What's really amazing is how high the p47-25 ranked.

So much for the argument that there's really no difference between the chess pieces.  When I flew as a knight, I was always dismayed to see the Rooks approaching 5k ft higher than what I considered a high perch against the Bishops. 
noticed the 5k difference too. was on the Uteris map last night, fight at A1-A19.10k wasn't high enough, so i went 16k in a 109, 16 still wasnt high enough. had a spit 16 2k above my head  :mad:

Let's not forget that the Rook is a stronger piece than the Bishop or Knight in the game of Chess, too. ;)

yeah and just like a bishop, they can also run the other way as far as they want/can.    Knights are the only ones who can make a turn on the same move.    :aok

It seems to me that Rooks have always had the largest concentration of good sim pilots. I had the opportunity to frequently switch sides between 104 - 106 and definitely noticed a difference between the three countries in their ability to communicate, (check6's, who needs help and where ect.) Take bases and organize missions.

I'm not saying the other countries don't have good sim pilots, I'm just saying there seems to be more on the rook side.

Like most countries, Rooks seem to go through phases of not being and being organized when it comes to controlling the map. The last few tours, from my prospective anyway, has been more about furballing. Time zones and time of year have a lot to do with these fluctuations as well. (east, west and over seas)

Bish seem to have the most organized attacks and do communicate well. Knits mostly seem scattered and confused most of the time with a short attn. span. Communication seems to have never been their strong suit. They hold their own of course and have some great squads but I think they may suffer from a lack of country structure.

Normally it seems that the country with the most rounded players and squads for the month do best. What I mean by this is if you have 10 squads that like to take bases and 10 squads that like to furball and 10 squads that take charge and do it all (GV, bomb, Defend, Take bases, organize missions, do fighter sweeps, vocal on country channel and able to command) Its better than having lopsided #'s like lets say, more furballers than anything else  :frown:

 I respect the majority of this community and their squads. I'm not picking on anyone or any squad. I was just making an observation and sharing my opinion.

:angel: :salute




you hit it right on the head, I couldn't have said it better my self  :salute

I'm a Knight and that does sound like the Knights.  Of course the tradeoff is that Knights (and Bish) do not have to listen to Tripl5 on range...

Rooks are usually my bioches in chess. They can set up some pretty good moves.  :aok

From the graph, it looks like all the La7 flyers went to the P51.

I have a hard time to deduct that from the graphs provided in this thread so far ;)

But your post made me take another look at it:



When La-7 usage went down, not only P-51D gained but also Spit 16 and N1K, and the Spitfire gained even more than the P-51D. Surprisingly, it seems that the P-51 may have gained most from N1K losses after version 2.13 (Tour 106)
