Not sure what behavior you are referring to. If you are talking about mine and Wagger's Ch200 animosity it was friendly Banter (we have known each other for close to a year now). For those that don't know that fact it may have seem like we were in a pissing match with each other. If you are referring to the vulching, I don't generally vulch unless we are actually trying to take a base. I could care less about taking bases in the MA, I am not usually the "win the war" type. However, in the AvA last night as a squad we were trying to take bases, and had troops inbound everytime you guys tried to reup...so we vulched...(isn't that the point in the AvA to take bases force a win?). We eventually took 3 bases. Bases are 5miles apart it would have been easy for you to take off from a nearby base and still protect the ones we captured.

If we would have sat over a base and vulched for the sake of vulching...that is what I would consider "bad behavior...," however we didn't. I even made that clear in Ch200...

In this set-up, base taking is emphasized.

Everyone hates to be vulched but if someone is trying to take a base, they are going to do that to get their troops in.

Several times I managed to shoot a few troops in the air and on the ground to prevent/delay a capture.

Of course they are going to try to stop that.

It's just a catch 22, in a winnable scenario, folks are going to do what it takes to win.

I thought it was fun.

Yes...     I don't complain if I get shot down from a vulched field.   


Rule #1,  never up from a forward or vulched base.   Always come in from the rear.
If you don't observe rule #1,   don't complain.   War =  suppression.   


Excellent job guys  capturing 3 bases.
To fly or not to fly, that is the question
