for almost 3 weeks now you've been doing the same thing on TRINITY....which is too fight ONLY bishops.
I like TRINITY...she's beautiful....but NOT for 3 WEEKS.
I will give ya all free kills if ya want....I DON'T CARE...please try different TACTICS.
:D

Why? We usually get more perks out of clubbing Bish than we do clubbing Knights, though lately I've been busy clubbing Knights because they've managed to have numbers up. I prefer to fight on even or outnumbered terms.
-
We'll give it a serious thought, if you turn over all your sheep to us.

rgr dodger......take em all.....
didn't want to whine about this but it is getting old....hmmm repetitive.
most of squaddies agree or say the same....I don't mind fighting outnumbered blablabla.....but now we just taking back the same old bases the rooks...or nits took from us:(
-
I usely don't know who I'm fighting. The 2 color thing does help. And the icons are too small to make it plain. I just look at where I want to go and go there. Who ever owns it doesn't make a differance.

Come on knights & rooks oh PLEASE lets work together & BURY Bishops for ohhh say a month or 4. We can take turns on who wins reset so we ALL get some points.
Tired of logging on to find Bishops outnumber BOTH knights & rooks

Ya last time trinity was up knights had the s leg and bish rooks kept banging us for over three weeks and we only had 20 bases most of the time. Glad you know how it feels now! Only you have allmost the whole leg so quit whining next time I hope rooks get that s leg so they know what its like!
TTThhhhhppppptttttt!!!

Rooks? What is rooks?
-
rook:
1. An Old World bird (Corvus frugilegus) that resembles the North American crow and nests in colonies near the tops of trees.
2. A swindler or cheat, especially at games.
tr.v. rooked, rook·ing, rooks
To swindle; cheat: Customers are afraid of being rooked by unscrupulous vendors.
-
I agree as a Rook...
We should stop fighting the bishops and the Knights.. if they do the same.
We could have a complete cease fire in the MA. Noone shoting at anyone else. We could fly around without the worry of being shot down. In fact we could all meet in Tank town in Man Icon and hold hands, then sing we are the world.
Yeah... boy would that be exciting ;)
Lets face it... its always a two front war.
As long as the MA exists, The Knights and Rooks will fight bishops. Same holds true for the Rooks, They will always have to fight Knights and bishops. To expect anything else is silly.
Sometimes you get the brunt of both enemies, sometimes not. ::Shrug:: its just the nature of the Beast....
-
BTW...
nice definitions of Rook. :)
Thats right... Give a Rook a chance, He will steal your base, steal a reset, or cheat you out of that kill you wanted. We will even work together to capture bases or hurt the enemy, very unfair to our opponets.
We even go so far, we often Steal kills from other Rooks.
Definately Rooks should not be trusted ;)
-
i don't trust rooks and bishops wear funny hats.
but, knights ride on horses and maidens love them, kool
-
a Bish. reduced to whining about numbers?
:confused:
-
lmfao......
please get a life slo

SLO, it seems to be the case that no matter who is the SOUTHERN COUNTRY, they will be the ones who get beat up. The south is the "easiest" to capture, albeit it still isn't very easy. Rooks had the south until the tour changed, and rooks were taking the beating.
The entrances into eachothers "slices" for the west and northern country are unfriendly and spaced quite far apart. From either side to the south seems fairly quick and painless. Live with it; it's like the southern country on mindanao.
-
SLO, have you seen the size of the sheep that the Bishop raise?
Maybe if Rooks Cornfead their Sheep, we might just take a peek....
Until they get bigger than this
<------------------------------------
its just not tempting....LOL
-
Jeez, all this time I thought it was the BishNit alliance against the Rooks :confused:
-
I TRY to club Knits, honest I do, but those damn Bish just keep flying in front of me!

Rooks have had the southeast corner before. One of the problems with the Trinity map is that the two northern countries have a very limited front with each other. However, both have broad fronts on the southern country.
I also feel that maps ought to rotate after one week, just to stimulate the game, which gets bogged down when the same map runs for days unending.

