Yup, this is whats it's normally like.

Although oddly enough, tonight for a couple of hours bish has the player advantage.

Not to worry, went straight back to mandoble's ss.
Got lots of ss like this, just biding my name to to past them all together and stick it up somewhere.

While it is nice to always have a target rich environment when I log on, it does get old to always lose the war.

I understand we Rooks won the last reset though.  I just haven't been timing my appearances in the MA very well I guess.

It would be nice for the perk rewards to be related to the percentage of people in each country.  Give a bit of motivation for people to join the side that is low on numbers by having the side with fewer people get more perk points per kill,

This seems to be a regular AH feature.It reminds me of AW3 days when I would only fly A'z to try to counter the B'z C'z horde with DDZ squad.we wre always outnumbered....Was thinking of asking my CO if switching squad to rooks would be cool but I chickened out...Lol..Gonna have to make a squad post now..:):eek:

FWIW, with 4 colors in WB this didn't happen nearly as much.  Certainly not the the huge disparity that is regularly seen in AH.

Can't really put forth any suppositions as to why tho.

i never have understood this about sims like this...why 3 teams?  why not only 2?  makes more sense to me.  that's one of the major things i like about the ct...2 teams.  but, that's just me i suppose.

Gotta disagree with Doberman.  I saw chronic imbalance in WB as far as numbers go.  It was very common for the 2 "big" countries to beat up the 2 small ones and ignore each other.

We wait you Tac.  8 P-38 less for shotdown :). The real aces(Mitsu, Mandoble, Cuckoo, Orka, HISP, Luchini...and many more) play  with the rooks.

Dont let the fact the "The Tuckster"'s sig has gone from a horrid pastey head on a Spit, to a box with a red "X".

He sounds just the same.

Tuck, two  bigtoeries could lead to a 300 vs 100 situation.
IMO, possible solutions are:

1 - Free perk rides for outnumbered countrie. Perhaps this is not an option due most of the people aren't interested into our current perk-planeset.

2 - Give twice the points per kill to the players of the outnumbered countrie, or half the points to the overpopulated ones. This option, IMO, is better than previous one because it is independent of the plane you like to fly.

3 - Give twice the perks per kill to the outnumbered players. Well, actually, people dont use perk points, so this option has no sense.

4 - Regulate the population of each country so players cant join a countrie that actually outnumbers anyother one by more than 15%.

5 - Enable V1 and V2 for outnumbered countrie. Well, we dont have these weapons yet ...

6 - Enable a "surrender poll" option for each countrie when there are only four or less bases.

7 - Summon the "Super Rambo" unit working for the outnumbered countrie. This infantry unit is autonomous (AI controlled), extremely agressive, armed with stingers, tows, grenades, M60, a turbolaser in the nose and a long range radar as a hat. It also cries all the time scaring every enemy nearby and has a pinkie jeep for displacements ;)

Not sure what time you were on Mandoble, but last night 10pm EST Rooks numbers were right up there and they were going hard.  Knights also had Bish tied up down south.

Perhaps the rooks need to spread out a bit.  They fly in hordes of 20 or more and it's the longest tard train you ever saw:)
