Oh, it gets better.  I told them to "change their manbaby diapers" and they mass .rtp'd so I have another chat ban - I guess they felt offended, lol.  Hilarious.   :rofl

Well I doubt anyone's practically interested but it's effectively ended Aces High for me since I can only fly in the time of day when this is prevalent. There's no DA to go to anymore or any other remotely-populated arena for that matter. Once you've got your ELO over 1600 against the drones the challenge of that is gone and it's vacuous gunnery practice.

I'l never understand the decision to get rid of the furball lake while the 'Steal the Sheep' arena is right there on the arena page. I played this game for 1.5-decades and I'm still clueless about this sheep motif. Bloody weird decisions.

So far Rooks have been avoiding attracting Bish attention, but that seems to be changing as Bish start to go all-in vs them.

Eny has zero impact - plenty of good stuff still available with a 29 eny - which is where it's capped, iirc.

LoL.  That one knit in the air is a hero.  :rofl  He should tell his buddies to get off the tower-chan200-chatroom and get in the air.  They are probably in GV tho.

What they should do to stick it to the Bish is everyone switch over to Bish.  Lets see how they enjoy the game with no one on the other side.  Then laugh at them on country channel. 

"How you like it now?  Having fun with no enemies?  Is it unbalanced enough for you now?"  :t

They wouldn't like it with NO enemies.  They just want a few enemies they totally overwhelm and beat down without resistance.

Toxic, psychotic, self-aggrandizing drama queens simply aren't worth me spending my time on.

Maybe adjust the ENY of troop carriers to (literally) slow down the horde.   :D

M-3  48mph;  SdKfz 251  33mph;  LVT(A)2  24mph.

All are currently ENY = 40.

If M-3 ENY = 16;  SdKfz 251 ENY = 22;  LVT(A)2  ENY = 26.

population    ENY     troop carrier

16  9  6       15.8     all available
16  7  6       16.2     251 and LVT available
19  7  6       22.4     LVT available
24  9  6       29.0     fly a goon    :D

Sounds like an easy solution.  How mad would the AM bish herd get?

Mornings are almost unplayable, at least they provide targets.  When/if they left, there would literally be nothing left.

There's the catch.  The horde clearly enjoys their game as it is.  Any modification forced on them risks killing what is left of the morning game.   At least they are having fun.  :rolleyes:

Seems to be... something that eny will no longer be able to address.  Actuallly eny works fine, it's players that are making it... irrelevant.

An issue I’ve seen is acouple dweebs upping Tempests or 262s before ENT kicks in and just rearming for hours. I typically don’t have a problem hunting down perked planes but when it’s 1v10 and they constantly run to ack and buddies it becomes exhausting.

Do you really think anything will be done about it no matter how many times you point it out?

You've admitted to me yourself that nothing will be done.

But yeah, two sides might lead to number imbalance.   :rofl

So the locusts consumed the map for a "win."  And here we are after reset as the locusts go all-in vs that one rook hero.  Not sure what the Knits could be doing meanwhile.

Glad there will be a new map tonight.
Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!
