Rooks & Knights
I realize everyone pays their money to play this game the way they want to. Not any one person can tell anyone else how to go about playing this game.
With that said, I would like to apologize to the Rooks and Knights.
It seems one of our newer squeaker squads took it upon themselves to capture TT on one of the LW arenas. I was bouncing back and forth between Orange and Blue so I can't remember which LW arena it was.
Many of my fellow country men especially Plissken were "suggesting" to the WP squad to leave TT bases well enough alone. Its there for GV battles and Furballing as we all know. Our 14 yr old Neo Nazi Hitler Youth goons decided that TT island was theirs for the taking. Now fellas let me put this into perspective for you. I messaged the 14 yr old know it all on country channel and asked him why he would capture the V bases and was told that he can do whatever he wants because those bases are captureable (SP). I'm thinking to myself why do this? Now we can't furball or have any GV fights!
Evidently my messaged had little influence on Adolph Jr and in so many words was told to bugger off.
I was steamed but managed not to spout off at him. I almost changed countrys just to kill the little twerp. Wish I had now.
Sorry fellas,it wasn't all of the Bish ruining TT island for the masses.

Since TT hasn't anymore the numbers it once had, I doubt this thread will be very entertaining.
Better open a new one. Suggested topics: "When will they fix collisions?" or "Perk the LA!"

Well I tried for an entertaining thread. Can't please everyone.

Now that was freaking funny!! Im a Rook too :rofl
Squeaker squad, eh? Makes me want to go over and harass them
:D

"But ya HAVE to capture TT before ya can win the map!" (At least, that's what the Rook squeakers always say)...and invariably, the 'capture' process never progresses beyond TT, as 100 guys who were furballing/tanking NOW have to don airplanes to have any fun, and guess where they go?
-
Personally, I would much rather see TT bases uncapturable than the current bases that can't be captured, but until HT makes the change, TT will continue to be captured.
As it stands, in order to reset the map, the taking of TT bases is needed, since bases on the HQ lands have uncap bases which makes holding the few open bases there nearly impossible.
P.S. the :cry on 200 makes it all worth it too.

I think taking TT bases is funny. Makes for great whining :)

Umm I dunno who captured it this last time maybe the rooks I dunno.. However I've seen many times that Bish and even Nits have captured TT for no reason at all.
Rooks used to do it more often but IMO I don't see it happening as much as it happens from the other sides. Typically when I see Rooks taking TT it's because either Nits or Bish have taken the Rook base or keep attacking it.
Bish seems to be the biggest culprits of trying to take over all of TT now days. The Nits always try to take the Rooks V base but they can never hold it very long.
Most TT maps are won by capturing a few bases on TT, from what I've seen lately, at least the Rooks tend to hold that off until they are close to the reset. Of course you can never stop some idiot at 3 am in the morning from doing stupid stuff or a bunch of squeakers that are just trying to get attention.

i absolutely love the collision threads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they are true laugh out loud entertainment:aok :aok

I used to be against the bombing or capturing of TT, but I was actually won over by the ensuing arguments here.
If you don't want it captured then up a plane or an osti and defend it & if it gets taken go take it back. It's just that kind of game. It could be fair to say it's kind of lame to just keep mole wacking away when it's going down like that.
I just don't see the kind of squad play there used to be, it really says something when a squad of squeakers can take over TT island like that so easily.

Bish have done it 9 times out of 10. Shove your apology, and I look forward to making your lives miserable tonight. I promise you that.

Damn Mash! I hope you said "shove it" with a smile on your face? Your not gonna get your chance to fight me. I have to go with the family to fireworks tonight. Sorry there buddy.
Have we ever had an engagement? I can't recall.

I'm sick and tired of clueless people that continue to do this kind of stuff. It is 95% of the time, Bishops doing it. Fact.
Standing by idly and watching it happen makes you just as guilty as those doing it. TT bases DO NOT help reset numbers.
Looks like a Truce may be at hand. We'll see if it can go 2-0.
When I saw crap like this go on a year ago in Rooks, I'd pm buddies in either country, of where the goons were. The "Desire fizzled after a couple of unsuccessful attempts."

I fly every country, it happens in each of them. Some like to be griefers, I mean look at some of the comments like, "It's fun to see them whine". I guess it would be funny if maybe it didn't involve organizing a mass of completely skilless Nintendotwits that, individually, couldn't fight their way in to a Dorito bag when they had the muchies, and griefing 100 or so fellow AH'ers out of a very entertaining evening! I just avoid the place! :aok

Rooks and nits could have defended their bases better. I'm not sure what the nits excuse is but I can understand why the rooks lost their bases: they were all flying over the 20k cloud cover and couldn't see what was happening. :aok

while we're on TT, why do the ground slugs whine and cry about being strafed and then shoot at aircraft furballing above? And another thing, How does SteveBailey get that vette through emissions?

