funny but misleading.  it seems to imply that the reason vtards wont fight is because they go take the base.  I am pretty sure they can still take the base if 5 out of their 40 man mission fight the airplanes passing by as they go hunt for the goons.  I have flown right thru them several times unmolested as I go kill the goons or turn around and start killing plane after plane until i run out of ammo because they wont even move to defend themselves.

The point is that a lot of newer players will immediately forget about their primary objective when they see something low to engage.  The base taking mission immediately turns into a fighter sweep because too many guys got light to fight bombers that just took off and there aren't enough guys still heavy to close the field or flag the town.

I also get a kick out of the players who can tell which squad each of the individual red plane icons belong to.  I saw a red icon yesterday that I thought for sure was a member of the Few so I turned into it and started firing.  Because I'm a sportsman and enjoy honing my skills @ aerial combat I started firing while he was coming at me head on at a range of about 3k.  He must have cheated because he did way more damage to me than I did to him even though I flew straight through his plane and I ended up getting killed.  To top it all off it wasn't even a member of the few, it was some idiot noob named after a zip code.  I'm sure he must have been cheating.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.
