Give it a try Bald, you never know, you may enjoy it more - The Few switch every so often (currently Bish) and every country has welcomed us with open arms, and the fun continues.

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.

Switch to whatever side has the fewest players. That's what I do when I go to the MA's.

When I flew nit, I used to hate fighting rooks but loved fighting bish.  Rooks like to come in at 20k in their P-51s and generally fly more intelligently than the bish.  Now that I'm flying rook, I don't notice much of a difference whether I'm fighting nits or bish.  I'm yet to find a country where the average pilot gives as many check 6's as I do.

Anyway, go ahead and switch.  After two weeks you won't miss your sheep that much.

I've fought on all three sides and I think nits are the dweebiest, just my opinion though. Bald, I suggest switching, may spice up the game a bit for ya at the same time.

I was a "loyal" knight from the time I started several years ago until last spring/summer when my squad at the time started doing tours.  Myself and a couple of other friends from my old squad split off 2 weeks ago and are now rook.  I have never had so much fun.  I have only strapped bombs on a fighter a handful of times and have been furballing my heart out.  No more NOE missions, no more orders, no more people on channel I have never heard of before. Just 5 good friends raising heck.  And another good point is so far I have yet to hear any "little generals" barking orders.  We flew bish the other night to fly with some friends and almost immediately was bombarded with little generals (not saying this is normal for bish).  Each side has its ups and downs.  But if you decide to go rooks then I won't have to worry about you shooting me down.  :noid :aok

The thing about the guy who wants to fly at 20K, is that he can never, ever, kill the guy who wants to fly a 5K without coming down to 5K himself. This coming down will take a minute or so, giving ample warning, unless the high bandit turns himself into a lawndart.

Here's how it really is: The guy flying at 5K does not hate the guy at 20K. What people really hate is running into 9K bandits when they are at 5K, or 12K bandits when they are 8K, or 16K bandits when they are 12K, ....you get my drift here.
