Which team is the least competent?
« on: September 09, 2002, 02:21:01 PM »
While it seems Knights are easier to kill one on one. the Bishops definately get my vote for least competent team overall.  They are, however, smart enough to know that they suck.  Bish motto "Numbers... never leave home without them".

Depends on the time of day.


I don't know where bishops stand, but, my k/d ratio against knights is MUCH higher than against rooks.  Rooks seem to have the best pilots overall, since they are so often outnumbered, all the newer pilots have switched to bish or knights.

Knights and bishops right now seem to be basicly the same thing, but at different times.  Both rely largely on numbers and momentum, and seem to lack overall skill.

That was my answer before I even opened up the message thread! :D

I thought it was funny how Jerry Jones was up in the luxury box in the first half, but was down on the sidelines at the start of the second half.  Every time a play was blown, the camera would zoom in on him and he was pacing the lines, looking around as if he was looking for a player or coach to give commands to.  Coach Campo's job is to get the team conditioned to play, because Jerry is just itching to play head coach himself.

What? No mention of the Nits inflated numbers that happen during the weekend days? Hell, I've seen their numbers go up to 175+ damn near every weekend for the past few months.

As for which side is easier to kill, that's hard to say because, ultimitaly, it's the pilot and not his chess piece that does the fighting, there's seals in every country as well as good sitcks.

If you're talking about who does best winning resets, who friggin cares is my opinion. I'd much rather log on to an arena that has sides even as far as fields and pilots than to log on and see the gang raping that happens when the reset is near. The perk points don't matter to me one bit. Fun and somewhat fair fights are the attraction to AH for me.
 The land grab is there to give the people that get bored with AtoA combat, or for those who don't want to or can't exell in it something to do that's fun for them IMO.

YMMV as always.

I haven't seen Knits 1 on 1 in a couple of weeks.  An awful lot of Knits around it seems, often more than the other two countries combined.  Often they are too the point of being simply overwhelming simply through numbers.

widewing has 44 kills and has been killed 3 times against the Bishops.

widewing has 92 kills and has been killed 5 times against the Knights.

They both stink...:D :D :D :D :D

Seriously, I doubt that there is any significant differences between any of them. I've seen the Rooks play about as bad as one can imagine. If my squad moved to another country, I'd be content knowing that I'd be flying in good company.

My regards,

No, when I switched over to the Rooks for a couple days, I fought the Knights.  I'm typically flying by myself, usually not right with a wingman.  I noticed that Knights tend to fight.  Bish tend to run, unless they have numbers.  All day today and all night last night, I was flying around fighting Bishops.  They WILL NOT FIGHT unless they have numbers.  Doesn't matter what the tactical situation is, they refuse to fight unless they've got numbers.  

Hell, one pathetic bastard in an La7 last night left his teammate to die, because once another Knight joined in it wasnt 2 on 1 anymore.  Can't even count the number of times I've had one 'brave' (well, for a Bish anyway) pilot in an La7 or Dora, or Tiffie, or P51 (or any fast plane really), try to bounce me, and then take off for the nearest ack once he realizes he isn't good enough to kill me.  And I mean flat out running like a squeak, not 'extending'.  People who are 'extending' will turn around once they've got some seperation to work with, chickenshits in La7s won't turn around until two or three friendlies arrive.

Of all the asinine topics I have read in this forum, this has to be one of the worst.  Why?  Well think about it.  People switch sides.  Therefore, how can one side be any worse or better than the other?  I have been rook, bish and knit.  All three have their share of gangbangers, cherry pickers, excellent piots, horrible pilots, chicken toejams, insane pilots, vulchers, chute killers, tards, dweebs, good guys, bad guys, generals, followers, quiet guys that kill everything, loud guys that kill everything, luft tards, allied potatos, niki pilots, spit pilots, la7 pilots, freaks, geeks, morons, smart people, stupid people, and everything else you can think of.

So, I really don't know how the hell you can say one side is better than others.  All three suck.

Having caught a couple of episodes of "Hard Knocks," I must concur it is the cowboys.  As long as The Joker is running the team it's going nowhere fast.

People switch sides


Well I don't. I've tried but the pagen ceremonial rights of the Bish are just a bit much..if not illegal..

And having on multiple times trying to have a conversation with a rook, with the usual answer being "yea dude" followed by wiping the spittle from his chin, I just fly knight.

Informational note: Widewings COMPLETE breakdown on his score is available to everyone on the Aces High scorepages.

Just in case that little tidbit got you wanting more.......

I'm going to print it..
