BAD1051, what are you talking about?
Being the country that is attacked by the two others is the best I could wish for. It sure beats attacking empty fields and searching for a single tank hiding under a tree on an action-less session, while looking with envy at the full red bars between the two other countries that ignore rooks completely.

Go ahead and switch away from rooks - but promise that you will attack us remaining rooks and not the 3rd country!

BOTH of you make valid points! I love being double teamed...only exception is when ENY is like 10 +. HONESTLY, this is only because I cant use MY FAV TOOL..Wirb. Sure, at times it can REALLY SUCK...but it doesnt stay like that for TOO long. Guess it comes down to like Molyb stated...depends on the time of day and some times as to WHO's Squad Night is on. This is one of the reasons I wish "Side Swap Time" was reduced. SURE, there will be some who use it for nefarious reasons..but the PLUS of keeping players(giving better game play with out suffering missing other opportunities squad related) would be a PLUS imo. I dont see it as a "Panzy" move at all. Sometimes it just gets to ya :uhoh Being able to switch sides without the huge penalty should be a plus for retaining players. Why do something that doesnt promote your personal enjoyment? If it turns players off...I am against it :uhoh

I'm too old to begin switching sides willy-nilly  :devil
I'll stay rook EVEN IF I'm the only rook

At this point, its not loyalty but rather habit and I'm just too lazy to
bother with it  :aok

We need a lot more folk, like you Shuff! There is nothing to lose, by switching sides, unless you cant deal with the backlash! When my squad starting rotating, country by the tour...I met lots of folk who play like me! Never had more that about a dozen whines from ANY SIDE after swapping sides and killing previous country buds

Occasional country rotations is a healthy thing.
You get to fly with some of your “sworn enemies” and find that they are not such bad people after all. You get to shoot down your recent counterymen and tease them on ch200, all in good fun. Then you switch back and get to do it all again in reverse  :P

We are the “Aces High Social Club”, chesspiece affiliation is an arbitrary thing. We just like to kill each other when the consequences are nill and the stakes are as low as they can get :D
