Heh, threads like this remind me of flying for the Knits during the beta days, when sometimes the entire country would wing up into a 5-plane formation and take on the rook/bish masses.
I hardly ever see as large a difference in numbers as the one in your pic, 2late. The teams are pretty balanced when I log in. The exception to this is when a country is about to be reset, of course.
Upon thinking about it, I guess the rooks have been in that situation the most, lately. But I wonder why you give up and log when you realize you don't have dar? One of the most rewarding experiences in this game is launching a counter-attack and averting a sure defeat, IMO.
If a rook pilot immediately logs when they see that dar is out, then I consider them to be conceding the war. What they might not know is that 10 other rooks are doing the same thing, essentially robbing their own country of a potential change in momentum.
Perhaps the knits and bish bomb the rook hq so often because they know the rooks will roll over and play dead soon after?
Please don't flame me, I'm just playing the devil's advocate.
