All jokes and banter aside, they have the virtue to let us know when they are coming. And more importantly, if anyone rises to intercept, they dont bail. For me personally, I enjoy the chase and the running battle that lasts for several sectors. Because I suck at everything else, thats the most fun I have on Aces High lately. My 14 year old grandson has started back to school so I have more time in-game. He usually plays on my account because his parents won't put out for internet service. As a Rook, it was his job, and now my job, to at least try to stop the attacks on our capitol, just as the RAF or Luftwaffe did historically regarding attacks on their turf. If we could mount an organized defense it would almost be a mini-scenario every single day/night. Long Live the Game! <Salute> All