SLO so far on trinity i killed 7 bish
148 nit :D
Happy !!!!
-
I propose we just continue down this path, Crush the bishes and change maps. Oh wait, I just woke up!
-
sorry but its pointless posting this sort of pap! :)
#1 whatever country you are on you will undoubtedly at some stage feel like both other countries are ganging you
#2 not even at a guess 40% of AH players, probably much less, actually ever read this not to mention those that actually care even if they do.
#3 Everyone was getting sick of bish winning so much and naturally want to make bish suffer :D
#4 We have all had it happen to us, im knit and a few weeks ago we had a good solid month of being ganged.everytime i logged on we were with the least bases on defence.
#5 You are a bishop and therefore anything you say is DEVIL-SPEAK
#6 BURN THE WITCH BISH
#7 which bish?
#8 ANY OF THEM :)

Maybe the numbers being even are the issue. Everybody is fighting on all fronts, but nobody has the advantage. Notice how the frontlines haven't changed much on Trinity lately?

this is what I was tryin to say.....thx widewing
BTW you mindless people who think that its only the SOUTHERN country who gets attacked are full of it.....
last time on trinity we bish where on the EASTERN side....
yes most bishops where attacking the mindless south......
but my squad and some others whacked the WEST constantly....
even pushed em back almost to the last base west.....
TACTICS.....mindlessly attacking the south tactics is getting boring and endless and repetitive....I don't give a rats A** who is south....Its for people to change tactics...not do the same thing EVERYDAY.

I have been playing Aces High for some 8 or 9 months now and have made some general observations with regard to the player/country distribution.
When I first joined I went Rooks automatically because most of my friends from AWFR and specifically Bz in AWFR were Rooks. Now, at that time (about August or September of last year), Rooks were MAJORLY outnumbered by both countries, especially Bishops at all times of the day or night. In fact, during my first month several squadrons who were Rooks originally, left to join Bishops, presumably because they couldn't hack being in the fying pan 24/7. Alot of individuals did this as well. So, Bishops are generally comprised of alot of individuals who I call, Fair Weather Pilots, those who only like to play if their side is in a dominant position of advantage. Whereas those who had the inner intestinal fortitude to stick it out on Rooks are a different breed altogether. Next time the tide starts to turn against the Bishops notice how they further exacerbate their plight by either logging off or switching countries, just watching the roster illustrates this point perfectly.
As the arena stands today, not much has changed, Sunday nights are big squad nights for Knights and Rooks, this is generally the ONLY time Knights or Rooks have a numerical advantage over the Bishops. Pretty much any other time Bishops have anywhere from a 20% to 50% numerical advantage over either of the other two teams. While this makes for great vulching and easy capture of relatively undefended bases by Bishops, it has a profound effect on the psychology of the arena. It makes alot of people on Knights and Rooks drool profusely at any and every opportunity to club the Bishops like baby seals (very apt anology).
So, while Slowhand (weren't you Rooks last August !?!?) has a valid point, there is more to the current state of affairs than meets the eye. The fact that Bishops are often the flavor of the day is due mostly to the fact that their team is so large it usually has enough people to occupy the forces of both of the other teams combined. Being on Trinity map is a factor also. Last camp we spent three solid weeks on Trinity map, while it is a good map, we are accustomed to changes of scenery on a far more regular basis. So, alot of this perceived double teaming is really just an unsynchronized and unconscious effort to follow through on situations where the map could be reset in a reasonable length of time.
I recommend pushing for term limits on the maps, this would minimize the tendency of two teams hammering down the lower base count team into submission just to force a reset day after day on the larger maps (pizza and trinity at this point) out of boredom and/or frustration.

Zazen,
Thats what was what it was like to me as Bz also, and It carried over the Rooks.
Fighting the tuff fight only makes you stronger and a better pilot. Everyone knows the Rooks pilots are a cut above the rest.
Amen Brother! ;)

YEA!

So quit taking them back and it will soon be over :D
-
frugilegus?
whoops it means they flock together :)
-
Well when I log on, I scan the map looking for a good CV fight, or at the very least an even up contest that I can fly too before my daughter finishes collage.
If I'm lucky and I find one, I shoot at the red guys..
-
I will do what ever it takes to stay on the best map in the rotation. :D I even liked it when we Knights were in the south country and were getting pounded for what seemed like two weeks. Wait till you go without radar for two weeks, then I will listen to your complaints.
-
exactly tracerx..All i did for a week was kill barraks..
frikn WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I like killling barraks...makes the winning country useless..just wish more of our guys did this..we would never lose
I LOVE TRINITY!!
Salute

Umm..Slo...WHAT COLOR is the sky in your world? Every time I log on (typically, prome time EST...if thats where i'm working that week) Rooks have like 135...Nits 150...Bish 165...unless big squad nights throw off %'s...thats pretty typical. Now i'm sure it must SEEEEMMM to a Bishop, when they don't win a reset every couple days or so..that a conspiracy is going on....mebbe THIS is what AH would look like when 2 countries dont gang the livin watermelon out of the 3rd?...Fear not...Bish will win eventually..and i'll keep dyin at 145, heeh
