Oldman,
By any chance you got a 16 color map with green ground, brown mountains shaped like giant pyramids and blue water? Sounds really familur in a dejavu kinda way.
AvA is great for short distance fights until some BeBop squad drops in and hoards the low number side. Once they get bored and leave, everyone else has with them. Then I catch bits and peices of thier chest thumping later on about how badarse they were in the AvA and the kinds of weak chumps who hang out in there. That's the only draw back to the place these days.
Don't really understand why the AvA is passed over. It's the short distance cozy kind of mano-E-mano combat that all of the uber sticks and lone eagles in the MA whine about being destroyed by the Hoard lemmings. They could easily all go to the AvA and live the dream. Especialy since they all claim it's the man and not the ride that matters while they are making fun of whiners in this forum.
I Do remember back when it was called Combat Theater a few hot sticks would drop in and challenge the 5-10 on the other side to come get them. Much less HOing and lots of (GF!) in the text buffer. Helped that there were a couple of dedicated full time CT squads back then. Seems Oldman was a pretty hot stick back in those days..........gave lots of (GF!) to everyone becasue they upped into those unfreindly hotstick saturated skys.
