An idea for numerical balance in the MA ...

[eskimo2]

There have been lots of threads lately about numbers imbalance in the MA.

I don't know why I care, because I now live in the CT...
But, here is a solution (with some obvious problems, I.E. country loyalty) that would most likely create a numerical country balance in the MA.

How about if after a reset, as players log in, they are automatically assigned to the country with the lowest numbers.
The one exception being that the first player of any given squad to log in determines the country for his entire squad so they are not split up...  I.E.  If you were the second member of your squad to log in, and the numbers were 175, 150, 150, and the first member of your squad to log in was assigned to the country that now has 175 players, you would be assigned to that country as well, even if he had already logged out.

I prefer Power Ups though.  

I like the one from the game 1942 that puts a wingman on either side of you... and the ones that change your gunfire pattern from single shot straight ahead to a shotgun-style wide spray with enemy-seeking rockets.  Yeeeha!!
