LOL Sixpence...!
I know EXACTLY where you're coming from
I'm gettin' Tigers for 17 points!

Now I LIKE being a Knight!
The perk vehicle fire sale helps take the sting out of constantly getting smacked down.

The tards jump ship when they start to lose. Any country which has a large lead ends up with 60+ outsiders.

A RJO Squad is any squad that participates in Rook Joint Operations, Thus the name RJO.

We have a Core Group that has been doing these Joint Ops for quite along time now, and we have new squads joining in as time clicks on.

We basicly work the majority of the country as a team for a night.

The RJO was born out of Joint Ops that the CAF, Nightmares and others used to do joint ops back in B-land in AW. When The CAF and NightMares made the Permanete move to AH, We linked up and started doing Ops together. We grabbed other squads we knew and formed larger ops. It just began to grow, until the list of squads has gotten quite large.

There is no Leader of the RJO, But BFD, GhostDancer and Myself have been instrumental in its creation and continue to keep it loosely organised. We encourage all our squads to step up and take the lead for a night. Its pretty awsome what a small squad of a handful of guys can do when in command of a couple hundred pilots.

If you have more questions, feel free to direct them to Ghostdancer (GhstDncr), Dawg (BFD) or Myself (GrimmCAF)

Well VF-17 had started flying in Rook land back in December and then I moved us back into Knight land where things were comfortable and squadrons were known.

I will say that my first extended time in Rook land was nice to see a good bunch of coordination between the various squadrons. I can also say that VF-17 will be back in Rook land again in the not to distant future both as an aggressor and as friendly. But that last part usually will not happen until the Rooks are on the way out as a "popular" country to fly for in the MA.

With Me262s at 55 perks and Tigers at 15 perks last night, I don't care how many Rookies there now are, I say bring on some more there aren't enough! Hell, I hope this population boom hits the Bishops as well, maybe it will drive the Me262 cost down even more.

Ack-Ack

hehehe....seems that this kind of post always happens on Mondays...

Sunday is the day when all the Rooks wifes are in either a good and giving mood or they just let us fly to keep us outa their hair.

I gaff tape < 200mph tape, NOT duct tape > my wife to a chair and make her watch football while I'm flying on Sundays...I let her up to get me beer and munchies when needed but getting killed because of her need for a 'personal comfort' break is crossing the line!

even though the perk multiplier makes it hard for us rooks to get those uber-262's i still LOVE the way its working!

a huge <<>> to HiTech and the HTC staff for coming up with this 1.!!!

unlike posts in the bast about getting "gang-banged" it has become a "please keep your countries #'s high" it is truly a reversal from what it was.

i hope you all notice how good this is working and give credit to HTC for doing a great thing for the Main arena.

I actually fly perk planes now. It's a wierd psychological bug I have about "spending" perks, LOL. Like I worked for them in the first place, or I could spend them on the mortgage or something. Yet a 20 pt Spit 14 or tempest and it's time to fly.

I am intrigued. The Shills don't really have a squad night other than TOD and whatever we throw together in the MA after our glorious TOD victories (or ignominious defeat, followed by much gnashing of teeth and thirsting for the blood of our enemies).

On any given weeknight, there's usually 2 or 3 Shills logged on, doing their own thing, getting some practice in for TOD or whatnot.

RJO might be something worth considering. Let me get back to you on that, assuming you're looking for pilots.
