Path of least resistance.

Like electricity?  Or human nature?

Same reason I drink beer instead of pouring it up my nose.  Too much resistance that way (besides, I have to stand on my head to do it)

Usually people go to where the fight is and in some occasions it leads into 2 countries vs 1.

I personally prefer going where there are most enemies available, but if the other 2 coutries mainly fight between themselves, I go after the stronger country.

I see now other benefit in banging the smaller country than if there is an attempt to reset the map. Just milking an underdog for the sake of milking gives nothing to me.


ps. B4Buster, thanks for the recent lesson. I remember not to underestimate those twin tailed ones again for a while  :noid

Flawed game design.

Why?

Because anytime you have 2 going into 1 its a bull crap situation.(No, its not? ask the nazi's.)
Hence why we need another front 2 vs 2, but that would not work because then it would just be 3 into 1.


Dang, no real way around it.

I would say that 90% of the time, I never notice what country I am fighting.  I fly into the furball and shoot at the red things.

It's only when I notice the red things shooting at each other that I realize that there is more than one chess piece enemy in the CZ.

Make it 2 sided, with auto-balancing. If you have to send a whole squad, then so be it.

That is the only way to stop the 2v1 rants. Only have 2 chess pieces.

I don't think 2 sides is the anwser and this wasn't put up as a rant.  AvA is a 2 sided arena and it's dead most of the time. 

If there is this "winz th3 war" mentality then by ganging one side has left you open to attack.  Lets say sides a and b are ganging c.  Side a is the low number team and should IMO keep up the attacks so maybe side b won't attack them.  Side b once again IMO should notice the number imbalance and run a few side a bases.  It's a matter of stratagy the way I see it.   

Thanks for the most part keeping this civil :salute

It would be even better if the teams were renamed as Team Jumbo Ta-Tas and Team Junk in the Trunk.

We may settle the age-old debate right here in AH2!  :)
