Im trying to find the logic behind this.

Bishops 37 bases
Knights 25 bases
Rooks 5 bases

Why would knights attack rooks under these circumstances?

Reset = 70 pek points to every memeber of the winning country.  That's almost half a 262....

Also if it's a terrain you hate it means getting rid of it :)

We have played this map for less 3 days, we were on baltic for what seemed a month..

Yea we really need a terrain change back to baltic for another month.

Good idea knights

Also, Amon, hit the history books, going back probably to when man first stood erected, its human nature to take the path of least resistence.  Not condemning nor condoning, just telling ya like it is. Main arena, to me, is practice for the events we have in AH.Thats where AH (and any online sim for that matter) really shines.

~Make for easy kills
~Reset map (Dislike of isles by some)
~disfavoring going against a horde of Bish

Many, many reasons people do this...I know for a fact that the path of least resistence is a human trait.  I was not on last night, but I can assure you when Knits were "in the bucket" for a solid 2 months, we witnessed very few fights between the bish and rook, only to see both attack us when we had 10 or less fields.

Your a really smart guy Rip, will you learnt me?

I thought it would be easier to fight the strongest resistance? doh! what have i been thinking!?

Maybe i havent "fully erected"

You should really look in to having a conversation with out belittling the person your speaking with, ecspecialy when it is un warrented.
