (or bish or rook), and you no longer have ENY to worry about.

Problem solved.

Lute, You're right :cool:

If it gets real bad, like to the point where I figure I am just gifting points to the attackers and not really accomplishing anything I usually will just look for somewhere else to go. :cool:

Yeah, so we can get in any plane we want, but we can't fly past the runway's end! Sounds like great fun!

I'll switch arenas, then switch SIDES, if need be, to fly my plane (P47N)-- utterly vexes me that it is assigned an eny of FIVE---is it THAT well-used/effective in the arenas? Anyhow, I've switched sides a few times in last couple weeks when Rooks had   eny situation in both LW's....had a nice time. There are lotsa good folks, whom otherwise you would never see the good side of, on the other teams

ENY value seems to be more voodoo than science. Still don't understand why the P-51D is 8 while the Ta-152H and P-47N are 5, etc. Or how the Fw.190D9 is 15! etc.

10-20 players entering an arena would have a dramatic affect on the war.  

You get 10-20 players to change arenas and that vulching will go away quick.

You bring 20-50 and you'll see the war suddenly shift.

When sides are even, you have the best fights.

You missed it.  It was one of the three options I outlined at the end of my post.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Gotta agree here.  The 47N should NOT be on the same ENY level as an LA-7 or Spixteen, and the 190D-9 should be a little closer to the 51D.

If I were assigning values, I would put both the Dora and the 47N at 10 or 12...but...that's just my .02....

(now here comes the "I don't like the other map" whines")


what about when theres only 1 arena worth playing in? (6am-6pm UK time)

yesterday morning, knits was at the bottom of SFMA, getting ganged by bish and rooks yet had a ENY of 15.

thats the only thing ENY doesnt take into account.

Yes..I dont like small maps

I have played those FOR YEARS..

Seems liek the majority of you posting saying its no problem.."I have thousands of perks"..must not have jobs..or no friends..or no women in your life

I have VERY limited tiem to play AH...I log on..want to figth in the planes I ENJOY


The ENY does nothing but F with my fun


You guys are worried about which country wins?..LMFAO..Who here plays long enuff to see countries win?...I have but it is ver VERY rare

This is a 24 hour game...

The Sunsets Sunrise for 10 hours and the ENY ..is the worst thing in this game


I guess since Im not interested in The Virtual Land Grab BS...I have a different value in the game play..

I like to shoot people