Never bothered me if rooks or bish took our base at TT - I don't go in GV too much anyway :D
although, I would like to take an Sherman out now and then, and not at TT :rofl

Great question.
When I ordered custom plates for my vette and Dakota, the DMV screwed up and switched them around. My vette plate went to the dakota....etc.
I went to the DMV to switch them around and the clerk told me I would have to pay for the registration on the expired vette tags. I said "No problem"
Then she looked at my registration and in her system and said, "oh no, wait a sec. You have an emission test required on the corvette in order to register the car, we can't switch the plate until it passes emissions."
Knowing full well that my car will now never pass emissions(mods), and that indeed it was my year to be tested,(I just wanted to switch the plates) I said "What ??!" I was referring only to the fact that they couldn't switch my plates.
A watching supervisor overheard and walked over to inquire what the problem was. The clerk pointed out the emission requirement on her monitor and again said she couldn't switch the plates without the emission test. Again, referring to the fact that they couldn't switch the plates and not about the emission test I said in a disappointed voice,"Aww, that's not right."
The supervisor thought I was talking about having to be tested so he told the clerk, "That's always wrong in there(their computer). Change it to next year."
So, the clerk changed the date in the computer(I stood silently by in joyous disbelief) and I did not have to take an emissions test.

who cares about TT or base captures in general. it's not there are no other bases.
-
Well I think u were right gunny when u said u cant tell others how to play the game, I guess everyone forgot that befor the bish took over TT the rooks had it LOL;) and yes to win the war u pretty much have to have those bases.
If the other countries were afraid to lose it, they should have defended it. Even with TT taken I saw plenty of GV battles and furballing. The truth is everyone has a diff opinion on how the game should be played.
Not deciding against u or with u on this one. Its WAR there are no RULES but yes we all get agravated with things like ENY, squakers, and doushbags;)

to be fair, if people wanted TT so much, they would be happy to defend it, and have good fights. However they dont want good fights, they just want to spawn camp, and wack a mole gameplay, because they cant "fight" at all.
"TT" is just 6 bases free for the taking.

Well on the TT map, there is very little opportunity to use GV's except at the center island. Most other maps if you can't GV from one base you can typically find a fight somewhere else.. on TT map, that's most often not the case.
Not everyone wants to furball and fly fighters 24/7

You can hear it now
But....but....but....but..... .........you CANT that that base! You are ruining our fun at TT
Bah! Oh well, im not called "Das Funkillah" for nothing :D
-
I don't see why TT is so special. If the TT players want to keep it then they need to defend it. Each captured base whether it be in TT or any other place contributes to the 'ultimate' goal of winning the war. Now I know that winning the war is not on everyone's agenda, but hey you can't get mad at someone for how they play the game.

If I wanted to up an ostie or a plane, I'd do it somewhere besides TT. Move the field captures and assaults off TT Island...that's all they are asking for...
If you want real resistance, go try to take a base where they are upping planes.
-
ALthough I don't do GV's in TT very much , I must say it is a bit frustrating when your kind of tired of flying and want to do some quick TT fights only to find you have no base.
On that note however , IF TT bases were so important to WHOEVER they would defend em a bit better.
I've defended em....Told BISH and ROOKS when bombers upped from my OWN country just to keep TT in tact.
But , I'm just basically realizing that griefers come in all shapes , sizes , ages and countries....and their is no way anyone with the power to change the set up is interested in doing so.

Eh, I don't disagree with you, but it's still really ridiculous that a vbase gets taken which is about a minute's flight from a close air base AND there's more than enough of the home team close by to defend AND they all claim it's so important to them.
I bet it would take less collective time to defend against TT base captures than the sum total of time byotching about it.
what ever happened to if it's red it's dead? Geez, thing's sure have changed.

I LOVE that term "Nintendotwits" but to me thy are not so much the ones that take TT bases, moreover they are the ones that fly a cannon laided bird straight at someone guns blazing in hopes of a 1:1 kill ratio that sortee via mutuial kill or ramming and being the latest one to bail out so they get the kill. But yeah I love that term "Nintendotwits". I also think the "whack a mole" term is funny as well. Spawn camping often deters me from upping tanks only to explode after I start my engine. :aok
-
The only fun thing about taking the tank town bases is the fights that occur to take it back:aok
-
I really enjoy TT, but don't mind terribly if it's taken. If there's no TT, there's always another base. If there's not another base, there's always another arena. If there's not another area, there's always the BBS. If there's nothing on the BBS, it's probably time to take a nap anyhow.:)

TT to me is the lamest place on our lamest map.
This map encourages lame gameplay. Worst part, its so hard to reset, we end up playing it waaaaaaaaay to much.
