Monday at 7-8 pm PST the status of game was
Bishops 32.5%
Knights 100% 30% Bish 5% Rook
Rooks 95% 37.5 Bish
I think this should qualify for a cease fire with no perk points awarded when a country goes under 40% and their oppenents are below 15% of other team captures.I beleive this would increase tactical play over the pile it on when they are down, game play we are seeing now.

-1 I don't think this will stop any pile-it-on attacks of any country. You've added a consequence of no perks for it, but I'd say most people could care less about winning twenty-five free perks.
-
Whether its real or perceived, Bish have a reputation for rolling maps and piling on. As a Knight, I see many times when Rook bases are where efforts should be focused if trying to win the war, but players stay on the Bish front to deliver a reckoning. :D
Plenty of Knights could care less about real estate or winning the war. I like the battles, but usually don't know or care about the war status other than noticing who has more bases when the map is zoomed out.

Well bish did deliver unto us the vTwits, alchies, and Jokes, and Ghi. For better and worse, their "Win teh wArz!!!!" Reputation is somewhat deserved.
You reap what you sow, and right now the bish seem to be reaping a lot of hate.

All of you speak like you can't change countries or something :P.

Now this gets interesting. :banana:

Let the crook/gnats pile on. If they have to double team bish -- so be it. It's the highest compliment they can give -- to have to double team us to be happy. Sad though. Gnats used to be smart instead of being stooges to the crooks...who turn on them every time they want to get bases -- and like an abused spouse -- nits keep on going back with open arms after being turned on. But that 's no biggie. If two sides have to team up against the other let it happen.
I'd rather have it that crooks & gnats double team us...it speaks volumes for what side is the real power in the game.
If players are offended by base taking squads and base taking mission planners then give me your address so I can send you a semi load of Kleenex. You can have a valid gripe the day you either pay everyone else's sub or buy Dale out and you own the game.

Sorry, but you have a reputation for smash and grab missions with half the pilots lawn darting.
Not saying it necessarily reflects on you as a person, but as with the bish, your reputation isn't entirely undeserved.
That's how you have fun, and that's fine. But prepare to be laughed at by everyone that doesn't like hordes or the bishops every time you make a mistake. Its just the nature of the game you're playing.
-
Man the Bish sure do cry the loudest when they are on the receiving end of their own tactics. Perhaps we/they should bookmark this thread for the next time the shoe is on the other foot.
-
Each side is always more unfairly being ganged upon than the two others. Which, as we all know, do never fight each other. :old:
-
All I was doing was pointing out what was going on Monday night. If something is wrong and your argument is everybody does it that doesn't make it valid.
I get most of my fighter kills when we are being hoarded. I try to go with when life gives you lemons make lemonade!
I do believe that once both opponents have over 60% of your existing fields that the flight should be end! :banana:
It drives me nuts to see that were within two fields for a win and see my teammates continue to attack and opponent when we have the necessary fields to win.
-
Knights own 30% of bish basses, that's the funniest thing I've heard all week!
:rofl :rofl :rofl
-
My side loses most every map, but the last thing I want is any incentive for Rooks or Bish to stop fighting us.

hahaha, no team HAS to pile on the bish. youre not that important. it boils down to the bish reaping what you sow. you crybabies never whine when you are piling on, but instantly whine as soon as you cant megahorde 24 7.

You can apply this to every country in AH.

That's the beauty of the 3 country system. :lol

That bothers me also. I tend to look at the country status and see if an enemy has a greater # of players and that country to me is the bigger threat.
Last night the knights had more players and it was the Rooks who lost 30% territory to both enemies so you picked a snapshot of a particular moment in time.
-

yep, true. and also, rooks had a megahorde last night. we arent innocent of hording. i hate hordes, no matter who does it, bc i have FR issues. so i dont do well in hordes.

Yeah, I'd say the knights actually have the best pilots on average. They just seem to draw the furballers for some reason.
Bish tend to have the worst pilots on average. Its not that they inherently suck (usually :neener:), just that their emphasis on base taking and horde combat has caused their individual combat skills to atrophy.

A cease fire would be worse for the ganged country - nobody to fight.
When stuff like this happens, it sure helps make a case for a two sided war with a greatly reduced side switch time. :)

the ceasefire would be stopping of hostilities and moving to the next map and no perk points awarded.
Thank you for the screen shot!

Oh I see where you were headed now. Wouldn't effect me at all. There are two things that I notice regarding a map changing:
1. When a war is won near bed time, it triggers folks to log off.
2. When an unpopular map is up a long time, players get pissy.
Whatever fixes one would probably increase the other.

That's got to be about the saddest, most pathetic thing I've read in a long time!

70 going on 13 years old, sounds like. You sound like a kid raging at the xbox about how much the other guys suck!

I'm not seeing how this makes a better game.

Look at this way.... The Bishops don't have to go far to find a good fight.....
-
I have been playing for a little over 2 years now and that is the first time I have EVER seen the bish below 60%, Knights on the other hand is a ......map by map thing :D..... please by all means gang the Knights, I cant count how many times I asked on 200 to drive us back to the 3 or 4 bases that cant be taken that way we dont have far to go for a fight. :pray :devil
-
OMG! Sometime the idiocy that comes out of people.
This thread makes me feel embarrassed.
What ever picture/gif I post wont be have big enough face palm.
-

That's the way knights and I'm sure rooks look at it when, they are getting piled. I say lets pile on the bish until they learn to enjoy finding fights all over the place. Something for everyone when getting piled on, base defense furball, gv action, useful bomber missions to drop ords, and barracks, only reason to whine about it is if you only enjoy steam rolling fields and I guess in that case your SoL

As you first stated only one country needs to be below 40% for a win and a map change. So now, we don't have to worry about even touching the other? :headscratch:
This could make map winning a bit easy and obviously will change the current system. :old:
Now, for example, the Bish could ignore the Knights who are putting up fierce defense, and attack the Rooks who are defending little to none. It has happened many times where a country has lost 60% of their bases to the other countries, as this can't be all too hard, specifically on small maps.

God I wish I was home with my gaming laptop. Figures, I'm on the road in a hotel and missing all the fun.

That is one of the benefits of switching sides every now and then. You get to see the 'others' perspective. Which was funny for me when I did it, because it seemed like I hadn't changed sides at all. Same complaints of ENY, same complaints of 2 v 1 or "hoards" and same complaints of AFKers and the usual "forbidden ACM" stuffz.

The point I'm trying to make is no perks awarded, no win is given we just move on to the next map! If you look at the posted screen shot you will see that the Knights and Rooks were not fighting.
If your point is to" kick them while they're down" and not going for a tactical win by all means let's keep the system the way it is!

Who cares i like when bish are getting rolled i like cheap 262s :D
-
Amen. Been flying deuces almost exclusively the last month. I am personally appreciative. :aok
-
Caldera's screenshot shows the bish had most in flight....why you no take those bases back? :devil
-
I'll agree to the cease fire wish if the country looking for it get -100 perk points in each category as their humiliation payment.
On the other hand this could lead to more bitterness in the future and start another map on the wrong moral compass leading to more tales of woe. :D

I believe that Bruv119 is on to something here. The two of the offending countries that have the primary country down below 40% and have only have 5% of one country should be penalized 100 perk points. This would hopefully stop the gang-bang and force them to fight between themselves!

I'm pretty sure you missed Bruv's point completely. He was not saying the offending countries get penalized. He was saying the losing country throwing up the white flag be penalized for being a bunch of pansies. At least that is the way I am reading it. :uhoh

That's the way I read it also Silver :lol
