Like some else said, the rooks need more coordination. With out that I don't see how their not gonna be backed up to their last fields each map.

Ah yes, the pigs made it what, 2 weeks as rooks? I never said the players have to do anything. Your the one that is pizzing and moaning here and I pointed out an option for you to fix it. As a Rook, I very rarely have an ENY issue, and when on those very rare occasions we do have an ENY hit I just switch to another plane. As for fights, unfortunately we seem to only have hordes dropping down on us repeatedly, but many targets is better than none. You go ahead and enjoy your self flying WITH the horde crying about your ENY hit.

What is the definition of insanity? I'm thinking your a clinical case. Doing the same thing over and over again EXPECTING different results. The time for the side switch isn't going to change, period.

ENY threads only pop up from those players who are on Bish most often, and lately on Knights.  They are happy to have that over whelming force to help them roll the map, but heaven forbid they have to deal with ENY. You cant have one with out the other. Again, you don't want an ENY hit, join the team with the least numbers, lately its been the Rooks. 

I wanted to add, Im not picking on the Pigs here. Im just pointing out an option for some of you to get away from ENY issues and lack of fights. I don't know why you guys went back to Knights after your brief visit. I flew Bishops for years until I finally left the 444th Air Mafia. I flew Knights for a bit, then switch to Rooks and pretty much have been here for years now. I understand the "country loyalty". But if the game isn't fun , maybe a change would help not only you, but others in the game.
 



So what's the real issue The Fugitive. I pay a monthly fee to play this game the way I want and If that means go to the rooks to for a few hours to have some fun so be it, who are you to say other wise? . It is a game So STFU... why you comment at all is beyond me are you jealous of our squad?  We grace you with our presence when we visit. And another thing When you my subscription then you can spout off other wise stuff it up your

The only reason I used the pigs as an example was because Junky .... a pig... was  one of the most vocal about the issues of lack of fights and ENY. I as well as many others were happy to see the Pigs move over and only wished they had stayed longer. It evened up the side a bit and the rooks were getting hammered by the horde again.

I know your lack of intelligence may cause you to have problems following a thread as complicated as this one  :rolleyes: so you might want to crawl back under your rock and let the adults discuss things here. I was trying to help, you are just being an ....ah well you did show us a picture of your face. Welcome to the ignore list.

Is this the only sentence you know how to type? I have said a number of times in this thread that I don't have a problem with ENY, rooks are out number most of the time, nor do I have problems finding fights as we are more often than not under one horde or the other. I was just suggesting solutions  such as, a large squad might want to switch for more than a week or so to another country to avoid ENY and find more fights. As it is, the 56th has moved over to Rooks and it has been fun flying WITH them instead of getting shot down by them   :devil

 I was just suggesting solutions  .


sorry I misunderstood, your solutions are more in the way, fly this way, or that way, sent 2 players this way.  which in other words is you now how everybody should play.

btw we did change to rooks not to long ago for more than a week.  and while it was fun, we did notice that we are a large group and we will change eny to whichever country we switch to when we have squad night.

but the question you seem to ignore is why did the rooks lost players to other countries?  could it be because a specific squad?  maybe that specific squad's way of playing caused that change?

I went rooks the other night. They were low number by far. While I was there a couple of rooks were asking about where to find trains. They said they needed to shoot trains. I told them there were no trains yet in AHIII.

Well they had time to want to shoot trains so as soon as I could I switched back.

AH needs to consider having two sides, There are not enough players anymore to support 3 sides. I'm sure there isn't much fun on Knits/Bish when Rooks only have 3 players on ( as long as they didn't fall asleep in the tower), and they run through bases unopposed. I like a good fight as much as anyone else but really 5 fighters converge on a single set of Lancs without an escort? The days of Titanic Tuesday are long gone fellas. I'm thinking that all rooks leave and go Knit or Bish and then see what happens.

Try a search to see why that will not work.

I joined up with the rooks about 3 months ago. I was enjoying the experience except for one little thing. One of my old squaddies hatched a plan with a buddy rook of his. The buddy rook would relay to my old squaddie member where I  was taking off at. So often on take off there was my old squaddie annihilating me before.
i could get off the ground or into the air. Over and over and over. Just by coincidence I caught to squad members joking and laughing about it on the radio. So I left the rooks and went to the Bishops. Funny  ------- No more runway hawking. Sorry ROCKY!

Really Fugi?  Really??
You just can't help yourself can you. Always sticking the nerdy littleneck of yours outthere for yourview as howthe game is played while always attacking the character of whoever you disagree with hiding behind your "ignore lists"

Dude your apart of the problem and have been for a long time.

There is no solution to this problem outside of bringing in more players its just that simple.

Another clown that either cant read, or has a problem comprehending what they read.

I never say "play my way" I suggest that others try different ways of playing the game. I would think that doing the same NOE run time after time after time would get pretty boring. In this case I thought a large squad like the pigs might want to change their permanent home, thus solving two problems. The ENY issues and lack of fights. I didn't say they HAD to. Also, I only used the Pigs as the example because JunkyII..... a Pig... was the one talking about the issues.

As for the "attack", I know I should have been the bigger man and just ignored the attack syko made on me but oh well, done is done.
