Yep, tonight was ridiculous.
Last time I checked the roster it showed 57 Bish, 26 Knights, and 28 Rooks.
I upped to try and help with the Bish horde that was rolling bases, and logged after two sorties. That's because I counted 15 fighters and who knows how many GV's attacking the base I was trying to help defend. Lazer and toddbobe and others tried to up and defend, but with a swarm like that, why even bother?
Sure, perk planes are cheaper for the low numbered side(s), but quantity takes on a quality of it's own, and aside from high speed slashing attacks on the fighters, there wasn't much that can be done.
Take out their ords........great idea, however HT recently upped the ord required to do that. Easy thing to do when you have 15 or more fighters and bombers hitting a base. Trying it solo, knowing you're gonna be outnumbered while you make your run.......why bother?
I wish the perk multiplier and ENY would also affect the hardness of structures, make the horde have to work harder to take stuff down, make it easier for the low numbered country or countries to take down ords or VH or troops to slow things down.
I know some players think it's really a war.....just a game, folks. My hat is off to the Bish tonight........man, when they horde, they HORDE!
Sometimes I wonder if those who just have to fly in a horde would be the same people who'd cheer on the winning team if they put a huge number of players on the field while the losing team had barely enough to take the field or court.................myself, I like the challenge and competition......seems they want to take their bases and "win the war" no matter what it takes or how they do it. But...........to me it's still a game and not a real war, so we clearly don't think alike.
Thinking maybe it's time for me to step away for a while. Between the hording and invisible GV's shooting me down because they see me while I can't see them............just not a lot of fun lately.
