CT is great, just not as many players as in the MA or I would have stayed in the CT more often. Ma is a more target rich environment so its more fun in that way.

Thursday nights usually draw the most numbers ASTAC. Try one night if you can. Glad you enjoyed yourself.

:rolleyes:

Um hmm.  With the new version of AH out, we lost a lot to the MA.   When the excitement of the new engine dies down a little, we can expect our numbers to climb back up again. There is usually anywhere from 20-50 players in the CT in the evenings.

Heh... been there, had that happen too.

It was the Battle of Britain setup... LW had fewer numbers so I jumped sides to even things a little.  Launch from a base two sectors away and start to climb.  The minute my dar bar came up I watched the movement toward me.  It was priceless :lol

Never the less, I continued forward looking for a good fight... what I found were two 20k Hurricanes and a Spit so desparate for a kill they fell all over themselves diving down.  Of course, I died and relaunched... I MIGHT have made 4K before we were in the same 3-on-1.  Final launch of the night was the one where I was vulched.  I sat in the tower and laughed as they shot the ack down so they could continue unhindered.

Felt like the MA to me except the map was different :rofl  so I logged.

I WILL say this is not always the case.  I've seen a few occasions where a 1-on-1 fight was left alone and in those cases (even in losing) I will thank the observer for holding back.  It really depends on who is in the arena.
