Every country is provided the same resources and the same rules.  The game offers no advantage to one vs. the other (except for that uber AI ack of the Knights, lol).  We each choose our objectives, and our strategies and tactics to meet those objectives.  If you don't like how your opponent beats you, when everything he has available is also available to you, what message are you sending when you choose to complain that his behavior is somehow unfair. 
Defense has the advantage of fighting close to home. This acts as a force multiplier.

Offense has the initiative. They get to decide place, altitude and weapons mix.

Even with the same resources and rules, there are some differences between offense and defense. Doesn't justify the whining. And, I agree with you that it is rare that a counter-horde ups to make a good balanced fight, especially considering the amount of whining about all this on the forums.


But please don't think I'm not insulting the intellect . . . 

. . . If you claim it can't be done, you're just plain ignorant. 

. . . all I can figure is maybe it is your inferior intellect that allows them victory over you. 

. . . you can't be nearly as dimwitted as your incessant whining makes you look to all those that you cry to.
I think you are insulting people intelligence.  :lol

1) Take it from an ex "oreo". I know the tactics. Fun was often purpously causing greif and not to have fun from a game perspective which is why I left.

2) Only sort of "skill" you have is the ability to herd cattle to a certain portion of the map. More often than not, you are counting on that the odds are always in your favor. Its enough to have the overwhelming #s advantage, but ontop of this is the toolshedding factor.

3) Noone really cares. Its more laughing AT you than anything else. No megasquad lives a long reign. BOPs, LCA, Rolling thunder, Claim jumpers,  all come to terms that its about quaility and not quantity. Given enough time, your roster will shrink to almost nothing from guys getting bored and moving on to other aspects of the game or quit all together. Players that have been here years and years have done so because they have adapted to their game. IF anything, your gameplay is much more detremental to the new guy that logs in and doesnt know any better and gets swarmed by an army of bees and quits out of frustration.

Take a second to think about if what you were doing were to greif you if it were done to you. If the answer is yes, then why participate and contribute towards any negativity in this game?
In a way Im almost positive the Vguys enjoy the reputation they have and in that case..they earned it. Tons of folks are respected within the community even when they are the red guys. If the Vs wanted any sort of respect they would at least take steps to pull the squad reputation out of the gutter instead of dragging it deeper and deeper trying to justify what they are doing is right.

Its your 15$. Play as you want because its only you making the choices. Base your game on lameness and girly play and of course you are going to recieve backlash. You certainly wont be admired or even praised.

"Noone really cares"??? have you been reading the forums.  There are whole lot of people that care, many fervently, and more yet foolishly. (obviously you have poor reading comprehension skills)

"Our gameplay is much more detremental to the new guy"??? And yet reading your posts, one discovers that many of you and your "supporters" admit to both participating in the same behavior as newbs that you now denounce, and enjoying it until you later evolved into the beacons of the community you are now (now we've established that you're a hypocrite)

"Take a second to think about if what you were doing were to greif you if it were done to you. If the answer is yes, then why participate and contribute towards any negativity in this game?"  This one take the cake for obvious stupid statements.  Shall I quit shooting those red guys down too? It might grief them.  

As for admiration and praise, you may someday learn that you reap what you sow. The whining, insults, and venom that you spew towards countless members of this community has earned you a very poor reputation.  I'm quite comfortable with my reputation.  If I disagree with you, I will disagree respectfully.  If you respond with gibberish and insults, I will highlight your foolishness and immaturity.

(now off to Wal-Mart, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna need more highlighters)

If people would put in as much effort to defend their bases from the vGuy's attacks as they put in whining about the vGuys in the forums, the vGuys wouldn't be able to take any bases.

I sure am proud of the community for not letting this (and most other) threads go perma-hijack and deteriorate into a testosterone fired urination match.  Well done!    :rolleyes:

I've always been firm believer that each player pays (or is helped) for the game so if hordes, pickers, GV, ect., want to play how they play, then we are we to critize them for it? Yeah, the whole horde base taking thing is little old but I personally enjoy trying to stop them. However, it is sometimes rather frustrating to call out on country "alert #" and maybe few guys come to help. Among the knights who usually aren't furballing with the rooks, if someone says "vtards, JJs at #" they usually come straight way, sometimes they don't.

Either way, bring on the hordes!  :aok

I truly do not care how any one plays the game, if the war aspect is your thing more power to ya, if ya like bombers cool beans, GV's AWESOME...personally I love the fighters, you can look through my stats I ONLY fly fighters in "Fighter mode" I don't fly a few sorties as a "fighter" and then switch to "attack" EVERY sortie I fly is as a fighter.   
 one of the reasons I love this game is the COMBAT, its great to fight against other Combatants, real live people.... so I expect "COMBAT"  whether its 1vs1 or me against the hourd, or being shot at by a GV as im flying to the fight...COMBAT.....

when I fly to four nme cons, I certainly expect combat, but when they run away from me by MYSELF....something is wrong. period......I mean cmon I know I'm a bad-ass and all(sarcasm for those who didn't see it)  but damn four of ya should be able to kill me :rolleyes:

seriously if the war is what you enjoy why run from one guy?  he is the nme in a "war" are you not supposed to kill the nme?   because I had 1500 ALT advantage... :rolleyes:
sad part was I had to go to 18 K to get above the nme  :rofl

they have numbers, ALT(its not like they were on the deck low and slow) and Planes yet still ran, I was in a KI84 they were in 190's and 51's gee what does better up there?   and they still ran away, most sad and pathetic day yet in AH
