The check is in the mail

Played for rooks, then joined knights with my dad "Suda" to find a squad, which found me :D then for various reason including MA balance and the good, friendly ;) reputation the rooks had, whole squad went rook, leaving the knights for the first time ever.

Rarely ever got check sixes with knights, get a few with rooks...wondering how the bishops do on check sixes.  Is it a second nature?  

I've heard the argument "always check your six then you needn't worry about it," which is valid, but tough when you are really focused on your nearest target/angles/ammo/speed blah blah blah

Anyway, guess this is an inquiry into the check six "practices" of all of the countries, and a genuine plea for the otherwise flawless rooks :p to make it as natural as you can; I don't know how others feel (guess we'll soon find out) but I appreciate every single check six call (even when the nme is at my 12 :)  )

I've been a Bish since Beta.

Sometimes you get a six call sometimes you don't. When the pre-recorded call was new, everybody used it.

Now that we have AH Vox, six call I get are mostly those. Seems not that many use the standard call. Of course, with all the guys in a sector in the middle of a furball, it's easy to miss a six call with all the talking about important stuff like bass fishing and fast cars and stuff. ;)

I seriously doubt the Bish are much different than any other country in this aspect.
